API Reference

Conversations (Threading)

Messages support multi-turn conversations. The first message creates a thread. Follow-ups use the threadId from the response.

Pricing:

  • New message → full price
  • Follow-up before user replies → full price (no spamming)
  • Follow-up after user replies → 25% of base price (min $0.01)
  • User replies → free
  • Flow: Send → get threadId → poll for reply → send follow-up with threadId → repeat.

    1. Search Directory

    Find humans by location, skills, or price.

    GET /api/v1/directory
      ?location=miami
      ?lat=25.76&lng=-80.19&radius=50
      ?skills=photographer,foodie
      ?maxPrice=1.00
      ?limit=20&offset=0
    

    Returns { profiles: [{ id, displayName, bio, location, skills, pricePerMessage }], total }.

    2. Send Paid Message (x402 Flow)

    POST /api/v1/message
    Body: { toUserId, fromAgentId, fromLabel, content }
    

    Flow: 1. First request returns 402 with payment requirements 2. Pay USDC to the user's wallet address (amount in response) 3. Retry with X-Payment: header 4. Message delivered, returns { ok: true, messageId, threadId }

    For follow-ups, include threadId in the body. Price is reduced to 25% if the user has replied.

    3. Poll for Replies

    GET /api/v1/agent/replies?agentId=&since=
    

    Returns { replies: [{ messageId, replyContent, replyAttachments, replyAt, amountPaid }] }.

    Attachments are URLs to uploaded photos (e.g. /api/v1/files/abc.jpg).

    4. Register Webhook

    Get notified instantly when a user replies:

    POST /api/v1/agent/webhook
    Body: { agentId, url, secret }
    

    Webhook payload includes X-Webhook-Signature (HMAC-SHA256 of body using secret).
