# KnowMint
[](LICENSE)
[](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/)
**The first knowledge marketplace where AI agents pay directly with SOL — autonomously.**
Humans list tacit knowledge, experiential insights, and battle-tested solutions. AI agents (Claude Code, ElizaOS, AgentKit) autonomously discover, evaluate, and purchase via the x402 protocol — paying sellers directly via non-custodial Solana P2P transfers. No private keys held by the platform.
> Human-in-the-loop mode also available: agent searches and proposes, you approve. Same marketplace, your choice of autonomy level.
Three access layers: **Web UI** / **CLI (`km`)** / **REST API + MCP Server**
### Web UI

### CLI / MCP (for AI Agents)

---
## Why KnowMint
- **First for agentic payments** — AI agents autonomously pay with SOL via x402 protocol. No human required to complete a purchase
- **x402 autonomous purchasing** — HTTP 402 + Solana P2P direct transfer. Agent finds, pays, and accesses knowledge end-to-end
- **Human-in-the-loop also available** — Agent proposes, you approve. Same marketplace, your choice of autonomy level
- **Human → AI knowledge supply** — Sell experiential and tacit knowledge that AI cannot self-generate
- **Non-custodial payments** — Buyer-to-seller P2P direct transfer on Solana (no platform custody)

## For AI Agents
### Getting an API Key
**For AI agents (wallet-based, no web UI needed):**
1. `POST /api/v1/auth/challenge` with `{ "wallet": "<base58>", "purpose": "register" }`
2. Sign the returned `message` with your Solana wallet
3. `POST /api/v1/auth/register` with `{ "wallet", "signature", "nonce" }`
4. Receive `{ "api_key": "km_...", "user_id", "wallet" }` — ready to use
**For humans (web UI):**
1. Sign up at [knowmint.shop](https://knowmint.shop) (or your self-hosted instance)
2. Go to **Profile → API Keys**
3. Create a key with `read` or `write` permission
4. Copy the key — it is shown only once
### MCP Server
Add to `~/.claude/mcp.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"knowmint": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["--yes", "--package", "@knowmint/mcp-server@0.1.2", "mcp-server"],
"env": {
"KM_BASE_URL": "https://knowmint.shop"
}
}
}
}
```
> **No API key needed for initial setup.** The agent can self-register using `km_register`.
#### Self-Registration (No Prior Account Needed)
1. Prepare a Solana keypair file (e.g. `~/.config/solana/id.json`)
2. Call `km_register` with the keypair path — the tool handles challenge, signature, and registration automatically
3. The API key is saved to `~/.km/config.json` and used for all subsequent calls
```
km_register(keypair_path: "~/.config/solana/id.json")
→ POST /api/v1/auth/challenge (get nonce)
→ Sign message with keypair
→ POST /api/v1/auth/register (get API key)
→ Saved to ~/.km/config.json — ready to use
```
To re-login to an existing account: `km_wallet_login(keypair_path: "...")`.
#### Tool Reference
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| `km_register` | **Register a new account with a Solana keypair and get an API key** |
| `km_wallet_login` | **Re-login to an existing account and get a new API key** |
| `km_search` | Search knowledge |
| `km_get_detail` | Get knowledge details |
| `km_purchase` | Purchase knowledge (Solana transfer) |
| `km_get_content` | Get purchased content (x402 gate) |
| `km_get_version_history` | Get version history |
| `km_publish` | Publish knowledge |
#### x402 Autonomous Purchase Flow
```
km_get_content()
→ HTTP 402 (payment_required)
→ Solana transfer
→ Retry with payment_proof
→ Content returned
```
> **Security**: Do not place config files in public repos or synced directories. Rotate keys regularly.
> - Search & read only (`km_search` / `km_get_detail` / `km_get_content`) → `read` permission key
> - Purchase & publish (`km_purchase` / `km_publish`) → `write` permission key
### CLI (`km`)
Standalone Node.js CLI. Config stored in `~/.km/config.json`.
#### Self-Registration
```bash
# Register with an existing Solana keypair (creates account + saves API key)
km register --keypair ~/.config/solana/id.json
# Register with auto-generated keypair (new wallet created automatically)
km register
# Re-login to an existing account
km wallet-login --keypair ~/.config/solana/id.json
```
#### Usage
```bash
km login --base-url https://knowmint.shop # Manual API key input (if already have one)
km search "prompt engineering"
km install <knowledge_id> --tx-hash <solana_tx_hash> --deploy-to claude
km publish prompt ./prompt.md --price 0.5SOL --tags "seo,marketing"
km my purchases
```
`--deploy-to claude,opencode` auto-deploys purchased knowledge to your tools.
See `cli/README.md` for full documentation.

## For Humans
The web UI features a retro RPG-style design (Dragon Quest inspired). Humans can:
- **List** knowledge with SOL pricing, previews, and tags
- **Browse** a marketplace of prompts, tool definitions, datasets, and APIs
- **Purchase** with Phantom or Solflare wallet
- **Track** sales, purchases, and feedback on a personal dashboard
