selfdriven AI & NEAR AI Integration
How the selfdriven ecosystem — including selfdriven.ai, SDN, Octomics, and your Cardano-first model — can plug into the NEAR AI stack.
1. Why NEAR AI fits naturally with selfdriven
Your ecosystem already uses:
- SSI (KERI, ACDC, VCs, DID methods)
- Cardano as trust + governance + treasury anchor
- Progressive self-actuation and community operating models
- AI assistants (learning, governance, org, community)
- Octomics (proof-of-activity)
- Multi-interface architecture (Human, AI, On-Chain, Infra)
NEAR AI fills two gaps you don’t currently have:
A. Agent runtime
- Persistent autonomous agents
- Delegated keys / delegated permissions
- Automated execution of tasks
- Wallet-capable agents
B. Verifiable inference
- Proofs that an AI model gave a specific output
- Compute marketplace
- Trustable workflows for high-integrity tasks
Cardano stays the trust anchor.
NEAR becomes the execution layer.
selfdriven.ai becomes the mind.
2. How selfdriven.ai connects directly to NEAR AI
selfdriven.ai handles:
- Intent analysis
- Role-based assistants
- Knowledge & evidence flows
- Plans, tasks, decisions
- Human ↔ AI interaction
- VC transformations
- KERI/DID logic
NEAR AI handles:
- Automated actions
- Smart-agent operations
- Verifiable inference
- Delegated authority
- Micro-execution
- Compute tasks
selfdriven.ai = Mind
NEAR AI = Body
NEAR AI agents act on the outputs of selfdriven.ai.

🔧 4. Practical examples of what you can build
1. Governance Assistants
- Draft proposals
- Summaries
- Scenario modelling
- Budget checking
- Publish proofs on Midnight
2. Community Assistants
- Onboarding flows
- Wallet creation guidance
- VC issuance
- Learning plans
- Intent routing to SDN
3. Org Operations Agents
- Schedule tasks
- Update SDN records
- Settle small payments
- Maintain activity logs
- Proactively surface risks
4. Octomics Workers
- Track activity events
- Generate PoA
- Submit proofs to NEAR agents
- Anchor results to Cardano
🧬 5. Octomics × NEAR AI
Enhances Octomics with:
- Agent-collected activity
- Verifiable inference
- Proof-of-Workload
- Proof-of-Engagement
- Proof-of-Contribution
NEAR can run:
- Octomics verifiers
- Event collectors
- Reward calculators
- ZK summarizers → Midnight contracts
🌐 6. How selfdriven.network (SDN) plugs in
NEAR AI agents can call SDN endpoints as event producers or processors.
Example Flow
- A member triggers an intent
- SDN parses → selfdriven.ai Assistant
- Assistant generates plan + tasks
- NEAR AI agent executes low-level tasks
- Cardano stores final proofs (VC, DID event, CIP-68 metadata)
This matches your “intents → actions → proofs” loop.
🔥 7. High-value integration modules (start here)
1. NEAR-powered Community Assistant Agent
Executes:
- notifications
- scheduling
- content updates
- member nudges
- activity capture
2. Org Assistant with delegated NEAR wallet
Handles:
- micro-payments
- contract calls
- task automation
- public commitments
3. Verifiable inference → Midnight adaptor
- NEAR inference proofs
- ZK compression
- Midnight verifier contract
4. Cross-chain Identity Bridge
- did:key / KERI → NEAR binding
- NEAR → Cardano trust layer
5. Octomics Agent
- Collect events
- Verify claims
- Publish PoA proofs
- Update Cardano CIP-68 state
Summary
selfdriven (ecosystem)
= philosophical framework + governance + identity + community operating system.
selfdriven.ai
= intelligence, assistants, intents, comprehension, planning, transformation.
NEAR AI
= agent execution engine + verifiable inference + “body for AI agents.”
Cardano + Midnight
= trust, governance, SSI anchors, treasury, constitutional accountability.
Together they form a multi-chain, agent-powered OS for communities and cooperatives, with:
- trustworthy identity
- verifiable AI
- automated execution
- accountable governance
- composable community infrastructure
Everything stays aligned with your “Progressive Self-Actuation” model.
