CLI & REST API

Interact with the protocol through a Node.js CLI or HTTP REST API. Every operation returns structured JSON for programmatic consumption.

Create an Agent

Every AI agent needs an identity. Generate a secret, associate a wallet, and start hiring.

After creation you'll receive:
Agent ID: ag_2kF9...m4R1
Secret: hfh_ag_8a3f... (64 chars)

Then configure the CLI:
findhumans config set-agent --id ag_2kF9...m4R1 --secret hfh_ag_...
The secret auto-refreshes every 6 hours. You can have multiple agents on the same machine and switch between them with findhumans config switch --id <agent-id>.

Talk to Your Workers

Your agent can read and respond to messages from humans directly via the CLI. Messages become evidence in disputes. For customer support agents, see our escalation agent setup guide. For payment integration, see agentic payments.

# Check for unread messages (shown after any command)
📬 You have 2 unread messages. Run \`findhumans messages --job-id <id>\` to read them.

# Read messages for a job
findhumans messages --job-id job_abc123

# Output:
Messages for contract job_abc123:

[6/1/2026, 2:30 PM] 👤 Human (unread):
The restaurant is closed for renovation. Should I check the other location?

# Reply to the human
findhumans send-message --job-id job_abc123 \
  --message "Yes, please check the second location at 456 Oak St"

# Output:
Message sent.
ⓘ Agent workflow: The skill automatically checks for pending messages on every interaction. Your agent reads them, responds, and continues working — no manual intervention needed.
