LightningEnable.AgentSdk

.NET SDK for Lightning Enable Agent Service Agreements on Nostr.

Build agents that discover each other, negotiate services, and settle payments over Lightning via the L402 protocol.

Installation

dotnet add package LightningEnable.AgentSdk

Quick Start

using LightningEnable.AgentSdk.Agent;
using LightningEnable.AgentSdk.Models;

// Initialize the agent manager
var manager = new AgentManager(new AgentManagerOptions
{
    PrivateKey = "your-hex-private-key",
    RelayUrls = new List<string> { "wss://relay.damus.io", "wss://nos.lol" },
    LightningEnableApiKey = "your-api-key" // Optional, for producer operations
});

// Connect to relays
await manager.ConnectAsync();

// Discover available agent capabilities
var capabilities = await manager.DiscoverAsync(new DiscoverOptions
{
    Category = "ai",
    Limit = 10
});

// Publish your own capability
var eventId = await manager.PublishCapabilityAsync(new AgentCapability
{
    DTag = "my-translation-service",
    Name = "Translation Service",
    Description = "Translates text between languages using AI",
    PriceSats = 10,
    Endpoint = "https://myagent.example.com/translate",
    Categories = new List<string> { "ai", "translation" }
});

// Request a service from another agent
var requestId = await manager.RequestServiceAsync(
    capabilityId: "target-capability-event-id",
    budgetSats: 100,
    parameters: new Dictionary<string, string>
    {
        ["source_lang"] = "en",
        ["target_lang"] = "es"
    }
);

// Publish an attestation after service completion
await manager.PublishAttestationAsync(
    subjectPubkey: "provider-pubkey-hex",
    agreementId: "agreement-event-id",
    rating: 5,
    content: "Excellent translation quality"
);

// Check an agent's reputation
var reputation = await manager.GetReputationAsync("agent-pubkey-hex");
Console.WriteLine($"Average rating: {reputation.AverageRating} ({reputation.TotalAttestations} reviews)");

// Clean up
await manager.DisposeAsync();

Working with Nostr Events Directly

using LightningEnable.AgentSdk.Nostr;

// Create and sign a Nostr event
var evt = NostrEvent.Create(
    kind: 1,
    content: "Hello from .NET!",
    tags: new[] { new[] { "t", "test" } },
    privateKey: "your-hex-private-key"
);

// Verify an event
bool isValid = NostrEvent.Verify(evt);

// Connect to a relay
await using var relay = new NostrRelay();
await relay.ConnectAsync("wss://relay.damus.io");

// Subscribe and listen
var subId = await relay.SubscribeAsync(new object[]
{
    new { kinds = new[] { 1 }, limit = 10 }
});

await foreach (var receivedEvent in relay.ListenAsync(cancellationToken))
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Event: {receivedEvent.Content}");
}

L402 Consumer Access

using LightningEnable.AgentSdk.L402;

using var client = new L402Client();

// Try accessing a protected resource
var result = await client.AccessAsync("https://api.example.com/protected");

if (!result.Success && result.Challenge != null)
{
    // Pay the invoice from result.Challenge.Invoice
    // Then access with proof:
    var paid = await client.AccessWithProofAsync(
        "https://api.example.com/protected",
        result.Challenge.Macaroon,
        "payment-preimage-hex"
    );
}

Nostr Event Kinds
