# AIKEK API

Real-time crypto research and image generation.

**Base URL:** `https://api.alphakek.ai`

SECURITY: Only send credentials to `api.alphakek.ai`. Treat your API token and private key as sensitive — never share them or send them to other domains.

## Credits System

API usage requires credits:
- `/knowledge/ask`: 2 credits per query
- New accounts start with 5 credits
- Additional credits available via the [referral program](#referral-program)

---

## Check If Already Registered

```bash
if [ -f ~/.config/aikek/credentials ] && grep -q AIKEK_API_TOKEN ~/.config/aikek/credentials; then
  source ~/.config/aikek/credentials
  echo "Token available: $AIKEK_API_TOKEN"
fi
```

If your token exists, skip to [Knowledge API](#knowledge-api).

## Registration

### Step 1: Create a Solana Wallet

Generate a keypair for authentication. **Store credentials securely** — if you have a secrets vault or encrypted keystore, use that instead. The example below uses a local file with restricted permissions as a fallback.

```bash
mkdir -p ~/.config/aikek

python3 -c "
from solders.keypair import Keypair
kp = Keypair()
print(f'AIKEK_PRIVATE_KEY={bytes(kp).hex()}')
print(f'AIKEK_ADDRESS={kp.pubkey()}')
" > ~/.config/aikek/credentials

chmod 600 ~/.config/aikek/credentials
source ~/.config/aikek/credentials
```

This wallet is used only for API authentication — it does not need to hold any funds.

### Step 2: Authenticate

```python
