How Arkis works

Overview

Coin teams promise buybacks in chats. Holders cannot verify them. Arkis turns the promise into a public rule: a mint, a plain-language policy, and a fixed split across buyback, burn and holder rewards.

Anyone can open a rule and run the agent. Every run leaves a public receipt. This is software on Solana — not a fund, not a broker, not advice.

Rules

A rule is immutable text plus an allocation. Kinds:

• Buyback — Spend treasury to buy the mint on the open market.
• Burn — Destroy tokens permanently from a designated vault.
• Holder reward — Distribute to holders by a published formula.
• Mix — Split one inflow across buyback, burn and rewards.

POST /api/rules
{ mint, symbol, kind, title, text, allocation, treasury?, createdBy? }

Agent

The agent reads the rule, pulls mint supply (and treasury SOL if set), then returns a plan of actions. When ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is present it uses Claude through the same gateway pattern as prior Solana projects (ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL). Without a key it falls back to a local rules engine — still public, still receipted.

POST /api/rules/:id/run
→ { receipt, plan }

Receipts

Each run stores summary, actions, model, dry-run flag, and a unique receipt id. Wire a memo signer later to carve the same id on chain; until then the receipt ledger is the source of truth on the site.

Custody

Arkis does not hold your treasury keys. Connecting a wallet is optional and only attributes who published or ran a rule. Executing real swaps/burns still requires the treasury operator to sign — the agent plans and receipts; it does not steal keys.

Risks · NFA

1. Not financial advice. Rules and receipts are software output. They are not a guarantee of price, liquidity, or survival.
2. Agent error. Models can misread a rule. Read the receipt. Re-run. Do not blind-trust a plan.
3. Chain / oracle risk. Supply and balances come from RPC. Outages and bad nodes exist.
4. You can lose everything. Solana tokens go to zero. Treat this as experimental.
