Workflow

1. Check wallet balance

agentcash.get_balance()

Ensure sufficient USDC balance for the chosen tier. If balance is low and the user needs funding details, call agentcash.list_accounts().

2. Determine the tier

Pick the smallest tier that fits the file. Check file size first with ls -la or wc -c.

Tier	Max Size	Cost
10mb	10 MB	$0.02
100mb	100 MB	$0.20
1gb	1 GB	$2.00

3. Buy the upload slot

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/upload",
  method="POST",
  body={"filename": "report.pdf", "contentType": "application/pdf", "tier": "10mb"}
)

Parameters:

• filename — name for the uploaded file (required)
• contentType — MIME type (required, advisory for browser)
• tier — "10mb", "100mb", or "1gb" (required)

Response:

{
  "uploadId": "k7gm3nqp2",
  "uploadUrl": "https://f.stableupload.dev/k7gm3nqp2/report.pdf?t=...",
  "publicUrl": "https://f.stableupload.dev/k7gm3nqp2/report.pdf",
  "expiresAt": "2026-08-19T00:00:00.000Z",
  "maxSize": 10485760
}

4. Upload the file via curl

Use Bash to PUT the file to the returned uploadUrl:

curl -s -X PUT "<uploadUrl>" -H "Content-Type: <mime>" --data-binary @/absolute/path/to/file

Critical: Use --data-binary (not -d) to preserve binary content. Use the absolute path.

5. Share the public URL

Present the publicUrl to the user. This URL is publicly accessible immediately and remains live for 6 months.

Common MIME Types

File Type	Content Type
PDF	application/pdf
PNG image	image/png
JPEG image	image/jpeg
CSV	text/csv
JSON	application/json
Plain text	text/plain
ZIP archive	application/zip
Excel	application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
Unknown	application/octet-stream

Listing Previous Uploads

To list uploads for the current wallet:

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/uploads",
  method="GET"
)

Get Upload Details

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/download/k7gm3nqp2",
  method="GET"
)

Key Details

• No API keys required — payment is the authentication
• Upload URLs expire in 1 hour — upload promptly after buying the slot
• Public URLs last 6 months from purchase date
• Any file type accepted — contentType is advisory for the browser, not a restriction
• S3-backed — files stored on AWS S3 with public read access
• Discovery endpoint: agentcash.discover_api_endpoints(url="https://stableupload.dev") if you need to verify endpoints

Common Patterns

Upload a file the user just created: Skip discovery, go straight to wallet check + buy slot + upload.

Upload multiple files: Buy separate slots for each file. Slots can be purchased in parallel but uploads must use the correct uploadUrl for each.

User asks to "share" or "send" a file: Upload it and present the public URL. The URL can be shared anywhere.

Host images for emails: Upload the image, then reference the publicUrl in email HTML:

<img src="https://f.stableupload.dev/abc/photo.png" alt="Photo" />

Static Site Hosting

Host static sites (HTML/CSS/JS) with custom domains and automatic HTTPS.

Deploy a Site

1. Buy a site slot (paid, tier-based):

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/site",
  method="POST",
  body={"filename": "my-site.zip", "tier": "100mb"}
)

Returns {uploadId, uploadUrl}.

2. Upload the zip:

curl -X PUT "$uploadUrl" -H "Content-Type: application/zip" --data-binary @site.zip

3. Activate the site (SIWX, free):

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/site/activate",
  method="POST",
  body={"uploadId": "..."}
)

Returns {siteUrl, fileCount, files}. Site is live at https://{uploadId}.s.stableupload.dev/.

Update an Existing Site

Update for free: PUT /api/site to get a new upload URL, upload the new zip, then activate.

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/site",
  method="PUT",
  body={"uploadId": "...", "filename": "my-site.zip"}
)

Then upload the new zip and call activate again.

Custom Domain

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/site/domain",
  method="POST",
  body={"uploadId": "...", "hostname": "www.example.com"}
)

Returns DNS records to configure. Check status:

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/site/domain/status?uploadId=...",
  method="GET"
)

Detach a domain:

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/site/domain",
  method="DELETE",
  body={"uploadId": "...", "hostname": "www.example.com"}
)

Renew a Site

agentcash.fetch(
  url="https://stableupload.dev/api/site/renew",
  method="POST",
  body={"uploadId": "...", "count": 4}
)

Extends 4 x 6 months.

Notes

• Max 500 files per site
• Tier limit applies to uncompressed size
• Custom domains get automatic HTTPS via Cloudflare

Error Handling

• Insufficient balance: Call agentcash.list_accounts() to show deposit links and wallet addresses
• File too large for tier: Suggest the next tier up
• Upload URL expired: Buy a new slot (the previous payment is non-refundable)
• curl fails: Verify the file path exists and the uploadUrl is correctly quoted
