Do I need a running prover service to use this skill?

Yes, for state-changing transactions (calls), the SDK must connect to a prover service to generate the ZK proofs required by the Midnight network.

What is the difference between a query and a call in this skill?

Queries are read-only operations used to fetch current ledger state without gas costs or proofs, while calls are state-changing transactions that require zero-knowledge proof generation and a prover service.

What happens if a transaction proof fails?

The skill includes comprehensive error handling patterns for common issues like invalid witness data, circuit execution failures, and network timeouts to help you debug and recover.

Can I use this for automated contract testing?

Absolutely. This skill includes examples for programmatically interacting with contracts, making it ideal for writing integration tests and automated deployment validation scripts.

Does this skill help with handling private inputs?

Yes, it provides patterns for managing private witness data within your backend, ensuring that sensitive information used in proof generation never leaves your secure environment.

API開発

Enables Node.js applications to query state and execute transactions on deployed Midnight smart contracts with integrated zero-knowledge proof generation.

This skill provides specialized guidance for integrating Midnight smart contracts into Node.js backend environments. It streamlines the process of connecting to the Midnight network, querying ledger state, and executing complex state-changing transactions that require zero-knowledge proofs. By providing standardized patterns for contract client architecture, error handling, and transaction monitoring, it allows developers to build production-grade API endpoints and automation scripts that interact securely with Midnight's privacy-preserving blockchain.
