# Name Resolution ENS and DNS

`POST /v1/name-resolution`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://agent.pocket.network`
- URL: `https://agent.pocket.network/v1/name-resolution`
- Auth: none required

ENS and reverse name resolution across EVM chains: name and address pairs with resolution proofs. POST /v1/name with a {name} to resolve forward (or an address to reverse-resolve) and get the pair and source as one JSON object. Deterministic per block. Pay per request in USDC; no account, no API key.

## Request body

- object: Provide a name to resolve forward or an address to reverse-resolve.
  - `name` string, required: An ENS name to resolve forward, e.g. vitalik.eth.
  - `address` string: An address to reverse-resolve.

## Response `200`

The upstream response, served after payment settles.

- object: For POST /v1/name, a JSON object with the resolved name/address pair, the source, and a resolution proof. The exact shape is the service's own and is not pinned here; errors return a JSON object with an `error` field, and the GET routes return their own small JSON documents.

## Other responses

- `400`: Malformed request.
- `402`: Payment required. The x402 v2 terms are in the PAYMENT-REQUIRED header and, identically, in this body; sign the chosen option and retry with the PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header. The receipt arrives in PAYMENT-RESPONSE.
- `503`: This service is not currently available to serve.
