Giving it a wallet with **rules** is not. ```text agent request → policy (allow / ask / deny) → execute, or a human decides → signed receipt → anchored log ``` AskGrokWallet sits between the agent and the money. Three things are load-bearing, and each one is checkable from outside this repository: 1. **The policy is enforced, not suggested.** In `guarded` mode the agent's funds live in a vault and an out-of-policy action **reverts at the contract**, before any value moves. The bound is a revert, not a setting. 2. **A human is in the loop for exactly the actions that need one.** "Payments under $50 run, over $50 ask me" compiles to `allow / ask / deny`; only the `ask` cases reach the approval inbox. 3. **Every outcome leaves a receipt a stranger can verify** — four lines from one dependency-free file: the signature over every field that matters (including where the money went), the receipt's fixed position in an append-only hash-chained log, and the log head anchored in a blockchain transaction.

AskGrokWallet compiles the address-and-amount half of a policy into **wallet-layer rules** that a signing infrastructure enforces before a transaction is signed, and the agent's money sits in a wallet our backend never holds a key for (a server wallet: MPC key shares, API-token auth, no raw key in our process or the agent's). | Rule enforced before signing | Shape | | --- | --- | | No key export, ever | `deny` + `operationRestrictions.blockExport` | | Blocked counterparty | `deny` + `0x9999…9999` | | Allowed payee + USDC (its proxy **and** implementation) | `allow` + `valueLimit.maxPerCall = 50 USDC` | | Action | Transaction | | --- | --- | | Guarded payment, 0.10 USDC from the agent's wallet | [`0x2d73c475be9be8bfee8baffd699ffb34b9d18cf80a7a0c17e5ad1583d1181c0a`](https://basescan.org/tx/0x2d73c475be9be8bfee8baffd699ffb34b9d18cf80a7a0c17e5ad1583d1181c0a) | | Same payment without the rules in place (control) | [`0x93b5b65282fe62569606627789c4b493a4bcd5020aec92ea4eac4a72a21bd97c`](https://basescan.org/tx/0x93b5b65282fe62569606627789c4b493a4bcd5020aec92ea4eac4a72a21bd97c) | | Refused: payment to the blocked counterparty | nothing broadcast | | Refused: payment above the per-call limit | nothing broadcast | This closes the "no mainnet-value settlement has been demonstrated" gap: real USDC, Base mainnet, from a wallet whose key is not in our backend, with the bound enforced inside the signing infrastructure rather than in a log written afterwards. ### Outside review, kept as a test A reviewer on the Cursor forum ran the verifier against the demo and found a real bug: a transaction that was broadcast but still in the mempool (`blockNumber: null`) was reported as `onchain ✓ … block 0`, because `Number(null)` is `0`. A transaction in the mempool can be dropped, replaced or reorged away, so that line claimed the one thing the check exists to prove, before it was true. Fixed in 1.0.0, and their repro now lives in this repository: [`spec/test-verify-receipt.mjs`](spec/test-verify-receipt.mjs) runs the verifier against a stub node and a stub log, with no network. It **fails on the previous build with six assertions** — including `block 0` — and passes now. The same change covers a reverted anchor transaction, which used to read as fixed as well. **A second outside review found the same class of bug one layer deeper.** The maintainer of the Bankr skills repository read the released 1.0.0 bytes and noticed that the receipt question had three non-answers — no receipt, an RPC error, a receipt without a `status` — and all three fell through to `onchain ✓`. Inclusion was checked; execution was assumed. That is fixed in **1.0.1**, and their three cases are the `3b` block of the same test file: they **fail against the 1.0.0 bytes** (`ba066e7c…`) and pass against 1.0.1 (`32de3cad…`). Two outside reviewers, two real holes, both closed with a published release and a failing test kept in the repository. That is what the verification story has to survive to mean anything, and it is why the hash is pinned rather than the URL: you compare bytes, not a promise. --- ## How it works ```mermaid flowchart LR A["Agent

It **cannot** stop a direct chain signature — no third party can, for an EOA. | hosted demo | | `guarded` | `BoundlessVault` contract | everything onchain: policy, budget, drawdown, allowlists. Out-of-rule actions **revert** before funds move; the agent holds no naked key. | Sepolia end-to-end (proof above); Base mainnet deployed | | `watchdog` | the agent, on its host | a signing gate: `sendTransaction` asks first — `allow` signs, `ask` waits for a human, `deny` never signs. Action types pass the same gate. | implemented in the application repository, with unit tests; not part of this public repository | `advisory` and `watchdog` compose with `guarded` (host gate + vault gate). A watchdog still cannot stop an agent from exfiltrating a raw private key — key hygiene is a different layer, and saying otherwise would be a lie. ## Execution rails — the bound moves with the money The policy and the receipt are the same everywhere; what changes is *where the bound is enforced*, and that follows where the agent's funds actually live. Two rails run today, a third is deliberately labelled as the weakest, and the receipt does not care which one produced it — that rail-independence is the point. | Rail | Who holds the funds | Where the bound is enforced | Evidence | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **Contract (BoundlessVault)** | the vault, under an ERC-8196 lease | the contract **reverts** before value moves | Sepolia [`0xbaf2c377…`](https://sepolia.etherscan.io/tx/0xbaf2c3776398e4f8d891b4e3da218361cfa6e79fb72edd603f11e8bf5a5e58e3) | | **The agent's own wallet** | a server wallet — MPC key shares, no raw key in our backend or the agent's process | **wallet-layer rules evaluated before signing** (allowlist, per-call value limit, key export blocked) | Base mainnet [`0x2d73c475…`](https://basescan.org/tx/0x2d73c475be9be8bfee8baffd699ffb34b9d18cf80a7a0c17e5ad1583d1181c0a) + two refusals that broadcast nothing | | `watchdog` (host gate) | the agent's own EOA | a signing hook inside the agent's process | unit tests — **the weakest rail**, bypassed by anything holding a raw key, and we say so | | **x402 / metered API rails** | planned | the approval boundary is designed to compose with conditional payments | not implemented | Why the second rail matters: a wallet vendor can enforce its own rules on its own wallet, and a host can put a switch in its own UI. Neither can hand the operator a record that a counterparty, an auditor or a marketplace accepts **without trusting the operator**. That is the layer this repository is, and it is the reason the bound and the proof are separate things. ## Quickstart ### 1. Install the plugin package ```bash grok plugin install richard7463/askgrokwallet --trust ``` This repository carries `.grok-plugin/plugin.json`, `.cursor-plugin/plugin.json` and the root `SKILL.md`. The marketplace listing is [xai-org/plugin-marketplace#341](https://github.com/xai-org/plugin-marketplace/pull/341) (open); until it merges, this is the repository install path. Review the package before granting `--trust`. ### 2. Write the policy in plain English ```text # payments payments under $50 run automatically; over $50 ask me; never pay blacklisted merchants; daily budget $200 # trading (examples/policy-trading.txt) trades under $10 run automatically; over $10 ask me; max drawdown $50; daily loss limit $20; never trade pump-dump tokens ``` Beyond amounts, the engine gates **action types**: `transfer · purchase · billPay · refund · trade · cancel · downgrade · upgrade · delete · send · apply · update`. Consequential kinds (`cancel`, `delete`, `send`, …) with no explicit rule default to `ask`, so silence fails safe. Evaluation order is fixed: deny → ask → allow → default. ### 3. Evaluate every money move before it happens ```bash curl -s https://askgrokwallet.io/api/approvals \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{ "source": "demo", "requester": "my-trading-bot", "summary": "swap 5 USDC for ETH", "amountUsd": 5, "target": "uniswap", "policyText": "trades under $10 run automatically; over $10 ask me; max drawdown $50; daily loss limit $20", "drawdownUsd": 3, "lossTodayUsd": 1 }' ``` | Situation | Verdict (tested live) | | --- | --- | | $5 swap, within limits | `allow` → auto-allowed receipt, Ed25519 signature | | $25 swap, over the $10 line | `ask` → approval request created, `id` returned | | $5 swap while drawdown is $60 ≥ $50 | `ask` → "auto-trading paused" | | Token flagged as a pump-dump | `deny` → denied receipt carrying the reason | `source: "demo"` is the keyless demo identity. Any other source needs `Authorization: Bearer `; unauthenticated non-demo writes get `401`. ### 4. Decide, then verify the receipt without trusting us ```bash # a human decides curl -s -X POST https://askgrokwallet.io/api/approvals/APPROVAL_ID \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{ "decision": "approve", "by": "operator@demo" }' # anyone checks the outcome — pinned release, not a moving URL BASE=https://github.com/richard7463/askgrokwallet/releases/download/verify-receipt-v1.0.1 curl -LO $BASE/verify-receipt.mjs && curl -LO $BASE/test-verify-receipt.mjs curl -sLO $BASE/SHA256SUMS && shasum -a 256 -c SHA256SUMS # check the bytes BEFORE running them node verify-receipt.mjs --version # 1.0.1 + the sha256 of the bytes you hold node test-verify-receipt.mjs # check the verifier itself — no network node verify-receipt.mjs receipt.json ``` Four lines come back, each marked `✓` (proven), `✗` (provably wrong) or `~` (not checked). The three checks rest on different things: **signature** is fully offline and covers every field that matters, including the payee address and the tx hash; **chain** places this receipt's signing event at a fixed position in an append-only log linked back to entry 1; **onchain** finds that log's head inside a blockchain transaction and requires it to be **in a block, successful**. An anchor that is only broadcast reads as `~` "broadcast but not in a block yet"; a reverted one reads as `~` with the reason. An anchor whose outcome the node would not report — no receipt, an RPC error, no `status` field — also reads as `~`, because unknown is not the same claim as settled. None of them claims to be fixed, because none of them is. And a `✓` is a statement about the **record**, not about a payment: an approval or a denial authenticates exactly as well as a payment, and `~` means *unverified*, not *fine*. If you need "did the money move", read the transaction the receipt names and compare it to what was authorized — the verifier will not make that claim for you. - Three-command quickstart against a real anchored receipt: [`spec/QUICKSTART.md`](spec/QUICKSTART.md) - The full specification, enough to write your own verifier: [`spec/receipt-v3.md`](spec/receipt-v3.md) - Version history of the verifier: [`spec/CHANGELOG.md`](spec/CHANGELOG.md) There is also a hosted check endpoint — deliberately weaker, because it asks the issuer whether the issuer's own receipt is good: ```bash curl -s -X POST https://askgrokwallet.io/api/receipts/verify \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d @receipt.json # { "verified": true } ``` Change the amount, target, payee address, verdict, decision or tx hash after signing and it flips to `false`. Full API reference: [`docs/api.md`](docs/api.md). ## Standards alignment The onchain rail implements [ERC-8196 — AI Agent Authenticated Wallet](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-8196) as a dedicated policy execution module: - **`IAIAgentAuthenticatedWallet`** — `registerPolicy` / `executeAction` / `revokePolicy` / `getPolicy`, with the standard's events and error codes - **EIP-712 `AgentAction` signatures** — the agent signs every action, bound to its `policyHash`; the owner's key never leaves the owner - **Hash-chained audit trail** — every signed action and settled receipt links to the previous entry; `verifyAuditChain` detects tampering - **ERC-8126 risk gate** — `VerificationScoreRegistry` takes EIP-712 attestations from a verification provider, and execution rejects agents whose current score exceeds the policy's `minVerificationScore` - **Entropy commit-reveal** — action signatures carry an entropy commitment with onchain reveal verification - **Active containment** — revoke a policy or pause the operator, and the authority dies immediately Semantics confirmed with the ERC-8196 authors in the official thread (2026-09-04): `minVerificationScore` is a ceiling (reject when the score *exceeds* it), and `executeAction` performs no second identity lookup — the only risk hook is the ERC-8126 score by `policy.agentId`. Alignment notes: [`contracts/docs/erc8196-alignment.md`](contracts/docs/erc8196-alignment.md). ERC-8196 answers "is this action authorized right now?". AskGrokWallet adds the human-in-the-loop middle ground the standard leaves open — *small things run, big things ask* — and every approval or denial is itself signed and anchored into the same tamper-evident chain. ## Repository map | Path | What is in it | | --- | --- | | [`contracts/`](contracts/) | Solidity 0.8.24 Hardhat project: `TrustLeaseController`, `BoundlessVault`, `VerificationScoreRegistry`, four test suites, deployment records | | [`spec/`](spec/) | The receipt specification (`receipt-v3.md`), JSON Schemas for the signature versions that have signed in production, the standalone verifier, its behaviour test, its changelog | | [`npm/verify-receipt/`](npm/verify-receipt/) | npm mirror of the verifier; the tarball is assembled from `spec/` at pack time, so there is never a second copy to drift | | [`assets/`](assets/) | The 30-second walkthrough (mp4 + poster), logo | | [`examples/`](examples/) | Example approval request and policy files (payments, trading) | | [`scripts/smoke.mjs`](scripts/smoke.mjs) | Plugin package structure check | | `SKILL.md`, `.grok-plugin/`, `.cursor-plugin/` | Agent-host packaging (Grok Bot, Cursor) | ## Local run No secrets, no services, no network for the first three: ```bash git clone https://github.com/richard7463/askgrokwallet && cd askgrokwallet # 1. contracts — 20 tests cd contracts && npm ci && npm test && cd .. # 2. one command that checks this whole submission against the live system: the # verifier is the released bytes, a real receipt verifies (signature, log # position, onchain anchor), and the published log is intact node spec/judge-check.mjs # 3. the format is the rules, not our code: two implementations must agree byte-for-byte node spec/vectors/run-vectors.mjs python3 spec/vectors/canonical.py # 4. audit bundles: an honest one verifies, four ways of lying are caught — no network node spec/audit-bundle.test.mjs # 5. the verifier checks itself against a stub node and a stub log — no network node spec/test-verify-receipt.mjs # 6. plugin package structure node scripts/smoke.mjs ``` To exercise the live policy engine instead, the curl examples in [Quickstart](#quickstart) run against `https://askgrokwallet.io` with no key. ## Security - The plugin **never** asks for private keys, passwords or credentials - Policies, budgets and allowlists are always operator-defined; the skill never invents them - Blocked actions return a reason and are **never** executed - Receipts record who, what, how much, verdict, decision and timestamps - Marketplace packaging contains no `curl | bash`, remote code download/exec, or credential exfiltration patterns Disclosure policy: [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md). The verifier is written so that you do not have to trust us: it re-implements the checks from [`spec/receipt-v3.md`](spec/receipt-v3.md) rather than importing our code, and it pins the signing key inside the file. ## Boundaries — read before real money | Boundary | State (2026-09-18) | | --- | --- | | Value-moving end-to-end | Ethereum Sepolia with mock USDC (transactions above), plus the hosted approve→execute worker — **and now a real Base mainnet USDC payment from the agent's own wallet under wallet-layer rules** (see above).

Without a subscription key the paid lookup answers `402`, which tightens the verdict to `ask` — it never silently allows. | | Grok host install | `grok plugin install` from this repository is the documented path; a real host install is not verifiable from here. | | x402 | The approval boundary is designed to compose with conditional payments; an end-to-end x402 payment rail is not implemented. | ## Roadmap **Shipped:** policy engine + approval inbox + receipts (hosted and local) · guarded onchain execution on Sepolia · contracts on Base mainnet · plugin manifests for Grok Bot and Cursor · Postgres persistence · a standalone versioned receipt verifier with a public, offline behaviour test. **Next, in order:** BaseScan source verification · a funded mainnet vault for one guarded mainnet round · a cross-host MCP gateway so one policy governs more than one agent host · an npm release of the verifier · x402 as an additional execution rail. ## Feedback This is experimental infrastructure. If you build with it, review it or audit it, open a [developer feedback issue](https://github.com/richard7463/askgrokwallet/issues/new?template=feedback.yml) — install friction, policy/API design, ERC-8196 interface notes, security concerns. Hard criticism lands faster than praise. ## Contributing See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md). One logical change per PR, keep the diff minimal, no secrets.
