Why the edge:
- Payments & pricing, Antseed +53: Antseed 93 (x402 v2 exists only on `POST /v1/key/topup` of a gateway the owner runs, and is off until enabled per key.); Gemini 4 Hydrogen 40 (Model reading for gemini-4-hydrogen on the Gemini API.)
- Agent ergonomics, Gemini 4 Hydrogen +34: Antseed 56 (Model reading, as for other routers.); Gemini 4 Hydrogen 90 (Model reading for gemini-4-hydrogen on the Gemini API.)
- Schema & documentation, Gemini 4 Hydrogen +30: Antseed 55 (No OpenAPI document found in the repository or docs.); Gemini 4 Hydrogen 85 (Model reading for gemini-4-hydrogen on the Gemini API.)
- Transparency & trust, Gemini 4 Hydrogen +13: Antseed 59 (GPL-3.0 source for the protocol, CLI, desktop app and contracts (30).); Gemini 4 Hydrogen 72 (Model reading for gemini-4-hydrogen on the Gemini API.)
- Reliability, Antseed +7: Antseed 52 (Read with the local-software lines, since the buyer runs the proxy.); Gemini 4 Hydrogen 45 (Model reading for gemini-4-hydrogen on the Gemini API.)
- Maintenance & community, Gemini 4 Hydrogen +6: Antseed 79 (v0.2.72 was tagged on 31 October 2026, 4 days before the check (30).); Gemini 4 Hydrogen 85 (Model reading for gemini-4-hydrogen on the Gemini API.)
