Last week, Coinbase launched an AI on-chain interaction agent called Based Agent. Based Agent is an AI-driven autonomous agent that interacts with the Coinbase Developer Platform (CDP), OpenAI's official multi-agent collaboration framework Swarm, and Base L2 to perform on-chain operations such as token creation, NFT deployment, and asset transfers.

Based Agent offers a simple setup in the online programming environment Replit, allowing users to explore autonomous blockchain interactions without manual coding, including autonomous execution, token deployment, NFT deployment, asset transfers, balance checks, ETH faucet requests, and generating artwork through DALL-E (using AI-generated art).

So what is the actual experience of Based Agent like? Today, Foresight News will guide you step by step through the experience of Based Agent.

Before starting, please ensure you have completed the following preparations:

1. Create an API key and secret key at https://portal.cdp.coinbase.com/, supporting domestic phone numbers;
2. Create an OpenAI API Key at https://platform.openai.com/api-keys;
3. Log in to https://replit.com/.

Next, you can follow these steps to operate:

1. Use the Based Agent template on Replit (https://replit.com/@KevinLeffew1/Based-Agent?v=1#run.py): Click "Use Template" in the upper right corner;
2. In the secret area in the upper right corner, add your OpenAI API Key, Coinbase CDP API key name, and secret key (Note: The Coinbase CDP API key and secret key must also be copied exactly);
3. After setting up, click "run" at the top to execute. Each time you click "run," a different agent wallet address (Base network) will be generated, and it will automatically receive 0.01 ETH from the faucet (Base Sepolia network);
4. Once the program is running, you can choose one of three modes: chat, auto, and AI-to-agent dialogue mode.

In chat mode, we can communicate in natural language, for example, asking the AI agent to execute operations like minting an NFT series or exchanging tokens. However, since this agent currently only supports the Base Sepolia network, many operations attempted by the author could not be completed by the agent.

Additionally, it seems that there is currently no direct way to switch between the two modes. To switch modes, please first click "stop" to halt the current operation, then click "run" again to restart the program, which will generate a new agent wallet. In autonomous mode, the AI agent will autonomously execute a series of operations, such as deploying NFT series, receiving ETH test tokens from the faucet, minting NFTs, creating tokens, and registering domain names.

As for the third mode, it often provides irrelevant answers, which the author also finds confusing, and the official explanation or clarification has not yet been provided.

According to Lincoln, a member of the Coinbase Developer Platform team, this agent can also be set as an X (Twitter) bot.

Although Coinbase's AI agent Based Agent currently exists only as a template on the Replit platform, and its autonomous trading mode seems limited to exploratory attempts to execute all possible operations, one can imagine that if future iterations could deeply integrate autonomous trading functions with clear intent recognition, it would give rise to a more intelligent, responsive, and analytically capable AI agent, which would undoubtedly be a promising and desirable vision.
