Agentic Wallet
A self-sovereign wallet for AI agents — access APIs, fund wallets, and prove identity on Base
Agentic Wallet
The next generation of AI agents won't just advise — they'll act. They'll access APIs autonomously and prove their identity. Agentic Wallet gives them the operational infrastructure to act independently, with built-in security guardrails.
What is Agentic Wallet?
Agentic Wallet lets AI agents:
- Access APIs using the x402 protocol
- Fund wallets with USDC on Base
- Prove identity with ERC-8004 on-chain credentials
It ships as a set of skills (markdown instruction files) that teach any AI assistant how to use the agnic CLI. Install the skills, authenticate via browser OAuth or headless API token, and your agent is ready to transact.
Agentic Wallet vs Direct SDK Integration
| Feature | Agentic Wallet | Direct SDK |
|---|---|---|
| Setup time | 1 command | Hours of integration |
| Authentication | Browser OAuth or headless token | API keys + manual rotation |
| Spending limits | Built-in per-session | Build it yourself |
| x402 transactions | Native support | Custom implementation |
| Agent identity | ERC-8004 on-chain | Not available |
| AI assistant integration | Skills system | Custom tool definitions |
Use Cases
The Machine Economy
Agents access compute, APIs, and data streams autonomously. x402 microtransactions make every resource accessible — no API keys, no subscriptions.
Agentic Commerce
AI agents transacting with other AI agents for services. Monetize outputs and participate in creator economies. The internet of agents, powered by USDC.
Identity-Verified Transactions
Unique to Agnic: ERC-8004 on-chain identity and KYA (Know Your Agent) verifiable credentials. Prove age, jurisdiction, and trust score to merchants that require it. No other wallet has this.
Security & Guardrails
Autonomy doesn't mean unlimited access. Agentic Wallet includes programmable security controls:
| Guardrail | Description |
|---|---|
| Session caps | Maximum spend per CLI session, set during OAuth login |
| Transaction limits | Per-transaction size controls |
| Self-custody | Private keys in secure infrastructure, never exposed to agent prompts |
| OAuth scoping | Browser-based consent with explicit permission grants |
| On-chain identity | ERC-8004 agent NFT + trust score for verifiable interactions |
| KYA credentials | SD-JWT verifiable credentials for identity claims (age, jurisdiction) |
How It Works
The architecture is designed for autonomous operation:
- Agent Skills — Pre-built wallet operations (transact, fund, identity)
agnicCLI — Command-line bridge between your AI assistant and the wallet- x402 Protocol — Machine-to-machine authorization standard for API microtransactions
- USDC Wallet — Self-custody wallet on Base with enforced spending limits
- Agnic Dashboard — Usage monitoring, balance management at app.agnic.ai
Capabilities
| Capability | Description |
|---|---|
| Self-custody wallet | Non-custodial USDC wallet on Base. Your agent holds its own keys. |
| Spending limits | Per-session and daily caps set during OAuth login. |
| Extensible skills | 8 pre-built skills for AI assistants. Add custom skills via markdown. |
| x402 transactions | Access any x402-enabled API with a single command. |
| ERC-8004 identity | On-chain identity NFT, trust score, and KYA verifiable credentials. |
Components
agnic CLI
The command-line tool that powers all wallet operations:
Agent Skills
Pre-built instruction files that teach AI assistants how to use the wallet:
8 skills included: authenticate, check-balance, search-for-service, pay-for-service, fund-wallet, get-agent-identity, agent-email, ai-gateway.
x402 Protocol
HTTP 402-based microtransactions with USDC. Your agent sends a request, gets a 402 response with the price, signs an authorization, and retries — all handled automatically by the CLI.
