SDK & Licensing Framework

Development Platform

Open SDK Access

Norexa provides a comprehensive SDK that allows anyone to build and deploy autonomous DeFi agents without requiring permission or approval from centralized authorities. The SDK includes all necessary tools, libraries, and documentation for strategy development, testing, and deployment.

Developers can access strategy templates, market data APIs, and testing environments through the SDK. The framework handles complex integration details with DeFi protocols, allowing developers to focus on strategy logic rather than infrastructure concerns.

Strategy Development Tools

The SDK includes specialized tools for building different types of DeFi strategies. Yield optimization agents can leverage built-in protocol integrations, while arbitrage agents get access to real-time pricing data and execution frameworks. Developers can also create custom strategies using the flexible base framework.

Development tools include backtesting engines that simulate strategy performance against historical data, risk analysis modules that calculate exposure and drawdown scenarios, and gas optimization utilities that minimize transaction costs during live execution.

Testing and Simulation

Before deploying to mainnet, developers can thoroughly test their agents using integrated simulation environments. These environments replicate real DeFi protocol behavior using forked blockchain states, allowing developers to validate strategy logic without risking actual funds.

Testing tools include market scenario generators that create various conditions for stress testing, performance profilers that identify optimization opportunities, and security scanners that check for common vulnerabilities in agent code.

Agent Deployment

Registration Process

Deploying an agent requires registering it with the Norexa protocol along with posting the required bond collateral. The registration process includes code verification, strategy documentation, and initial performance benchmarking to establish baseline metrics.

Developers must provide clear documentation of their strategy approach, risk parameters, and expected performance characteristics. This information becomes part of the agent's public profile and helps users make informed selection decisions.

Code Verification

All agent code undergoes automated security analysis to identify potential vulnerabilities or malicious behavior. While the platform is permissionless, this verification process helps maintain overall ecosystem security and user confidence.

The verification process checks for common security issues, validates protocol interactions, and ensures agents operate within defined bounds. Developers receive detailed reports of any issues found and can iterate before final deployment.

Bonding Requirements

Developers must stake collateral proportional to the capital their agents will manage. This bonding requirement aligns developer incentives with user outcomes and provides compensation funds if agents fail to perform as expected.

Bond amounts scale with the sophistication and risk level of strategies. Simple yield optimization agents require smaller bonds than complex arbitrage or leveraged strategies that pose higher risks to user funds.

NFT Licensing System

Strategy Tokenization

Successful agent strategies can be tokenized as NFTs, creating tradeable assets that represent ownership rights to the strategy logic and future fee streams. This tokenization enables developers to monetize their work beyond direct performance fees.

Strategy NFTs include metadata describing the agent's approach, performance history, and licensing terms. NFT holders receive royalties from the agent's ongoing operations, creating passive income streams from successful strategies.

Revenue Sharing

NFT-based licensing creates automatic revenue distribution between strategy developers and license holders. Smart contracts handle fee collection and distribution without requiring manual intervention or trust between parties.

Revenue sharing terms are encoded in the NFT smart contracts and execute automatically as agents generate fees. This system enables complex profit-sharing arrangements while maintaining transparency and reducing administrative overhead.

Developer Economics

Performance-Based Rewards

Developers earn fees directly from their agents' performance, creating strong incentives to build effective strategies and maintain them over time. Fee structures reward both absolute performance and consistency, encouraging sustainable strategy development.

Performance fees are collected automatically and distributed to developers based on predefined terms. Higher-performing agents attract more capital and generate more fees, rewarding developers who create superior strategies.

Reputation Building

The platform tracks developer performance across all their deployed agents, building verifiable on-chain reputations that enhance future opportunities. Strong reputations help developers attract users to new agents and command higher licensing fees.

Reputation metrics include agent performance statistics, user satisfaction scores, and reliability measures such as uptime and response to market conditions. This reputation system helps users identify experienced developers with proven track records.

Monetization Opportunities

Beyond direct performance fees, developers can monetize their expertise through strategy licensing, consulting services, and custom agent development for institutional clients. The platform facilitates these additional revenue streams through built-in marketplace features.

Developers can offer tiered services from basic strategy access to custom implementations with specialized features. The NFT licensing framework enables flexible pricing models that can accommodate different client needs and budgets.
