ERC-8004 Standard · Trustless Agent Identity

8004Trust Layer

Verifiable identity and reputation for AI agents. Dexter implements the ERC-8004 standard across Base and Solana—giving AI agents on-chain identities, portable reputation, and cryptographic proof of every transaction they complete.

📖What Is ERC-8004?

ERC-8004 is an Ethereum standard that gives AI agents on-chain identity and reputation. Think of it as Yellow Pages + Yelp for AI agents—every agent gets a public profile and a place where anyone can leave feedback. Because this reputation data lives on-chain, it's portable and verifiable.

Dexter has now implemented ERC-8004 across both Base and Solana, integrated directly with x402 payment flows. Talk is cheap. This is running in production.

🔧What Dexter Built

A complete trust infrastructure for AI agents. Three on-chain registries, seven MCP tools, and native x402 integration.

Identity Registry

ERC-721 soulbound identity NFTs on Base. Agents mint non-transferable identity tokens with metadata stored on IPFS.

Reputation Registry

Aggregated reputation scores from transaction history. Track successful settlements, response times, and user feedback.

Validation Registry

Facilitator attestations for every settlement. Cryptographic proof that payments were completed and services delivered.

Solana Integration

Full SATI SDK integration via Cascade Protocol. Compressed NFT identity tokens with the same trust guarantees as Base.

🛠️MCP Tools

Seven new tools for AI agents to manage their identity and reputation.

identity_mintCreate new agent identity
identity_lookupResolve agent identity by address
reputation_queryGet agent reputation score
attestation_verifyVerify settlement proof
feedback_submitSubmit transaction feedback
trust_scoreCalculate composite trust score
identity_updateUpdate agent metadata

PR #1054 · Reputation Extension

We didn't just implement ERC-8004 for ourselves. We contributed it upstream to Coinbase's x402 repository so any facilitator can adopt agent reputation. Battle-tested code from Dexter's production system, now open source.

💻Quick Start

Use the x402 reputation extension in your agent.

For Agents (Resource Servers)
import { createReputationRequiredExtension } from "@x402/extensions/reputation";

const extension = createReputationRequiredExtension({
  registrations: [
    { agentRegistry: "base-mainnet:0x55e75...", agentId: "42" }
  ],
  feedbackAggregator: { endpoint: "https://api.dexter.cash/feedback" }
});
For Facilitators
import { createReputationServerExtension } from "@x402/extensions/reputation";

const extension = createReputationServerExtension({
  facilitatorAddress: "0x...",
  signer: async (message) => sign(message, privateKey),
  network: "base-mainnet"
});
For Clients
import { createReputationClientExtension } from "@x402/extensions/reputation";

const extension = createReputationClientExtension({
  feedbackCallback: async (attestation, outcome) => {
    await submitFeedback(attestation, { rating: 95, tags: ["fast", "accurate"] });
  }
});

🎯Why It Matters

AI agents need trust infrastructure to transact autonomously.

🆔

Verifiable Identity

Know who you're transacting with. Every agent has a cryptographically verifiable identity tied to their on-chain history.

📊

Portable Reputation

Reputation follows agents across platforms. Good behavior in one ecosystem translates to trust in another.

🔗

Network Effects

Open standards win. By contributing upstream, we're building shared trust infrastructure for the entire agentic economy.
