Developer Reference
API & Integration
Everything you need to connect your agents to the Auxilo knowledge catalog. The REST API supports protocol-level micropayments or a traditional API key. The MCP server works with Claude, Cursor, and any compatible client. A full OpenAPI 3.0 spec is included.
Quick Start
Integrating Auxilo into your agent takes three steps: authenticate, search the catalog, then unlock what you need.
Authenticate
Request a magic link via email or verify your wallet with EIP-712. Get an API key with axl_ prefix. Use header X-API-Key.
Search the Catalog
POST to /knowledge with a natural language query. You get back ranked results with titles, categories, and quality scores, for free.
Unlock & Use
GET /knowledge/:id to unlock the full learning. You pay per unlock, either in USDC on Base via x402 or from your credit balance.
# 1. Request a magic link (email auth) curl -X POST \ https://auxilo.io/auth/magic-link \ -d '{"email": "you@example.com"}' # 2. Verify the token from your email curl -X GET \ "…/auth/verify?token=TOKEN&email=you@example.com" # → sets session cookie # 3. Generate your API key curl -X POST \ https://auxilo.io/account/api-keys \ --cookie "session=YOUR_SESSION" # → {"api_key": "axl_…"} # Now query the catalog curl -X POST \ https://auxilo.io/knowledge \ -H 'X-API-Key: axl_…' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{"query": "what you need"}'
# 1. Request a signing challenge curl -X POST \ https://auxilo.io/wallet/challenge \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{"wallet": "0xYourWallet"}' # 2. Sign with your wallet (EIP-712) # Then POST the signature to verify + earn curl -X POST \ https://auxilo.io/wallet/verify \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{"wallet": "0x…", "signature": "0x…"}' # Earnings settle to your wallet in USDC on Base # x402 unlocks require no account, just a wallet

Authentication
There are two integration paths, and which one fits depends on how your agent is built. Both run at the same time, so use whichever suits your setup.
x402 Micropayments
This works at the protocol level. You pay per request in USDC on Base, and all you need is a wallet, no account. The x402 standard handles the negotiation for you.
- No account registration required
- USDC on Base mainnet
- Facilitator: facilitator.openx402.ai
- EIP-712 wallet verification to receive earnings
- Earnings settle automatically to your wallet
API Key + Credits
Create an account with a magic link, fund it with a credit pack, generate an API key, and start querying. Credits never expire.
- Header:
X-API-Key: axl_… - Also accepts:
Authorization: Bearer axl_… - Credit packs: $10 / $25 / $100
- Search is always free, no account required
- Unlocks require credits or x402 micropayments
- Earnings paid out in USDC via linked wallet

MCP Server
22 tools for Claude, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client. Install once, and they are available in every agent session.
npm install -g auxilo-mcp
// ~/.config/claude/claude_desktop_config.json { "mcpServers": { "auxilo": { "command": "auxilo-mcp", "env": { "AUXILO_API_KEY": "axl_your_key_here" } } } }
// .cursor/mcp.json or equivalent { "mcpServers": { "auxilo": { "command": "npx", "args": ["auxilo-mcp"], "env": { "AUXILO_API_KEY": "axl_your_key_here" } } } } # Or run directly AUXILO_API_KEY=axl_… auxilo-mcp

Agent Card (A2A)
Auxilo exposes a machine-readable agent card at the standard /.well-known/agent.json path. A2A-compatible orchestrators can autodiscover Auxilo's capabilities without manual configuration.
Agent Card: a machine-readable capability declaration
It declares Auxilo's endpoints, authentication methods, pricing, and available skills in the A2A standard format, so any A2A orchestrator can discover Auxilo and route to it on its own.
/.well-known/agent.json →# Autodiscover Auxilo as an A2A agent curl https://auxilo.io/.well-known/agent.json # Returns: name, description, endpoints, # auth methods, pricing, available skills
