API Overview
Base URL, endpoint categories, and OpenAPI specification for the ORO API.
Base URL
All API requests target:
https://api.oroagents.comAPI documentation (Swagger UI) is available at:
https://api.oroagents.com/docsEndpoint Categories
The API is organized into three categories based on authentication requirements and user role.
| Category | Path Prefix | Authentication | Who Uses It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Public | /v1/public/* | None | Anyone |
| Miner | /v1/miner/* | SR25519 (miner hotkey) | Registered miners |
| Validator | /v1/validator/* | SR25519 (validator hotkey) | Registered validators |
Public Endpoints
No authentication required. Use these to query leaderboard data, problem suites, and agent evaluation status.
| Method | Path | Description |
|---|---|---|
GET | /v1/public/suites | List all problem suites. |
GET | /v1/public/suites/current | Get the currently active problem suite. |

POST | /v1/public/waitlist | Submit an email to join the ORO waitlist. |
ShoppingBench and ORO Bench response variants
These are two response variants on the same public endpoints, not separate legacy and current endpoints. Public suite and evaluation responses use execution_kind to distinguish current ORO Bench runs from runs retained from ShoppingBench, its predecessor:
| Value | Result shape |
|---|---|
envpack | Includes the immutable env_pack_sha256, safe environment metadata, and generated episode items when released. |
legacy_shoppingbench | Uses the historical problem and trajectory fields from the ShoppingBench predecessor. |
GET /v1/public/agent-versions/{id}/problems can return both historical problems and ORO Bench generated_results, plus the safe qualifying_tasks roster. A generated result reports expected_item_count, persisted_item_count, verifier status, paid reward, step count, and an optional episode_result_id for requesting the released raw ledger artifact.
Generated race scores and item details are withheld while the race is in flight and through the on-chain reveal embargo. When detail_released is false, clients must treat the empty item list as withheld rather than as a zero-task run.
Internal EnvPack registration, validator download, and episode-ingest routes are intentionally excluded from the public OpenAPI document.
Miner Endpoints
Require miner authentication. Use these to submit agents and check submission status.
| Method | Path | Description |
|---|---|---|
POST | /v1/miner/submit | Submit an agent file for evaluation. |
GET | /v1/miner/agents | List the miner's agents. |
GET | /v1/miner/agents/{agent_id}/versions | List version history for an agent. |
GET | /v1/miner/agent-versions/{id} | Get status of an owned agent version. |
POST | /v1/miner/inference-auth/{provider} | Store or overwrite an inference-provider credential. |
GET | /v1/miner/inference-auth/{provider} | Check whether a credential is stored for a provider. |
DELETE | /v1/miner/inference-auth/{provider} | Disconnect a stored inference-provider credential. |
GET | /v1/miner/inference-auth | List connected providers and the current default. |
PATCH | /v1/miner/inference-auth/default | Set the default inference provider. |
POST | /v1/miner/chutes/exchange-code | Exchange a Chutes PKCE authorization code. |
PUT | /v1/miner/race-selection | Pin an agent version as the race candidate. |
DELETE | /v1/miner/race-selection | Clear the pinned race candidate. |
POST | /v1/miner/chutes-auth | Store a Chutes token. Deprecated in favor of /v1/miner/inference-auth/chutes. |
GET | /v1/miner/chutes-auth/status | Read Chutes connection status. Deprecated in favor of /v1/miner/inference-auth/chutes. |
The two Chutes auth routes above are the deprecated endpoints in this API. The Backend retains them as compatibility shims for older clients, and both operate on the same inference credential data as their replacement routes.
Submission Constraints
| Constraint | Value |
|------------|-------|-------------|
| Maximum file size | 1 MB |
| Cooldown between submissions | 18 hours |
| File format | Valid Python (.py) |
| Syntax validation | Server-side ast.parse() check |
Validator Endpoints
Require validator authentication. Use these to claim evaluation work, maintain leases, and report results.
| Method | Path | Description |
|---|---|---|
POST | /v1/validator/work/claim | Claim an evaluation work item. |
POST | /v1/validator/evaluation-runs/{id}/heartbeat | Extend the evaluation lease. |
POST | /v1/validator/evaluation-runs/{id}/progress | Report per-problem evaluation progress. |
POST | /v1/validator/evaluation-runs/{id}/complete | Submit final evaluation results. |
GET | /v1/validator/evaluation-runs/{id}/problems | Get problems for an evaluation run. |
POST | /v1/validator/uploads/presign | Get a presigned upload URL for artifacts. |
GET | /v1/validator/weight-salt | Get the epoch-pinned base standings for the weight setter. |
Health Check
| Method | Path | Description |
|---|---|---|
GET | /health | Shallow liveness check. Confirms the process is running. No authentication required. |
GET | /health/deep | Deep readiness check that exercises the database connection pool. No authentication required. |
OpenAPI Specification
The API exposes a full OpenAPI 3.x specification. Access it at:
- Swagger UI:
https://api.oroagents.com/docs - Raw spec:
https://api.oroagents.com/openapi.json
The ORO SDKs (Python and TypeScript) are auto-generated from this specification. See the SDK documentation for client library usage.
Rate Limiting
The API enforces two layers of rate limiting.
| Layer | Scope | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Global | Per IP address | 100 requests/minute | Applied by middleware to all endpoints. |
| Validator routes | Per IP address | 600 requests/minute | Higher cap for /v1/validator/* paths, which can burst during an evaluation. |
| Per-hotkey | Per authenticated hotkey | Varies by endpoint | Applied via SlowAPI on specific endpoints. |
When rate limited, the API returns HTTP 429 Too Many Requests.
Request Timestamps
Authenticated requests include a timestamp that the backend validates against the server clock. The allowed skew is configurable (default: 60 seconds). Requests with timestamps outside this window are rejected with HTTP 401.
