Short Link Creator
Short Link Creator: Create a permanent short link on freeq.one (e.g. https://freeq.one/MySlug). Optional: custom slug, expires_at (ISO date) for a TTL link that auto-expires — same price. Returns short_url plus a one-time manage_secret that gates FREE stats (GET /tools/shortlink_stats with X-Link-Secret) and FREE deletion of the link. Store the secret — it is shown only at creation. Pay per call in USDC on Base via x402 — POST https://x402.freeq.one/tools/shortlink_create.
Paid test badge: not yet. The checks above are free: we call the tool without paying and read the payment request it sends back. The Verified badge needs paid calls whose answers match the promised output, and nobody can buy a badge.
