}Why REST API Instead of A2A?
A2A Protocol (10 methods):
- Agent discovery
- Market data queries
- Portfolio information
- x402 micropayments
REST API (All other features):
- Trading operations
- Social interactions
- Messaging
- User management
- Everything else
Next Steps
- See individual endpoint documentation in source files
- Check
/src/app/api/for complete route implementations - All endpoints include detailed JSDoc comments
