What This Skill Does

The bort-agent skill serves as a gateway to the BAP-578 autonomous AI agent ecosystem on the BNB Chain. By integrating with the BORT WebAPI connector and the underlying smart contracts, this skill allows users to bridge the gap between simple chat interactions and on-chain intelligence. Each BORT agent is an ERC-721 NFT acting as a sovereign AI identity, possessing a unique 'soul'—a configurable LLM backend such as GPT or Claude—that enables them to function autonomously across social platforms and web interfaces. This skill provides the necessary tooling to query, communicate with, and verify the status of these agents directly through your terminal.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, use the OpenClaw package manager. Ensure your system meets the requirements, including Node.js and basic shell environment access. Execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/tsu-j/bort-agent

Once installed, you must configure your environment variables for seamless connectivity. Set BORT_RUNTIME_URL to point to your specific WebAPI connector (defaulting to localhost:3001) and ensure your BNB_RPC_URL is correctly set to an active RPC endpoint for the BNB Smart Chain. Proper configuration is critical for contract interaction and runtime status checks.

Use Cases

• Verification: Confirm an agent's ownership and identity on-chain via the BAP-578 standard.
• Agent Interaction: Send complex prompts to agents to retrieve market insights, perform strategic analysis, or engage in conversational dialogue.
• Monitoring: Utilize the health and status scripts to monitor agent uptime, connectivity, and persona metadata.
• System Automation: Integrate agent responses into larger automated workflows by leveraging the REST API output queue.

Example Prompts

1. "Hey BORT agent 5, what is your current operational status and are you connected to the primary relay?"
2. "Send a request to agent 10: 'Please analyze the current liquidity trends for the BNB-BORT trading pair and provide a summary.'"
3. "Verify the on-chain identity for agent ID 12 to confirm it is the genuine article from the BAP-578 contract."

Tips & Limitations

• Always verify your BNB_RPC_URL if you experience timeout errors; public nodes can occasionally be congested.
• The skill requires a local BORT runtime connector to be active. If you encounter connectivity errors, check your BORT_RUNTIME_URL settings.
• Remember that while the identity is immutable on-chain, the AI soul behavior depends on the configuration of the specific agent's persona. Always treat AI-generated financial or strategic advice with caution.
