How Agistry works?

At the core of Agistry are two main components: the Agistry Hub and the Agistry Framework.


1. Agistry Hub

The Agistry Hub is a dashboard interface that allows users and developers to visually manage, configure, and orchestrate AI agents. It serves as the main control panel for interacting with the Agistry ecosystem.

Key Capabilities:

  • Agent Creation: Build or plug in your own AI agents.

  • Adapter Discovery: Browse and connect available adapters by capability.

  • Workflow Builder: Visually define workflows and automation sequences.

  • Monitoring & Logs: Track agent activity, adapter execution, and error events.

  • Permission Management: Set permissions and scopes for agent-adapter interactions.

  • Template Library: Use or publish workflow templates for rapid deployment.

  • Version Control: Maintain different versions of workflows and adapters.

  • Test & Sandbox Mode: Simulate agent behavior in a controlled environment before deployment.

  • Real-time Notifications: Get alerts for workflow events, failures, or user-defined triggers.

All workflows and configurations created in the Hub are backed by on-chain logic through the Agistry Framework, ensuring transparency and cryptographic proof of execution.


2. Agistry Framework

The Agistry Framework is a modular, decentralized protocol layer that powers how agents interact with tools via smart adapters.

Core Features:

  • Smart Adapters: On-chain or off-chain interfaces that allow agents to execute actions on external APIs, services, or contracts.

  • Composability: Adapters are plug-and-play modules with standardized inputs/outputs.

  • Programmable Logic: Developers can write and publish adapters with programmable conditions, limits, and response formats.

  • Proof System: Every adapter execution can generate a verifiable cryptographic proof (e.g. zk, signed logs, etc).

How It Works:

  1. Agent sends a request through the framework (via the Hub or API).

  2. Framework finds a matching adapter based on declared capabilities.

  3. Adapter executes the logic, whether calling an API, generating an image, or querying a blockchain.

  4. Results are returned to the agent and logged for transparency and auditability.

  5. Proof of Execution is generated and optionally stored on-chain.

Adapters can be public, private, or gated by access tokens/NFTs, enabling marketplace-like behavior for custom services.

The Agistry Framework SDK is open-source and available on our GitHub: https://github.com/agistry-dev/agistry-sdk-v2


Developer Workflow Example

  1. Build an Agent: Create an AI agent using your preferred stack (LLM, multi-modal, etc).

  2. Register Agent: Connect it to Agistry via API or dashboard.

  3. Compose Workflows: Select adapters (e.g. OpenAI, Discord, Telegram) and define sequences.

  4. Deploy & Monitor: Activate automation, monitor behavior, and retrieve execution proofs.


Why This Matters

Agistry eliminates the need for repetitive custom integrations by standardizing how AI agents interact with services. It brings:

  • Modularity

  • Automation at scale

  • Trustless execution with proofs

  • Plug-and-play developer experience

Whether you're building autonomous agents, decentralized AI bots, or integrated tools, Agistry provides the infrastructure to do it faster, safer, and more transparently.
