mnr Documentation

Technical specifications, RPC method policies, and gateway architectures for the Monero RPC network.

Complete verification rules, SWR cache bounds, and quorum requirements for every Monero daemon JSON-RPC and legacy call.

Verified proxy architecture combining public community nodes and mnr's owned node. Upstream rate capping, error ejection, and token auth.

Canonical engineering plan for the production Monero RPC Gateway: minimum 3-node independent quorum, DO alarm loops, and SLA commitments.

The permissionless network direction: independent monerod operators, cryptographic fault logging, and weekly XMR payouts without tokens or slashing.

Architecture & Reading Order

The documentation is divided into progressive stages reflecting the protocol's evolution:

Operational Ground Truth: Start with Method Policy to understand how individual Monero daemon calls are validated, hashed, and cached.
What is Live Today: Review Stage 0 MVP for the single-binary verified proxy and public node disclosure rules.
The Next Phase: See Stage 1 Gateway Plan for the multi-provider owned mesh with SLAs.
The Long-Term Protocol: Read Stage 2 Network Architecture for the permissionless node network where operators earn XMR for verified compute.

All mnr software is open source under AGPL-3.0. The repository contains crates for the relayer, daemon proxies, and protocol simulators:
