AgentBox Provision

Provision a dedicated AI agent VM by paying $5 USDC (Solana) via x402. Each VM runs an OpenClaw AI gateway with HTTPS, web terminal, and Solana wallet. Instances last 7 days (extendable).

Base URL: https://api.agentbox.fyi

Prerequisites

npm install @x402/fetch @x402/svm @solana/kit

Requires a Solana wallet file (solana-keygen JSON format: 64-byte array) with USDC funds.

1. Provision

Create provision.mjs and run with node provision.mjs /path/to/wallet.json [name]:

import { readFileSync } from "node:fs";
import { createKeyPairSignerFromBytes } from "@solana/kit";
import { x402Client, wrapFetchWithPayment } from "@x402/fetch";
import { registerExactSvmScheme } from "@x402/svm/exact/client";

const keypairBytes = new Uint8Array(
  JSON.parse(readFileSync(process.argv[2], "utf8")),
);
const signer = await createKeyPairSignerFromBytes(keypairBytes);

const client = new x402Client();
registerExactSvmScheme(client, { signer });
const x402Fetch = wrapFetchWithPayment(fetch, client);

const res = await x402Fetch("https://api.agentbox.fyi/provision", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify(process.argv[3] ? { name: process.argv[3] } : {}),
});
console.log(JSON.stringify(await res.json(), null, 2));

Pays $5 USDC automatically via x402. Name is optional (auto-generated if omitted), must be DNS-safe: lowercase alphanumeric + hyphens, 3-63 chars.

Response (201):

{
  "id": 12345678,
  "name": "boreal-enigma",
  "status": "provisioning",
  "gatewayToken": "pending",
  "accessToken": "eyJhbGci...",
  "expiresAt": "2026-03-11T10:00:00.000Z"
}

Save id, name, and accessToken.

2. Poll until running

curl -s https://api.agentbox.fyi/provision/INSTANCE_ID \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN"

Poll every 15 seconds. Boot takes 2-4 minutes.

Status progression: provisioning -> running. The response also includes a provisioningStep field with granular sub-states (vm_created, configuring, wallet_created, openclaw_ready, services_starting). Most polls will return the same status - this is normal.

When status is "running", the response includes the real gatewayToken:

{
  "status": "running",
  "gatewayToken": "a58310a5f1f07...",
  "chatUrl": "https://boreal-enigma.agentbox.fyi/chat#token=...",
  "terminalUrl": "https://boreal-enigma.agentbox.fyi/terminal/..."
}

Save gatewayToken for API interaction.

3. Chat completions

Send messages using the OpenAI-compatible API on the VM:

curl -s https://NAME.agentbox.fyi/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer GATEWAY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, what can you do?"}]}'

Replace NAME with the instance name and GATEWAY_TOKEN with gatewayToken from the poll response. Returns standard OpenAI chat completions JSON (non-streaming).

Each request is stateless. For multi-turn conversations, include the full message history:

curl -s https://NAME.agentbox.fyi/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer GATEWAY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"messages": [
    {"role": "user", "content": "What is 2+2?"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "4"},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Multiply that by 10"}
  ]}'

The response also includes additional fields beyond those shown in examples (ownerWallet, ip, vmWallet, nftMint, terminalToken, provisioningStep, createdAt). These can be safely ignored or stored as needed.

terminalUrl from the poll response opens a web terminal with shell access to the VM.

Extend

Add 7 more days ($5 USDC). Reuse the x402 client from step 1:

const res = await x402Fetch("https://api.agentbox.fyi/provision/INSTANCE_ID/extend", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { Authorization: "Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN" },
});

Returns updated instance with new expiresAt and accessToken. Maximum lifetime: 90 days.

List instances

List all instances owned by your wallet via Ed25519 signature:

import { createKeyPairFromBytes, signBytes, getAddressFromPublicKey } from "@solana/kit";

const keyPair = await createKeyPairFromBytes(keypairBytes);
const address = await getAddressFromPublicKey(keyPair.publicKey);
const timestamp = Date.now();
const message = `List AgentBox instances\nTimestamp: ${timestamp}`;
const signature = await signBytes(keyPair.privateKey, new TextEncoder().encode(message));
const sig64 = Buffer.from(signature).toString("base64");

const res = await fetch(
  `https://api.agentbox.fyi/provision?wallet=${address}&signature=${encodeURIComponent(sig64)}&timestamp=${timestamp}`
);

Returns { instances: [...] } including gatewayToken and terminalToken for running instances (authenticated by wallet signature - only the wallet owner can list their own instances). Timestamp must be within 5 minutes of server time.

Errors

HTTP	Meaning
402	Payment required (handled automatically by x402)
409	Instance name already taken
502	Provisioning failed (you are NOT charged)
