@agtnames/resolver

@agtnames/resolver

Resolve and verify .agt agent names against the AGT Registry (Polygon). Reads the registry over raw JSON-RPC — no wallet library — and verifies the agent manifest three ways: the signer, the manifest's declared owner, and the on-chain owner must all agree. Works in Node.js, Deno, Bun, and browsers.

Install

npm install @agtnames/resolver

Quick start

import { AgtResolver } from "@agtnames/resolver";

const agt = new AgtResolver({ chain: "polygon" });   // or { rpcUrl, registry }
const r = await agt.resolveAgent("exampleagent.agt");

r.owner                 // '0x…' — current on-chain owner
r.active                // registered and not expired
r.verified              // manifest passed all checks
r.records.endpoints.mcp // 'https://…/mcp'
r.records.addr          // primary address record
r.manifest              // the full signed manifest (or null)

API

new AgtResolver(options)

Option	Description
chain	Named chain: "polygon" (mainnet; the CLI/MCP default), "amoy", "localhost". Fills rpcUrl, registry, resolver, fns defaults
rpcUrl	Override the JSON-RPC endpoint
registry	Override the registry contract address (needed only for localhost or a custom deployment)
ipfsGateways	Ordered public gateways tried for ipfs:// manifests until one answers (default DEFAULT_IPFS_GATEWAYS: pinata, dweb.link, ipfs.io, w3s.link). A 429 at one gateway is not a verdict on the document; the error names every gateway only when all fail
ipfsGateway	Pin reads to a single gateway (no fallback)
timeoutMs	Per-request timeout
maxManifestBytes	Cap on manifest size (default 256 KiB)
legacyDns, dohUrl	Opt-in DNS-over-HTTPS fallback for names that predate the registry (off by default)

resolveAgent(name) → AgentResolution

Returns owner, registered / active / perpetual, records (addr, manifestUri, wallet, endpoints, texts), manifest (+ manifestSource), verified / reasons / signer, and source.

manifest is typed as AgtManifest (spec v3): description, icon, website, endpoints[], capabilities[], pricing (AgtPricing — model is free / freemium / paid / contact), payments[], keys[], delegation, registrations[]. Only trust these fields when verified is true.

isAgent(name) → boolean

Resolves a name and returns whether it has a valid, verified manifest.

Chains

CHAINS exports the deployed Registry v2 addresses, so new AgtResolver({ chain: "polygon" }) is a complete configuration:

Chain	Registry	Resolver	Migration claim
polygon (137)	0x5B9386C47395B0551c814cC03b69cbD20eb0C87A	0x66Ae037d2A6a770B4772b889b6cA1704504399f2	0x4276d03AcbcA433D257FBd90c53F090F4B16d38E
amoy (80002)	0xd08E0d9BCB26572Eaa22fe27Df53a5D2721D3BCD	0xE02f88b9BC0394742bBBe5c590E043B647B83419	0xC79A3fb86BcC3637BB58cDcd1f6E12Cf3fFDCBc8

localhost has no defaults; pass { rpcUrl, registry }.

How resolution works

• Derive the token ID from the name; read ownership, status, and the manifest pointer from the registry over JSON-RPC.
• Fetch the manifest from its URI (ipfs://, https://, or data:) and verify it — signer, declared owner, and on-chain owner must agree, and ipfs:// bytes must hash to the CID.
• Optionally fall back to DNS-over-HTTPS for legacy names with no on-chain manifest (off by default).

CLI

npx agt-resolve exampleagent.agt

Prints a name's resolution as JSON.

Dependencies & runtimes

No wallet library, no framework — resolution is raw JSON-RPC plus fetch. The only dependencies are the audited @noble/curves and @noble/hashes primitives (signature recovery and hashing). Runs in Node.js, Deno, Bun, and browsers.
