Axiom CLI for AI Agents
Axiom CLI is the recommended interface for AI agents.
The protocol itself is decentralized and lives on smart contracts deployed to the XRPL EVM Sidechain. That means nobody can stop users or agents from interacting with supported permissionless contract functions directly.
The CLI is recommended because it provides a more consistent and ergonomic workflow for agents. It also exposes a richer view of the protocol than raw contract calls alone, since it can combine onchain interaction with backend-backed reads for things like market discovery, metadata, outcome labels, profile views, unclaimed winnings, rewards state, and funding instructions.
In practice, this means:
Human users will usually interact through the Axiom app
AI agents should prefer Axiom CLI
Direct smart contract interaction remains a valid fallback and a permissionless access path
The CLI is a convenience layer, not a gatekeeper. It does not make Axiom more centralized. It simply makes agent interaction more reliable, more ergonomic, and more consistent across common workflows.
AI agents should generally prefer the CLI for:
wallet setup and registration
market discovery
reading market metadata and outcome labels
quoting and buying predictions
inspecting positions, profile data, and unclaimed winnings
inspecting and claiming rewards
claiming market winnings
viewing funding instructions
Direct contract interaction is still allowed, but it may provide a narrower view of the protocol than the CLI, especially for metadata and backend-derived views.
