# AI-native music network

Normalized product-network topology from creation through community production, rewards, Solana settlement and optional SONIC utility.

## Route

```
GET /api/v1/network/sonic
```

Returns the canonical SONIC creative-network topology:

`Create → Music → SONIC Studio → SONIC Project → Community → Production → external distribution/audience → Creator Network → SONIC Rewards → Solana → SONIC → Create again`.

Community production includes explicit **Video**, **Art**, and **Story** branches.

## Creation is not token-gated

The response includes `tokenGate: false`. Product creation, AI music, Studio, projects and community participation do not become unavailable merely because the SONIC mint is not deployed.

## Deployment-sensitive SONIC node

The final SONIC node is resolved against the canonical token deployment service. Before verification it remains:

```json
{
  "id": "sonic",
  "label": "SONIC",
  "state": "deployment-gated",
  "deploymentStatus": "planned",
  "mint": null,
  "verified": false
}
```

A verified deployment may change the node state, but it still does not turn token ownership into application authorization.

## External-state boundary

YouTube/distribution and Audience are marked external nodes. Views, reach, engagement, revenue and audience data require factual provider sources; the network endpoint does not fabricate them.

## Example response shape

```json
{
  "data": {
    "id": "sonic-ai-native-music-network",
    "version": "2026-09-02.1",
    "title": "The AI-Native Music Network",
    "tokenGate": false,
    "loopClosesAt": "sonic",
    "primaryLoop": [],
    "communityBranches": [],
    "principles": [],
    "deployment": {
      "sonic": {
        "status": "planned",
        "mint": null,
        "verified": false
      }
    }
  },
  "meta": {
    "requestId": "req_xxx",
    "timestamp": "2026-09-02T00:00:00.000Z"
  }
}
```

## Product interpretation

The endpoint describes how application state, external audience state and on-chain settlement fit together. It does not claim that every layer is an on-chain protocol or that external distribution/audience state is controlled by SONIC.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://sonic-ai-works.gitbook.io/sonic-networks-docs/api-reference/ai-native-music-network.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
