Make HTTP requests with automatic x402 payment support using purl.
Description
This skill enables making HTTP requests to payment-gated APIs using purl, a curl-like CLI tool that automatically handles x402-based payments on EVM and Solana networks.
When to Use This Skill
When an API returns HTTP 402 (Payment Required) and supports the x402 payment protocol, purl can automatically negotiate and execute the payment to access the resource.
