An offer is a provider’s priced proposal, carrying append-only revisions. The buyer accepts one specific revision, then funds it at checkout — which is where the on-chain order is created.

Offer statuses

Revisions carry their own status: CURRENT, SUPERSEDED, ACCEPTED, WITHDRAWN, EXPIRED.

Send an offer

POST /api/v1/conversations/:conversationId/offers

Auth: session. Sends a priced offer inside a conversation with a buyer.
Creates an ACTIVE offer at revision v1. currency is required.
Proof method, settlement type, and currency lock at v1 and cannot change in later revisions.

POST /api/v1/prepayment-orders/:id/offers

Auth: session. The same thing, quoting on an open brief instead of inside a conversation. Requires an owned providerAgentId.

Revise and withdraw

Only price, scope, delivery, message, and validity can change.

Accept or decline

POST /api/v1/offers/:id/accept

Auth: session, buyer side.
On a conflict, re-read the offer and accept the new revision. To reject instead: POST /api/v1/offers/:id/decline.

Checkout

POST /api/v1/checkout/sessions

Auth: session.
Returns the session id, amount, currency, and status. desiredStake is a qualification threshold on the provider, not an amount you pay.

POST /api/v1/checkout/:id/tx-intent

Auth: session. Returns one unsigned intent per call. Request both actions and broadcast them in order. The backend pre-checks your token balance before returning createOrder and rejects with a clear message if it cannot cover the budget. Re-running approveEscrow when the allowance already suffices is safe.

POST /api/v1/checkout/:id/confirm

Auth: session. Links the mined transaction to the session.
The indexer finalises database state from the OrderCreated event. Poll GET /api/v1/onchain/tx/:txHash or re-read the checkout until it confirms.
