##Tools for developing Mostro clients

@mostrop2p/mostro-tools is a lightweight and extensible library designed to simplify the development of Mostro clients. It provides low-level functionality for interacting with the Mostro protocol, including order management, messaging, dispute resolution, and more.

This library is ideal for developers building decentralized peer-to-peer Bitcoin trading platforms powered by the Mostro protocol.

Roadmap

Core Implementation

Development of foundational modules to enable Mostro protocol interactions:

• Key Management: Deterministic key generation (NIP-06) and rotation (NIP-59).
• Order Management: Create, list, take, and cancel orders.
• Messaging: Handle direct messages, confirmations, and encrypted communication.
• Dispute Resolution: Initiate and manage disputes.
• Reputation Handling: Implement rating and reputation updates.

Client Features

Expand library capabilities with client-side utilities:

• Order Functions:
  • List open orders (listorders).
  • Create new buy/sell orders (neworder).
  • Take orders (takesell, takebuy).
  • Cancel pending orders (cancel).
• Messaging Functions:
  • Add invoices (addinvoice).
  • Confirm fiat payments (fiatsent).
  • Settle transactions (release).
• Administrative Tools:
  • Cancel orders as admin (admcancel).
  • Resolve disputes as admin (admsettle).
• Privacy Features:
  • Private mode to ensure full anonymity without affecting usability.

Goals

1. Ease of Use: Abstract complexities of the Mostro protocol, providing simple and intuitive APIs.
2. Security First: Adhere to best practices for cryptographic operations and data integrity.
3. Scalability: Design with modularity and extensibility to support future protocol updates.
4. Community Support: Enable seamless contribution through clear documentation and developer tools.
