Free Tier

1-day pins are free up to 100 MB per UTC calendar day — link your GitHub account once to unlock.

GitHub acts as identity verification: one GitHub account = one 100 MB/day quota, shared across all your wallets. Your token is used once to confirm your identity and immediately discarded — we never store it.

How to activate (takes 30 seconds):

  1. Ask the agent: "connect my GitHub for the free tier"
  2. A browser tab opens — create a token with the read:user scope
  3. Paste the token back — free tier activates immediately
