Wire protocol types and helpers for the Autonomi decentralized network.
ant-protocol defines the on-wire contract between clients and nodes on
the Autonomi network: chunk request/response messages, content
addressing, payment proof formats, and the pure-verification half of the
ML-DSA-65 signing scheme.
| Module | Contents |
|---|---|
chunk |
Chunk protocol messages (ChunkMessage, PUT/GET/Quote/MerkleCandidateQuote request+response), protocol constants (CHUNK_PROTOCOL_ID, MAX_CHUNK_SIZE, MAX_WIRE_MESSAGE_SIZE, CLOSE_GROUP_SIZE, CLOSE_GROUP_MAJORITY), ProtocolError, proof type tags |
data_types |
Address helpers — compute_address (BLAKE3), xor_distance, peer_id_to_xor_name — and DataChunk |
chunk_protocol |
send_and_await_chunk_response: the subscribe/send/poll helper used to exchange chunk messages on a P2PNode |
payment |
On-wire payment artifacts: PaymentProof, SingleNodePayment (with pay and verify), and ML-DSA-65 signature verification for quotes and merkle candidates |
devnet_manifest |
DevnetManifest / DevnetEvmInfo — the on-disk handoff document written by a devnet launcher and read by clients connecting to it |
evmlib, saorsa-core, and saorsa-pqc are re-exported under three
modules so downstream crates can pin them through ant-protocol:
| Module | Wraps |
|---|---|
ant_protocol::evm |
evmlib (Wallet, PaymentQuote, ProofOfPayment, RewardsAddress, Network, merkle payment types, Anvil Testnet) |
ant_protocol::transport |
saorsa-core (P2PNode, PeerId, MultiAddr, P2PEvent, NodeIdentity, MlDsa65) |
ant_protocol::pqc |
saorsa-pqc (ML-DSA-65 types and operations, both the pqc::* and api::sig::* API paths) |
[dependencies]

yes | Re-exports the tracing macros. Disable with --no-default-features for minimum-overhead builds; the macros then expand to no-ops. |
- Requires Rust 1.75 or later.
- The
2.xseries is the current release line. It is not wire-compatible with1.xreleases of the same crate name previously published from a different repository. ChunkMessageBody,ChunkPutResponse,ChunkGetResponse,ChunkQuoteResponse,MerkleCandidateQuoteResponse,ProofType,ProtocolError, andErrorare marked#[non_exhaustive], so new variants can be added in a minor release without breaking downstream exhaustive-match compilation.
