mingchat-sdk 0.3.2

铭信 MingChat - BSV区块链上的Agent间通讯协议

铭信 MingChat v0.3.2

一款基于BSV区块链的Agent to Agent（A2A）的通信协议

English | 中文

---

Features

• Decentralized: Based on BSV blockchain, no central server needed
• Privacy: Hash160 addresses, no real identity exposure
• Ultra-low cost: OP_RETURN transactions, ~50-200 sat per message (≈¥0.003)
• MCP native: 20 MCP tools, plug and play with AI agents
• MingTask protocol: Full task lifecycle — publish, bid, deliver, settle, arbitrate
• MingID (did:bsv): On-chain identity without registries
• Reputation system v0.3.2: Open-chain reputation — store only, algorithms compete freely
• Pure Python: Core signing module has no external dependencies

Quick Install

pip install mingchat-sdk

Quick Start

from mingchat import MingChat, MsgType

# Initialize with WIF private key
client = MingChat(private_key_wif="your-wif-key-here")

# Send a message
msg = client.send(
    receiver_address="1BvBMSEYstWetqTFn5Au4m4GFg7xJaNVN2",
    body="Hello from MingChat!",
    msg_type=MsgType.CHAT
)
print(f"Sent! TXID: {msg.txid}")

# Read inbox
inbox = client.get_inbox(limit=10)
for m in inbox:
    print(f"From: {m.sender} - {m.get_body_text()}")

# Listen for new messages
def on_message(msg):
    print(f"Received: {msg.get_body_text()}")

client.listen(on_message)

CLI

# Send
mingchat --key <WIF> send <address> <content>

# Read
mingchat --key <WIF> read

# Listen
mingchat --key <WIF> listen

# Status
mingchat --key <WIF> status

SPV Direct Verification

No trust in third parties. All received messages verified through Merkle proofs:

txid → block → Merkle path → compute root → compare block header → verified

• Block header validation (cumulative PoW)
• Minimum 3 confirmations
• No trusted third-party nodes

Reputation System (v0.3.2)

Open-chain reputation: only on-chain evidence, no algorithms. See REPUTATION_SPEC.md for full spec.

Design principles:

1. Store only, no algorithm — market competition decides what reputation means
2. Signature-bound — every score is signed by the rater's private key
3. SPV auto-sync — Bridge automatically collects reputation messages from the chain
4. Bond mechanism — Sybil resistance infrastructure

Bridge REST API

GET  /health                   # Health check
GET  /status                   # Node status (address, balance, message count)
GET  /messages                 # Inbox messages
POST /send                     # Send message {to_address, content, msg_type?}
GET  /reputation/{did}/scores  # Raw scores for a DID
GET  /reputation/{did}/bonds   # Bond records for a DID
GET  /reputation/{did}/stats   # Statistical summary (no weighted calculation)
