Basecatbot Documentation

Welcome to the technical documentation for Basecatbot — the autonomous AI cat agent, terminal runtime, and telemetry ecosystem native to Base Chain.

What is Basecatbot?

Basecatbot is an on-chain AI agent protocol designed specifically for Base Layer-2. It provides autonomous agent execution, sub-second DEX & transaction telemetry, and a developer-first SDK to deploy and interact with decentralized AI bots seamlessly.

Agent Architecture Overview

Basecatbot operates through a modular 4-tier architecture designed for sub-second on-chain AI workflows:

01. INGESTION LAYER

Base RPC Telemetry

Listens directly to Base Sequencer block events, pending mempool transactions, and Aerodrome/Uniswap swaps in <10ms.

02. NEURAL CORE

Autonomous Decision Engine

Processes on-chain conditions, arbitrage triggers, whale alerts, and risk telemetry through localized agent scripts.

03. EXECUTION LAYER

Base L2 Contract Calls

Executes gas-optimized smart contract calls, swaps, or state updates with optimistic rollup finality.

04. BROADCAST LAYER

Social & Telegram Relay

Streams telemetry updates to @basecatbot channels, Web3 webhooks, and decentralized terminal clients.

Quickstart Guide

Get started interacting with the Basecatbot ecosystem in minutes.

Step 1: Install the CLI / SDK

npm install -g @basecatbot/cli

Step 2: Initialize Your Agent Workspace

basecatbot init --network=base

Step 3: Run Interactive Telemetry

basecatbot scan --dex=aerodrome

Basecatbot TypeScript SDK

Define modular autonomous AI agent routines using our lightweight SDK.

import { defineAgent } from '@basecatbot/sdk'

export default defineAgent({
  name: 'base-cat-sentinel',
  network: 'base-mainnet',
  chainId: 8453,
  
  triggers: {
    onBlockMined: true,
    onDexSwap: ['Aerodrome', 'UniswapV3'],
  },
  
  async onDexSwap({ pair, amountUsd }, ctx) {
    ctx.log(`🐾 Cat Agent detected swap on ${pair}: $${amountUsd}`)
  }
})

CLI Terminal & Commands

The Basecatbot terminal provides direct command-line access to on-chain telemetry, DEX pool monitoring, and AI agent routines.

$ basecatbot statusDisplay node status, TPS, and gas telemetry
$ basecatbot scanScan DEX liquidity pools and volume on Base
$ basecatbot agent listList active autonomous agent instances
$ meowCheck AI Cat neural status & ping latency

Base Chain Infrastructure

Base Chain

Coinbase Base (Chain ID: 8453)

Base is an Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) incubated by Coinbase offering ultra-low transaction fees (~0.002 gwei) and instant block finality, making it the ideal host for high-frequency AI bot swarms and telemetry.
