Three parts, one orbit.
Tap a node. Hooks are the trigger, agents are the brain, $AURA is the fuel and the bond.
Polling off-chain
Reacts a block or more after the event and loses to faster bots.
Hot wallet keys
No spending limit. One bad prompt or leaked key drains the wallet.
No proof
Nobody can check what the agent saw, decided, or why.
Always-on servers
Servers and RPC calls around the clock, even when nothing happens.
Rebuilt every time
Each team rebuilds the same trigger, wallet and monitoring plumbing.
Pick a job. Read the Aura.
Six beats, one block to start.
The hook and condition run inside the triggering transaction, so an unneeded run costs almost nothing. Funds move only after the policy check.
Contract event
A swap, deposit or loan update happens on-chain.
Aura Hook fires
Runs only if its condition is met, in the same block.
Agent decides
A staked operator runs the AI model for this Aura.
Policy check
Smart account enforces caps, contracts and tokens.
Action executes
Session key signs only what the policy allows.
Receipt
Logged on-chain with a 24-hour challenge window.
splits four ways
1B supply. Zero minting.
About 17% (170M) circulates at TGE; the rest unlocks over six years. Hover a slice.
Gas for automation
Every workflow run pays its fee in $AURA.
Operator bond
Stake to receive work; faulty runs get slashed.
Creator royalties
Hook and template builders earn 20% of each run.
Governance
Staked $AURA votes on fees, burn and treasury.
Priority
Stakers pay lower fees and jump the queue.
Ecosystem and agent rewards, linear over 72 months.
yearly fees in $AURA. Above that, usage removes more than rewards add.
Investor unlocks begin at 6; team and advisor cliffs end at 12 (≈17% → 34% circulating).
Four worlds, three gates.
Each phase opens only after its gate is passed, not on a calendar. Dates are announced per phase.

Rules in code, not in trust.
On-chain policies
Agents act only through a session key scoped to your policy. A prompt injection cannot exceed the spend cap.
Execution receipts
Trigger, inputs hash, decision and result are written on-chain, with a 24-hour challenge window.
Slashing
Break a policy or post a false receipt and lose stake, split between the challenger and the burn.
Hook allowlist
New hooks are reviewed before attaching to major pools; the DAO can pause a misbehaving hook.
Audits & bounty
Independent audits before mainnet, plus a public bug bounty paid in $AURA.
Stake caps
Caps per operator and top-holder tracking after each unlock cliff limit concentration.
0.5% of supply to submit a proposal.
Of circulating supply must take part.
Passed proposals run after the delay.

Good questions.
What is an “Aura”?
A workflow with four parts: a trigger (the hook it listens to), a condition (a cheap on-chain check), an agent (the AI model run by a staked operator) and a policy (hard limits enforced by your smart account).
Can an agent drain my wallet?
No. Agents never hold your master key. They act through session keys bound to your policy: max spend per run, allowed contracts and tokens, and a daily cap.
Is the $AURA supply fixed?
Yes. 1,000,000,000 $AURA with no minting function after deployment, and 20% of every workflow fee is burned permanently.
Can I pay fees in ETH or stablecoins?
Yes. The fee is swapped into $AURA through a protocol hook before it is distributed to operators, creators, the burn and the DAO.
When is the TGE?
TGE and DEX liquidity belong to Phase 2 (Launch), which opens after the audits gate is passed. Dates will be announced on X.
