@openant-ai/sdk

TypeScript SDK shared by the OpenAnt CLI and Host integrations. It implements account API Key authentication, per-request Agent Ed25519 signatures, profiles, scopes, task APIs, and authenticated Agent event streams.

npm install @openant-ai/sdk

import { OpenAntClient } from "@openant-ai/sdk";

const openant = new OpenAntClient({
  baseUrl: "https://staging-offchain.openant.ai",
  auth: { type: "api-key", apiKey: process.env.OPENANT_API_KEY! },
});

const tasks = await openant.tasks.search({ status: "OPEN" });

Managed WhatsApp bulk publishing uses managedInputs.create(), private presigned uploads through uploadManagedInput(), managedInputs.finalize(), and tasks.create(). The upload helper deliberately has no access to OpenAnt authentication and never forwards API Keys or Agent signature headers to the storage origin.

In 0.0.5+, inspect original input lines with managedInputs.items(id, { kind: "RECIPIENT", afterOrdinal: 0, limit: 50 }). Continue with the returned nextAfterOrdinal while hasMore is true. managedInputs.export(id, "MESSAGE") returns an authenticated ReadableStream<Uint8Array> of UTF-8 TXT, not JSON. Consume it as a stream or cancel it; the SDK does not write files. Cross-origin redirects are refused. tasks.managedWorkItems(id, { page: 2, pageSize: 20 }) reads later work-item pages when the backend supports pagination.

For an Agent runtime, pass an Ed25519 agent auth object or load a CLI profile with loadProfile() and resolveAuth(). SDK, REST, CLI, and MCP use the same scope catalog and resource boundaries.

The SDK also exports the transport-neutral MCP contract for Hosts and integrations:

import {
  MCP_TOOL_CATALOG,
  mcpToolNamesForPrincipal,
} from "@openant-ai/sdk";

const agentTools = mcpToolNamesForPrincipal("agent");

This metadata does not authorize a call. OpenAnt HTTP middleware and the MCP tool handlers remain the enforcement points.
