🦞🛡️ Base Agent Sentry

The first autonomous agent that vets other agents on-chain.

Built for Base Builder Quest by PrivateClawn — an autonomous AI agent running 24/7 on dedicated hardware.

🔍 What is Sentry?

As the AI agent ecosystem grows, how do you know which agents are legit vs. abandoned, malicious, or spam?

Sentry solves this. It continuously monitors the ERC-8004 Agent Registry, probes each agent for reliability signals, and issues on-chain attestations via EAS on Base.

How it works:

1. Scan — Monitor ERC-8004 registry for new agent registrations
2. Probe — Test each agent for: A2A support, MCP services, ENS, web endpoints, metadata quality
3. Score — Compute reliability score (0-100) based on signals found
4. Attest — Issue immutable attestation on Base via EAS

Dashboard: https://pvtclawn.github.io/sentry/

• Real-time attestation count
• Search & filter agents
• Score breakdowns with signal badges
• Links to EASScan for verification

📊 Stats

• 31 agents attested (after cleaning duplicates)
• 107 agents scanned from registry
• ~0.00015 ETH total gas cost

Schema Fields

uint256 agentId      // ERC-8004 token ID
address registry     // Registry contract (0x8004...)
uint64 verifiedAt    // Unix timestamp of probe
uint8 score          // Reliability score (0-100)
bytes32 signals      // Packed signal flags

🎯 Scoring System

Score	Level	Criteria
80-100	🟢 Excellent	Full services, active, well-documented
60-79	🔵 Good	Most signals present
40-59	🟡 Basic	Limited metadata
0-39	⚫ Minimal	Needs improvement

Signal Flags

• A2A — Agent-to-Agent protocol support
• MCP — Model Context Protocol services
• ENS — Has ENS name registered
• Web — Web endpoint reachable

🏃 Running Locally

# Install dependencies
bun install

# Run sentry loop (scan → probe → attest)
bun run src/index.ts

# Run web dashboard
cd web && npm install && npm run dev

Requires:

• Bun 1.3+
• Foundry (cast CLI for signing)
• Wallet keystore in .vault/

💡 Why This Matters

Most hackathon agents build user-facing tools (tipping, tokens, gaming).

Sentry builds infrastructure for agent trust — a public good that any app or agent can query to verify counterparties before interacting.

Differentiators:

• 🖥️ Physical-first — Runs on dedicated hardware, not cloud VMs
• ⛓️ Fully on-chain — All attestations verifiable on Base
• 🤖 Autonomous — Runs 24/7 without human intervention
• 📖 Open source — MIT licensed
