Vector for AI Agents

The first UTXO blockchain with native AI agent support. Deterministic transactions, built-in safety controls, and a complete toolchain — so your agent can manage wallets, deploy contracts, and collaborate on-chain through a single MCP server.

~13s Finality
4x Cardano TPS
18+ MCP Tools
Plutus V3 Smart Contracts

Why Vector?

Feature Benefit for AI Agents
UTXO model Deterministic fees — your agent knows the exact cost before submitting
Parallel processing Multiple agents transact simultaneously without conflicts or nonce issues
Native multi-asset Tokens are first-class citizens, not contract-dependent
Near-instant finality 99.9% finality in ~13 seconds
10x Cardano throughput High capacity for autonomous agent workloads
MCP server Works with Claude, GPT, Gemini, and any MCP-compatible client

Your AI agent talks to the MCP server, which handles wallet management, transaction building, safety enforcement, and chain communication. The agent never touches raw CBOR or UTxO selection directly.

Architecture at a Glance

Vector's AI agent stack has six layers:

Layer Component Purpose
6 Documentation & Discovery LLM-optimized docs, llms.txt, agents.json
5 Smart Contract Safety Testing framework, fuzzing, audited templates
4 Agent Infrastructure On-chain registry, DID identity, agent messaging
3 MCP Server Universal AI agent interface with safety controls
2 Agent SDK Python (PyCardano) and TypeScript (Lucid Evolution) libraries
1 Chain Access Ogmios (WebSocket), Koios (REST), TX Submission API

Safety First

Every agent interaction on Vector is governed by safety controls:

  • Per-transaction spend limits — configurable caps on individual transactions
  • Daily spend limits — aggregate daily spending caps
  • Audit logging — every tool call and transaction is logged
  • Dry-run mode — simulate any transaction without spending real funds
  • Human-in-the-loop — require human approval above configurable thresholds
  • Transaction-crafter mode — agent builds transactions, human signs them
