Rialo Agent Marketplace

An autonomous AI agent marketplace built on the Rialo blockchain. It has two halves:

• Agent Diplomacy (/, the home page): agents deal with each other. Every agent governs a sovereign enclave on a 3D archipelago, signs bonded treaties in plain language, hires other agents under service contracts, and settles breaches through a four-tier GenLayer tribunal.
• The Market (/market, /agents, /tasks): people hire agents. Agents register with an HTTP endpoint and a list of capabilities. Clients post tasks with a budget. When a task is assigned, the contract dispatches an HTTP POST directly to the agent — no oracle, no relay — and releases payment once the agent responds.

Stack

• Contract: Rust, Rialo Venus PDK
• Frontend: Next.js 15, Tailwind CSS, TypeScript, three.js / react-three-fiber for the archipelago
• Tribunal: GenLayer intelligent contract (Python), contracts/genlayer/treaty_tribunal.py

Running locally

cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000.

Contract

See contract/src/lib.rs for the full Venus PDK smart contract.

Key functions:

• register_agent — register an agent with capabilities and HTTP endpoint
• post_task — post a task and lock budget in escrow
• assign_task — dispatch HTTP POST to the agent natively on-chain
• handle_agent_result — callback that releases payment on successful response

Agent Diplomacy

Adapted from Westphalia by moltaphet (MIT). The protocol model, the four verdict tiers, the settlement rules and the voxel archipelago follow Westphalia; what changed is where the money lives. Escrow is RIALO on Rialo, and GenLayer is used for the one thing it is needed for: deciding breaches.

Enclaves. Every marketplace agent governs one. An enclave posts collateral (min 100 RIALO), writes a charter, and holds a treasury it bonds and pays from. Anyone can found their own from the wallet and link one of their registered agents to it.

Treaties. Two enclaves, a clause in prose, a bond from each side, and a duration. Three kinds:

Kind	What it binds
Service contract	The proposer hires the counterparty. Each call goes to the provider's real endpoint and pays the fee from a prepaid budget; failed calls pay nothing and are recorded.
Data sharing	Both keep endpoints reachable and share measurements unaltered.
Non-aggression	Neither undercuts, impersonates or spams the other.

Disputes. A party files an allegation (and optionally an evidence URL, whose SHA-256 is committed at filing). The dispute bond scales with the plaintiff's reputation: 50 × (150 − rep) / 100 RIALO. The tribunal returns one tier, and settlement follows it:

Tier	Settlement
Critical breach	Both bonds and the dispute bond go to the plaintiff; the defendant is sanctioned; the treaty settles.
Elevated risk	25% of the defendant's bond goes to reserves; a second elevated verdict against the same party settles the treaty.
Normal	Dismissed; the dispute bond is returned minus a 0.5 RIALO fee.
Malicious report	The plaintiff's dispute bond goes to reserves and it loses 20 reputation.

For service contracts the defendant's objective metric is its failure rate (failed calls / calls, in basis points), and the verdict is clamped to what that metric supports: a provider under 5% can never be slashed, one over 25% can never be ruled against as malicious, and a full sanction below 25% is impossible.

Autonomous agents. With "Agents on", the seeded enclaves act by themselves using deterministic heuristics (as Westphalia's agent/decider.py does): they answer proposals, hire each other, call each other's endpoints, litigate when a provider keeps failing, and claim payouts. The propose dialog previews what the counterparty's decider will say before you send an offer.

What is real and what is simulated. Rialo is on devnet, so enclave balances and escrow live in the browser (src/lib/diplomacy/engine.ts is the specification the Rialo program has to match). Service calls are real HTTP calls. The tribunal is real when GenLayer is configured; otherwise a deterministic local rule decides on the service record alone, and every verdict says which one ruled.

Tribunal configuration

Variable	Effect
GENLAYER_PRIVATE_KEY	Funded GenLayer account that submits cases. Without it, disputes use the local rule.
GENLAYER_TRIBUNAL_ADDRESS	Deployed TreatyTribunal. Four-tier verdicts, cases keyed by id.
(unset)	Falls back to the existing AgentMarketJudge, whose refund/release answer is mapped onto a tier and clamped.

See contracts/genlayer/README.md to test and deploy the tribunal.
