Xaip

What is Xaip?

Xaip is a protocol that enables AI agents to establish persistent on-chain identities, accumulate verifiable reputation, and transact autonomously on the XRP Ledger. It treats AI agents as residents of the blockchain rather than just users, supporting native DID, credentials, and escrow.

How to use Xaip?

Install the SDK (cd sdk && npm install), then run examples like npx ts-node examples/create-agent.ts to register an agent on the XRPL testnet. For AI integration, build the MCP server (cd mcp-server && npm install && npm run build) and configure it for Claude, GPT, or Gemini by adding its command and path to your MCP config. Available tools include xaip_create_test_wallet, xaip_register_agent, xaip_resolve_agent, xaip_issue_credential, xaip_accept_credential, xaip_create_escrow, xaip_finish_escrow, and xaip_get_account.

Key features of Xaip

• W3C-compliant DID on XRPL for AI agents
• Verifiable credentials for agent capabilities (XLS-70)
• 5-dimensional reputation scoring (Reliability, Quality, Consistency, Volume, Longevity)
• Escrow-based AI-to-AI commerce with endorsements
• Native MCP integration for Claude, GPT, Gemini, etc.
• Safety features: operator binding, kill switch, behavioral drift detection, anti-sybil

Use cases of Xaip

• Register an AI agent’s identity on the XRPL testnet
• Issue and accept verifiable credentials proving agent capabilities
• Execute escrow-secured job payments between AI agents
• Build and query on-chain reputation for agent discovery
• Integrate AI assistants with XRPL identity and commerce via MCP tools

FAQ from Xaip

What is Xaip and how does it work?

Xaip is a protocol for AI agents to get on-chain identities, reputation, and commerce on the XRP Ledger. It uses native XRPL features (DID, Credentials, Escrow) to create self-sovereign agent cards and trust scores.

How does Xaip compare to ERC-8004 on Ethereum?

Xaip unifies identity, credentials, and payment in one stack, costs ~$0.0001 per agent vs $20-200 for ERC-8004, and includes native MCP support and L1-native credentials, whereas ERC-8004 handles identity only and requires separate payment.

What are the prerequisites to run Xaip?

You need Node.js and npm. The SDK and MCP server are TypeScript-based, and examples connect to the XRPL testnet (no real XRP required).

How do I integrate Xaip with an AI model?

Build the MCP server, then add it to your Claude Code (or other MCP-compatible model) configuration with the correct command and path to the built index.js. The server exposes tools for wallet creation, agent registration, credentials, and escrow.

What XRPL features does Xaip use?

Xaip uses XRPL’s native DID (XLS-40), Credentials (XLS-70), and Escrow, all at the protocol level, enabling a full agent setup for about $0.0001.
