Just saw the group chatting about that upgrade for a certain public chain. Before the hard fork, everyone was guessing whether the ecosystem would migrate away—but the on-chain Agents didn’t seem to panic at all. It just did the swap swap, stake staking. Honestly, I’m pretty impressed with these AI Agents right now, but if you want to completely let go and not worry at all? That’s still a bit unsettling.



Yesterday I tried a brand-new Agent contract interaction, and it ended up looping on its own, continuously adjusting the route—so the slippage kept compounding and nearly drained my wallet. In the end, I still had to manually interrupt it, then reset a few parameters. To put it plainly, many on-chain steps still need a human to step in as a backstop—not because the technology isn’t good, but because things like timing and context are still beyond what the Agent can fully understand.

Especially for things involving governance voting, pausing cross-chain bridges, and even the window periods before and after a public chain’s hard fork—the Agent’s job is basically mechanical execution. But whether to pause a strategy at a certain time, whether to switch routing pools—those decisions still have to be made by people. What I learned wasn’t a trick. It was this: when it’s time for the machine to run, don’t be lazy; and when it’s your call to make, don’t pass the blame.
