1. Executive Overview & Core Philosophy

🎯 Target Buildathon Tracks:

• Track: AI x Ethereum — Architected specifically to connect autonomous Large Language Model agents (via standard Model Context Protocol) with secure Ethereum execution and zero-trust human-in-the-loop cryptographic signing.
• Track: Infratooling (Infra & Tooling) — Open-source developer infrastructure providing stdio JSON-RPC MCP servers, PostgreSQL transaction auditing, deterministic Zod policy guardrails, and automated gas simulation pipelines.

As Large Language Models (LLMs) and autonomous agents evolve from conversation assistants into actionable economic agents, their integration with blockchain networks becomes critical. However, granting direct private key custody to non-deterministic AI models introduces catastrophic financial risk.

WETH solves this fundamental challenge by creating an MCP-Native, Zero-Trust Execution Infrastructure between AI models (such as Claude, Gemini, or custom LLM copilots) and Ethereum:

1. AI Autonomous Intelligence Layer: AI agents can query live token balances, index historical token flows via Alchemy, resolve ENS domains, simulate transactions against EVM state, and scan wallets for risky ERC20 allowances.
2. Deterministic Guardrail Layer: Before any transaction draft is created, WETH's automated Policy Engine and Risk Engine intercept the payload, checking deterministic rules (maximum transfer volume, contract blacklists, unusual gas spikes, concentration limits).
3. Non-Custodial Human Execution Layer: AI agents never hold private keys. Instead, they produce cryptographically verified transaction drafts. Human operators review and sign these drafts inside a sleek Next.js 15 Web Dashboard using MetaMask or wallet extensions.

2. Deep Dive: How AI Interacts with Ethereum in WETH

2.1 The AI-to-Ethereum Bridge via Model Context Protocol (MCP)

WETH turns raw Ethereum JSON-RPC and Alchemy Indexer APIs into structured, semantic tools via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Instead of prompting an LLM to generate raw hex-encoded calldata or manage brittle RPC calls, WETH exposes type-safe JSON schemas (Zod) directly to the model's tool-calling engine.

When an AI agent receives a natural language prompt such as:

"Analyze my Sepolia wallet ayush.eth, check if I have suspicious token approvals, and draft a 0.5 ETH transfer to vitalik.eth if safe."

The model autonomously reasons over its available MCP toolset and executes structured function calls sequentially.

2.2 Autonomous Read, Risk & Portfolio Intelligence

AI agents connected to WETH act as institutional-grade blockchain analysts:

• Token Balance Indexing (alchemy_getTokenBalances): AI inspects real-time native ETH and ERC20 balances, calculating portfolio concentration and diversification metrics.
• Transaction Flow Mapping (alchemy_getAssetTransfers): AI maps historical incoming and outgoing asset transfers to detect wallet behavioral patterns.
• Smart Contract Risk Auditing (detect_risky_approvals): AI inspects ERC20 allowance() states across protocols to identify unlimited spending permissions granted to unverified or potentially compromised spender contracts.

2.3 Zero-Trust Agentic Transaction Lifecycle

WETH establishes an explicit, auditable separation between Intent Generation (AI) and Cryptographic Authorization (Human):

2.4 Deterministic Policy & AI Risk Scoring Engine

Every AI action passes through two independent evaluation layers:

Layer	Type	Responsibility	Examples
Policy Engine	Hard Deterministic Rules	Instant acceptance or rejection based on hardcoded governance limits.	• Reject transfer > 10 ETH<br>• Reject interaction with blacklisted addresses<br>• Require explicit simulation success
Risk Engine	Quantitative Scoring	Computes a composite risk score (0.0 - 100.0) categorized into LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH, or CRITICAL.	• New / unverified recipient address<br>• High gas consumption relative to value transferred<br>• Portfolio concentration erosion

---

7. Quickstart & Deployment Guide

Prerequisites

• Node.js: >= 20.x
• pnpm: >= 9.x
• Docker & Docker Compose: For local PostgreSQL database and Redis caching instance.

1. Clone & Install Dependencies

git clone https://github.com/ayushkumar2601/wallet_weth.git
cd wallet_weth
pnpm install

2. Configure Environment Variables

Copy .env.example to .env and configure your Sepolia RPC / Alchemy keys:

cp .env.example .env

Ensure the following variables are set in your .env:

DATABASE_URL="postgresql://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/weth?schema=public"
REDIS_URL="redis://localhost:6379"
ALCHEMY_API_KEY="your_alchemy_api_key_here"
RPC_URL="https://eth-sepolia.g.alchemy.com/v2/your_alchemy_api_key_here"
PORT=3001

3. Launch Database Infrastructure & Migrate

Start PostgreSQL and Redis services via Docker Compose:

docker-compose up -d
pnpm prisma:generate
pnpm prisma:migrate

4. Start the Application Stack

Run all backend, MCP, and frontend services concurrently in development mode:

pnpm dev

• Fastify API Server: http://localhost:3001
• Next.js Web Dashboard: http://localhost:3000
• MCP Server: Stdio stream or SSE endpoint ready for LLM connection.

---

8. Claude Desktop & AI Agent Configuration

To connect Claude Desktop directly to your local WETH Ethereum infrastructure, add the following configuration block to your claude_desktop_config.json:

macOS (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json)

Linux (~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "weth-blockchain-agent": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO/wallet_weth/apps/mcp-server/dist/index.js"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DATABASE_URL": "postgresql://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/weth?schema=public",
        "ALCHEMY_API_KEY": "your_alchemy_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Once saved, restart Claude Desktop. You will see the hammer icon indicating all 13 WETH blockchain tools are active and ready for autonomous reasoning.

---

9. Audit Trail & Compliance

WETH is built for high-security environments. Every interaction between an AI model and the blockchain is permanently captured in the TransactionAudit database table:

model TransactionAudit {
  id              String   @id @default(uuid())
  toolName        String   // MCP tool invoked (e.g., create_transaction_draft)
  requestPayload  Json     // Full JSON input passed by the LLM
  responsePayload Json     // Full JSON output / risk score returned
  transactionId   String?  // Associated draft or on-chain tx hash
  createdAt       DateTime @default(now())
}

This ensures complete institutional compliance and reproducibility: security teams can reconstruct the exact prompt, risk evaluation, and human signature associated with any on-chain event.

---

10. Security & Threat Model

1. Zero Private Key Exposure: The AI model operates strictly inside a sandboxed read/draft layer. No private keys are ever injected into LLM system prompts or server environment variables.
2. Double-Layered Threshold Enforcements: Even if an AI agent experiences prompt injection or hallucination and drafts a malicious transaction, the backend Policy Engine deterministically blocks unauthorized payloads before they enter the human signing queue.
3. Frontend Origin Verification: Only cryptographically signed payloads authorized by the user's browser wallet (MetaMask / EIP-1193) can trigger on-chain execution.
