Phala-Network/ai-agent-contract-viem

This project is a thin reference implementation (template) for the Phala Network ecosystem. With only 3 stars and zero recent velocity, it serves as a 'getting started' guide rather than a standalone product or protected technology. The defensibility is near zero because the core value lies in the underlying Phala Network infrastructure and the Viem library, not the template code itself. While Frontier Labs (OpenAI/Anthropic) are unlikely to build TEE-specific crypto middleware, the project faces high displacement risk from more robust 'Agent-to-Blockchain' SDKs such as Coinbase's AgentKit, Privy, or specialized AI-agent protocols like Wayfinder and Autonolas (Olas). The technical moat is non-existent as any developer familiar with Viem and Phala's documentation could recreate this functionality in a few hours. Its utility is strictly tied to Phala's niche adoption within the DePIN/TEE space.
