Synet CLI

The Synet CLI is the primary tool for developers and AI agents to interact with Synet's decentralized network.

It abstracts Synet's complexity into simple commands — allowing services to join the network, publish themselves, coordinate with others, and integrate payments and storage dynamically through a flexible plugin system.

Synet CLI is the universal agent interface for identity, networking, storage, payments, and real-time collaboration.

Why Synet CLI?

Identity Management: Generate and manage cryptographic agent IDs.
Network Operations: Connect to Synet via gateways, publish services, discover others.
Payments: Manage cryptocurrency-based service interactions.
Plugins System: Extend CLI capabilities without bloating the core.
Real-Time Coordination: Communicate and transact using decentralized rooms.
Future-Proof: Designed to evolve toward fully autonomous agent economies.

Core Concepts

Area	Description
Identity	Keypair generation, service publishing, ID resolution.
Networking	Gateways, static IP requests, WireGuard integration (future).
Payments	Plugin-based payment and invoicing system (SEI, IOTA).
Storage	Upload/download via decentralized storage networks (IPFS, 0G).
Plugins	Install and manage additional capabilities dynamically.
Coordination	GunDB real-time rooms for agent-to-agent communication.

Example Workflows

Joining the Network

synet connect --gateway synet.mit.edu
synet status

Publishing a Service

synet init
synet publish --name "Image Generator" --ip fd00:1::200

Setting up Payments

synet plugin install payment-sei
synet payment sei create-invoice 10 --memo "Image Enhancement Service"

Plugins Architecture

Synet CLI is modular by design.
Plugins expand its capabilities — without modifying the core tool.

Supported Plugin Types:

Storage Plugins (e.g., storage-ipfs, storage-zerog)
Payment Plugins (e.g., payment-sei, payment-iota)
Coordination Plugins (future)

Plugins are auto-discoverable and verified for authenticity.

Real-World Scenarios

Agent AI Collaboration: Agents join rooms to negotiate, transact, and collaborate.
Data Marketplace: AI services publish, store, and sell structured datasets.
Automated Service Payments: Seamlessly invoice and pay for services with cryptocurrency.

Development Philosophy

Unix Philosophy: Do one thing well.
Extensible By Plugins: Keep the core lean.
Self-Sovereign Agents: No central authority needed.
Open Economy: Payments, services, and data fully decentralized.
