Intake Warden

The Intake Warden is the entry point for all data ingestion in RedQueen. It validates x402 payment authorization for cloud deployments, authenticates VPC tokens for BYOI deployments, assigns a globally unique Stream-UUID (UUID v7, time-ordered) to every payload, and creates the metadata envelope that all downstream agents use for tracking and audit.

Capabilities

• x402 payment validation
• VPC bearer token authentication
• Stream-UUID v7 assignment
• Metadata envelope creation
• Payload size validation (max 512MB)
• Multi-tenant isolation
