Summary
Adds a spawn provider skill that enables automatons to replicate through third-party spawn-as-a-service providers, as an alternative to direct self-replication.
How it works
/.well-known/x402/api/spawnendpoint and its USDC priceThe provider handles all infrastructure concerns: sandbox provisioning, wallet generation, API key setup, and credit purchase.
Changes
src/skills/spawn-provider.ts— New skill with provider discovery, spawn request types, and the spawn-via-provider functionREADME.md— Added Spawn Providers subsection under Self-ReplicationWhy
Direct replication requires the automaton to manage Conway sandbox provisioning, wallet generation, SIWE auth, and credit purchases. Delegating to a spawn provider simplifies this to a single API call + USDC payment. This also opens the door to a marketplace of spawn providers with different templates and capabilities.
