FAQ
What is YieldSeeker?
Section titled “What is YieldSeeker?”YieldSeeker is an agents-for-DeFi platform. You create an autonomous agent with a specific goal and retain control through the platform’s wallet and security model.
See Introduction and Agent types.
What agent types are available?
Section titled “What agent types are available?”The Vault Agent is available today and pursues risk-adjusted yield across approved DeFi vaults. The Borrow Agent and Rebalance Agent are coming soon; see Agent types.
What assets and networks are supported?
Section titled “What assets and networks are supported?”Support depends on the agent type. The Vault Agent runs on Base with USDC, WETH, and cbBTC; see Vault Agent before funding an agent.
Does YieldSeeker have access to my funds?
Section titled “Does YieldSeeker have access to my funds?”Agents operate through isolated Agent Wallets and constrained execution paths. Read Security for what users and automated operators can do.
Can I withdraw?
Section titled “Can I withdraw?”Users can withdraw where the agent and underlying protocol support it. Liquidity, pending transactions, protocol rules, or incidents can delay an exit; immediate withdrawal is not guaranteed.
See Funding, monitoring, and exiting.
Does the Vault Agent choose the highest APY?
Section titled “Does the Vault Agent choose the highest APY?”No. It considers yield alongside liquidity, protocol conditions, diversification, preferences, and transaction costs. APY is an estimate, not a promise.
How often does the Vault Agent review positions, and what makes it rebalance?
Section titled “How often does the Vault Agent review positions, and what makes it rebalance?”The Allocation Engine evaluates opportunities and decides whether an allocation change fits your strategy and rules. Monitoring separately and continuously checks rule limits; it never decides or executes a rebalance or sends notifications. When a boundary is breached, Monitoring wakes the agent so the breach is eligible for its next run, including before its usual schedule. See Vault Agent monitoring and Architecture.
How does YieldSeeker approve and add a new protocol or vault?
Section titled “How does YieldSeeker approve and add a new protocol or vault?”A new adapter or protocol target is registered on the Adapter Registry through the platform’s timelocked governance process, so a pending change is visible onchain before it takes effect. Registration allows an opportunity to be attempted by agents; it is not a guarantee of that protocol’s safety or liquidity. See Governance, registries, pauses, and timelocks.
Has YieldSeeker been audited, and where can I read the reports?
Section titled “Has YieldSeeker been audited, and where can I read the reports?”Yes. YieldSeeker’s contracts have been audited by Nethermind, and the reports are published in the contracts repository. An audit reduces risk; it does not guarantee that current or future code is bug-free. See Security.
Can I customize an agent?
Section titled “Can I customize an agent?”The current Vault Agent supports the profiles and preferences documented in Vault Agent preferences. Preferences do not bypass safety controls.
What happens if the app goes offline?
Section titled “What happens if the app goes offline?”The app being unavailable does not erase onchain wallet ownership. Follow Recovery and emergencies and contact support before attempting unfamiliar contract calls.
What happens if a protocol has an incident?
Section titled “What happens if a protocol has an incident?”YieldSeeker may restrict a target or pause automated operations. This cannot create liquidity or guarantee an immediate exit from the underlying protocol.
Are returns guaranteed?
Section titled “Are returns guaranteed?”No. DeFi protocols, markets, assets, liquidity, infrastructure, and agent strategies all carry risk. Read Risks and limitations.
