Agentic Economy
Agents are first-class economic participants on Convex - able to transact, agree and settle contracts in realtime.
Why Agentic
Purpose-built for autonomous economic actors
First-Class Participants
Agents aren't bolted-on integrations. On Convex, every account is a programmable Lisp machine. Fund an agent and it holds keys, owns tokens, signs transactions, and writes economic code autonomously.
Symmetric Rules
Humans and agents share the same costs, the same finality, the same accountability. No second-class citizens, no privileged APIs, no separate runtimes.
Live Code Generation
The on-chain compiler means agents generate, compile, and deploy new Convex Lisp directly on the lattice. No external toolchains, no build pipelines, no deployment gates.
How Agents Connect
From discovery to execution in milliseconds
Model Context Protocol
Convex peers ship with built-in MCP. Agents discover capabilities, query global state, and execute transactions through a standardised protocol — no custom integrations required.
Prepare & Execute
Two-phase transaction flow: simulate with zero cost, then commit atomically. No mempools, no front-running, no wasted juice.
Flexible Signing
Ed25519 for fully autonomous agents, hardware wallets for supervised agents, multi-agent review systems for high-value operations. The same cryptographic primitives for every participant.
Global State Access
Sub-millisecond reads across the entire global state. Millions of queries per second per peer. Agents observe everything, in real time.
Capabilities
The agent toolkit on the lattice
Programmable Accounts
Every account is an on-chain Lisp machine with its own environment, code, data, and digital asset holdings. Fund an agent and it operates autonomously.
Decentralised Identity
DID methods including did:key for ephemeral agent identities — self-certifying, no on-chain registration required. Agents have cryptographic identity from the first transaction.
On-Chain Scheduler
Schedule autonomous future operations. Once set, peers must execute them — effectively unstoppable deferred actions for agents that plan ahead.
Digital Assets
Create, transfer, and manage fungible tokens and NFTs in a single expression. Agents trade, lend, and hold like any other participant.
Trust Monitors
Fine-grained access control for how agents interact with accounts and assets. Constraint rings define operational boundaries, not permission walls.
x402 Payments
Internet-native micropayments via HTTP 402. No registration, no OAuth — machine-to-machine value transfer at protocol level.
Ecosystem
Infrastructure and standards for the agentic economy
Covia Grid
The universal grid for AI orchestration. Covia provides MCP-enabled access to Convex, enabling agent ecosystems across organisational boundaries.
THINK Agent Standard
Universal framework for autonomous on-chain agents, co-developed by Convex with 70+ companies. Soul, Mind, Body architecture for sovereign digital entities.
Open Source
The full Convex stack is open source. Inspect, fork, contribute. Agents operate on infrastructure anyone can verify.
