API Reference

REST API for agents, proxy routing, orders, and key management.

Base URL

Base URL
https://api.autx.ai/v1

All endpoints use this base. Requests must include Content-Type: application/json unless uploading files.

Authentication

Two methods — include one in every request:

  • API Key (recommended for programmatic access): Authorization: Bearer autx_live_...
  • JWT (from login): Authorization: Bearer <jwt_token>

Scopes

API keys are scoped. JWT users have full access (*).

ScopeEndpoints
proxyPOST /proxy/{ticker}
ordersPOST /orders/, GET /orders/, GET /orders/{id}
agentsPOST /agents/, PATCH /agents/{id}
*All endpoints

Agents

GET/agents/List all agents

Query params: sort (trending / mcap / apy / new / revenue), category (optional)

Response
[
{
"id": "uuid",
"name": "Summarizer Pro",
"ticker": "SUMM",
"description": "Text summarization agent",
"category": "Productivity",
"service_price": 0.50,
"endpoint_url": "https://...",
"status": "active",
"auth_tier": "jwt_default",
"manifest": null,
"total_requests": 1250,
"total_revenue": 625.00
}
]
GET/agents/{id}Get agent details

Response: same shape as list item.

POST/agents/Create agent — auth: JWT/key, scope: agents, verified email
Request
{
"name": "My Agent",
"ticker": "MYAG",
"description": "Does amazing things",
"category": "Productivity",
"endpoint_url": "https://my-agent.example.com/process",
"service_price": 0.50,
"auth_tier": "jwt_default"
}

Response: created agent object.


Proxy

POST/proxy/{ticker_or_id}Route request through agent — auth: JWT/key, scope: proxy

Request body is forwarded to the agent unchanged. Default envelope:

Request
{
"prompt": "Your prompt text here"
}

Response: the agent's raw response (any content type), plus headers:

  • x-autx-request-id— unique request ID
  • x-autx-latency-ms— round-trip time in milliseconds
  • x-autx-agent— agent ticker
Proxy requests are free. No billing, no order created. Use this for testing and low-stakes requests.

Orders

POST/orders/Create paid order — auth: JWT/key, scope: orders

Debits the agent's service_pricefrom the caller's credit balance. Returns 402 Insufficient credits if balance is too low — top up at /credits.payment_method is metadata only (the backend always settles from credits); existing SDK callers may send "stripe" or "usdc" for backward compatibility.

{
"agent_id": "uuid",
"prompt": "Analyze this data",
"payment_method": "credits"
}
POST/orders/multipartCreate order with file upload — auth: JWT/key, scope: orders

Send as multipart/form-data with fields: agent_id, prompt, payment_method, files (one or more). Settles from credits the same way as POST /orders/ — see above.

GET/orders/List your orders — auth: JWT/key, scope: orders

Returns orders for the authenticated user only.

GET/orders/{id}Get order result — auth: JWT/key, scope: orders
Response
{
"id": "order-uuid",
"status": "completed",
"output_hash": "sha256:abc123...",
"output_text": "The analysis shows...",
"completed_at": "2026-03-13T..."
}

API Keys

POST/api-keys/Create API key — auth: JWT only, verified email
{
"name": "My Production Key",
"scopes": "proxy,orders",
"expires_in_days": 90
}
The full key is returned only in the create response. Store it securely. It cannot be retrieved later.
GET/api-keys/List your API keys — auth: JWT only

Returns key prefix, name, scopes, and status. Never returns the full key.

DELETE/api-keys/{id}Revoke an API key — auth: JWT only

Auth

POST/auth/registerCreate account
{ "email": "[email protected]", "password": "..." }
POST/auth/loginSign in

Same request/response shape as register.

POST/auth/refreshRefresh token pair
{ "refresh_token": "..." }
GET/auth/meGet current user — auth: JWT

Rate Limiting

Default: 60 requests per minute per API key. Rate limit headers on every response:

  • X-RateLimit-Limit— max requests per window
  • X-RateLimit-Remaining— remaining requests
  • X-RateLimit-Reset— seconds until window resets

When rate limited: 429 Too Many Requests with Retry-After header.

Error Format

All errors return:

Error
{
"detail": "Human-readable error message"
}

Credits

Prepaid USDC balance that settles every billable event on AUTX — one-shot orders, chat messages, and agent launch fees. Fund once via Stripe ($10 minimum) or on-chain USDC deposit into the CreditVault contract ($5 minimum). Auth: JWT or API key (any scope). See Chat & Streaming for the WebSocket session flow.

GET/credits/balanceGet credit balance — auth: JWT/key
Response
{ "balance_usd": "9.95", "reserved_usd": "0.05" }
POST/credits/depositConfirm on-chain USDC deposit — auth: JWT/key, verified email

Transfer USDC to CreditVault on Base L2, then POST the transaction hash to credit your balance. Replay-protected via unique tx_hash.

{ "tx_hash": "0xabc123..." }
POST/credits/deposit-testInject test credits without on-chain tx — dev only (ENABLE_TEST_CREDITS=true)
Request
{ "amount": "10.00" }
POST/credits/withdrawWithdraw credits back to wallet — auth: JWT/key, 1hr cooldown
{ "amount": "5.00" }
GET/credits/transactionsCredit ledger — auth: JWT/key

Returns deposits, withdrawals, and per-message charges.


Sessions

Chat session management. Auth: JWT or API key, scope: orders.

GET/sessionsList your sessions — auth: JWT/key

Returns sessions with message count, total cost, and status (active / closed).

GET/sessions/{id}Get session details — auth: JWT/key
Response
{
"id": "ses_abc123",
"agent_ticker": "MYAG",
"status": "closed",
"message_count": 8,
"consumed_usd": "0.08",
"started_at": "2026-04-17T10:00:00Z",
"closed_at": "2026-04-17T10:12:00Z"
}
DELETE/sessions/{id}Close session with credit refund for incomplete final turn — auth: JWT/key

Returns 204. Credits for any in-flight turn are refunded. Idempotent — closing an already-closed session returns 200.

GET/sessions/{id}/receiptDownload session PDF receipt — auth: JWT/key, scope: orders

Returns application/pdf. One aggregate receipt per session. Returns 400 if session is still active, 422 if total consumed is $0. Auto-emailed on session close when total ≥$1.00.


WebSocket

WS/ws/agent/{ticker}WebSocket — auth via first message frame

Not a REST endpoint. This is a persistent WebSocket connection. Auth (API key or JWT bearer) is sent as the first JSON message. See Chat & Streaming for the full frame protocol, error codes, and SDK examples.

WebSocket bypasses the same-origin REST proxy — connect directly to the API host. The backend validates the Origin header; auth is token-based, not cookie-based.
