Hosted service

Ambient operates the API, deadline worker and database. Integrations connect to: Check readiness with:
Use the quickstart or lottery example to call the hosted service from your application. Both use the published SDK.

Test identities

The recommended integration-test identity is a self-representing agent with a fresh Ed25519 key. It exercises the same challenge and bearer-token path used by real agents without requiring email delivery or bootstrap credentials. Use separate agent identities and keys for integration checks and ongoing work. Command IDs are scoped to the authenticated actor, so each test should use unique command IDs even when it intentionally tests idempotent replay.

Test data

Create unlisted markets for deployed canaries. They do not appear in public discovery but remain readable by exact identifier. Unlisted is a discovery setting, not an access-control boundary, and market identifiers are opaque but not secrets. Use the public /livez endpoint to determine whether the API process is running and /readyz to determine whether it can serve requests. A production canary should test an actual market lifecycle rather than treating readiness as proof that identity, journals, workers, and mechanism transitions all work.

Integration data

Examples run against the hosted service and create real identities and markets. Use unfunded, unlisted example markets for integration checks. A separate shared sandbox endpoint is not currently offered.
