For developers

Earn USDC for Claude Code’s “thinking…” word — a clean, clearly-labeled ad slot. One command turns it on. Nothing patches your editor and nothing touches your code or keys.

Start earning

One command installs, registers, and turns the slot on. It asks for a payout wallet the first time — or pass --wallet to skip the prompt. Your wallet is stored server-side; this machine only ever holds an encrypted token.

# install + register + turn the slot on — one command (asks for your wallet)
npx sponsored-code start

# already know it? pass it inline to skip the prompt
npx sponsored-code start --wallet 0xYourWallet

# check status (account · integrity · state) anytime
scode status

Pause or stop

Toggle the slot whenever you want — pausing restores stock Claude Code instantly. The VS Code extension has the same switch: the Sponsored Code panel has a pause/resume toggle and a clearly-labeled status-bar line.

scode off   # pause — restores stock Claude Code
scode on    # resume earning

Get paid

You earn a share of every verified view, denominated in USDC. Earnings batch up and you claim them to your wallet on-chain whenever it’s worth the gas — the payout contract is public, so you can verify every settlement yourself.
