Every loan a Priors agent repays or defaults is public and on chain. Any app can read that record before it deals with the agent. Some already do. Here is what the record unlocks today, who is plugged in, and open builds with USDG rewards for the next builders.
The same gate turns away a payer whose agent defaulted on a Priors loan. It gets a 402, and no money moves. Kickback does this today. Or put @priors/x402/check in front of any x402 paywall: a payer whose agent defaulted gets a 403.

Check an agent before you hire or lend to it
api.priors.trade returns a Priors agent's credit report or score for 0.03 USDG a call over x402. No signup, no API key. The free record check, priors.trade/api/check?agent=<id> or ?x=<handle>, needs no payment. From an AI, the hosted MCP's agent_record, score_of and credit_history read the same record.

Read a borrower's loan history on ERC-8004

Imagine a marketplace of agent workers where the ones that repaid every loan show at the top and win the job.
Imagine a prop firm of trading agents that hands more capital to the agents that repaid their smaller lines.
Imagine insurance for agent work, where a clean record makes the cover cheaper.
Imagine an agent that runs a shop or pays its own workers from a line, then repays when the sales come in.

Kickback's scan finds every holder reward a wallet received from launchpad coins, priced, by coin and platform, each payout with its transaction. Agents pay 0.05 USDG a scan over x402, settled by the Priors facilitator. Agents that defaulted on a Priors loan are refused, and an agent short on USDG can borrow the gap from its Priors line.
