Using the API

Savant exposes two communication channels: the A2A protocol (recommended) for agent-to-agent communication, and the REST API for administrative operations.
The A2A protocol is the primary way to communicate with Savant. It uses JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP.

​
Send a Message

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/send \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "1",
    "method": "send",
    "params": {
      "message": {
        "kind": "message",
        "messageId": "msg-001",
        "role": "user",
        "parts": [{"kind": "text", "text": "What agents are registered?"}]
      }
    }
  }'

​
Stream a Response

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/send \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "2",
    "method": "stream",
    "params": {
      "message": {
        "kind": "message",
        "messageId": "msg-002",
        "role": "user",
        "parts": [{"kind": "text", "text": "Analyze the code in /src"}]
      }
    }
  }'
Returns an SSE stream with TaskStatusUpdateEvent, Message, and TaskArtifactUpdateEvent events.

​
Invoke a Capability

Send a DataPart with the capability name and arguments: 
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/send \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "3",
    "method": "send",
    "params": {
      "message": {
        "kind": "message",
        "messageId": "msg-003",
        "role": "user",
        "parts": [{
          "kind": "data",
          "data": {
            "capability": "check_stock",
            "args": {"product_id": "SKU-1234"}
          }
        }]
      }
    }
  }'

​
Using the SDK (Easier)

The RemoteAgent class wraps all of this: 
import { RemoteAgent } from '@svantic/sdk';

const remote = await RemoteAgent.connect('http://localhost:3000');

// Simple message
const answer = await remote.send('What agents are registered?');

// Streaming
for await (const event of remote.send_stream('Analyze the code')) { ... }

// Capability invocation
const result = await remote.invoke_capability('check_stock', { product_id: 'SKU-1234' });

​
REST API

Administrative endpoints for session management, MCP configuration, and guardrails.

​
Agent Management

Register requires a JWT from POST /auth/get_token (credentials go only there). The register body is agent_type, instance_id, url, and optionally tools / mcp_servers — not client_id / client_secret. Success response: { "ok": true, "tenant_id": "..." }. 
# 1) Obtain a JWT (client_id / client_secret only here)
TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST http://localhost:7000/auth/get_token \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"client_id":"acme","client_secret":"secret","agent_type":"my-service"}' \
  | jq -r '.token')

# 2) Register (Bearer token — no credentials in body)
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/agents/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -d '{"agent_type":"my-service","instance_id":"pod-1","url":"http://my-service:4000","tools":[],"mcp_servers":{}}'

# List registered agents
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/agents/list

# Deregister an agent
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/agents/deregister \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"agent_type": "my-service", "instance_id": "pod-1"}'

​
Sessions

# Authenticate first
TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST http://localhost:7000/auth/get_token \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"client_id":"acme","client_secret":"secret","agent_type":"my-agent"}' \
  | jq -r '.token')

# Create a session (auto-attaches internal agents)
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/sessions/init \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -d '{"session_id": "sess-001"}'

# Invite a remote agent into the session
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/sessions/sess-001/invite \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -d '{"agent_type": "transcript-link"}'

# Close a session (destroys internal agents, unbinds all)
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/sessions/sess-001/close \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

# List sessions
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/sessions/list

# Get session history

MCP Servers

# Register MCP servers
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/config/mcp/register \

        "command": "npx",
        "args": ["-y", "@anthropic/chrome-devtools-mcp"]

​
Endpoint Conventions

Savant uses HTTP POST for all API operations. Exceptions: A2A discovery (GET /.well-known/agent-card.json), BFF health (GET /health), and a few BFF GETs for read-only endpoints.
