## Engine-API |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Engine-API is a set of RPC methods that enable communication between Geth and the |
|
|
|
|
[consensus client](/docs/interface/consensus-clients.md). These are not designed to be |
|
|
|
|
exposed to the user - instead they are called automatically by the clients when they |
|
|
|
|
need to exchange information. The Engine API is enabled by default - the user is not required |
|
|
|
|
to pass any instruction to Geth to enable these methods. |
