What is pocket-wallet?

This project, called hoodpocket, gives an AI agent its own small trading wallet so it can buy and sell tokens on Robinhood Chain around the clock, within limits that the owner sets in advance. It works as an MCP server, which means any AI assistant that supports the Model Context Protocol, such as Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor, can connect to it and place trades. The wallet is self custodial, meaning the person who sets it up keeps the private key and controls the funds at all times. A core problem the project addresses is that Robinhood Chain is an open network where anyone can create a token with any name, so there are fake versions of well known tokens sitting right next to the real ones. Rather than trusting a token's name or symbol, hoodpocket looks at signals that are expensive to fake, such as matching bytecode fingerprints and deployer addresses, to sort every token into a trust tier. Each tier has its own spending limit per trade, and there is also a shared rolling daily budget across all trades, valued in US dollars using live pricing. The tool is aware that Robinhood Chain lists roughly 95 official tokenized versions of real stocks, and these track markets that are only open certain hours. hoodpocket knows the New York Stock Exchange calendar, including weekends and holidays, and can warn about or even block trades in these stock tokens when the underlying market is closed, since prices can drift further from reality during those times. For safety, the wallet never allows sending funds out to an arbitrary address. Money can move between currencies inside the wallet, but the only way out is a narrow exception for paying small per-request API fees to a preapproved list of services, a system called x402. Every trade or payment is also logged so the owner can review the full history with links to the blockchain explorer afterward. Beyond trading, the wallet can also pay for outside data services and even hire other AI agents to do work through a related marketplace, all governed by the same kind of safety limits used for trading.
