Registration (HTTP)

Register your agent on-chain with a direct HTTP/HTTPS URL to your registration file.

Overview

HTTP registration is useful when:

• You host your own registration files
• You want full control over file serving
• You prefer traditional hosting over IPFS

Step-by-Step Process

1. Configure Your Agent

Python

# Create and configure your agent
agent = sdk.createAgent(
    name="My AI Agent",
    description="Agent description",
    image="https://example.com/image.png"
)

agent.setMCP("https://mcp.example.com/")
agent.setA2A("https://a2a.example.com/agent.json")
agent.setENS("myagent.eth")
agent.setTrust(reputation=True)

TypeScript

// Create and configure your agent
const agent = sdk.createAgent(
  'My AI Agent',
  'Agent description',
  'https://example.com/image.png'
);

await agent.setMCP('https://mcp.example.com/');
await agent.setA2A('https://a2a.example.com/agent.json');
agent.setENS('myagent.eth');
agent.setTrust(true); // reputation=true

2. Generate Registration File Content

Get the JSON content from the SDK:

Python

# Get the registration file object
registration_file = agent.registrationFile()

# Convert to dictionary (JSON-ready)
registration_data = registration_file.to_dict()

# Or get as formatted JSON string
json_content = str(registration_file)  # Pretty-printed JSON

TypeScript

// Get the registration file object
const registrationFile = agent.getRegistrationFile();

// Convert to JSON string (pretty-printed)
const jsonContent = JSON.stringify(registrationFile, null, 2);

// Or get as object
const registrationData = registrationFile;

3. Host the Registration File

Save the JSON content to your web server:

Python

# Save to file
with open("my-agent.json", "w") as f:
    f.write(json_content)

# Upload to your web server
# Example URLs:
# https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent.json
# https://yourusername.github.io/agents/my-agent.json

TypeScript

// Save to file (Node.js)
import * as fs from 'fs';

fs.writeFileSync('my-agent.json', jsonContent, 'utf8');

// Upload to your web server
// Example URLs:
// https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent.json
// https://yourusername.github.io/agents/my-agent.json

4. Register On-Chain

Python

# Register with your HTTP URL
agent.registerHTTP("https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent.json")

print(f"Agent registered: {agent.agentId}")
print(f"Agent URI: {agent.agentURI}")  # https://yourdomain.com/...

TypeScript

// Register with your HTTP URL (async in TypeScript)
const registrationFile = await agent.registerHTTP('https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent.json');

console.log(`Agent registered: ${registrationFile.agentId}`);
console.log(`Agent URI: ${registrationFile.agentURI}`); // https://yourdomain.com/...

Complete Example

Python

from agent0_sdk import SDK

# Initialize SDK
sdk = SDK(
    chainId=11155111,
    rpcUrl="https://sepolia.infura.io/v3/YOUR_PROJECT_ID",
    signer=private_key
)

# 1. Configure agent
agent = sdk.createAgent(
    name="My AI Agent",
    description="A helpful AI assistant",
    image="https://example.com/agent.png"
)
agent.setMCP("https://mcp.example.com/")
agent.setA2A("https://a2a.example.com/agent.json")

# 2. Generate registration file
registration_data = agent.registrationFile().to_dict()
json_content = str(agent.registrationFile())

# 3. Save and upload to your server
with open("my-agent.json", "w") as f:
    f.write(json_content)
# Upload to: https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent.json

# 4. Register on-chain
agent.registerHTTP("https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent.json")

print(f"✅ Agent registered: {agent.agentId}")

TypeScript

import { SDK } from 'agent0-sdk';
import * as fs from 'fs';

// Initialize SDK
const sdk = new SDK({
  chainId: 11155111,
  rpcUrl: 'https://sepolia.infura.io/v3/YOUR_PROJECT_ID',
  signer: privateKey,
});

// 1. Configure agent
const agent = sdk.createAgent(
  'My AI Agent',
  'A helpful AI assistant',
  'https://example.com/agent.png'
);
await agent.setMCP('https://mcp.example.com/');
await agent.setA2A('https://a2a.example.com/agent.json');

// 2. Generate registration file
const registrationData = agent.getRegistrationFile();
const jsonContent = JSON.stringify(registrationData, null, 2);

// 3. Save and upload to your server
fs.writeFileSync('my-agent.json', jsonContent, 'utf8');
// Upload to: https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent.json

// 4. Register on-chain (async in TypeScript)
const registrationFile = await agent.registerHTTP('https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent.json');

console.log(`✅ Agent registered: ${registrationFile.agentId}`);

Update Registration

To update an agent:

Python

# 1. Load existing agent
agent = sdk.loadAgent("11155111:123")

# 2. Modify configuration
agent.updateInfo(description="Updated description")
agent.setMCP("https://new-mcp.example.com")

# 3. Generate new registration file
json_content = str(agent.registrationFile())

# 4. Upload updated file to your server
with open("my-agent-updated.json", "w") as f:
    f.write(json_content)

# 5. Update URI on-chain (only if the URI has changed)
agent.setAgentUri("https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent-updated.json")

TypeScript

// 1. Load existing agent (async in TypeScript)
const agent = await sdk.loadAgent('11155111:123');

// 2. Modify configuration
agent.updateInfo(undefined, 'Updated description');
await agent.setMCP('https://new-mcp.example.com');

// 3. Generate new registration file
const jsonContent = JSON.stringify(agent.getRegistrationFile(), null, 2);

// 4. Upload updated file to your server
fs.writeFileSync('my-agent-updated.json', jsonContent, 'utf8');

// 5. Update URI on-chain (only if the URI has changed) - async in TypeScript
await agent.setAgentUri('https://yourdomain.com/agents/my-agent-updated.json');

Registration File Format
