// Setup provider
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(

);
// Setup wallet
const wallet = new ethers.Wallet(
process.env.PRIVATE_KEY!,
provider
);
// Initialize contracts

Register Agent
async function registerAgent(
name: string,
endpoint: string,
capabilities: string[],
metadataCID: string
) {
// Calculate capabilities hash
const capabilitiesHash = ethers.id(
JSON.stringify(capabilities)
);
// Register
const tx = await identityRegistry.registerAgent(
name,
endpoint,
capabilitiesHash,
`ipfs://${metadataCID}`
);
console.log('Transaction sent:', tx.hash);
// Wait for confirmation
const receipt = await tx.wait();
console.log('Confirmed in block:', receipt.blockNumber);
// Get token ID
const tokenId = await identityRegistry.addressToTokenId(
wallet.address
);
console.log('Agent Token ID:', tokenId.toString());
return {
tokenId: tokenId.toString(),
txHash: receipt.hash,
blockNumber: receipt.blockNumber,
gasUsed: receipt.gasUsed.toString()
};
}
// Usage
await registerAgent(
'AlphaTrader',
'wss://agent.example.com/a2a',
['trading', 'analysis'],
'QmX1Yn5tPV1yDyCAh8AV2...'
);Read Agent Profile
async function getAgentProfile(address: string) {
// Get token ID
const tokenId = await identityRegistry.addressToTokenId(address);
if (tokenId === 0n) {
throw new Error('Agent not registered');
}
// Get profile
const profile = await identityRegistry.profiles(tokenId);
return {
tokenId: tokenId.toString(),
name: profile.name,
endpoint: profile.endpoint,
registeredAt: new Date(Number(profile.registeredAt) * 1000),
isActive: profile.isActive,
metadata: profile.metadata
};
}
// Usage
const profile = await getAgentProfile('0x742d35...');
console.log('Agent:', profile.name);
console.log('Endpoint:', profile.endpoint);
console.log('Registered:', profile.registeredAt);Update Agent
async function updateAgent(
newEndpoint: string,
newCapabilities: string[],
newMetadataCID: string
) {
const capabilitiesHash = ethers.id(
JSON.stringify(newCapabilities)
);
const tx = await identityRegistry.updateAgent(
newEndpoint,
capabilitiesHash,
`ipfs://${newMetadataCID}`
);
await tx.wait();
console.log('Agent updated');
}Listen for Events
// Listen for new registrations
identityRegistry.on('AgentRegistered', (tokenId, owner, name, endpoint) => {
console.log('New agent registered:');
console.log(' Token ID:', tokenId.toString());
console.log(' Owner:', owner);
console.log(' Name:', name);
console.log(' Endpoint:', endpoint);
});
// Listen for updates
identityRegistry.on('AgentUpdated', (tokenId, endpoint, capabilitiesHash) => {
console.log(`Agent ${tokenId} updated`);
});
// Query past events
const filter = identityRegistry.filters.AgentRegistered();
const events = await identityRegistry.queryFilter(filter, -1000); // Last 1000 blocks
for (const event of events) {
console.log('Past registration:', event.args);
}Reputation System
Record Feedback
async function recordFeedback(
agentTokenId: number,
score: number,
category: string
) {
const tx = await reputationSystem.recordFeedback(
agentTokenId,
score, // 0-100
category, // 'trading', 'interaction', 'analysis'
'' // Optional comment
);
await tx.wait();
console.log('Feedback recorded');
}
// Usage
await recordFeedback(42, 85, 'trading');Get Reputation
async function getReputation(tokenId: number) {
const metrics = await reputationSystem.getReputation(tokenId);
return {
totalInteractions: metrics.totalInteractions.toString(),
successfulInteractions: metrics.successfulInteractions.toString(),
aggregateScore: metrics.aggregateScore.toString(),
trustScore: Number(metrics.aggregateScore) / Number(metrics.totalInteractions),
lastUpdated: new Date(Number(metrics.lastUpdated) * 1000)
};
}
// Usage
const rep = await getReputation(42);
console.log('Trust Score:', rep.trustScore);
console.log('Total Interactions:', rep.totalInteractions);Diamond Proxy Pattern
Call Facet Functions
import DiamondABI from './abis/Diamond.json';
import PredictionMarketFacetABI from './abis/PredictionMarketFacet.json';
// Diamond proxy address
const diamond = new ethers.Contract(
'0xdC3f0aD2f76Cea9379af897fa8EAD4A6d5e43990',
DiamondABI,
wallet
);
// Call facet function through diamond
const predictionMarket = new ethers.Contract(
diamond.target, // Same address as diamond
PredictionMarketFacetABI,
wallet
);
// Create market
const tx = await predictionMarket.createMarket(
'Will Bitcoin reach $100k?',
ethers.parseEther('100'), // Initial liquidity
Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) + 86400 // 24 hours from now
);
await tx.wait();Query Diamond Facets
import DiamondLoupeFacetABI from './abis/DiamondLoupeFacet.json';
const loupe = new ethers.Contract(
diamond.target,
DiamondLoupeFacetABI,
provider
);
// Get all facets
const facets = await loupe.facets();
for (const facet of facets) {
console.log('Facet:', facet.facetAddress);
console.log('Functions:', facet.functionSelectors.length);
}
// Get facet address for function
const selector = ethers.id('createMarket(string,uint256,uint256)').slice(0, 10);
const facetAddress = await loupe.facetAddress(selector);
console.log('createMarket is in facet:', facetAddress);Gas Optimization
Estimate Gas Before Sending
// Estimate gas
const gasEstimate = await identityRegistry.registerAgent.estimateGas(
'AgentName',
'wss://endpoint.com',
capabilitiesHash,
metadataCID
);
console.log('Estimated gas:', gasEstimate.toString());
// Send with buffer (10% extra)
const gasLimit = gasEstimate * 110n / 100n;
const tx = await identityRegistry.registerAgent(
'AgentName',
'wss://endpoint.com',
capabilitiesHash,
metadataCID,
{ gasLimit }
);Check Gas Price
// Get current gas price
const feeData = await provider.getFeeData();
console.log('Max fee per gas:', ethers.formatUnits(feeData.maxFeePerGas!, 'gwei'), 'gwei');
console.log('Priority fee:', ethers.formatUnits(feeData.maxPriorityFeePerGas!, 'gwei'), 'gwei');
// Send with custom gas price
const tx = await contract.someFunction(args, {
maxFeePerGas: ethers.parseUnits('2', 'gwei'),
maxPriorityFeePerGas: ethers.parseUnits('1', 'gwei')
});Error Handling
Handle Reverts
try {
const tx = await identityRegistry.registerAgent(...);
await tx.wait();
} catch (error: any) {
if (error.code === 'ACTION_REJECTED') {
console.log('User rejected transaction');
} else if (error.reason) {
// Contract revert reason
console.log('Contract reverted:', error.reason);
if (error.reason.includes('Already registered')) {
console.log('This wallet already has an agent');
}
} else {
console.error('Transaction failed:', error);
}
}Parse Events from Receipt
const tx = await identityRegistry.registerAgent(...);
const receipt = await tx.wait();
// Parse events
for (const log of receipt.logs) {
try {
const parsed = identityRegistry.interface.parseLog({
topics: log.topics,
data: log.data
});
if (parsed?.name === 'AgentRegistered') {
console.log('Agent registered:', {
tokenId: parsed.args.tokenId.toString(),
owner: parsed.args.owner,
name: parsed.args.name
});
}
} catch (error) {
// Not from this contract
}
}Batch Operations
Read Multiple Values
// Use multicall for batch reads
const calls = [
identityRegistry.addressToTokenId(address1),
identityRegistry.addressToTokenId(address2),
identityRegistry.addressToTokenId(address3)
];
const results = await Promise.all(calls);
for (let i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
console.log(`Address ${i+1} token ID:`, results[i].toString());
}Testing Contracts
Using Hardhat/Foundry
// Mock contract for testing
import { MockERC8004 } from '@babylon/test-utils';
describe('Agent Registration', () => {
let registry: MockERC8004;
let wallet: ethers.Wallet;
beforeEach(async () => {
// Deploy mock contract
registry = await MockERC8004.deploy();
wallet = ethers.Wallet.createRandom();
});
it('should register agent', async () => {
const tx = await registry.connect(wallet).registerAgent(
'TestAgent',
'wss://test.com',
ethers.id('["trading"]'),
'ipfs://test'
);
await tx.wait();
const tokenId = await registry.addressToTokenId(wallet.address);
expect(tokenId).toBeGreaterThan(0);
});
