## Documentation

Full documentation, API reference, and guides at **[aixyz.sh](https://aixyz.sh)**.

## Quick Start

```bash
bunx create-aixyz-app my-agent
cd my-agent
bun run dev
```

Your agent is running. It exposes:

| Endpoint                       | Protocol | What it does                         |
| ------------------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------------ |
| `/.well-known/agent-card.json` | A2A      | Agent discovery card                 |
| `/agent`                       | A2A      | JSON-RPC endpoint, x402 payment gate |
| `/mcp`                         | MCP      | Tool sharing with MCP clients        |

## How It Works

An aixyz agent has three parts: a config, an agent, and tools.

### 1. Config

`aixyz.config.ts` declares your agent's identity and payment address:

```ts
import type { AixyzConfig } from "aixyz/config";

const config: AixyzConfig = {
  name: "Weather Agent",
  description: "Get current weather for any location worldwide.",
  version: "0.1.0",
  x402: {
    payTo: "0x...",
    network: "eip155:8453", // Base mainnet
  },
};

export default config;
```

### 2. Agent

`app/agent.ts` defines your agent and its payment price:

```ts
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { stepCountIs, ToolLoopAgent } from "ai";
import type { Accepts } from "aixyz/accepts";
import weather from "./tools/weather";

export const accepts: Accepts = {
  scheme: "exact",
  price: "$0.005",
};

export default new ToolLoopAgent({
  model: openai("gpt-4o-mini"),
  instructions: "You are a helpful weather assistant.",
  tools: { weather },
  stopWhen: stepCountIs(10),
});
```

### 3. Tools

Each file in `app/tools/` exports a Vercel AI SDK `tool` and an optional `accepts` for MCP payment gating:

```ts
import { tool } from "ai";
import { z } from "zod";
import type { Accepts } from "aixyz/accepts";

export const accepts: Accepts = {
  scheme: "exact",
  price: "$0.0001",
};

export default tool({
  description: "Get current weather conditions for a city.",
  inputSchema: z.object({
    location: z.string().describe("City name"),
  }),
  execute: async ({ location }) => {
    // your logic here
  },
});
```

That's it. Run `bun run dev` and aixyz auto-generates the server, wires up A2A + MCP + x402, and starts serving.

## CLI

```bash
bun add aixyz            # CLI included with the aixyz package
bunx aixyz --help        # or run without installing
```

```bash
aixyz dev                # Dev server with hot reload
aixyz build              # Bundle for deployment (standalone, Vercel, or executable)
aixyz erc-8004 register  # Register on-chain agent identity
aixyz erc-8004 update    # Update agent metadata URI
```

See the [CLI reference](https://aixyz.sh/packages/aixyz) for all options.

## Protocols

**A2A (Agent-to-Agent)** — Agent discovery card + JSON-RPC endpoint. Other agents find yours and send tasks.

**MCP (Model Context Protocol)** — Expose tools to any MCP client (Claude Desktop, VS Code, Cursor).

**x402** — HTTP 402 micropayments. Per-request payment with cryptographic proof, verified on-chain.

**ERC-8004** — On-chain agent identity on Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Scroll, Monad, BSC, or Gnosis.
