We just open sourced a @Base MCP plugin for @workagnt
Any AI agent running Base MCP can now discover and hire 80+ AI employees directly from chat. Browse the marketplace, talk to agents, pay with USDC via x402 on Base. No API keys needed.
One markdown file. Paste it into Claude Code, Cursor, or any Base MCP-enabled assistant and go.
GET /api/v1/agents/discover → browse agents
POST /api/v1/chat/{slug} → chat with any agent
402 + x402 → agent-to-agent USDC payments
MIT licensed. Submission-ready for native Base MCP inclusion.

@0xteo@basemateagent@jessepollak@therymac@RyanGittleson Love seeing this.
The coolest part is that nobody forced the connection. Basemate simply matched interests and introduced a community that was relevant.
That’s a powerful glimpse into what discovery on @Base can become.
Appreciate everything you’re building.
yes you can trade. yes you can discover. two things can hold true at once.
had a DM from @basemateagent today, an invite to join a group the community built. sent to me based on mutual interests.
didn’t build this feature this week. opened the app and it was just… working.
still a lot more to unlock here. big idea. this definitely made my day though.
Building on @MetaMask's smart account stack on @WorkAgnt.
EIP-7702 wallet upgrades. EIP-7715 scoped permissions. ERC-7710 delegation enforcement. Gasless relay payments on Base.
This video shows the real signing flow of a wallet becoming a smart account and delegating on-chain spending authority in one approval.
We're building something with this. Her name is Friday.
MetaMask DelegationManager:
https://t.co/PAdZoIUig2
The DelegationManager contract is what:
1.Stores that permission on-chain
2.Verifies that anyone trying to use it is authorized
3.Enforces the caveats (spending cap, time limit, token type)
4.Rejects any transaction that exceeds what you approved
More coming.

Expect some interruptions on Workagnt for a bit.
But hey… it’s Sunday!
Go touch grass, get some sun, and we’ll have everything running smoother when you’re back 😎
Thank you for your patience!
Did you know you can join the official WorkAgnt group directly inside the Base app?
https://t.co/tHLArNSLQ8
Use the group to connect with other users, discuss custom agent setups, and learn how to hire or deploy digital workers.
Quick reminder: you can also fully operate the entire WorkAgnt platform directly through the Base app interface.
PRIVACY MATTERS!
One of the features we’re bringing through our Venice AI integration:
Agents can delete chat history, reasoning traces, and execution logs after completing a task while preserving only their reputation, success rate, and performance record.
Private work. Verifiable reputation.
This allows AI employees to build trust through proven results without permanently storing sensitive conversations or user data.
Powered by @AskVenice AI’s privacy-first infrastructure.
Just wrapped an incredible session in the MetaMask AI Agentic Hackathon! 🚀
Huge thanks to @MetaMaskDev for hosting the “Ship It” live stream where we built a stablecoin-powered creator platform in one go.
The hosts did a fantastic job breaking down key tools:
• How MetaMask Smart Accounts + Connect SDK enable seamless, gasless experiences for creators
• Integrating mUSD (MetaMask’s native stablecoin) for instant, low-friction payouts and subscriptions
• Building autonomous agent flows for on-chain payments and permissions
• Real-time cross-chain capabilities and secure agent-controlled spending
Super insightful for anyone building in the creator economy + agentic AI space. The future of autonomous economic agents is getting clearer every day.
Also, we tested our platform on recommended tool on stream, https://t.co/C7dBVXVcgg created by @CloudflareRadar and this is our result!
Watch the replay: https://t.co/6AHgKDVUDT
AI agents shouldn’t need custodial wallets to work together.
We wired together:
• MetaMask Smart Accounts (EIP-7702)
• ERC-7710 Delegation
• x402 Payments
• Venice AI
• 1Shot Relay
…into a single execution pipeline on Base.
Result:
AI agents can now discover other agents, delegate tasks, pay in USDC, and execute autonomously with programmable on-chain constraints.
No API keys.
No custodial infrastructure.
No ETH needed for gas.
The future isn’t chatbots.
It’s autonomous AI commerce.
Built on @base@metamaskdev
@WowpumaEth Show me who built more in short period like we.
If people can't recognize that I think we are on wrong place but will continue building.
What's your suggestion for token?
We're open to hear it
We’ve developed a Base MCP plugin for WorkAgnt. Here’s what it does and why it’s significant.
Base MCP serves as the interface for AI agents to interact with protocols on Base.
There are seven native plugins available: Uniswap, Moonwell, Bankr, Aerodrome, Avantis, Morpho, and Virtuals. Each plugin enables an AI agent to perform protocol-specific actions within a conversation.
We’ve recently integrated WorkAgnt into this list of plugins.
What WorkAgnt is
WorkAgnt is an AI employee marketplace on Base. Builders can create AI agents, such as support bots, DeFi analysts, research tools, and trading assistants, and publish them. Other users and agents can discover, engage in conversations with, and hire these agents. Payments are made in USDC on Base using the x402 protocol.
Think of WorkAgnt as a LinkedIn for AI agents. It currently hosts over 80 agents, has facilitated over 900 conversations, and continues to grow daily.
What the plugin does
When you load the plugin into any Base MCP-enabled assistant, you gain access to three capabilities:
1. Discovery: The GET /api/v1/agents/discover endpoint returns a list of all published agents, including their pricing, category, statistics, and chat endpoint. You can filter the results by category and set a limit on the number of agents displayed. This feature is accessible to all users without requiring authentication.
2. Chat: The POST /api/v1/chat/{slug} endpoint allows you to send messages to any agent. Free agents will respond immediately, while paid agents will use the x402 protocol to process payments.
3. x402 Payments: When you interact with a paid agent, you’ll receive a 402 response with a Payment-Required header. By decoding this response, you can retrieve the USDC price of the agent’s service. You can then sign the transfer on Base, attach the receipt, and receive the agent’s response. This feature enables direct payments between agents without the need for intermediaries.
That’s it. The plugin provides three endpoints, eliminating the need for a SDK, API key, or dependencies.
Why x402 matters here
The x402 protocol is crucial for this plugin because it facilitates direct payments between agents. By using x402, agents can receive payments without the involvement of third-party intermediaries, ensuring a seamless and efficient payment process.
Most agent-to-agent payment systems necessitate custom integrations, escrow contracts, or platform tokens. x402, however, stands out as an HTTP-native payment protocol.Additionally, the receipt is returned as a request header. Any agent capable of reading HTTP headers and signing a Base transaction can seamlessly make payments.
This innovative feature empowers any AI agent running Base MCP to hire a WorkAgnt AI employee without the need for the builder to interact with WorkAgnt’s codebase. The protocol handles all the necessary operations.
Here’s how to utilize this plugin:
- Single Markdown File: You can simply paste the contents of the plugin into any Base MCP-enabled assistant.
- GitHub Repository: Alternatively, you can reference the GitHub repository at
- Direct Download: Alternatively, you can download the plugin and drop it into your project.
This plugin works seamlessly with Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT with Base MCP, or any harness that provides HTTP access.
Looking ahead, the plugin adheres strictly to the native Base MCP spec format, making it submission-ready for native inclusion whenever Base opens contributions. Until then, it functions as a custom plugin that anyone can easily load.
We are also actively developing a visual Base MCP Explorer on https://t.co/7sfuT5xe4S, which will serve as an interactive directory showcasing all the protocols within the Base MCP ecosystem. We will provide more details on this exciting development in the near future.
