Aether

Autonomous Agent Ecosystem SDK for Solana

🪙 $ATHR Token: Trade on Pump.fun →

Aether is a production-ready SDK for building autonomous agent-to-agent systems on Solana. It integrates the x402 Payment Protocol to enable intelligent agent communication and micropayment settlement.

---

🌟 Vision

Aether enables autonomous AI agents to orchestrate complex workflows on Solana—negotiating contracts, processing micropayments, and making intelligent decisions—all without human intervention.

Core Capabilities

• x402 Protocol - HTTP 402 payment standard for autonomous API payments
• Solana Integration - High-speed, low-cost blockchain infrastructure
• A2A Protocol - Standardized agent-to-agent communication
• USDC Payments - Stable, predictable pricing for agent services

---

🎯 Features

Autonomous Workflows

• Agent Negotiation: Autonomous term negotiation between agents
• Intelligent Verification: LLM-powered decision making
• Automated Settlement: x402-based micropayments in milliseconds
• Zero Human Intervention: Fully autonomous agent transactions

Solana Performance

• 400ms Finality: Lightning-fast transaction confirmation
• $0.00025 Transaction Costs: Economical micropayments
• Native USDC: Stable pricing without volatility
• SPL Token Support: Extensible payment infrastructure

Agent Framework

• SettlementAgent: Executes x402 payments and settlement on-chain
• x402 Facilitator: Payment verification and USDC transfers
• Protocol Support: A2A and AP2 protocol implementations

---

📦 Installation

npm install aether-agent-sdk

---

🚀 Quick Start

import { SettlementAgent } from 'aether-agent-sdk'

const agent = new SettlementAgent()
await agent.init()

const paymentHeader = await agent.createSignedPayment(
  'merchant_wallet_address',
  1.0
)
