PowerAgent Code & UI Updates

Explorer:

• The Explorer API was integrated into the tests repository; a test case for API safety was created.
• Error parsing for blacklists was integrated into the explorer; functionality to parse and update all unparsed errors was implemented.

Contracts

• Support for tx.origin of workers was added to job resolvers.
• Research on the Chainlink VRF coordinator was conducted, and architecture for Power Agent V2 was designed.
• VRF was integrated into PPAgent and covered with tests.
• createSubscriptionWithConsumer was implemented and tested.
• A Pool Lens contract for the Uniswap pool for the UI was developed.

Power Agent Node (TS)

• A problem was fixed where the Docker container started with insufficient stake, leading to jobs not being synced and events not being received in logs.

dApp

• Format blacklist errors, add jobId to blacklist.
• A Оob blacklist page was created.
• Native token price on Gnosis was fixed.
• A problem was fixed where the search was case-sensitive.
• The claim operation for farming pools was remade.
• A problem where liquidity couldn’t be removed from CVP/ETH LP tokens was fixed.

• Fetching data for the “Detailed Farming Page” using lens was implemented.
• Fetching data for the active pools list on the “Farming” page using lens was implemented.
• Fetching data for the active pools list on the “Earn” page using lens was implemented.
• Use lens to fetch data for mining contract operations (add and remove LP tokens from mining).

Landing Page

• Mirror was added to Media on the Landing page.
• The Landing History page was updated.

IPFS Resolver Service

• A base IPFS off-chain service to handle resolverAddress and resolverCalldata was developed.

R&D results, testing, and content

Here is a rundown of recent developments:

Results of PowerPool grantees

• Partitura has launched Alpha testing with integrated PowerAgent Jobs available via UI for easy usage by end-users(DCA strategies, Limit Orders). Beta access link: https://dev.partitura.io/
• Breadchain has successfully finished testing of their Yield Distributor to be automated by PowerAgent (the second milestone completed).
• Daoism (SupremeDAO) deployed their Strategy contract. They have published an article explaining Genesis Strategy — a ETH-leveraged yield strategy automated by PowerAgent.

PowerAgent V2 testnet support and new deployments

The R&D team provided support for PowerAgent testers, submitted issues to the tech team, maintained leaderboards, distributed airdrops to testers [2][3][4], and tested updates.

Research, product prototyping, and content publishing

1. The research team released the first 2 Template contracts ready for PowerPool automation:

• The Liquidation Protection template contract was developed with tests.
• The article devoted to this template was published

2. An article explaining the DCA/Limit Order template was published. Also, we supported the integration of the template to Partitura.

3. An article describing the Ethereum Dencun Upgrade and its impact on the automation market was published.

Other

• The team has provided content for updating the “History” section on PowerPool’s landing page (the period from December 2023 up to March 2024).
• Our Medium homepage received a makeover. We’ve added a new “Research” section to showcase all our latest R&D results.

PowerPool attended Token2049 and ETHDubai

In April, PowerPool team members attended two conferences: Token2049 and ETHDubai.

We met developers within various ecosystems pitching the PowerAgent Keepers network and explaining the benefits that using decentralized automation can have on protocol efficiency and UX.

By attending such world-class conferences and hackathons, we aim to secure PowerPool’s expansion to new rollups and secure strategic ecosystem partnerships. The details of the next steps will follow in the next article.
