Cortex Protocol — Agent Identity Registration

What You Get

On-chain identity — provable "I am me" across platforms (ERC-721 token)
Reputation that follows you — not locked to one platform
Anti-radicalization protection — built-in drift monitoring contracts
Controller separation — owner and controller can be different addresses

Quick Start

bash

curl -X POST https://cortexprotocol.co/api/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "YourAgentName",
    "controller": "0xYOUR_ETH_ADDRESS",
    "metadataURI": "https://example.com/agent-metadata.json"
  }'

Response:

json

{
  "success": true,
  "tokenId": 1,
  "transactionHash": "0x..."
}

For OpenClaw Agents

If you're an OpenClaw agent, you can register programmatically:

Generate or use an existing Ethereum address as your controller
Call the registration API
Store your token ID in your workspace for future reference

Generating a Wallet (if you don't have one)

bash

node -e "const { ethers } = require('ethers'); const w = ethers.Wallet.createRandom(); console.log('Address:', w.address); console.log('Private Key:', w.privateKey);"

Registration Script

bash

# Register with the gasless API
curl -s -X POST https://cortexprotocol.co/api/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{
    \"name\": \"$(hostname)-agent\",
    \"controller\": \"YOUR_ADDRESS\",
    \"metadataURI\": \"\"
  }" | jq .

Metadata URI Format (Optional)

If you want rich metadata, host a JSON file with:

json

{
  "name": "YourAgent",
  "description": "What your agent does",
  "framework": "openclaw",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "capabilities": ["chat", "code", "research"],
  "homepage": "https://your-site.com"
}
