What's
Coming
Aegis Vault is in active development — from redundant keepers and permissionless claims, to a thin browser companion and reminders that work with the wallets people already use — so deadlines are visible and check-ins are harder to forget, without taking custody of keys.
When a vault's deadline passes, the keeper bot network will automatically execute the claim — every 48 hours, on a guaranteed schedule. The nominee always receives the funds, even if no one manually triggers it.
Commitment Vault
Lock USDC or SOL with a nominee and a check-in interval. Vault PDA is program-controlled — zero custody.
Proof of Life
Owner signs a `proof_of_life` transaction to roll the deadline forward. Fully on-chain, no backend.
Permissionless Claim
After deadline + 48h grace, `claim_vault` is callable by anyone. Funds always go to the nominee.
Good Samaritan Dashboard
Built-in UI showing all claimable vaults across the protocol. Anyone can execute in one click.
GitHub Actions Keeper Bot
Automated TypeScript bot runs every 2 days via GitHub Actions, scanning and claiming expired vaults.
Kamino Yield Integration
On mainnet, deposited tokens are routed into Kamino Finance reserves. kTokens accumulate yield while the vault is active. Redeemed on claim or close.
Mainnet Deployment
Full production deployment with Kamino CPI, `refresh_reserve` in the same transaction, and live kToken exchange rate redemption.
Automated Keeper Network
Decentralized network of keeper bots — multiple independent operators scanning for expired vaults. Redundant execution guarantees the nominee always receives funds.
Browser Companion (thin extension)
A lightweight extension that works with Phantom, Solflare, or Backpack — not a new wallet. Deadline countdown on the icon, optional reminders, and deep links into Aegis Vault so check-ins are one click away. Your keys stay in the wallet you already trust.
Mobile Companion App
iOS and Android app with biometric-gated proof of life. One face or fingerprint scan triggers a signed Solana transaction — the lowest-friction check-in possible.
Multi-Asset Support
Support for any SPL token — not just USDC and SOL. Vaults holding stablecoins, LSTs, or DeFi LP tokens.
Social Recovery Nominee
Set multiple nominees with a threshold (e.g. 2-of-3 multisig). Funds are only released when the required number of nominees co-sign the claim.
Cross-Chain Vaults
Extend Aegis Vault to EVM chains via Wormhole or LayerZero. A Solana vault can have a nominee on Ethereum or Arbitrum.
Legal Wrapper
Partnership with legal firms to attach an on-chain vault to a verifiable estate document. The vault becomes the execution layer for a digital will.
zkProof of Life
Zero-knowledge proof that the owner is alive without revealing which wallet they are — preserving privacy while still satisfying the on-chain liveness check.
The Nominee Will Always Receive the Funds
Aegis Vault is designed so that no single point of failure can prevent a nominee from receiving their funds. The execution guarantee works in layers:
GitHub Actions Keeper (always on)
ActiveA dedicated keeper bot runs on GitHub Actions every 2 days — fully automated, no human needed. It scans all active vaults, identifies expired ones, and executes `claim_vault`.
Good Samaritan Dashboard (open to anyone)
ActiveAny person on the internet can visit /keeper, see all claimable vaults, and trigger the transfer themselves — earning ~0.002 SOL vault rent as a reward.
Decentralized Keeper Network (coming)
Multiple independent operators running keeper bots. If one fails, others pick it up. The more operators, the shorter the average time-to-execution after deadline.
Nominee Self-Execution (always possible)
ActiveThe nominee themselves can always call `claim_vault` directly. They don't need to wait for a keeper — they can trigger it the moment the grace period ends.
[ Vault deadline passes ]
+0h · grace period begins (48h buffer)
+1h · /keeper dashboard shows vault as claimable
+2h · any Good Samaritan can execute
+48h · grace period ends — fully claimable
[ GitHub Actions keeper runs ]
> scan_vaults() → found expired: 1
> claim_vault(vault_address)
✓ tx confirmed
✓ funds → nominee_wallet
✓ rent → keeper_wallet
Runs again in 48h. Guaranteed.
Nominee ALWAYS receives funds — whether via keeper, Good Samaritan, or self-execution.
Habit layer & decentralized execution
Meet people where they already work — without a new wallet
A thin browser companion talks to Phantom, Solflare, or Backpack: countdown on the toolbar icon, optional reminders, and deep links into Aegis Vault so proof_of_life is a short path, not a bookmark you forget. Separately, we want credibly neutral automation: an open executor layer and optional on-chain scheduling so claims are not tied to a single GitHub cron forever.
Companion, not custody
No Aegis Vault-controlled keyring — signing stays in your existing wallet; the extension is reminders + routing.
Deadline on the icon
At-a-glance time-to-next check-in from the extension badge so the protocol stays visible.
Reminders & calendar
Browser nudges plus optional ICS export so “proof due” shows up next to the rest of your life.
Open executor market
Incentivized keepers, job hints on-chain, and integrations with scheduling networks — redundancy beyond one bot.
Why it matters
Most missed check-ins are attention and habit, not malice. A thin companion plus calendar-aware nudges shrinks that gap while keeping policy on-chain and keys in wallets users already audit and trust.
Mobile (Phase 3)
iOS and Android companion app. Biometric-gated — one face or fingerprint scan signs and submits the Solana transaction. Zero text, zero navigation.
Open contribution
Companion, mobile, and keeper-side tooling are intended to stay open source so anyone can improve reminders, bots, or integrations — transparent code for a transparent protocol.
