Commands

peaqos init

Interactive wizard that writes a .env file in the current working directory.

peaqos init                    # interactive (network, key, URLs, contract addresses)
peaqos init --non-interactive  # read all values from environment variables
peaqos init --force            # overwrite existing .env without confirmation

Example (interactive):

Network (mainnet, testnet) [mainnet]: mainnet
Private key source (paste, generate, wallet): generate
  Address:  0xAbCd...1234
  Key:      0xdeadbeef...

peaqos wallet

Manage OWS (Open Wallet Standard) wallets in the local encrypted vault (~/.ows/). Requires the optional OWS dependency: pip install peaq-os-cli[ows].

peaqos wallet create <name> [--words 12|24] [--json]
peaqos wallet import <name> (--mnemonic | --private-key-file <path>) [--index <n>] [--json]
peaqos wallet list [--json]
peaqos wallet show <name-or-id> [--json]
peaqos wallet export <name-or-id>
peaqos wallet delete <name-or-id>
peaqos wallet use <name-or-id>

wallet create — Generate a new mnemonic-backed wallet. Displays addresses for all supported chains (peaq, Base, Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, Cosmos, etc.). The mnemonic is never shown; use wallet export to retrieve it.

peaqos wallet create my-machine
peaqos wallet create my-machine --words 24   # 24-word mnemonic
peaqos wallet create my-machine --json       # JSON output

wallet import — Import an existing wallet from a BIP-39 mnemonic (hidden prompt) or a private key file.

peaqos wallet import recovered --mnemonic
peaqos wallet import from-file --private-key-file ./operator.key

wallet list — List all wallets in the vault. Shows Name, ID, peaq Address, Key Type, and Created date.

peaqos wallet list
peaqos wallet list --json   # full WalletInfo array

wallet show — Display full wallet details with addresses for every supported chain family.

peaqos wallet show operator
peaqos wallet show operator --json

wallet export — Export the recovery phrase or private key (requires confirmation).

peaqos wallet export my-machine

wallet delete — Securely delete a wallet from the vault (requires confirmation).

peaqos wallet delete my-machine

wallet use — Set a wallet as the active default by writing PEAQOS_OWS_WALLET to .env. Subsequent commands use this wallet via load_client().

peaqos wallet use operator

Migration from raw keys:

peaqos wallet import my-operator --private-key-file ./operator.key
peaqos wallet use my-operator
peaqos whoami   # address matches the original key

peaqos activate

Run the full machine onboarding flow end-to-end. Six steps: balance check → 2FA enrollment → gas-station funding → register on IdentityRegistry → mint machine NFT → write DID attributes.

Two modes:

• Self-managed — no proxy flags. The caller's own key signs every step and holds the resulting NFT.
• Proxy-managed — --for <machine-address> --machine-key <path> together. The operator funds and submits register / mint on behalf of the machine, then the machine key signs its own DID attributes (the peaq DID precompile enforces msg.sender == didAccount). The machine EOA holds the resulting NFT. Both flags are required together; supplying one alone is rejected with exit 1.

peaqos activate                                          # self mode
peaqos activate --for 0xMachine --machine-key ./m.key    # proxy mode

Flags:

Flag	Purpose
--for	Machine EOA address. Presence switches to proxy mode.
--machine-key	Path to a file with the machine's 0x-prefixed hex private key.
--doc-url	Documentation URL written to the machine DID.
--data-api	Raw data API URL written to the machine DID.
--visibility	public (default) / private / onchain.
--skip-funding	Skip balance check, 2FA, and gas-station funding (steps 1–3).

Private keys must be supplied via file path (--machine-key). Inline key flags are intentionally unsupported — reading from a file keeps the key out of shell history and ps output.

Environment:

Connection / caller identity:

Variable	Purpose
PEAQOS_PRIVATE_KEY	Operator private key (self or proxy mode caller).
PEAQOS_NETWORK	mainnet or testnet.
PEAQOS_RPC_URL	Override the default RPC endpoint for the network.
PEAQOS_GAS_STATION_URL	Gas-station base URL for steps 2–3.

Contract addresses (all required — missing any yields exit 3):

Variable	Contract
IDENTITY_REGISTRY_ADDRESS	IdentityRegistry (step 4 register).
IDENTITY_STAKING_ADDRESS	Identity staking contract.
EVENT_REGISTRY_ADDRESS	Event registry contract.
MACHINE_NFT_ADDRESS	Machine NFT (step 5 mint).
DID_REGISTRY_ADDRESS	DID registry contract.
BATCH_PRECOMPILE_ADDRESS	peaq batch precompile (step 6 batched DID writes).

Idempotent rerun. Every mutating step does a read-before-write precheck: registration consults machineIdOfOwner, mint consults token_id_of + NFT ownerOf, DID writes consult readAttribute. Re-running activate against on-chain state that is already complete submits no transactions and exits 0. A TOCTOU revert (AlreadyRegistered / AlreadyExists) is also recovered as skip rather than surfaced as a network error.

Proxy preconditions. Proxy mode requires the operator to already be registered on IdentityRegistry (i.e. have called activate in self mode first). If not, the command fails with exit 2 (network/chain error) before spending any gas.

Output streams. The final summary (Machine ID, Token ID, DIDs; plus Machine Address and Operator DID in proxy mode) is written to stdout so it can be piped / captured. Progress lines ([1/6], [2/6], …) and per-step info/warning messages go to stderr. Integration tests assert on result.stdout.

Idempotency log. Every step appends a JSONL entry to ./peaqos.log in the working directory with fields like step, status (pending / skipped / failed / confirmed), mode, machine_id, tx_hash, and (for DID writes) machine_did_tx_count=6 / proxy_did_tx_count=2. This file is both a resume marker for partial failures and the audit trail.

Example — first run (self mode):

$ peaqos activate > out.txt 2> err.txt ; echo "exit: $?"
exit: 0

$ cat out.txt
Machine activated successfully.
  Machine ID:   42
  Token ID:     11
  Machine DID:  did:peaq:0xDC5b20847F43d67928F49Cd4f85D696b5A7617B5

$ cat err.txt
[1/6] Balance check
  Operator 0xDC5b...17B5: 1.0000 PEAQ (sufficient)
[2/6] 2FA enrollment - skipped (all wallets funded)
[3/6] Fund from Gas Station - skipped (all wallets funded)
[4/6] Register machine
  Registered. machine_id=42
[5/6] Mint NFT
  Minted NFT for machine_id=42 -> token_id=11 (tx 0xminttx...)
[6/6] Write DID attributes
  Wrote 6 machine DID attributes (tx 0xdidtx...)

Example — rerun is a no-op (exit 0, no tx submitted):

$ peaqos activate 2>&1 1>/dev/null   # stderr only, shows skip path
[1/6] Balance check
  Operator 0xDC5b...17B5: 1.0000 PEAQ (sufficient)
[2/6] 2FA enrollment - skipped (all wallets funded)
[3/6] Fund from Gas Station - skipped (all wallets funded)
[4/6] Register machine
  Already registered (machine_id=42). Skipping.
[5/6] Mint NFT
  Already minted (token_id=11). Skipping.
[6/6] Write DID attributes
  Machine DID attributes already on chain. Skipping.

The stdout summary stays the same on rerun; only the stderr skip messages and the peaqos.log entries flip from confirmed to skipped.

Example — peaqos.log (JSONL, one line per step):

{"step":"register","status":"confirmed","mode":"self","address":"0xDC5b...","machine_id":42,"ts":"2026-04-23T15:00:18Z"}
{"step":"mint_nft","status":"confirmed","machine_id":42,"recipient":"0xDC5b...","token_id":11,"tx_hash":"0xminttx...","ts":"..."}
{"step":"machine_did","status":"confirmed","mode":"self","machine_id":42,"token_id":11,"operator_did":"","machine_did_tx_count":6,"tx_hash":"0xdidtx...","ts":"..."}

On a rerun, the same three rows appear with "status":"skipped" and, for the DID row, "recovered_from":"AttributeAlreadyOnChain".

peaqos show machine

Display the full on-chain profile for a single machine DID — identity, DID attributes, MCR snapshot, and recent event summary.

peaqos show machine did:peaq:0x<40-hex>
peaqos show machine did:peaq:0x<40-hex> --json   # raw JSON to stdout

Example output:

  Machine: did:peaq:0x9a5F1E244c15e491Ae571c5bF77fDD836ddc37C5

    Machine ID:  45
    Operator  :  did:peaq:0x9Eea...641C

    DID Attributes:

      data_visibility  :  public

    MCR Snapshot:
      Rating     :  B
      Score      :  31 / 100
      Bond Status:  bonded

    Recent Events:
      Total            :  10
      Last Event       :  2026-04-20T14:30:00Z
      Last Origin Value:  123
      Last Currency    :  HKD
      Last Subunit     :  100
      Last Status      :  ok
      Last USD Value   :  0.13

When the most recent event is a revenue event, the block surfaces the PRO-336 / PRO-334 FX fields. Last USD Value is rendered as USD dollars (Decimal-quantised to 2 places — usd_value=13 → 0.13, usd_value=150 → 1.50). When amount_status is "unsupported_currency" or "fx_unavailable", the Last USD Value row shows — (em-dash) so the CLI never displays a misleading USD number for a row whose FX state the server flagged as unreliable:

    Recent Events:
      Total            :  10
      Last Event       :  2026-04-20T14:30:00Z
      Last Origin Value:  100
      Last Currency    :  XYZ
      Last Status      :  unsupported_currency
      Last USD Value   :  —

Activity events (eventType=1) omit all five FX lines.

peaqos qualify event

Submit one machine event on-chain via the Event Registry (submitEvent).

Prerequisites

Configure .env in the CLI directory (or export the same variables): private key, RPC URL, and contract addresses. See peaq_os_cli.config.load_client.

Required flags

Flag	Meaning
--machine-id	Positive integer machine identity.
--type	revenue or activity.
--value	Non-negative integer as ISO 4217 subunit per PRO-334. BREAKING: pre-PRO-334 callers passed whole-currency amounts; the wire is now subunit. Example: HK$1.23 → --value=123 --currency HKD; ¥100 → --value=100 --currency JPY (JPY has no minor unit). Partner is responsible for the conversion.
--ts	Event time: Unix seconds (digits only) or ISO 8601 with timezone (Z or +hh:mm).

Use a timestamp on or before the chain's block time. If --ts is ahead of the network clock, the contract can revert with FutureTimestamp.

Common options

Flag	Meaning
--trust	self (default), onchain, or hardware.
--source-chain	same, peaq, or base (maps to a chain id for the SDK).
--source-tx	32-byte tx hash (hex, 0x optional). Required when --trust is onchain.
--raw-data	File path; file bytes are hashed and stored as the event data hash.
--metadata	File path; bytes are sent as on-chain metadata.
--currency	Per PRO-336 §6 — currency code for revenue events (e.g. USD, HKD, 3-10 uppercase alphanumeric chars). Activity events take "". Omit to use the SDK's smart default ("USD" for revenue, "" for activity).

Examples

# Revenue event (self-reported trust, default source chain)
peaqos qualify event --machine-id 42 --type revenue --value 100 --ts 1735000000

Event submitted.
  Machine ID:  42

  --raw-data ./sensor.bin

peaqos qualify mcr

Look up a machine's Machine Credit Rating (MCR) from the MCR HTTP API.

Usage

peaqos qualify mcr <DID> [--json]

• DID — Must match did:peaq:0x plus exactly 40 hex characters (checksum casing is allowed).
• --json — Print only JSON to stdout (pretty-printed, indent 2). No banner or prose. Useful for scripts.

In --json mode the object includes the SDK field mcr (rating label, e.g. Provisioned, BBB) and a duplicate key mcr_rating with the same string for tools that expect a *_rating field.

Examples

# Human-readable block (rating, score, bond, events, trend, last updated)
peaqos qualify mcr did:peaq:0x9a5F1E244c15e491Ae571c5bF77fDD836ddc37C5

MCR for did:peaq:0x9a5F1E244c15e491Ae571c5bF77fDD836ddc37C5

  Rating:          A
  Score:           82 / 100
  Bond Status:     bonded

  Events:
    Total:         150
    Revenue:       120
    Activity:      30

  30-Day Revenue:  +12.5%
  Last Updated:    2026-04-20T14:30:00Z
  FX Degraded:     no

FX Degraded: yes (PRO-336 §S6 / PRO-331) means at least one event in the scoring set used a degraded FX source (stale_latest / default_usd_fx_outage). Use it to distinguish a conservative score caused by FX outage from an empty-data machine when gating UI / alerts on data quality.

peaqos scale agent pair

Pair an AI agent to an activated machine via the challenge-sign flow. Requests a pairing challenge, collects the agent's EIP-191 signature, and creates the pairing with the signed proof. The one-time pairing_token is printed on success. Subsequent commands (such as peaqos scale search) use that token via --pairing-token-file.

Requires an activated machine and a platform API key (PEAQOS_ORCH_API_KEY). The token is rendered to stdout exactly once and is never written to peaqos.log or --verbose output.

peaqos scale machine onboard

Onboard a machine into the Machine Market. Four-step wizard: request an identity challenge, sign it (via key file, OWS wallet, or manual paste), register the machine with identity proof, and activate it.

The CLI verifies that the signer address matches one of the DID controller addresses returned by the challenge endpoint before proceeding to registration.

Signing modes (checked in order):

1. --identity-signature-file — read a pre-signed EIP-191 signature from file.
2. --identity-key-file — read a private key from file and sign the challenge.
3. OWS wallet (PEAQOS_OWS_WALLET set) — sign via the active wallet. The key is exported from the vault for the duration of signing only.
4. None of the above — display the challenge and prompt for a pasted signature.

A raw PEAQOS_PRIVATE_KEY client does not auto-sign; it always falls through to mode 4 (manual prompt). Only --identity-signature-file, --identity-key-file, or an active OWS wallet avoid the prompt.

peaqos scale search

Search for services matching a task in the Machine Market. The agent describes what it needs (service type, capabilities, budget) and gets back a ranked list of matching quotes.

Requires an active machine and a valid agent pairing token (--pairing-token-file).

peaqos scale search \
  --machine-id mach_1 \
  --service-type oracle.price-feed \
  --pairing-token-file ./token.txt

peaqos scale search \
  --machine-id mach_1 \
  --service-type oracle.price-feed \
  --pairing-token-file ./token.txt \
  --json   # raw JSON to stdout

Flags

| Flag | Required | Description | | --machine-id | Yes | Machine performing the search. | | --service-type | Yes | Service type (e.g. oracle.price-feed). | | --pairing-token-file | Yes | Path to file containing the agent pairing token. | | --agent-pairing-id | No | Agent pairing ID. | | --operation | No | Desired operation (e.g. get-latest-price). | | --capabilities | No | Required capabilities (comma-separated). | | --region | No | Preferred region. | | --max-results | No | Max quotes to return. | | --budget-amount | No | Budget amount. | | --budget-max | No | Maximum budget amount. | | --budget-currency | No | Budget currency (e.g. USD). | | --native-only | No | Require native execution (no external handoff). | | --allow-handoff | No | Allow external handoff. | | --provider-credentials | No | Path to JSON file with provider credentials. | | --json | No | Output raw JSON to stdout. |

No matching services found.

Search ID: msearch_abc123

Try broadening your search: remove --native-only, increase --budget-amount, or try a different --service-type.

Environment

Orchestration-specific variables (in .env or environment):

Variable	Purpose
PEAQOS_ORCHESTRATION_URL	Base URL of the Machine Markets API.
PEAQOS_ORCH_API_KEY	Platform API key (deployment-level auth).

Both can also be passed as CLI flags (--orchestration-url, --orch-api-key).

peaqos scale order <service-uuid>

Place a market order end-to-end: create the order, handle payment when required, then execute. The service UUID is the first argument (from a prior peaqos scale search quote). Registered subcommands (status, list, received, dispute) take precedence over service IDs.

Requires an active machine, agent pairing ID, and pairing token (--pairing-token-file). Progress steps are written to stderr; the final summary or --json payload goes to stdout.

Payment flows (chosen from the service quote):

Pattern	Steps	When
No payment	[1/2] create → execute	paymentStatus is not-required (e.g. native Pyth)
Wallet payment	[1/5] create → payment intent → send payment → proof → execute	EVM USDC, Solana USDT, etc.
Escrow	Same as wallet, but step 4 calls escrow lock instead of payment proof	External handoff with on-chain escrow

Payment transfer modes (step 3 when wallet payment is required):

Mode	How
OWS	PEAQOS_OWS_WALLET set — CLI signs and sends the ERC-20 transfer via the OWS vault; tx hash captured automatically. Passphrase from OWS_PASSPHRASE or an interactive prompt.
Manual	No OWS wallet — CLI prints amount, chain, token, and payee; operator completes the transfer and pastes the tx hash at the > prompt.
Pre-supplied	--payment-tx-hash (+ --payment-chain, --payment-token) — skips step 3; proof submitted with the given hash/signature.

Use --skip-payment only when payment was already completed externally; combine with --payment-tx-hash to record proof without re-sending funds.

Flags

Flag / argument	Required	Description
<service-uuid>	Yes	Service ID from search results.
--machine-id	Yes	Machine placing the order.
--agent-pairing-id	Yes	Agent pairing ID (from peaqos scale agent pair).
--pairing-token-file	Yes	Path to agent pairing token file.
--search-id	No	Search ID from a prior peaqos scale search.
--quote-id	No	Quote ID from search results.
--operation	No	Requested operation (e.g. get-latest-price).
--budget-amount	No	Budget amount.
--budget-currency	No	Budget currency (e.g. USD).
--input	No	JSON file with operation input.
--provider-credentials	No	JSON file with provider credentials (never logged).
--payment-tx-hash	No	Pre-completed payment tx hash (EVM) or signature (Solana).
--payment-chain	No	Chain for proof (e.g. base, solana, peaq). Required with --payment-tx-hash.
--payment-token	No	Token for proof (e.g. USDC, USDT). Required with --payment-tx-hash.
--skip-payment	No	Skip the on-chain payment step (use with --payment-tx-hash when proof is supplied separately).
-y, --yes	No	Skip confirmation prompts.
--json	No	Output JSON to stdout (implies --yes). Contains order, execution, and payment when a payment record exists.

When the order requires payment, the response also includes "payment": { "status": "held", ... }.

On partial failure after create, the error includes the order ID, current payment status, and a hint to run peaqos scale order status <id>.

peaqos scale order status <order-id>

Check order and payment state.

peaqos scale order status ord_e89c70259bdb
peaqos scale order status ord_e89c70259bdb --json

Example output

    Amount:       —

  Next: peaqos scale order received ord_e89c70259bdb

--json returns { "order": { ... }, "payment": { ... } }.

peaqos scale order list

List market orders for a machine (GET /market/orders). Supports page-by-page listing with --limit and --cursor, or fetching every order in one shot when using --json without --limit.

Flags:

Flag	Description
--machine-id	Required. Machine whose orders to list.
--limit	Page size (1–500). Omitted → server default (100).
--cursor	Opaque cursor from a previous response (next page).
--json	Machine-readable output (see below).

Human output (default) returns one page. When the API includes a next_cursor, a copy-paste hint is printed after the table. Cursors are shown verbatim in the hint and are never written to logs (even with --verbose).

peaqos scale order list --machine-id mach_prod_smoke_mcr_1

2 orders shown.

Next page: peaqos scale order list --machine-id mach_prod_smoke_mcr_1 --cursor eyJ2IjoxLCJvZmZzZXQiOjJ9

When there is no next page, only the count line is shown (no Next page: line).

JSON output:

Invocation	Shape
--json (no --limit)	Root array of all orders across pages (auto-paginated).
--json --limit N	Single page: { "items": [...], "next_cursor": "..." | null }.

# All orders (pipe-friendly for jq)
peaqos scale order list --machine-id mach_1 --json | jq '.[] | .id'

# Manual paging
peaqos scale order list --machine-id mach_1 --json --limit 5

[
  { "id": "ord_e89c70259bdb", "status": "delivered", "...": "..." },
  { "id": "ord_63ab7e934300", "status": "handoff", "...": "..." }
]

{
  "items": [{ "id": "ord_e89c70259bdb", "...": "..." }],
  "next_cursor": "eyJ2IjoxLCJvZmZzZXQiOjJ9"
}

Invalid --limit (0, negative, or above 500) exits with code 1 and: Limit must be between 1 and 500.

peaqos scale order received <order-id>

Confirm delivery and release escrowed funds. The order must be in delivered status (native execution or after external handoff).

peaqos scale order received ord_e89c70259bdb \
  --pairing-token-file ./token.txt

peaqos scale order received ord_e89c70259bdb \
  --pairing-token-file ./token.txt \
  --json

Example output

Delivery confirmed.

  Order ID:  ord_e89c70259bdb
  Status:    confirmed
  Payment:   release_pending

peaqos scale order dispute <order-id>

Raise a dispute and freeze escrowed payment. Requires --reason and the pairing token. Prompts for confirmation unless --yes or --json.

peaqos scale order dispute ord_63ab7e934300 \
  --reason "Service unavailable after payment" \
  --pairing-token-file ./token.txt \
  --yes

# Optional evidence JSON file
peaqos scale order dispute ord_63ab7e934300 \
  --reason "Incorrect deliverable" \
  --evidence ./evidence.json \
  --pairing-token-file ./token.txt \
  --json

Example output

Dispute raised.

  Order ID:  ord_63ab7e934300
  Status:    disputed
  Payment:   frozen
  Reason:    Service unavailable after payment

Integration tests

Order lifecycle integration tests live at tests/integration/commands/scale/test_order_integration.py. Enable with PEAQOS_CLI_ORCH_INTEGRATION=1 and the PEAQOS_INTEGRATION_* variables documented in that file.

Errors

The CLI maps SDK and network exceptions to stable exit codes:

Exit code	Meaning
0	Success
1	User / validation error (bad input, cap, rate limit)
2	Network, RPC, or on-chain error (connection, HTTP, revert)
3	Configuration error (missing env vars, invalid private key)

Subcommands funnel exceptions through peaq_os_cli.errors.handle_sdk_error, which raises click.ClickException with the mapped exit code and a user-friendly message. Known on-chain revert reasons and Faucet API error codes are translated by map_revert_reason and map_faucet_error.

Output formatting

Subcommands render results through peaq_os_cli.formatting to keep human output consistent across the CLI:

• truncate_address — shortens a hex address to 0x{first4}...{last4}.
• format_timestamp — renders a Unix timestamp as ISO 8601 UTC, or — for None.
• format_key_value — aligns key: value pairs so the colons line up.
• format_table — left-aligned columnar table with a header separator.
• print_json — writes json.dumps(data, indent=2) to stdout for pipe-friendly output.
• print_step — writes [{step}/{total}] {label} progress lines to stderr, suppressed when the active Click context is quiet.

Utilities

Input parsing and validation helpers in peaq_os_cli.utils:

• parse_timestamp — accepts pure-digit Unix seconds or ISO 8601 strings with an explicit UTC offset (...Z or ...+HH:MM). Raises click.BadParameter on unrecognised input.
• validate_did_format — requires did:peaq:0x followed by 40 hex characters.
• validate_address_format — requires a 0x-prefixed 40-hex-character address.
• read_key_file — reads, strips, and validates a 0x-prefixed 64-hex private key file. Raises click.ClickException with exit code 1 on missing files or invalid content.
