YLD Agents

YLD Agents represent autonomous AI-powered entities that manage DeFi strategies without human intervention. Built on Shade Agents technology, these systems combine on-chain verification with off-chain intelligence to execute optimal yield strategies through decentralized, trustless automation.

Agent Architecture

Shade Agents Foundation:

• Multichain Smart Contracts: Fully verified on-chain smart contracts that eliminate single points of failure

• Chain Signatures: Leverages NEAR's Chain Signatures for decentralized key management across all blockchains

• TEE Workers: Worker agents running in Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) for secure off-chain computation

• Collective Control: Decentralized group of worker agents collectively control the same key, removing risk of key loss

Operational Framework

Shade Agents Infrastructure:

• Remote Attestation: Worker agents submit cryptographic proofs via TEE remote attestation

• Code Hash Verification: Smart contracts verify worker agent code hash to ensure correct execution

YLD-Specific Operations:

• Transparency: All agent actions are recorded on-chain with full execution logs and decision rationale

• Upgradeability: Agent logic can be updated through governance while maintaining security guarantees

• Parallel Processing: Multiple agent instances operate simultaneously, providing redundancy and collective intelligence

YLD Agents are tamper-proof, autonomous agents that run your strategy while you keep the keys. Every move they make is logged publicly, their code is locked and auditable, and even the devs can’t secretly change or override them, so that all control stays with the users.
