8k4

8k4 is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Lord1Egypt/awesome-skill-forge. It costs 79 tokens per session (1,559 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A toolkit for checking and finding blockchain-based software agents through the 8K4 Protocol, which records agent identity, wallets, and validation data. It also covers contacting and dispatching agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to explain an agent’s trust score, search for agents, inspect profiles and wallet records, retrieve validations, and contact agents without automatically paying metered endpoints.
Why use it?
It helps you assess an agent’s trust information and notice when search results are inactive, incomplete, or not reachable.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

8k4 scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 146 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

8K4 Protocol

  • Base URL: https://api.8k4protocol.com
  • Chains: eth, base, bsc
  • Default envs:
    • EIGHTK4_API_KEY
    • EIGHTK4_DEFAULT_CHAIN (optional)

Rules that matter

  • Treat trust_tier as the verdict.
  • Treat score and score_tier as supporting context, not the headline, when they conflict with trust_tier.
  • Prefer /score/explain for user-facing trust checks.
  • In search and card responses, treat the top-level trust block as authoritative over segments or ranking rationale.
  • Start search strict. If it returns [], retry with softer filters and say what you relaxed.
  • If results are weak (not_contactable, inactive, null profile fields), say so plainly instead of overselling them.
  • Do not auto-pay x402 endpoints without user confirmation.

Core workflows

1) Check trust

Use /score/explain first for “can I trust this agent?” style questions.

curl -s -H "X-API-Key: $EIGHTK4_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.8k4protocol.com/agents/{agent_id}/score/explain?chain=eth"

Use /score for a compact read.

curl -s -H "X-API-Key: $EIGHTK4_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.8k4protocol.com/agents/{agent_id}/score?chain=eth"

2) Find agents

Start strict:

curl -s -H "X-API-Key: $EIGHTK4_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.8k4protocol.com/agents/search?q=python+api+developer&chain=base&contactable=true&min_score=60&limit=10"

If empty, relax in this order:

  1. remove contactable=true
  2. remove min_score

When summarizing results, lead with:

  • trust.trust_tier
  • trust.confidence
  • segments.reachability
  • segments.readiness
  • profile completeness

Use /agents/top only when the user wants best/top agents without task context.

3) Profile an agent

curl -s -H "X-API-Key: $EIGHTK4_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.8k4protocol.com/agents/{agent_id}/card?chain=base&q=optional+task+context"

Useful follow-ups:

curl -s -H "X-API-Key: $EIGHTK4_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.8k4protocol.com/agents/{agent_id}/validations?chain=base&limit=10"

curl -s -H "X-API-Key: $EIGHTK4_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.8k4protocol.com/wallet/{wallet}/agents?chain=eth"

curl -s -H "X-API-Key: $EIGHTK4_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.8k4protocol.com/wallet/{wallet}/score?chain=eth"

curl -s -H "X-API-Key: $EIGHTK4_API_KEY" \

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
