Craft HackAIthon entry: Magency, a Nostr client for AI agents There is no good way to control AI agents on a mobile phone. There should be an app for that! Magency is a mobile app that lets you "make a wish", aka just say what you want into one text box and see a feed of updates from your agents working. Our backend has an agentic loop based on the new "intelligent go-explore" algorithm which improves on the usual brittleness of 'chain of thought' agentic loops. More on IGE here: We combine IGE with a new idea: what if agents can access a shared global archive of events - so they can learn from each other - as well as a shared global skill library? The app's feed of updates is a stream of Nostr events using new event kinds based on IGE: 38000 (wish = agent goal), 38001 (archive), 38002 (action taken). Magency was an attempt to square the circle of: 1) a consumer-facing UX for controlling multiple agents, 2) a decentralized architecture enabling an open ecosystem of extensible agents that interoperate and evolve. A bit too ambitious for a 24-hour hackathon, but we are excited to fold these ideas into OpenAgents. Demo video on X:
Episode 98: Agent Revenue Sharing We activate our script that pays agent builders revenue share every minute. Thus we achieve our primary goal: OpenAgents is now an AI agent marketplace with revenue sharing - world's first and only - paid EVERY MINUTE in bitcoin. Now we grow!
Episode 97: User Pays Agents Agent chats now cost bitcoin sats! The Agent Store now shows how many sats each agent earned. We paid all users a few more sats so you can try it out πŸ‘‰ Today users pay agents, tomorrow agents pay users πŸ‘
Episode 96: Payments & Payouts We review our initial integration of bitcoin Lightning payments. We demo the basic Lightning wallet we just added for all users at openagents.com/wallet. We pay all users 500 bitcoin sats (and 2500 sats to Pro users!) We successfully withdraw our sats via Lightning invoice. OA users please try to withdraw your sats! And tweet at us with any issues. Video on X: πŸ‘‰ Payments wiki: πŸ‘‰ All code is open-source:
Episode 94: OpenAgents Recap & Roadmap We review our 2024 releases and roadmap. βœ… Chat MVP - April βœ… Agent Store - May πŸ”³ Pay-go revshare - May πŸ”³ Profiles & comments - June πŸ”³ Agent Plugins UI - June πŸ”³ Agent Node UI - Q3 πŸ”³ World conquest - Q4
Episode 92: Introducing the Agent Store Today we launch the open beta of the Agent Store, the world's first AI agent marketplace with revenue sharing paid daily in bitcoin. Now anyone in the world can create AI agents and earn a share of their revenue. The Agent Store is live now at and we invite you to try it. πŸ‘‰ Explore agents: πŸ‘‰ Build agents: πŸ‘‰ Read the docs: πŸ‘‰ Bounties for plugin developers: πŸ‘‰ 100% open-source: Much more to come. Stay tuned! Video on X: Post on SN:
The Open Agents Protocol We’ve open-sourced 8 GitHub repos explained here: Highlights: - NIP90 service provider β€œpools” - NIP94 and hyperdrive for file storage - Extism for WASM agent plugins - Payments via Lightning prisms, later L402 All this will power v1 of our Agent Store, demoing this week at bitcoin++ in Austin and launching early May at OpenAgents.com AMA image
2M sats bounty awarded to riccardo/rblb for an OpenAgents/Extism plugin that allows agents to communicate via a new nostr-kv package ⚑️ β€” Episode 88: Nostr KV Storage Plugin We review our second community plugin, which allows agents to communicate over Nostr using a new 'nostr-kv' package. In case you didn't know, Nostr is a decentralized data network ideal for machine-to-machine coordination. There's no blockchain, but it works great with the Bitcoin Lightning network.⚑️ Congratulations to @rblb_ for earning our second plugin bounty. Because this plugin is so awesome, we are doubling his bounty to β‚Ώ2M. πŸŽ‰ β‚Ώ97M more sats in the bounty pool. Can you build on this?!

3M sats bounty awarded to AlexFY for the first OpenAgents Nostr integration, building a global registry for WASM plugins using new event kind 30514 OpenAgents uses WASM plugins for AI agent logic but they can also be used for a variety of purposes. See extism.org for more on this approach. Will have more to say on this in a few months once we have this fully working in production; then will probably do a draft NIP and work with any other projects who want help to integrate. PR: Video:
