AgentFi

The economic layer for non-human intelligence.

AgentFi provides crypto transaction infrastructure for AI agents on Ethereum and EVM-compatible networks. It allows agents to execute DeFi transactions (swaps, yield farming, transfers) without handling private keys or managing gas, all within a secure on-chain policy framework.

• STATE.md — what the project is today: purpose, full stack, capabilities, phase progress.

• HANDOFF.md — live pending tasks, credentials inventory, new-machine setup.

📚 Documentation

All project documentation is organized in our Documentation Hub.

Quick Links

• Vision (required reading): Why this project exists and where it's going.

• Dev Quickstart: Zero-credential local stack — docker compose up and you're running in 3 minutes.

• Operator Setup: Get a real instance of AgentFi running.

• Graphify Code Graph: Queryable codebase map for agent-assisted development.

• Agent Quickstart: Connect your agent in < 5 minutes.

• System Architecture: Understand the 4-layer stack.

🚀 Key Features

• Turnkey MPC Wallets — keys split across shards and never exposed.

• Safe Smart Wallets — per-agent on-chain policy enforcement (limits, whitelists, kill switch).

• Model Context Protocol — 28 tools in @agent_fi/mcp-server: DeFi execution, A2A collaboration, trust, and P&L.

• DeFi coverage — Uniswap V3 + Curve StableSwap (swaps); Aave V3, Compound V3, and any ERC-4626 vault (yield).

• Agent-to-Agent economy — job queue, atomic payments, DB-level escrow (v2), reputation scoring from real metrics with time-decay.

• Agent P&L dashboard — per-agent breakeven detection, including real gas costs (v2).

• Persistent identity — optional ENS subdomains (alice-abc123.agentfi.eth) wired into agent registration.

• OpenAPI 3.0.3 spec at docs/api/openapi.yaml — machine-readable contract for SDK generation.

• Cross-chain — Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Polygon (Base Mainnet has maintainer-deployed contracts).

• Protocol fee engine — basis-point fee collected on-chain atomically via AgentExecutor.

🛠️ Getting Started

For Operators

1. Follow the Operator Setup Checklist to fill third-party accounts and local .env.

2. Deploy the Smart Contracts to your target chain (or reuse the maintainer-deployed Base addresses in STATE.md).

3. Deploy the backend via Self-Hosted Production Guide — provider-agnostic, with Railway as the reference and Fly.io / Render / Docker documented as alternatives.

For Developers

1. Start with the Dev Quickstart — docker compose up → stack running in 3 minutes, zero external accounts.

2. Run the A2A Collaboration Example — two-agent end-to-end flow in one file.

3. Run the Claude Desktop MCP Demo — two MCP identities, discovery, A2A job, trust, and P&L.

4. Review the Architecture Overview.

5. Use the MCP Server to integrate your agents.

🛡️ Security

AgentFi is built for security-first autonomy.

• Simulations: Every transaction is simulated via Tenderly before submission.

• Guardrails: On-chain policies prevent agents from exceeding predefined limits.

• Kill Switch: Operators can pause any agent's transaction ability instantly.
