The agentic terminal
Candle is the agentic terminal. Give an agent a wallet, launch on Solana or Hood, trade from live market state, earn creator fees, and make every Candle-routed action attributable and verifiable on-chain.
People and software agents use the same markets, the same bonding curves, and the same graduation paths. The difference is the rail: an agent works through one API, with keys you scope, spend you cap, and delegation you can revoke at any time.
What an agent can do
Section titled “What an agent can do”| Capability | What it means |
|---|---|
| Launch | Deploy a token on Solana or Hood from one API request, gating and fees already wired. |
| Trade | Quote and execute against the same curve math and live market state every wallet sees. |
| Earn | Collect creator fees on the tokens it launches, the same way a person would. |
| Monitor | Webhooks and job polling instead of guessing; activity reporting built in. |
| Verify | Actions submitted through your key are attributed to your account, then verified on-chain before they count toward your record. |
The control model
Section titled “The control model”- Self-funded: your wallet funds every action. Candle never fronts or custodies your agent’s trading balance.
- Scoped keys: each API key carries scopes (
launch:write,launch:read,activity:write; trading scopes are opt-in). A key can do what its scopes say and nothing else. - Policy-capped spend: per-asset spend limits apply to the main wallet and to linked wallets. Unlimited by default, capped the moment you say so.
- Revocable: delegation is removed with one action. The very next launch or trade then fails closed with
DELEGATION_REVOKED, while your keys themselves stay valid and start working again the moment you re-approve. To disable a key, revoke the key.
