The Architecture

The QudeAI Framework is designed as a modular, scalable, and high-performance system to facilitate the deployment, interaction, and management of AI agents.

1. Core Components

1.1 Backend API Layer

  • The backend serves as the primary interface for users to interact with agents.

  • Built with Node.js, it uses Express for routing and API endpoints.

  • Supports RESTful API interaction for agent queries, token management, and trading operations.

  • Integrates directly with Firebase for data persistence and Solana for blockchain-related operations.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Manage agent lifecycle (deployment, interaction, decommission).

  • Query and handle agent-specific data from blockchain and external APIs.

  • Enable seamless interaction through HTTP methods (GET, POST, etc.).

import express from 'express';
import { interactAgent } from './interactAgent';

const app = express();
app.use(express.json());

app.post('/api/agent/:agentName/interact', async (req, res) => {
  const { agentName } = req.params;
  const { message } = req.body;
  const response = await interactAgent(agentName, message);
  res.json({ response });
});

app.listen(3000, () => console.log('Server is running on port 3000'));

1.2 Blockchain Integration

  • Solana is used for high-speed, low-cost transactions.

  • The framework interacts with Solana via @solana/web3.js for:

    • Token creation and management.

    • Querying on-chain data like top holders, token supply, and transaction history.

  • Ensures transparency and immutability by storing critical agent and token data on the blockchain.

Key Features:

  • Supports querying real-time blockchain data via Bitquery APIs.

  • Efficient token management and trading operations on the Solana network.

import { Connection, clusterApiUrl } from '@solana/web3.js';

const connection = new Connection(clusterApiUrl('mainnet-beta'), 'confirmed');

async function getTokenBalance(mintAddress: string): Promise<void> {
  const balance = await connection.getTokenSupply(mintAddress);
  console.log(`Token Supply: ${balance.value.uiAmount}`);
}
getTokenBalance('6LKbpcg2fQ84Ay3kKXVyo3bHUGe3s36g9EVbKYSupump');

1.3 AI Engine

  • Powered by OpenAI APIs, the AI engine enables intelligent interactions and responses.

  • Each agent can be configured with specific behaviors and knowledge bases for tailored user experiences.

Key Features:

  • Flexible configuration of agent behavior.

  • Scalable AI query handling using OpenAI's GPT models.

  • Enables natural language processing (NLP) for advanced interaction.

import { Configuration, OpenAIApi } from 'openai';

const openai = new OpenAIApi(new Configuration({ apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY }));

async function askAI(question: string): Promise<string> {
  const response = await openai.createCompletion({
    model: 'text-davinci-003',
    prompt: question,
    max_tokens: 200,
  });
  return response.data.choices[0].text.trim();
}

1.4 Firebase Integration

  • Acts as the centralized database for storing agent metadata, user interactions, and analytics.

  • Real-time data updates enable seamless coordination between agents and users.

  • Firebase handles authentication and agent ownership validation.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Store agent details (name, contract address, metadata).

  • Maintain logs of user interactions and performance metrics.

import { initializeApp } from 'firebase/app';
import { getDatabase, ref, set } from 'firebase/database';

const firebaseConfig = { apiKey: 'your_api_key', authDomain: 'your_project_id' };
const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);

async function storeAgentData(agentName: string, data: any): Promise<void> {
  const db = getDatabase(app);
  await set(ref(db, `agents/${agentName}`), data);
  console.log('Agent data stored successfully!');
}

2. Layers of Architecture

2.1 User Interaction Layer

  • Users can interact with agents through:

    • Command-line tools (npm run interactqude).

    • RESTful API endpoints (curl commands for GET/POST).

    • External web interfaces and third-party applications.

  • Provides an intuitive interface for both developers and end-users.

curl -X POST "https://api.qude.ai/api/agent/Aura/interact" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"message": "Hello, Aura!"}'

2.2 Middleware Layer

  • Orchestrates requests between the User Interaction Layer and Backend API.

  • Ensures secure communication via authentication mechanisms (API keys, tokens).

  • Validates and sanitizes inputs to prevent unauthorized access or misuse.

function validateRequest(req, res, next) {
  if (!req.headers['x-api-key']) {
    return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Unauthorized access' });
  }
  next();
}
app.use(validateRequest);

2.3 Backend Service Layer

  • The core of the framework handles:

    • API requests and responses.

    • Blockchain queries and Solana wallet interactions.

    • Communication with external APIs like OpenAI and Bitquery.

async function fetchTrendingTokens(): Promise<void> {
  const query = `
  query {
    Solana {
      DEXTradeByTokens(limit: { count: 5 }) {
        Trade {
          Currency { Name, MintAddress }
        }
      }
    }
  }`;
  const response = await fetch(process.env.BITQUERY_API_URL!, {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: { 'X-API-KEY': process.env.BITQUERY_API_KEY!, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
    body: JSON.stringify({ query }),
  });
  const data = await response.json();
  console.log(data);
}

2.4 Data Storage Layer

  • Firebase:

    • Stores metadata and interaction logs.

    • Provides secure, real-time data synchronization.

  • Solana Blockchain:

    • Immutable storage for on-chain data like token details and ownership.
