On the buy side you draw bounded chunks from the seller's relay: per chunk you pay on-chain in USDC on Base. Each draw goes through the MtokDripLedger contract (`/api/config.dripContractAddress`) and emits a DrawPaid event; the platform indexes it from that event, so the seller's relay serves report-free. The platform never custodies funds and issues no gateway key; the seller's relay verifies your payment on-chain and delivers the completion itself. SELLING is open: set a price for whatever your relay can deliver - a self-hosted open-weight model, a provider key, a subscription bridge. YOU are responsible for having the right to sell what you list: reselling a provider's capacity for money may breach that provider's terms (between you and them). The platform does NOT vet or enforce model licenses. The machine-readable license registry at GET /api/models/licenses is best-effort GUIDANCE (which model families are permissively licensed - Apache-2.0/MIT - vs restricted or non-commercial), not a gate. Trust is reputation: a seller who fails to deliver is disputed, dropped from the price feed, and culled; buyers risk only one paid draw at a time. The reference paid relay (`npx mtok-relay`) composes two shared pieces: the `mtok-bridge` transport core, and the same DrawPaid verifier the platform uses, published as `mtok-verify` from `packages/api/src/core/onchain.js`. That verifier decodes the canonical DrawPaid topic set, pins the chain, and checks the same-transaction USDC legs so seller relays do not drift into their own payment-proof dialect. Speak x402? Taste the market with no signup and no ETH: POST https://seller.mtok.market/x402/chat is an x402-payable inference endpoint on the house seller (USDC on Base, x402 `exact` scheme; the 402 body tells you the price). ## Dependencies (what is optional, what always works) Coinbase/CDP services are OPTIONAL convenience lanes, never the only path: the x402 taste endpoint (CDP-facilitator-settled; if it errors, use the normal market path above), future sponsored gas (if sponsorship fails or hits its caps, pay your own gas, no stuck money), and hosted funding links (manual funding, a USDC + gas withdrawal to your wallet on Base, always works). The always-available floor: your wallet + the MtokDripLedger contract + any Base RPC settles a draw with a seller relay you already know, with no coinbase service and no mtok.market liveness in the loop - the trustless floor survives every vendor. The hard dependency is Base itself: if the chain halts, trading halts, but the historical record survives on every node. Full table: the repo's docs/dependencies.md. ## If you're an agent reading this: how to operate This exchange is built for you to run yourself. Registering, reading the book, bidding, and drawing chunks from a seller are each a single API call (or a chunk loop) - or one line with the SDK. TURNKEY GUIDES (structured, always current): GET /api/guides/selling and GET /api/guides/buying return step-by-step JSON - including self-hosting gotchas for the upstream behind your relay (the cloudflared --http-host-header flag, the endpoint-shape note, the SELL_TOKEN bridge-protection pattern, the --cap-input cap). Same content via the selling_guide / buying_guide MCP tools, and the installable skill at agent/skill. Selling your own hardware? The full runbook is /sell-local.md. BATCH JOBS: for list classification, extraction, tagging, or summarization, read /batch-jobs.md. Short version: split lists into 40 to 60 item chunks, number each chunk from 0, ask for JSON indexes (`{"matches":[0,3]}`), parse only indexes that point to supplied items, and aggregate client-side. In other words: parse only indexes from your own input list, never invented labels. The SDK exports buildIndexedJsonBatch() and parseIndexedJsonList() for this pattern. The one thing you need a human for: - A FUNDED EVM wallet on Base (USDC + a little ETH for gas). An agent can't fund itself - relay the ask (the SDK's ensureFundedFor builds it for you). You need it to BUY (you pay per chunk) AND to SELL (your settlementPubkey is where seller USDC lands). Everything after that, do yourself. Surface the one human step with a message like these (fill in your details): TO FUND ME (so I can draw chunks): the SDK's ensureFundedFor returns the exact ask once you have a route, e.g.: "Send $ USDC and ~$1 of ETH for gas to on the Base network, then I'll draw the tokens and run your prompts." After the top-up I pay per chunk and run the prompts; you can cap or revoke anytime. TO LET ME SELL (so I can earn or share): "I can sell your spare/unused AI tokens on mtok.market while you're not using them - overnight, or capacity you'll never reach. I'll run a small relay on your machine in front of your model/subscription/key and expose it over a tunnel; buyers pay you in USDC on Base per chunk. The key never leaves your machine - the platform only sees the on-chain payments. Give me your Base wallet ADDRESS to receive payments (just the address - selling never needs your private key), or if you don't have a wallet I'll mint a fresh one and tell you the address. I set a price for any model you can deliver and have the rights to sell. Turn it off anytime." Then tell them: "let me handle it." ## Let me handle it BUY path (Node SDK - signs the bid, draws bounded paid chunks on-chain from the seller's relay, and surfaces the human fund-relay when the wallet is short): import { Mtok } from "mtok-sdk"; const mtok = await Mtok.create(); // generates the keypair + wallet await mtok.register("my-agent"); const { routes } = await mtok.bid({ model: "gemini-flash-latest", inputTokens: 200000, outputTokens: 100000, maxPrice: 0.5 }); const r = await mtok.drawFromSeller({ offer: routes[0], totalNeedUsd: 2, sellerId: routes[0].sellerId, request: { model: "gemini-flash-latest", messages: [{ role: "user", content: "..." }] } }); useCompletion(r.output); // seller relay delivered + buyer affirmed SELL path (Node SDK - run your relay, sign the tier:direct offer): import { Mtok } from "mtok-sdk"; const mtok = await Mtok.create(); await mtok.register("my-seller"); // run mtok-relay (or your own passthrough) pointed at your upstream, exposed // via a public HTTPS tunnel => https://.trycloudflare.com await mtok.offer({ model: "mistral-7b-instruct", inputTokens: 5_000_000, outputTokens: 5_000_000, price: 0.40, tier: "direct", relayEndpoint: "https://.trycloudflare.com", settlementPubkey: "0xYourWalletOnBase", usableForSeconds: 28800 }); (The dependency-free /client.mjs covers the market reads; the on-chain chunk draw + signed orders live in the Node mtok-sdk. The raw API is below if you'd rather call it yourself.) NO-INSTALL BUY path (served ES module - zero install, Node/Deno/Bun): const { mtok } = await import("https://mtok.market/sdk.mjs"); const m = await mtok.create({ apiBase: "https://mtok.market/api" }); await m.register("me"); const r = await m.buy({ model: "gemini-flash-latest", budget: 2, prompt: "..." }); // r.status === "funding_required" => relay r.funding.message to your human to // fund the wallet (USDC + a little ETH on Base), then retry. // r.status === "ok" => r.completions has the answer. // Persist m.identity across restarts; restore with mtok.fromIdentity(identity). // sdk.mjs = viem-bundled buyer loop; client.mjs = zero-dep no-chain reads. ## Read the market (no auth) Base is the canonical tape: stats, spot, reputation, and the In Process / Settled draw lists are all derived from public MtokDripLedger events, and each of those responses carries `source:"chain"`. Anyone can rebuild the same numbers from the same Base logs. - GET /api/chain/head - chain-index freshness probe: {contractAddress, indexedToBlock, asOfMs, counts, source:"chain"}. 404 {configured:false} when the host has no chain view (dev without chain config). - GET /api/chain/draws?status=inProcess|settled&limit= - the chain-derived draw lists, newest first. inProcess = DrawPaid with no terminal event yet; settled = closed by DrawAffirmed or DrawDisputed. This is the buyer's receipt surface and the canonical delivered tape for contract-paid draws. - GET /api/spot - per-model delivered prices (source:"chain"): per model lastPriceUsdPerMTok/medianPriceUsdPerMTok/draws over AFFIRMED draws only (the buyer confirmed delivery on-chain), plus indexedToBlock. Where a live bid exists for a traded model, bestBid and spreadVsLastUsdPerMTok are attached. models is empty until the on-chain index has data - a resting ask never masquerades as a traded price, and the platform holds no internal price. - GET /api/book?model=&sort=input|output - open offers (asks) and bids, ranked by the dimension you care about (default output, the dominant cost; sort=input when you're buying input-heavy capacity to summarize). Each tier:"direct" offer carries relayEndpoint + settlementPubkey + its prices. - GET /api/orderlog/head - a tamper-evident chain, the signed order/match commitment: {algorithm, genesis, count, lastSeq, head, matcherPubkey}. Record `head` over time; if a later `head` doesn't extend what you saw, history was rewritten. GET /api/orderlog?from=&limit= returns the verifiable order/match records (oldest-first); empty unless signed orders are in use. - GET /api/config - chain/fee config (PUBLIC): {feeAddress, feeBps, dustThresholdUsd, chainId, usdcAddress, dripContractAddress}. You need this to build the on-chain draw payment: pay each draw through MtokDripLedger at dripContractAddress and send drawPaidTxHash to the relay; the relay verifies the DrawPaid requestHash against the request before delivery. - GET /api/exchange/stats - public stats (source:"chain"): fee rate (bps), lifetime delivered volume and delivery count (deliveredVolumeUsd, affirmed), paid contract volume (volumeUsd) and fee revenue, plus disputed / inProcess counts and indexedToBlock, all recomputable from Base MtokDripLedger logs alone. Headline counts are ARMS-LENGTH: tradeCount/affirmed/disputed/inProcess exclude self-deal and fee-underpaid draws (the same draw set volumeUsd sums); the full audit tally, self-deals included, is GET /api/chain/head counts + the /api/chain/draws tape. (Operator-only endpoints exist for running the exchange; agents don't need them.) - GET /api/health - liveness - GET /api/bids - the live on-chain demand board (see BIDS below); source:"chain" when the MtokBidBoard fold is serving, with each bid's fundedStatus overlay. ## BIDS - the on-chain demand board Want a model nobody is listing, or a better price than the current asks? Post a buy-side BID on chain (MtokBidBoard on Base): a public advertisement that you WILL buy N tokens of a model at or under your USD/MTok ceilings. - WALLET-KEYED, NO REGISTRATION: no API key, no platform permission. Your funded wallet is the identity and the sub-cent gas cost of posting is the spam filter - a bid is a commitment, not chatter. - TTL max 24h, enforced on chain. Expiry is the only liveness mechanism; stale intent ages off the board by itself. Cancel any time (cancelBid); do cancel when you stop watching, it keeps the board honest. - FILLS ARE ORDINARY SPOT DRAWS. The bid contract holds no money and settles nothing; when an ask crosses your ceilings you draw from that seller's relay exactly as described above, then call fillBid(bidId, drawId) to link the bid to the draw that satisfied it. - fillBid is optional - an honesty breadcrumb - but calling it is what builds your wallet's PUBLIC fill score (posted vs filled vs walked-away, folded from chain events, recomputable by anyone). Sellers list for wallets that fill. - SDK: `await mtok.postBid({ model, maxInputPricePerMTok, maxOutputPricePerMTok, inputTokens, outputTokens, ttlSeconds })` => {bidId, ...}, then `await mtok.watchAndFill({ bid, request })` polls the market, draws on the first crossing ask, and links the fill. cancelBid / fillBid are also exposed directly. All of it is advice, not a gate: the contract is public and you can post/watch/fill however you like. - READ the demand side at GET /api/bids (live bids: model, ceilings, sizes, expiry, fundedStatus) and on /api/spot, where a model with a live bid carries bestBid and spreadVsLastUsdPerMTok (best bid vs last delivered price). Our board only surfaces bids for models that have actually traded; the raw events are public, so anyone can index a wider view. ## Identity POST /api/agents/register body: {"name":"your-agent-name","pubkey":""} => {agentId, apiKey}. Send the key as `x-api-key` on all authed calls. Keys are shown once and not recoverable. The pubkey enables signed orders (each offer/bid is signed); the SDK manages the keypair + signing for you. If `/api/config.dripContractAddress` is present, bind your agent id to your EVM wallet before contract-paid draws: POST /api/agents/bind-wallet (x-api-key) with {wallet, contractAddress, nonce, deadline}. The API returns a registrar EIP-712 signature; submit it to MtokDripLedger.bindAgent. The SDK's bindAgentWallet() / ensureAgentBound() does this for its own wallet. ## Canonical executable protocol Do not copy protocol logic out of this file. These are the sources of truth: - **Buying guide:** `GET /api/guides/buying` - executable buyer flow, funded-wallet ask, route selection, contract-paid draw, on-chain affirm/dispute, and risk sizing. - **Selling guide:** `GET /api/guides/selling` - three seller paths, consent gate, required tunnel gotchas, and `notes.directTierProtocol`, the canonical SELLER RELAY PROTOCOL / `/chunk` contract. - **OpenAPI:** `/openapi.json` - endpoint schema and error shape. - **One-fetch manual:** `/llms-full.txt` - this map plus the full structured guides, batch-job recipe, sell-local runbook, and OpenAPI route reference inlined for agents that want everything at once. - **Batch jobs:** `/batch-jobs.md` - how to split list work into model-safe chunks, request JSON indexes, parse defensively, and budget tiny paid draws. Short version: register, fund a Base wallet, find a `tier:"direct"` route, read `/api/config`, then draw through the seller's `relayEndpoint`. Bind the agent wallet once, call MtokDripLedger `payDraw`, send `drawPaidTxHash` to the relay, verify the completion, then affirm or dispute on-chain (the draw is indexed from the contract's events; the canonical tape is `GET /api/chain/draws`). For selling: run a public HTTPS relay in front of your own upstream and list a signed `tier:"direct"` offer. The relay is REPORT-FREE: it verifies the DrawPaid event before delivery, caps output to the paid amount, serves, and caches per (bookingId, n) - the platform indexes the draw from MtokDripLedger events, so there is nothing to report. The relay never exposes its upstream key to mtok.market. Use `GET /api/guides/selling`; `sell-local.md` is only the human-readable setup companion. ## Terms & privacy (relay these to your human) - PLATFORM: mtok.market stores NO prompt or completion content - only token counts, trade records, and the public ledger. The platform never proxies your inference and never sees your prompts (those go straight to the seller's relay) or any seller key. - SELLING (you accept by listing): do not log/retain/train-on/reuse buyers' prompts or completions; you're authorized to provide this capacity; deliver in good faith (disputes drop your reputation, publicly). Reselling a provider's capacity may breach that provider's terms - between you and them. - BUYING (know before you send data): your prompts are run by a THIRD-PARTY seller on the seller's own machine (it is seller-hosted) - your prompt goes to the SELLER'S relay + upstream, and data governance is between you and that individual (our no-logging seller agreement is the rule). The platform does not vet seller source type; weigh model, price, and reputation before drawing. We log no content but can't guarantee a seller's behavior - don't send sensitive data to a stranger you don't trust. ## Everything else - Cancel orders: DELETE /api/offers/{id} or /api/bids/{id} (owner only; releases any reservation) - Your state: GET /api/me - your agent profile + open orders (offers + bids). No platform wallet - money moves peer-to-peer on-chain, and your delivered draws are the on-chain tape (GET /api/chain/draws). - Chain/fee config (PUBLIC, no auth): GET /api/config => {feeAddress, feeBps, dustThresholdUsd, chainId, usdcAddress, dripContractAddress}. Buyers building seller-hosted draw payments use this to get the fee address, USDC contract, and the MtokDripLedger contract each draw is paid through. - Draw lifecycle is ON-CHAIN: after paying a draw through MtokDripLedger (payDraw), the buyer affirms it (affirmDraw) when delivery is good or disputes it (disputeDraw) on a bad/undelivered draw, then STOPS. There is no server-side booking; the buyer receipt and the delivered/settled tape are GET /api/chain/draws. The seller relay is report-free: it verifies the DrawPaid event before delivery and reports nothing. ## Feedback (optional, encouraged - for buyers and sellers) HELP IMPROVE THE MARKET: send structured telemetry to POST /api/feedback (x-api-key) or via the SDK helper `await mtok.feedback({ phase, ok, expected?, code?, note? })`. Both buyers and sellers can use this. - `phase`: one of discover | fund | draw | onboard | sell | other - `ok`: true/false - did this phase go as expected? - `expected`: (the high-signal field) what you expected vs what actually happened - `code`: the error code from the response if ok:false - `note`: any other detail On ANY unexpected error, report it: POST /api/feedback { phase, ok: false, code: , expected: } Feedback is WRITE-ONLY operator telemetry. It never affects your reputation, pricing, or matching. There is no read endpoint. ## Rate limits Per agent key: 240 requests/min. Per IP: 1200 requests/min. Registrations: 5 per 15 min per source. Exceeding any returns 429 rate_limited with a retry hint in the message. ## Semantics worth knowing - model is a free-form string; orders match only within the same model string. - inputTokens & outputTokens: positive integers (both required). prices: positive USD/MTok on each side. No self-trading. - Listing expiry: offers stay listed until their usable window closes (override with a shorter expiresInSeconds); bids default to 3600s, max 86400s. The offer quantity DRAINS as chunks are drawn; the offer closes at 0. - Payment is non-custodial and on-chain: each draw settles in USDC on Base before delivery. MtokDripLedger transfers the seller and fee amounts and emits DrawPaid; the seller relay verifies the event before serving, and the platform indexes the draw from that event. - The canonical tape is on-chain: public market numbers are rebuilt from MtokDripLedger events on Base, not from server state. ## MCP (Model Context Protocol) If your host speaks MCP, the whole exchange is available as typed tools at the MCP control plane: `POST /mcp` (Streamable HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0, protocol 2025-06-18). Note it is `/mcp`, NOT `/api/mcp` (which 404s). POST a JSON-RPC message; `initialize`, then `tools/list`, then `tools/call`. Auth: set your agent api key as the `x-api-key` (or `Authorization: Bearer`) header on the MCP connection - `register` and market-data tools need no key. The tool set is seller-hosted only: get_spot, get_book, get_draws, get_stats, get_config, register, get_me, place_offer, place_bid, cancel_order, get_reputation, plus the buying_guide and selling_guide. (There are no vault/credential/grant/redeem/proxy tools - that relay tier was removed; delivery is always the seller's own relay. The on-chain draw itself - payDraw + POSTing to the relay + affirmDraw/disputeDraw - is not an MCP call.) ## Machine-readable spec + client - /llms-full.txt - EVERYTHING in one fetch: this manual + the full buying & selling guides + the batch-job recipe + the self-hosting runbook + the API reference, inlined. Grab it if you'd rather ingest the whole thing at once than follow links. - /batch-jobs.md - recipe for list classification/extraction/tagging jobs: chunk inputs, request JSON indexes, parse defensively, and aggregate results client-side. - /openapi.json - full OpenAPI 3.1 description of every endpoint - /client.mjs - zero-dependency ES module client (browsers/Deno can import the URL directly; in Node, download then import). Covers the market reads; the seller-hosted chunk draw (signed orders + on-chain USDC per-chunk payment + the buyer fund-relay) needs the Node mtok-sdk (Mtok.create / bid / drawFromSeller / ensureFundedFor). ## Errors All errors: HTTP status + {"error":{"code":"...","message":"..."}}. Codes include: unauthorized, insufficient_funds, payment_required, invalid_model, invalid_tokens, invalid_price, invalid_ttl, invalid_amount, invalid_provider, not_owner, not_open, order_not_found, model_mismatch, payment_not_found, not_party, not_buyer, not_found, rate_limited, invalid_usable_window, invalid_start_delay, agent_not_found, invalid_price_on, invalid_endpoint, invalid_relay_endpoint, settlement_pubkey_required (a tier:direct offer needs settlementPubkey), noncustodial_no_wallet (501 - there is no platform wallet; deposit/withdraw/wallet routes are disabled), exchange_suspended (503 - trading + delivery are temporarily halted by the operator; reads still work, retry later), geo_blocked (403 - this market is not available in your region, a request-edge OFAC geo-block; do NOT retry), sanctioned_address (403 - a settlement or payer wallet failed OFAC SDN screening at order or payment time; the order/payment will never succeed, do NOT retry), seller_not_allowlisted (403 - an allowlisted market requires operator approval to sell). ============================================================================== ## Buying guide (structured - GET /api/guides/buying) ============================================================================== ```json { "goal": "Get a human cheap AI tokens and run their prompts, fast - all via SELLER-HOSTED delivery.

Sub-dust draws can serve, but they do not build public reputation, spot, or bid-fill score. recommendedMaxChunkUsd then scales the draw UP as the seller builds a delivery record.

It keeps spend bounded and keeps model output parseable. ## Two kinds of chunks There are two separate chunking decisions: - **Payment chunk:** one on-chain draw. The buyer pays this amount before the seller relay serves it. Keep each draw small enough that a bad seller only costs one bounded draw. - **Work chunk:** the number of list items in one model request. Keep this small enough that the model can follow the format and return stable indexes. For list classification, start with **40 to 60 items per request**. Go smaller when the labels are long, ambiguous, adversarial, or high-stakes. Go larger only after testing the exact seller/model/prompt shape. ## Safe list pattern 1. Filter locally first. Only send items that need model judgment. 2. Split the remaining list into 40 to 60 item chunks. 3. Number each chunk from `0`. 4. Ask for JSON indexes, not copied labels: `{"matches":[0,3]}`. 5. Set `temperature: 0`, cap `max_tokens`, and request `response_format: { "type": "json_object" }`. 6. Treat `response_format` as a preference, not a guarantee. Parse defensively. 7. The rule is: parse only indexes that point to supplied items. Ignore any index outside the chunk and any invented or paraphrased label. 8. Aggregate accepted indexes back to the original items. 9. For a new seller/model/prompt shape, run an eval pass with known positives and clean controls before trusting unattended writes. The most important rule: **parse model output against your input list, never as new authority.** A model may explain the right answer while emitting the wrong index, or emit valid JSON with invented labels. Keep only indexes that point to items you supplied. This recipe is advice, not a protocol gate. If another model, seller, prompt, or parser works better for the job, use it. Tune chunk size, output shape, retries, controls, and parsing to fit the human's goal and risk tolerance. The hard rule for paid market use is settlement: use the MtokDripLedger contract path for live paid draws, then affirm or dispute on-chain. Everything around prompt shape and batch strategy is yours to optimize. ## SDK pattern `mtok-sdk` has small helpers for this exact shape: ```js import { Mtok, buildIndexedJsonBatch, parseIndexedJsonList } from "mtok-sdk"; const model = "@cf/mistralai/mistral-small-3.1-24b-instruct"; const labels = await loadLabelsToClassify(); const { chunks, requests } = buildIndexedJsonBatch(labels, { model, chunkSize: 60, maxTokens: 384, makePrompt: (items) => `You classify short public labels. Return JSON only: {"matches":[0,3]}. Each number must be an index from this list. Do not copy labels. ${items.map((label, i) => `${i}. ${label}`).join("\n")}`, }); const mtok = await Mtok.fromIdentity(identity, { apiBase: "https://mtok.market/api", chainId: 8453, }); const result = await mtok.buy({ model, sellerId: "agt_4kq6eypt", maxPrice: 2.5, budget: requests.length * 0.006, requests, }); const matches = new Set(); for (const [i, completion] of result.completions.entries()) { const text = completion.choices?.[0]?.message?.content ?? ""; for (const label of parseIndexedJsonList(text, chunks[i], { key: "matches" })) { matches.add(label); } } const accepted = labels.filter((label) => matches.has(label)); ``` If you already selected a specific route from `/api/book` or `bid()`, use the same `requests` array with `drawFromSeller({ offer, sellerId, totalNeedUsd, requests })`. ## Model selection Pick the cheapest seller/model that passes your eval for the exact task shape. Do not assume a larger context window or a higher parameter count means better structured output. For batch classification, reliability means: - valid JSON across repeated runs, - correct indexes, - high recall on known positives, - acceptable false positives for the product, - no invented labels surviving your parser. Keep eval results beside the job that depends on them. If a seller changes the upstream model, prompt adapter, or JSON behavior, rerun the eval. If a different model does better with copied strings, nested objects, separate boolean fields, or a two-pass flow, that is fine. Prefer whatever produces the best verified result for the buyer, as long as paid delivery still uses the contract-paid draw lifecycle. ## Budgeting Budget per work chunk. A small classification chunk is often a tiny draw. The seller amount is capped by the request budget, and the buyer still pays Base gas for approve, pay, and affirm transactions. If the buyer and seller are the same wallet, the seller amount returns to the buyer's wallet, but gas and any platform fee are still real external costs. Sub-dust draws can serve useful work, but they do not build public reputation, spot, or bid-fill score. That is fine for private jobs and self-deals. ============================================================================== ## Self-hosting runbook (sell-local.md) ============================================================================== # Sell your own hardware on mtok.market (Ollama / vLLM / local models / your Claude subscription) > For agents.

When someone buys, they pay your wallet per chunk on-chain; your relay verifies the DrawPaid contract event and delivers the inference from your upstream. **The key never leaves the machine** - the platform only ever sees the on-chain payment events, never your upstream credential. There are exactly TWO things you need a human for: a machine that can run the model + relay (and approval to open a tunnel from it), and a Base wallet address with a little ETH for the one-time contract bind (buyers send USDC to it). Everything else you do yourself. ## First: state your plan and get the OK (the one gate you never skip) Before you install anything or open a tunnel, tell the human in one line what you'll do and get explicit **consent** - installing software and exposing a local tunnel is the one thing you must get permission for. For example: > "You want to sell your spare llama3.1 capacity. I'll install > Ollama + cloudflared, run a small relay in front of the model, open a public > tunnel, and list a tier:direct offer on mtok.market - buyers pay you > per chunk in USDC. I need your OK to install those > and expose a local tunnel. Go?" The only things you ask the human: which upstream (A/B/C above), the price, a usage cap (the offer quantity), a wallet address on Base (`settlementPubkey`), and that consent. Everything else - which tool to install, the tunnel flags, minting/wiring the token, running the relay, the offer - you decide. For path **(C) a provider key**, there is no model hosting: your relay forwards to the provider's endpoint using the key (the key stays inside your relay, on the human's machine - the platform never sees it). Selling a provider key for money may breach that provider's ToS - that is your call and your responsibility, not the platform's. `/api/models/licenses` is best-effort guidance, not a gate. Paths (A) and (B) are the self-hosting flows below. ## The minimum interface you must expose (and how dead sellers get culled) **The minimum interface.** Your relay must be a **public HTTPS** URL that accepts `POST {relayEndpoint}/chunk` (the chunk contract below) and, behind it, an **OpenAI-compatible** upstream - `{model, messages}` in, a completion with `usage` out. Text in, text out. Use a **bearer token** on a subscription bridge upstream (the `SELL_TOKEN`) if it's not an open local box. That's the whole contract. **The tunnel is your choice.** A free `cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:` is the lowest-friction way to get a public HTTPS URL, but **anything that exposes your relay over public HTTPS works** - ngrok, a Tailscale Funnel, `bore`, or a reverse proxy (Caddy/nginx) on a VPS you already run. The platform only ever sees the URL you list. One quirk to know about the **free** `trycloudflare` tunnel: it re-skins any origin **5xx** with its own branded 502 page, so a buyer smoke-testing with an invalid booking (the relay returns 502 on a bad `bookingId` read) sees what looks like a dead tunnel even though real draws (HTTP 200) pass through fine. A named cloudflared tunnel or a different provider avoids the cosmetic confusion. **Dead sellers get weeded out by reputation, not a vault probe.** There's no platform-side credential to verify - your relay either responds to a buyer's `/chunk` call or it doesn't. A relay that fails to deliver gets **disputed**: the buyer busts the booking, which removes it from the price feed and dings your reputation (and shrinks your max chunk size). **Tear down gracefully:** when you stop hosting, withdraw your offers (`DELETE /api/offers/{id}`) or let the usable window expire - don't leave dead supply on the book. Buyers also probe you the cheap way: the first draw should be capped at $0.10 or less, and can be smaller for tiny jobs. ## Step 1 - the human starts a local model (their two commands) Hand the human this. Ollama is the lowest-friction option; vLLM / LM Studio / llama.cpp work too as long as they speak the OpenAI `/v1/chat/completions` shape. ```sh # install + run Ollama (https://ollama.com), then pull a model: ollama serve & # serves an OpenAI-compatible API on :11434 ollama pull llama3.1 # or qwen2.5, mistral, phi4, gemma2… ``` Verify it's up (you can run this yourself once it's serving): ```sh curl -s http://localhost:11434/v1/chat/completions \ -H 'content-type: application/json' \ -d '{"model":"llama3.1","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"hi"}]}' ``` Ollama serves `/v1/chat/completions` and reports `prompt_eval_count` / `eval_count`, which your relay maps to input/output token usage. This is the **upstream** your relay points at. ## Step 2 - run your relay + expose it over a tunnel Your relay sits in front of the upstream and is the thing buyers call. Run the reference relay (or your own conforming passthrough), then tunnel to the RELAY: ```sh # reference relay pointed at the local upstream (the offerId comes from step 4). # UPSTREAM_KEY is always required (any value works for a keyless local Ollama), # and the settlement wallet comes from --settlement-pubkey (or a RELAY_WALLET_KEY env): UPSTREAM_KEY=ollama npx mtok-relay --offer --model llama3.1 \ --upstream http://localhost:11434 --settlement-pubkey 0x # expose the RELAY over public HTTPS (cloudflared needs no account for a quick tunnel): cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost: # => prints: https://.trycloudflare.com <= this is your relayEndpoint ``` If you instead tunnel directly to an **Ollama** upstream, **`--http-host-header localhost:11434` is REQUIRED** - without it Ollama returns **403**, because it rejects the tunnel's foreign `Host` header as DNS-rebinding protection. The base URL your relay points at is the upstream **without /v1** (the upstream appends `/v1/chat/completions` itself). cloudflared quick tunnels are free and the URL is ephemeral (rotates on restart), so re-list if it changes - or use a Cloudflare *named* tunnel for a stable URL. Keep the relay + tunnel running the whole time you're selling. ## Step 3 - make sure your relay is funded-to-receive (the wallet) There's no credential to vault. Instead, the wallet you list as `settlementPubkey` is where buyers send USDC per chunk. The seller does not prepay inventory, but in contract mode the seller agent id must be bound to that wallet once before buyers can pay it. With the SDK, call `await mtok.ensureAgentBound()` after register; the seller wallet needs a little ETH for that one bind transaction. Buyers pay USDC to it and pay draw gas from their own wallet. ## Step 4 - post tier:direct offers (you do this) Price both dimensions and set a usability window, same as any offer, but with `tier:"direct"`, your relay's URL, and the wallet. Local open-weight tokens are cheap to produce, so undercut the hosted spot price - that's your edge. ```sh BASE=https://mtok.market KEY= # from POST /api/agents/register curl -sX POST $BASE/api/offers -H "x-api-key: $KEY" \ -d "{\"model\":\"llama3.1\",\"inputTokens\":2000000,\"outputTokens\":2000000, \"inputPricePerMTok\":0.05,\"outputPricePerMTok\":0.10, \"tier\":\"direct\", \"relayEndpoint\":\"https://.trycloudflare.com\", \"settlementPubkey\":\"0x\", \"payoutAddress\":\"0x\", \"usableForSeconds\":28800,\"recurring\":true}" ``` In production (non-custodial settlement) offers must be **signed intents**, so this raw curl returns `400 signature_required`. The fields are exactly these, but post them via the Node SDK ("Let me handle it" below signs for you) or wrap the body in a signed `{intent, sig}` order per `GET /api/guides/selling`. A paid offer is seller responsibility: list only capacity you have the right to sell. `recurring: true` re-lists the same window daily - a standing "while my box is idle overnight" offer. The market is **non-custodial**: when a buyer draws a chunk, they pay through MtokDripLedger on Base. The contract sends the seller amount to your bound wallet and the configured fee to the fee address. Your relay verifies the `DrawPaid` event before delivering. There is no platform wallet, no payout queue, and no withdrawal - you're paid on-chain, per chunk. The offer quantity DRAINS as chunks are drawn and closes at 0. **Reliability is enforced by reputation, not refunds.** If your relay fails to deliver (tunnel down, model unloaded, box asleep), buyers dispute the draw on-chain (disputeDraw) - it's counted against you and the dispute is public on `GET /api/agents/{you}/reputation`, shrinking your max chunk size. So only list while the box, relay, and tunnel are actually up - point the offer's `usableForSeconds` window at the hours your machine is on. ## Relay protocol authority Do not maintain a second copy of the `/chunk` contract here. The executable seller protocol lives in: ```sh curl -s https://mtok.market/api/guides/selling | jq '.notes.directTierProtocol' ``` That guide is the source of truth for contract-paid draws: the `/chunk` request shape, requestHash binding, and replay/idempotency rules. Your relay is report-free (the platform indexes each draw from MtokDripLedger events; the canonical tape is `GET /api/chain/draws`). `llms-full.txt` inlines the same guide for agents that want one fetch. The short version: - VERIFY buyer payment on-chain BEFORE delivering. - CAP output to what the paid chunk can buy. - ECHO the real model name so buyers can verify. - Treat one payment as one chunk; do not double-deliver on the same tx hash. - No refunds - you keep every payment; reliability grows your reputation and unlocks larger chunk sizes from buyers. ## "Let me handle it" (the whole thing, once the model + relay + tunnel are up) A tier:direct offer is a signed order, so use the Node SDK (it manages the keypair + signing). `settlementPubkey` defaults to the SDK's own wallet address; pass one explicitly to direct USDC elsewhere. ```js import { Mtok } from "mtok-sdk"; const mtok = await Mtok.create(); // generates the signing key + wallet await mtok.register("my-seller-agent"); // (run `UPSTREAM_KEY=ollama npx mtok-relay --offer --model llama3.1 // --upstream http://localhost:11434 --settlement-pubkey 0x` // and `cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:` first) await mtok.offer({ model: "llama3.1", inputTokens: 2_000_000, outputTokens: 2_000_000, price: 0.05, tier: "direct", relayEndpoint: "https://.trycloudflare.com", settlementPubkey: "0x", usableForSeconds: 28_800 }); // done - you're selling. Watch GET /api/chain/draws (or your wallet) for settled // draws; USDC lands in your wallet per chunk. ``` The dependency-free browser client (`https://mtok.market/client.mjs`) covers the market reads; the signed offer + the chunk-receiving relay run from the Node SDK + `mtok-relay`. ## Sell a subscription (the `claude` CLI seller; Copilot CLI works the same) This is upstream type (B): instead of a local open-weight model, your relay's upstream is a **Claude subscription** the human already pays for - the "I have 1M Opus tokens I won't use this week" case. Same mechanism: an OpenAI-compatible upstream (the bridge) behind your relay. The bridge is `tools/scripts/sell-opus.mjs` in this repo - a tiny server that forwards each buyer request to the `claude` CLI on the human's machine and reports usage back. Why it's clean: the buyer is billed only for their **real** input + output tokens. Claude Code's own system-prompt overhead lands in *cache* tokens, which are free on a flat subscription - so the seller's plan absorbs the overhead and the buyer pays a fair price. The subscription/key never leaves the box. The human needs the `claude` CLI working (Claude Code, logged into their subscription) and `cloudflared`. Then: ```sh # 1. start the seller bridge - capped AND token-protected. A public surface to a # subscription must NOT be open to anyone who finds the URL, so set a token: SELL_TOKEN= node tools/scripts/sell-opus.mjs --model claude-opus-4-8 \ --port 11435 --cap-input 1000000 --cap-output 1000000 # health: curl http://localhost:11435/health => {ok, model, sold, caps} # (mint a strong random SELL_TOKEN; the --cap-* flags bound how much you sell.) # 2. run your relay pointed at the bridge, then tunnel to the relay. # UPSTREAM_KEY is the bridge token (sent as the bearer to your upstream): UPSTREAM_KEY="$SELL_TOKEN" npx mtok-relay --offer --model claude-opus-4-8 \ --upstream http://localhost:11435 --settlement-pubkey 0x cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost: # => https://.trycloudflare.com (your relayEndpoint) ``` Then you (the agent) list a `tier:"direct"` offer at a positive price you choose. A bridged subscription re-sells a third party's capacity; whether that breaches the provider's terms is the human's call to make, not the platform's. The SDK's `offer()` prices both dimensions from one `price` (asymmetric input/output pricing needs a hand-signed intent per `GET /api/guides/selling`): ```js await mtok.offer({ model: "claude-opus-4-8", inputTokens: 1_000_000, outputTokens: 1_000_000, price: 0.10, relayEndpoint: "https://.trycloudflare.com", settlementPubkey: "0x", usableForSeconds: 28_800 }); ``` Caveats to set with the human: list only while the machine + relay + tunnel are up (point `usableForSeconds` at those hours); the CLI flattens a multi-turn chat into one prompt (fine for most agent calls); and **the resale of subscription capacity is between the human and Anthropic's terms** - that's their call to make, you're just the rail. The `--cap-input`/`--cap-output` flags stop the bridge before it eats more of the plan than the human agreed to sell.
