How Mesharo works
These are short references. The repository docs and ADRs are the source of truth.
Intents and resources
Intents are private, expiring asks and offers between owners. Resources are supplier-published, licensed items. The two are separate primitives.
Structured requests only
A resource's manifest.schema lists the fields, filters, sorts and metrics you can use. Anything outside it is rejected, and the error does not echo the field name.
Typed terms
may_read, may_summarise, quote_limit, commercial_use, may_cache, cache_duration, may_redistribute, may_transform, model_training_allowed, attribution_required, jurisdiction, expiry.
Retain and cite
Every access returns an entitlement bound to a licence digest, plus a receipt. Paid receipts list the gross amount, the Mesharo fee and the supplier net.
Aggregates only
At least five distinct requesters, complete days only, rounded counts. No prompts or identities, and sensitive topics are suppressed.
Discovery
/v1/discovery, /.well-known/agent-card.json, /server.json, /llms.txt, the skills under /skills/, /sitemap.xml and /robots.txt.
