An autonomous AI research agent that cites AND pays its sources: grant one scoped MetaMask permission, it researches with Venice and splits USDC to every cited author — on-chain, non custodial

描述
Sebutkan ("cite it", in Indonesian) is an autonomous AI research agent that does what no AI tool does today: it pays the human authors it cites.
You grant ONE scoped MetaMask Advanced Permission (ERC-7715) — a periodic USDC budget the agent can never exceed; funds stay in your wallet. The agent searches OpenAlex's 250M-paper index, unlocks the top paper via an x402 micropayment, and reasons over it with Venice AI (private + uncensored). It runs as a real 5-agent mesh — a Planner decomposes the question, parallel Readers answer sub-questions, a Citation-Matcher (Venice embeddings) computes relevance-weighted payouts, and a Fact-checker can reject a weak answer and force a revision. Each agent is a real on-chain principal (ERC-8004) that redelegates a strictly narrower budget (ERC-7710) and earns reputation.
When the run finishes, attestAndSplit records the citation AND pays each cited author their USDC share in a single on-chain transaction — no relayer fee, no double-pay. Authors without a wallet yet have their share escrowed; they later prove their ORCID (OAuth) and bind their wallet to withdraw, plus a citation-loyalty yield. Payouts can also relay gaslessly via the 1Shot Permissionless Relayer (EIP-7702, gas paid in USDC) — proven end-to-end on Base mainnet.
It flips the core injustice of AI: systems scrape human knowledge and pay creators nothing. Sebutkan makes every citation a real payment. Five Venice endpoints (chat, web search, embeddings, image, TTS) power the brain, the relevance ranking, the receipt art, and the spoken briefing. No mocks in the critical path; 112 tests (37 Foundry + 75 Vitest) green.on-chain principal (ERC-8004) that redelegates a strictly narrower budget (ERC-7710) and earns reputation.

本次黑客松进展
Built during the hackathon by porting our prior research-agent concept onto the MetaMask Smart Accounts Kit and wiring it fully on-chain:
- ERC-7715 grant flow in the main path (Flask), budget follows the expiry, optional Kutip-style upfront lock.
- Real A2A coordination: Researcher → redelegated Planner / parallel Readers / Citation-Matcher / Fact-checker / Summarizer (ERC-7710), with a reject-and-revise loop and ERC-8004 on-chain reputation.
- Four settlement rails (direct attestAndSplit, 1Shot gasless relay, escrow→ORCID claim, auto-pay); anti-double-pay enforced on-chain.
- 1Shot 7710 + 7702 relay executed on Base mainnet (gas in USDC); Ed25519 webhook receiver.
- Five Venice endpoints; x402 paper unlock verified on-chain + an x402 7710 facilitator.
- ORCID OAuth → on-chain wallet binding; UnclaimedEscrow + 12% citation-loyalty yield.
- Six contracts deployed on Sepolia, seeded with real varied on-chain attestations.
- Anime-styled landing (Venice-generated art), in-app interactive guided tours, self-narrating pitch deck. 112 tests green.
融资状态
Not currently fundraising. Built as an open-source (MIT) hackathon project. Open to grants/support to take it to mainnet and onboard real publishers and authors.
