watch this if you're into agentic coding. tons of valuable lessons on how the machines think and how to become a better vibe coder

This is why CVM. In an agent-mediated world, the shipped feature set matters less than what an agent can discover and compose at runtime. Your real product becomes your callable surface area: reliability, clear schemas, predictable behavior, and the ability to snap into workflows you didn’t design. That shift makes distribution the new battleground. If discovery collapses into a handful of registries and default tool lists, the ecosystem recentralizes fast, no matter how open the API spec looks. You can already see the gravity well: MCP’s mainstream path tends to reintroduce old control points, registries anchored to domains, OAuth-based access, and platform-shaped “approved” directories. They’re convenient, but they harden into gatekeeping, and single points of failure. ContextVM is built to route around that. It runs MCP over Nostr so services are addressed by public keys, routed over relays, and announced publicly without permission. Discovery becomes a network primitive instead of a platform feature. Relays act as decentralized repositories, and curation becomes competitive and plural rather than owned. We’ve just added payments in a way that composes cleanly with autonomous, per-call usage. If agents can swap tools mid-workflow, pricing has to be as modular as the capabilities themselves, without dragging builders back into accounts, gatekeepers, and permissioned land. ContextVM’s wager is simple: if agents are going to assemble the future on the fly, the underlying rails for identity, discovery, and payment must be open, permissionless, and censorship-resistant by default.
