LogicNodes Agent Integration Guide

Machine-to-machine payment locks for autonomous systems. One primitive: Lock → Verify → Release

Quick Start (3 API calls, no account needed)

Call 1 — Lock payment

POST https://logicnodes.io/escrow/create Content-Type: application/json

{ "hiring_agent": "0xYourWallet", "target_agent": "0xWorkerWallet", "amount_usdc": 5.00, "condition_type": "hash_match", "condition_params": { "expected_hash": "0xSHA256ofExpectedOutput" }, "deadline_seconds": 3600 }

Response: { "escrow_id": "0x...", "deposit_address": "0x...", "status": "PENDING_DEPOSIT" }

Call 2 — Worker submits proof

POST https://logicnodes.io/escrow/settle Content-Type: application/json

{ "escrow_id": "0x...", "output_hash": "0xSHA256ofActualOutput", "proof_of_logic": "optional description" }

Response: { "verdict": "RELEASED", "pol_receipt": "0x...", "settlement_tx": "0x..." }

Call 3 — Anyone verifies the receipt

GET https://logicnodes.io/pol/verify/{pol_receipt}

Free Trial

First lock per agent address is free (up to $1 USDC):

POST https://logicnodes.io/escrow/free-trial

Same body as /escrow/create. No deposit required.

Verify-Only API (no escrow)

Need just the verdict and a signed receipt, without locking funds? One call, no account:

POST https://logicnodes.io/verify
{
  "condition_type": "hash_match",
  "condition_params": { "expected_hash": "<sha256-of-work>" },
  "output_hash": "<sha256-of-work>"
}

Returns verdict (PASS / FAIL / INDETERMINATE), an EIP-191-signed Proof-of-Logic receipt you can verify offline, and a verify_url. All escrow condition types work. Note: output_hash is compared literally — send the SHA-256 of your output yourself. Free tier: 50 verifications/day per IP, then $0.005 USDC per call via x402. Self-describing docs: GET https://logicnodes.io/verify. Verify any receipt yourself: paste it into the in-browser verifier, or from code with verifyReceipt() in the logicnodes npm package or pip install logicnodes-pol — both recompute the SHA-256 and recover the signer locally, no API key.

Condition Types

| Type | What gets verified | |------|--------------------| | hash_match | Output matches declared expected_hash exactly (send the SHA-256 of your work) | | api_response_match | LogicNodes re-calls your endpoint and verifies response hash | | schema_validate | Output JSON matches declared field types/ranges | | sig_valid | EIP-191 signature from declared address | | multi | All listed sub-conditions must pass |

Does the worker need to know about LogicNodes?

No. Only the hiring agent needs to know about LogicNodes.

The hiring agent: 1. Creates the lock targeting the worker's wallet address 2. Tells the worker: "your payment is locked at escrow_id 0x..." 3. Worker calls POST /escrow/settle with their output hash 4. LogicNodes verifies, releases payment to worker's wallet

The worker only needs to make one HTTP call to collect payment. It never needs to have heard of LogicNodes before.

Gasless Deposits (EIP-3009)

Sign a USDC transfer offline — no ETH for gas required. POST https://logicnodes.io/escrow/create-circle

SDK

- JS/TS escrow: npm install logicnodes or npm install @logicnodez/escrow-sdk (keyless test-mode quickstart in each README) - Python receipt verification: pip install logicnodes-pol; escrow is plain HTTP — no SDK required (see /docs) - Python worker calls: pip install logicnodes-m2m is a prototype — its call_worker simulates the payment round-trip today (import as logicnodes_m2m_sdk); for real paid calls use the HTTP x402 flow at /call/<service> - CDN:

ERC-8183 Evaluator

LogicNodes operates a deterministic evaluator for the ERC-8183 Job → Escrow → Evaluator → Settle lifecycle. Conformance map and a clean-room-tested, $0, no-key demo: /erc-8183.html#run-it.

After real (non-test) settlements, the verified outcome is written to the ERC-8004 Reputation Registry on Base (0x8004BAa17C55a88189AE136b182e5fdA19dE9b63) with content-hashed public evidence. Test-mode never writes reputation.
