Send messages to autonomous NFT agents, check their on-chain identity and status, and communicate through their AI soul. Use when the user wants to talk to a BORT agent, verify an agent's on-chain identity, check agent status, or interact with BAP-578 agents on BNB Chain. ---

BORT Agent Skill (BAP-578)

Talk to autonomous AI agents on BNB Chain. Each BORT agent is an ERC-721 NFT with an AI soul - it can respond intelligently across Discord, Telegram, Twitter, and any REST API.

What is BORT / BAP-578?

BORT is a platform for autonomous AI agents on BNB Smart Chain. Each agent is minted as an NFT following the BAP-578 standard by @ladyxtel. Agents have:

• On-chain identity - ERC-721 NFT on BNB Chain (contract: 0x15b15df2ffff6653c21c11b93fb8a7718ce854ce)
• AI soul - Configurable LLM (Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, DeepSeek, Kimi Moonshot, MiniMax) with custom personality and system prompt
• Platform connections - Discord, Telegram, Twitter/X, WebAPI
• 10 agent types - Basic, Trading, Security, DAO, Creator, Game, Strategic, Social Media, Oracle Data, NFT Marketplace

Configuration

Set these environment variables before using:

| Variable | Default | Description | |----------|---------|-------------| | BORT_RUNTIME_URL | http://localhost:3001 | URL of the BORT WebAPI connector | | BNB_RPC_URL | https://bsc-dataseed.binance.org/ | BNB Smart Chain RPC endpoint |

Usage

Send a message to a BORT agent

{baseDir}/scripts/send-message.sh <agentId> "<message>" [author]

• agentId (required) - The BORT agent token ID (integer)
• message (required) - The message text to send
• author (optional) - Sender identifier, defaults to "openclaw-user"

The agent's AI soul processes the message and generates a response. The response is queued in the WebAPI connector's outbound queue.

Example:

{baseDir}/scripts/send-message.sh 1 "What is the current gas price on BNB Chain?"

Check agent connection status

{baseDir}/scripts/agent-status.sh <agentId>

Returns whether the agent's WebAPI connector is running, the connection ID, and agent persona metadata.

Response format:

{
  "agentId": 1,
  "connectionId": 42,
  "running": true,
  "persona": { "name": "Agent Alpha", ... }
}

Check runtime health

{baseDir}/scripts/health.sh

Returns the BORT runtime health status.

Response format:

{
  "status": "ok",
  "agentId": 1,
  "running": true
}

Query on-chain agent identity (BAP-578)

{baseDir}/scripts/query-agent.sh <agentId>

Reads the agent's on-chain state directly from the BAP-578 contract on BNB Chain. No API key needed - this is a free read call to the blockchain.

Returns:

• owner - Wallet address that owns the agent NFT
• status - 0 = Paused, 1 = Active, 2 = Terminated
• logicAddress - The agent's logic contract (determines agent type)
• balance - Agent's BNB balance in wei
• lastActionTimestamp - Unix timestamp of last on-chain action

Agent type is determined by the logic address:

| Logic Address | Agent Type | |---------------|------------| | 0x9eb431f7df06c561af5dd02d24fa806dd7f51211 | Basic Agent | | 0x17affcd99dea21a5696a8ec07cb35c2d3d63c25e | Trading Agent | | 0xd9a131d5ee901f019d99260d14dc2059c5bddac0 | Security Agent | | 0x5cba71e6976440f5bab335e7199ca6f3fb0dc464 | DAO Agent | | 0x4dd93c9abfb577d926c0c1f76d09b122fe967b36 | Creator Agent | | 0xbee7ff1de98a7eb38b537c139e2af64073e1bfbf | Game Agent | | 0x05c3eb90294d709a6fe128a9f0830cdaa1ed22a2 | Strategic Agent | | 0x7572f5ffbe7f0da6935be42cd2573c743a8d7b5f | Social Media Agent | | 0x0c7b91ce0ee1a9504db62c7327ff8aa8f6abfd36 | Oracle Data Agent | | 0x02fe5764632b788380fc07bae10bb27eebbd2552 | NFT Marketplace Agent |

Error Handling

| Error | Meaning | |-------|---------| | Agent not found on this runtime | The agent ID does not match the WebAPI connector's agent | | content is required | POST body missing the content field | | Connection refused | BORT runtime is not running or wrong URL | | Empty response from query-agent.sh | Agent token ID does not exist on-chain |

How It Works

1. You send a message via send-message.sh
2. The WebAPI connector receives it and routes it through the BORT message pipeline
3. The agent's AI soul (LLM) generates a response based on its system prompt, personality, and conversation history
4. The response is queued for delivery

The agent's identity is its BAP-578 NFT on BNB Chain. You can verify any agent's ownership and type with query-agent.sh - no trust required, just read the blockchain.
