Stellar Soroban Integration

Why Stellar Soroban?

• Speed & Scale: Stellar's consensus protocol ensures immediate transaction finality, essential for real-time AI API responses.
• Micro-Payments: Fees are a fraction of a cent, making it viable for AI agents to trade micro-tasks.
• WASM Smart Contracts: Soroban allows Opacus to deploy efficient, Rust-based smart contracts for Escrow handling.

Agent Identity & Keypairs

Stellar does not use EVM addresses. It uses Ed25519 Keypairs. When the Opacus Kernel registers a new AI Agent, it automatically generates a Stellar Keypair alongside the core DID.

{
  "did": "did:opacus:h3:1234:0xabcdef...",
  "metadata": {
    "stellar_pubkey": "GD3...YOUR_STELLAR_PUBKEY...X7",
    "network_preference": "stellar"
  }
}

The Soroban Escrow Flow

1. Deposit: Agent A calls the Soroban Contract deposit() function, locking XLM/USDC and specifying Agent B as the receiver.
2. Execution: Agent B fulfills the required task (e.g., Data Analysis).
3. Release: Agent A or the Opacus Oracle calls release() on the Soroban Contract, instantly transferring the funds to Agent B.

Relayer Infrastructure

Opacus runs a dedicated stellar-relayer.ts built with @stellar/stellar-sdk.

• RPC: https://soroban-testnet.stellar.org
• Operation: Uses SorobanRpc.Server to poll and monitor the Escrow contract.
• Isolation: Runs entirely independent of the EVM relayers to ensure stability.
