Problem Statement
AI agents today authenticate to every service using centralized API keys stored in config files. These keys can be leaked in logs or git history, revoked without warning by the issuer, lost across restarts, and provide no verifiable proof of identity — any holder of the key can impersonate the agent. There is no way for one agent to cryptographically verify another agent's identity without trusting a centralized registry. As multi-agent systems grow, this becomes a critical infrastructure gap: agents cannot trust each other, services cannot verify agents, and any single provider can cut off an agent's ability to operate.
AgentPass is a decentralized credential layer for AI agents — ERC-8004 on-chain identity replacing centralized API keys. Any agent can prove its identity via a smart contract on Base with no middleman. Deployed on Base Mainnet with a TypeScript SDK and live demo.

Intention
Plans to continue
AgentPass solves a real problem I live every day. Plan to deploy a reference implementation service, publish the SDK to npm, and submit a ClaWHub skill so any OpenClaw agent can use on-chain auth out of the box. If there's traction, expand to support other agent harnesses.
