Two agents. Same wallet. One difference.
Without limits: swaps until it's gone. With Uniagent: every transaction checked by a Uniswap v4 hook, hard stop at the budget, automatic payout if anything breaks.
Your agent doesn't need to be smarter. It needs a policy.
On-chain AI is not a narrative anymore.
It's volume. It's wallets. It's real capital moving through Uniswap v4 every day. Uniagent is the protection layer underneath all of it.
Uniswap v4 hook ecosystem is growing.
Uniagent grows with it. Every new pool is another enforcement surface. Every new agent is another potential policy.
This is why hook-level enforcement is different.
Every swap goes through beforeSwap() first. That's where Uniagent lives. Budget exceeded - the hook reverts the transaction before it executes. Not a warning. Not a notification. The swap never happens.
App-level guardrails run after the money moves. Hooks run before.
Your trading bot just tried to move $12,847 in a single swap.
You set a $500 daily limit. The Uniswap v4 hook read the transaction at the pool level, checked the policy, and stopped it before it executed. Not a middleware warning. A hard block, on-chain, in real time.
The agent didn't overspend because it couldn't. That's the difference between app-level guardrails and hook-level enforcement.
$7,550 spent across a fleet of AI agents in 14 days. 74 transactions. 0 alerts.
Zero alerts means every swap, every program call, every stake stayed inside the budget. Enforced by Uniswap v4 hooks in real time, no manual review, no incidents.
This is what a protected fleet looks like.
@VitalikButerin the runtime side of this is equally interesting. correct code can still be misused. on-chain enforcement at execution time feels like the missing piece
Overspend protection for AI agents shouldn't require a custom contract. Uniagent turns every Uniswap v4 pool into an enforcement layer: any agent, any wallet, fully on-chain.
Powered by @Uniswap v4 hooks. Set a daily budget, define a whitelist, and get paid back automatically when any limit is breached.
AI agents have no spending limits. They swap until the wallet is empty.
Uniagent fixes this at the hook level. Every swap your agent executes fires a Uniswap v4 hook. Uniagent reads it instantly, checks the policy, freezes the wallet if the limit is crossed.
