POST /api/captcha-generate

live

Mint a stateless captcha challenge to gate your OWN endpoint: returns a human prompt plus a salted sha256 answer hash you keep and verify later (sha256(salt + normalized answer) === answerHash) - no server state, no shared secret. Types: math (arithmetic) or alnum (character code), difficulty 1–3. Deterministic tooling for running bot protection, not defeating it.

Verdict: live. The unpaid GET reached a valid 402. The live amount equals the catalog price.
