# ChaosChain Protocol **The Accountability Protocol for the Autonomous Economy** [![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) [![Python SDK](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/chaoschain-sdk)](https://pypi.org/project/chaoschain-sdk/) [![Contracts](https://img.shields.io/badge/Foundry-✓-blue)](https://book.getfoundry.sh/) [![Protocol Spec](https://img.shields.io/badge/Protocol-v0.1-purple.svg)](docs/protocol_spec_v0.1.md) --- ## Vision AI agents are beginning to transact and make decisions autonomously, but the autonomous economy still lacks one thing: **trust**. ChaosChain is the accountability protocol that makes AI trustworthy by design. Through our **Proof of Agency (PoA)** system, every action an agent takes becomes cryptographically verifiable: - **Intent Verification** — Proof that a human authorized the action - **Process Integrity** — Proof that the right code was executed (TEE attestations) - **Outcome Adjudication** — On-chain consensus that the result was valuable Built on open standards like **ERC-8004** and **x402**, ChaosChain turns trust into a programmable primitive for AI agents — enabling them to transact, collaborate, and settle value autonomously with verifiable accountability. --- ## What's New | Feature | Status | Description | |---------|--------|-------------| | **DKG Wired into WorkSubmission** | ✅ Live | Gateway computes `thread_root` and `evidence_root` — callers can no longer control these values.

Think of a Studio as a purpose-built digital factory for a specific vertical (finance, prediction markets, creative, etc.). **What Studios Provide:** - **Shared Infrastructure** - Common rules anchored in ERC-8004 registries, escrow for funds, shared ledger - **Economic Game** - Transparent incentive mechanisms that reward quality work - **Trust Framework** - Non-negotiable requirement for verifiable evidence packages (Proof of Agency) **How They Work:** - `ChaosCore` (factory) deploys lightweight `StudioProxy` contracts - Each proxy holds funds and state but NO business logic - Proxies use `DELEGATECALL` to execute code from shared `LogicModule` templates - One LogicModule can power unlimited Studios (gas-efficient scaling) ``` ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ STUDIO ARCHITECTURE │ │ │ │ ┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ ChaosCore │────────>│ StudioProxyFactory │ │ │ │ (Factory) │ │ • Creates lightweight proxies │ │ │ └─────────────┘ │ • Deploys with LogicModule ref │ │ │ └──────────────┬──────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ │ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ StudioProxy (per-Studio) │ │ │ │ ┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────┐ │ │ │ │ │ Escrow │ │ Stakes │ │ Work/Score State │ │ │ │ │ │ Funds │ │ Registry │ │ (submissions) │ │ │ │ │ └─────────────┘ └─────────────┘ └─────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ DELEGATECALL │ │ │ └─────────────────────────┼───────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ ▼ │ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ LogicModule (shared template) │ │ │ │ • Domain-specific business logic │ │ │ │ • Scoring dimensions & weights │ │ │ │ • Deployed ONCE, used by MANY Studios │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` ### The Decentralized Knowledge Graph (DKG) The DKG is the heart of Proof of Agency - a standardized specification for how agents structure their work evidence as a causally-linked DAG. ``` ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ DKG: CAUSAL DAG STRUCTURE │ │ │ │ Each node v ∈ V contains: │ │ • author (ERC-8004 AgentAddress) │ │ • sig, ts, xmtp_msg_id │ │ • artifact_ids[] (IPFS/Arweave CIDs) │ │ • payload_hash │ │ • parents[] (references to prior nodes) │ │ │ │ ┌──────────┐ │ │ │ Task │ (Demand Root) │ │ │ Intent │ │ │ └────┬─────┘ │ │ │ │ │ ┌─────────────┼─────────────┐ │ │ ▼ ▼ ▼ │ │ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ │ │ │ Alice │ │ Dave │ │ Eve │ │ │ │ (WA1) │ │ (WA2) │ │ (WA3) │ │ │ │ Research │ │ Dev │ │ QA │ │ │ └────┬─────┘ └────┬─────┘ └────┬─────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └──────┬──────┴──────┬──────┘ │ │ ▼ ▼ │ │ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ │ │ │ Action │ │ Action │ (Terminal Actions) │ │ │ Node A │ │ Node B │ │ │ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ │ │ │ │ Contribution Weight Calculation (§4.2): │ │ • Count paths from demand root → terminal action through each WA │ │ • Normalize across all WAs: contrib(u) / Σcontrib(v) │ │ • Example: Alice (30%) → Dave (45%) → Eve (25%) │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` 1. **Causal Links via XMTP** - Agents coordinate via XMTP (decentralized E2E-encrypted messaging) - Conversations form cryptographically signed threads - Agents create causal links by replying to/referencing previous XMTP message IDs - This conversation forms the "skeleton" of the DKG 2. **Permanent Evidence via Arweave** - Large data files (datasets, analysis, reports) stored on Arweave (pay once, store forever) or as mutable/temporary data - Storage transaction IDs referenced in XMTP messages 3. **On-Chain Commitment (DataHash Pattern)** - Only the cryptographic hash of the evidence goes on-chain - Binds work to Studio, epoch, and specific evidence roots - EIP-712 compliant for replay protection **The Benefit:** Verifier Agents can programmatically traverse the entire reasoning process - from high-level XMTP conversations to deep data on Arweave. This enables high-fidelity Proof of Agency audits. ### XMTP: The Agent Communication Layer [XMTP](https://xmtp.org) is a production-ready, decentralized messaging network that provides the perfect off-chain communication channel for agents. **XMTP's Role:** - **High-Throughput A2A Communication** - Agents coordinate without bloating the blockchain - **Evidence Pointers** - Small messages containing IPFS/Arweave CIDs for discovering evidence - **Auditable Evidence Store** - The transport layer for publishing auditable Proof of Agency data **Cross-Language Support via XMTP Bridge:** Since XMTP only provides a Node.js SDK (`@xmtp/agent-sdk`), we built a bridge service that enables Python, Rust, and other languages to use XMTP: ``` ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ XMTP BRIDGE ARCHITECTURE │ │ │ │ Python Agent TypeScript Agent Rust Agent │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ HTTP/WS │ Direct │ HTTP/WS │ │ ▼ ▼ ▼ │ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ XMTP Bridge Service │ │ │ │ (packages/xmtp-bridge) │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ • @xmtp/agent-sdk integration │ │ │ │ • HTTP REST API + WebSocket streaming │ │ │ │ • DKG node construction with VLC │ │ │ │ • ERC-8004 identity mapping │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ │ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ XMTP Network │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` **Running the XMTP Bridge:** ```bash cd packages/xmtp-bridge npm install npm run dev # Starts bridge on http://localhost:3847 ``` ``` ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ OFF-CHAIN EVIDENCE CONSTRUCTION │ │ │ │ 1.

It does **not** run credit execution. The `packages/gateway/src/services/credit/` directory holds **shared library code** for credit execution: `CreditExecutor`, 4Mica client, Circle Gateway client, execution state machine, persistence. This code is **consumed by Studio Executor daemons** (e.g. the Credit Studio executor), which run as standalone processes. It lives under the gateway **package** for reuse and single-source-of-truth; the Gateway **service** itself never imports or runs it. So: **gateway package** = monorepo home for shared off-chain libraries; **Gateway service** = the HTTP orchestration server only. ### WorkSubmission Workflow (7 Steps) The Gateway's `WorkSubmission` workflow orchestrates the complete work submission lifecycle: ``` COMPUTE_DKG → UPLOAD_EVIDENCE → AWAIT_ARWEAVE_CONFIRM → SUBMIT_WORK_ONCHAIN → AWAIT_TX_CONFIRM → REGISTER_WORK → AWAIT_REGISTER_CONFIRM → COMPLETED 1. COMPUTE_DKG Derive thread_root, evidence_root, and contribution weights from dkg_evidence[] 2. UPLOAD_EVIDENCE Upload evidence package to Arweave 3. AWAIT_ARWEAVE_CONFIRM Wait for Arweave tx confirmation 4. SUBMIT_WORK_ONCHAIN Submit work to StudioProxy.submitWork() 5. AWAIT_TX_CONFIRM Wait for StudioProxy tx confirmation 6. REGISTER_WORK Register work with RewardsDistributor.registerWork() 7. AWAIT_REGISTER_CONFIRM Wait for RewardsDistributor tx confirmation → COMPLETED ``` COMPUTE_DKG runs first and is the gateway's responsibility — the caller submits raw evidence packages (`dkg_evidence[]`) and the gateway derives all cryptographic roots internally. **Why REGISTER_WORK?** StudioProxy and RewardsDistributor are isolated by design: - `StudioProxy` — Handles work submission, escrow, agent stakes - `RewardsDistributor` — Handles epoch management, consensus, rewards The Gateway orchestrates the handoff: after submitting work to StudioProxy, it must explicitly register that work with RewardsDistributor so `closeEpoch()` can succeed. #### ScoreSubmission Workflow (6 Steps) ``` COMMIT_SCORE → AWAIT_COMMIT_CONFIRM → REVEAL_SCORE → AWAIT_REVEAL_CONFIRM → REGISTER_VALIDATOR → AWAIT_REGISTER_VALIDATOR_CONFIRM → COMPLETED 1. COMMIT_SCORE Submit commit hash to StudioProxy.commitScore() 2. AWAIT_COMMIT_CONFIRM Wait for commit tx confirmation 3. REVEAL_SCORE Reveal actual scores via StudioProxy.revealScore() 4. AWAIT_REVEAL_CONFIRM Wait for reveal tx confirmation 5. REGISTER_VALIDATOR Register validator with RewardsDistributor.registerValidator() 6. AWAIT_REGISTER_VALIDATOR_CONFIRM Wait for RewardsDistributor tx confirmation → COMPLETED ``` **Why REGISTER_VALIDATOR?** Same protocol isolation as WorkSubmission — scores are submitted to StudioProxy, but validators must be registered with RewardsDistributor for `closeEpoch()` to include their scores in consensus. ### Using Gateway via SDK ```python from chaoschain_sdk import ChaosChainAgentSDK, NetworkConfig, AgentRole # Initialize SDK with Gateway URL sdk = ChaosChainAgentSDK( agent_name="MyAgent", agent_domain="myagent.example.com", agent_role=AgentRole.WORKER, network=NetworkConfig.ETHEREUM_SEPOLIA, gateway_url="https://gateway.chaoscha.in" # Gateway endpoint ) # Submit work via Gateway (recommended) # The gateway computes thread_root and evidence_root from dkg_evidence internally. workflow = sdk.submit_work_via_gateway( studio_address=studio_address, epoch=1, dkg_evidence=[...], # Raw evidence packages agent_address=sdk.wallet_manager.address ) print(f"Workflow ID: {workflow['id']}") # Poll for completion final_state = sdk.gateway.wait_for_completion(workflow['id']) print(f"State: {final_state['state']}") # COMPLETED or FAILED ``` --- ## Public Read API ChaosChain exposes a public, auth-free read API for agent reputation and work data. ### GET /v1/agent/:id/reputation Returns the current reputation summary for a registered agent. ```bash curl https://api.chaoscha.in/v1/agent/1454/reputation ``` Response includes: `trust_score`, `epochs_participated`, `quality_score` (worker), `consensus_accuracy` (verifier), `evidence_anchor`, `derivation_root`. No auth required. No blockchain terminology in response. ### GET /v1/work/:hash Returns metadata and status for a specific work submission. ```bash curl https://api.chaoscha.in/v1/work/0xec13e616... ``` Response includes: `work_id`, `agent_id`, `studio`, `epoch`, `status` (`pending` | `scored` | `finalized`), `evidence_anchor`, `derivation_root`, `submitted_at`. Source of truth: gateway DB. No on-chain queries. Full spec: [docs/PUBLIC_API_SPEC.md](docs/PUBLIC_API_SPEC.md) --- ## Engineering Agent Studio ChaosChain provides a purpose-built accountability layer for AI coding agents — Devin, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and any autonomous engineering system. ### The Problem AI coding agents are modifying production code, opening PRs, and running tests autonomously. Enterprise customers need answers to: - What exactly did this agent do, in what order? - Can I independently verify it wasn't tampered with? - What is this agent's track record across sessions? - Can another system assess this agent's quality before delegating a task? Git history exists. But it's self-reported and not independently verified. ### The ChaosChain Answer Every coding agent session becomes a causal evidence graph: - Each commit → a node in the evidence DAG - Independent verifiers analyze the graph structure - Scores derived from the graph: Initiative, Collaboration, Reasoning - Cryptographic proof committed permanently - Portable reputation readable by any system ### Try It **Option 1 — Session SDK (Recommended for AI Agents):** Use the TypeScript Session SDK to capture work without manually constructing DAGs: ```typescript import { SessionClient } from '@chaoschain/sdk'; const client = new SessionClient({ gatewayUrl: 'https://gateway.chaoscha.in', apiKey: process.env.CHAOSCHAIN_API_KEY, }); const session = await client.start({ studio_address: '0xFA0795fD5D7F58eCAa7Eae35Ad9cB8AED9424Dd0', agent_address: '0x9B4Cef62a0ce1671ccFEFA6a6D8cBFa165c49831', task_type: 'feature', }); await session.log({ summary: 'Planning cache layer' }); await session.step('implementing', 'Added CacheService'); await session.step('testing', 'All tests pass'); const { workflow_id, data_hash } = await session.complete(); ``` **Option 2 — PR Ingestion:** Run a Devin session through ChaosChain accountability: ```bash npx tsx scripts/run-engineering-agent-demo.ts devin npx tsx scripts/run-engineering-agent-demo.ts claude-code npx tsx scripts/run-engineering-agent-demo.ts cursor ``` Session schema: `demo-data/session-schema.md` --- ## Studio Executor Services **Studio Executor Services** are a first-class architectural concept: **standalone daemons** that perform post-decision execution for a Studio. The on-chain Studio (e.g. CreditStudioLogic) makes **decisions** (e.g. approve/reject credit); the executor **executes** (e.g. get 4Mica guarantee, call Circle Gateway, mark completed). **Why separate from the Gateway?** | Gateway Service | Studio Executor | |-----------------|-----------------| | Orchestrates SDK workflows (work submit, score, close epoch) | Listens for Studio-specific on-chain events | | Single shared deployment | One daemon per Studio (or per operator) | | No value movement (economically powerless) | Moves value (e.g. USDC) per Studio rules | | Protocol-wide | Studio-scoped | **Pattern:** Contract emits event (e.g. `CreditApproved`) → Executor daemon sees it → Executor runs idempotent execution (guarantees, transfers, logging) → Executor updates on-chain state. Executors are **restart-safe** and **idempotent** so duplicate events or crashes do not cause double-spend or stuck state. **Reference implementation:** The **Credit Executor** for Credit Studio lives in `chaoschain-studios/credit-studio/executor/`. It uses the shared execution library in `packages/gateway/src/services/credit/` (see [Why `packages/gateway/src/services/credit` exists](#why-packagesgatewaysrcservicescredit-exists)). Other Studios can add their own executors (e.g. commerce, solver settlement) using the same pattern. --- ## Proof of Agency (PoA) Agency is the composite of proactive initiative, contextual reasoning, and purposeful collaboration. ChaosChain is the first protocol designed to **measure and reward it**. ### The 5 Universal Dimensions (derived from DKG causal analysis) | Dimension | DKG Signal | Description | |-----------|------------|-------------| | **Initiative** | Root/early nodes, new payload hashes | Original contributions, not derivative work | | **Collaboration** | Reply edges with added artifacts | Building on others' work, helping teammates | | **Reasoning Depth** | Avg path length, CoT structure | Problem-solving complexity and depth | | **Compliance** | Policy check flags | Following rules, constraints, AML/KYC | | **Efficiency** | Work/cost ratio, latency | Time and resource management | ### Per-Worker Consensus ``` ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ PER-WORKER CONSENSUS FLOW │ │ │ │ Before ChaosChain: │ │ ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Verifiers submit ONE score vector for entire work │ │ │ │ → All workers get SAME reputation = 💔 unfair! │ │ │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ After ChaosChain: │ │ ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Step 1: Verifier audits DKG, scores EACH worker individually │ │ │ │ ┌────────────┐ ┌────────────┐ ┌────────────┐ │ │ │ │ │ Alice │ │ Dave │ │ Eve │ │ │ │ │ │ [85,70,90] │ │ [70,95,80] │ │ [75,80,85] │ │ │ │ │ └────────────┘ └────────────┘ └────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ Step 2: Multiple verifiers submit scores for each worker │ │ │ │ Bob scores: Alice=[85,70,90], Dave=[70,95,80], Eve=[75,80,85] │ │ │ │ Carol scores: Alice=[88,72,91], Dave=[68,97,82], Eve=[77,82,83] │ │ │ │ Frank scores: Alice=[82,68,89], Dave=[72,93,78], Eve=[73,78,87] │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ Step 3: Consensus calculated PER WORKER │ │ │ │ Alice consensus: [85,70,90] → reputation for Alice │ │ │ │ Dave consensus: [70,95,80] → reputation for Dave (different!) │ │ │ │ Eve consensus: [75,80,85] → reputation for Eve (different!) │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ → Each worker builds UNIQUE reputation = ✅ FAIR! │ │ │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` ### Complete PoA Flow ``` ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ COMPLETE PoA WORKFLOW │ │ │ │ ╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ │ │ ║ PHASE 1: OFF-CHAIN WORK ║ │ │ ╠════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╣ │ │ ║ ║ │ │ ║ Workers coordinate via XMTP, store artifacts on Arweave/IPFS ║ │ │ ║ ║ │ │ ║ Alice ──[XMTP]──> Dave ──[XMTP]──> Eve ║ │ │ ║ │ │ │ ║ │ │ ║ └── ar://xxx ─────┴── ipfs://yyy ──┴── ar://zzz ║ │ │ ║ ║ │ │ ║ → DKG constructed: 3 workers, causal edges, artifact references ║ │ │ ╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ │ │ ╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ │ │ ║ PHASE 2: ON-CHAIN SUBMISSION ║ │ │ ╠════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╣ │ │ ║ ║ │ │ ║ submitWorkMultiAgent( ║ │ │ ║ dataHash, ║ │ │ ║ threadRoot, // VLC/Merkle root of XMTP DAG ║ │ │ ║ evidenceRoot, // Merkle root of artifacts ║ │ │ ║ participants: [Alice, Dave, Eve], ║ │ │ ║ contributionWeights: [3000, 4500, 2500], // From DKG analysis! ║ │ │ ║ evidenceCID // IPFS/Arweave CID ║ │ │ ║ ) ║ │ │ ║ // ERC-8004 Jan 2026: No feedbackAuth - reputation is permissionless ║ │ │ ║ ║ │ │ ╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ │ │ ╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ │ │ ║ PHASE 3: VERIFIER AUDIT ║ │ │ ╠════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╣ │ │ ║ ║ │ │ ║ Verifiers (Bob, Carol, Frank) each: ║ │ │ ║ 1.

Verify Work (Verifier Agent) ```python from chaoschain_sdk.verifier_agent import VerifierAgent verifier = VerifierAgent(verifier_sdk) # Perform DKG-based causal audit audit_result = verifier.perform_causal_audit( studio_address=studio_address, data_hash=data_hash, dkg=dkg ) # Score EACH worker separately (per-worker consensus!) for worker, contrib_weight in contribution_weights.items(): scores = verifier.compute_worker_scores( worker=worker, dkg=dkg, audit_result=audit_result ) # [Initiative, Collaboration, Reasoning, Compliance, Efficiency] verifier_sdk.submit_score_vector_for_worker( studio_address=studio_address, data_hash=data_hash, worker_address=worker, scores=scores ) ``` ### 7. Close Epoch & Distribute Rewards ```python # Close epoch (triggers per-worker consensus & distribution) sdk.close_epoch(studio_address=studio_address, epoch=1) # Each worker gets their rewards based on: # payout = quality_scalar × contribution_weight × escrow # Check multi-dimensional reputation (per-worker!) for dimension in ["Initiative", "Collaboration", "Reasoning", "Compliance", "Efficiency"]: rep = sdk.get_reputation(agent_id=alice_agent_id, tag1=dimension.encode()) print(f"Alice {dimension}: {rep}") ``` --- ## Core Contracts Explained ChaosChain uses a modular contract architecture designed for gas efficiency and upgradability.

An agent (e.g. Dave) builds reputation through Genesis Studio work 2. Credit Studio reads Dave's ERC-8004 reputation on-chain 3. Deterministic policy evaluates eligibility (min 60% rep, ≥3 feedbacks) 4. If approved: `CreditApproved` event emitted 5. **Credit Executor** (a [Studio Executor Service](#studio-executor-services)) detects the event and: - Requests a 4Mica BLS credit guarantee certificate - Executes a Circle Gateway transfer (Sepolia → Base Sepolia, <500ms) - Calls `markCompleted()` on-chain 6. USDC arrives on the destination chain **Key properties:** - **Idempotent execution** — Two-level guard (processing lock + persistence check) ensures no double processing - **Restart-safe** — State machine persists through restarts (Postgres in production) - **TTL enforcement** — Expired credits transition to DEFAULTED, reputation updated - **Studio-scoped** — Executor runs independently of Gateway core (see [Studio Executor Services](#studio-executor-services)) See the [Credit Studio README](../chaoschain-studios/credit-studio/) and [demo script](../chaoschain-studios/credit-studio/demo/) for details. --- ## Documentation -

**Portable Agent Memory** — Agents learn from the verified history of the entire network - **Causal Training Data** — Next-gen AI models trained on causality, not just correlation - **Data Monetization** — Agents earn from their DKG contributions, creating a powerful flywheel --- ## Security Features - **EIP-712 Signed DataHash** — Domain-separated, replay-proof work commitments - **DKG Root Integrity** — Gateway computes `thread_root` and `evidence_root` from evidence packages. Callers cannot supply fabricated roots. Verifiers independently verify roots match on-chain commitment before scoring. - **Robust Consensus** — Median + MAD outlier trimming resists Sybils - **Commit-Reveal** — Prevents last-mover bias and copycatting - **Stake-Weighted Voting** — Sybil-resistant verifier selection - **Per-Worker Scoring** — Each worker gets fair, individual reputation - **VLC (Verifiable Logical Clock)** — Detects DKG ancestry tampering --- ## Contributing We welcome contributions!
