How to pay:
1. Call the endpoint with no payment. You get 402 with terms in PAYMENT-REQUIRED.
2. Sign with any x402 client and retry the same GET with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
3. The PDF is generated, the payment settles, and only then is the PDF sent
   (content-type application/pdf) with a PAYMENT-RESPONSE header. If the PDF
   cannot be generated you are not charged.

Example (npm i @x402/fetch @x402/evm viem):

  import { wrapFetchWithPaymentFromConfig } from "@x402/fetch";
  import { ExactEvmScheme } from "@x402/evm";
  import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";
  import { writeFileSync } from "node:fs";

  const account = privateKeyToAccount(process.env.PRIVATE_KEY);
  const pay = wrapFetchWithPaymentFromConfig(fetch, {
    schemes: [{ network: "eip155:8453", client: new ExactEvmScheme(account) }],
  });
  const r = await pay("https://deskidols.vercel.app/api/agent/idol?sku=locked-in");
  writeFileSync("locked-in.pdf", Buffer.from(await r.arrayBuffer()));
