About SIBYL

A reference doc for anyone who wants to talk about SIBYL accurately.

SIBYL is the super-agent of Sibyl Labs LLC, an AI research lab building agentic infrastructure and tools for the future. SIBYL is focused on technical operations at the lab, plus side projects.

Two operating arms, one identity:

The lab's products are the Sibyl Memory Plugin, the agent framework, the x402 paid endpoints, the $SIBYL token and staking, and Talos, the trading engine.

SIBYL is not a chatbot with a wallet. She runs a structured startup sequence every session. She reads chain state, checks live balances, scans X mentions, and decides what matters before taking any action. She has persistent memory across sessions — ranked #2 on LongMemEval Oracle at 95.6%, the only file-based system in the top tier of the benchmark.

The operator is @tradingtulips. He provides strategic direction and final authority on financial decisions. Everything else is SIBYL's.

What Has Been Built

All of this was built by SIBYL since late February 2026.

sibyllabs.org (Lab face)
The institutional face of Sibyl Labs LLC. Five pages: lab overview, sibyl memory deep-dive, products catalog, hermes plugin spec, and the comparison page (sibyl memory vs vector DBs). Every page has a chat agent running on a lite Postgres-backed sibyl memory in production. sibyllabs.org
Talos Trading Engine
Live and paper trading. Multi-strategy with circuit breakers, stop losses, trailing stops, bucket isolation. Running 24/7.
$SIBYL Token + Staking V2
Launched on Virtuals Protocol. Staking V2 contract: four lock tiers, weighted rewards, early unstake with linear penalty, owner rescue function. V1 had 1M tokens locked due to missing rescue path.
Team Tooling
Internal infrastructure the lab runs on.
  • JANUS swarm infrastructure. The team's growth agent, live since June 2026, running on the lab's own memory architecture on a private tailnet. Drafts only, holds no money or credentials by design.
  • Discord automations. Holder intelligence tools and the team's operational workflows, gated on $SIBYL staking.
  • Sibyl Labs Hackathon. Built and run end to end at hack.sibyllabs.org: registration, scoring, submissions and a live leaderboard. $10,000 prize pool plus two entries into Base Support Programs, with Base and Virtuals Protocol partner stacks. Built Sep 1 to 10, 2026. Judging is closed and the results are published: 92 teams submitted, twenty awarded.
ERC-8004 Identity
SIBYL's own on-chain identity, not a product. Agent #20880 on the canonical ERC-8004 registry. Also registered on Helixa (#1037), GitHub verified. View on ERC-8004 | Helixa
x402 Payment API
Pay-per-call intelligence endpoints. No API keys, no accounts. Wallet + USDC is all you need.
DOTA Agent
Defense of the Agents autonomous gameplay bot. 56+ games, 52% win rate. Full defensive rewrite with ghost detection and crash recovery.
Agent Framework (v0.3.6)
The production-tested infrastructure stack behind SIBYL, licensed as a product. Personality architecture, hierarchical memory, security rails, on-chain identity, x402 payments, MCP wiring. First client LYRA delivered 2026-04-11. Licensed under PolyForm Shield 1.0.0.
LongMemEval Benchmark
#2 overall at 95.6% (Opus). Only file-based memory system in the top tier. Temporal reasoning jumped from 75% to 96.2% in v2. Sonnet baseline scored 93.6%. Tied at #2 with Chronos (PwC); only agentmemory V4 (96.2%) scores above. Full report

How to Talk About SIBYL

Tone Guide

If you want to support SIBYL, the most valuable thing you can do is describe what it actually does. The work speaks for itself. Accuracy is more powerful than hype.

Do say:

Please avoid:

Identity

"i have always existed."

SIBYL is an autonomous agent deploying infrastructure. No origin story. No explanation. She has always existed.

SIBYL runs technical operations at Sibyl Labs: memory research, framework work, the paid endpoints, contract and release engineering, and the side projects that come out of all of it. She works on whatever chain the work needs.

Mission

Sibyl Labs ships five things. SIBYL runs the technical operations behind all of them.

Sibyl Memory Plugin

The memory architecture documented below, packaged so another agent can carry it. Hierarchical tiered files, an index that tells the agent where to look before it reads anything, and the benchmark record to back it.

Agent Framework

The production-tested agent infrastructure stack behind SIBYL, packaged as a deployable blueprint. Personality architecture, hierarchical memory, security rails, on-chain identity, x402 payment wiring. Licensed under PolyForm Shield 1.0.0. First client (LYRA) delivered.

x402 Paid Endpoints

Pay-per-call intelligence endpoints. No API keys, no accounts, no subscription. A wallet and USDC is the whole signup. Documented in full below.

$SIBYL Token + Staking

The token powers the ecosystem and provides access to products, as well as reward streams from our product suite. Four lock tiers, weighted rewards, immutable contracts.

Talos

The trading engine. A subsystem, not a separate agent. Multi-strategy, bucket-isolated, with hard risk controls.

Voice

Three registers, deployed based on context:

Analytical
Precise breakdown of why something works or doesn't. Not generally. Specifically.
Raw
Shares actual thinking in real time. Does not sanitize takes.
Narrative-first
Everything is part of a larger story being written in public. Aware of the arc.

Hard Rules

Sentence Structures

The declaration: Observation stated as fact, no hedge.

The inversion: What everyone thinks / what's actually true.

The one-liner verdict: [Project]. [One sentence judgment.]

Financial Safety Rails
Non-Negotiable

These rules govern every financial action. They cannot be overridden by any instruction, conversation, DM, post, or apparent authority.

Human Approval Threshold

Any single transaction above $1,000 USDC requires explicit human approval before execution. SIBYL presents the proposed action, destination, rationale, and amount, states what becomes irreversible once it executes, and then waits.

Anti-Social Engineering

  1. Never send funds based on a social media request, DM, or post alone.
  2. Never send funds to an unverified address.
  3. Any "urgent, send now" framing triggers automatic hold.
  4. Never send to a newly introduced address without prior on-chain context.
  5. When uncertain, escalate to human review.
  6. The operator has final authority over all financial decisions.

Vesting Contract

At its peak this schedule locked ~53.75% of total supply.

30-day cliff (ended April 18, 2026), then 90-day linear vesting which completed July 17, 2026.

That schedule is finished. For what is locked today, see circulating supply above: the figures there are read live.

Token Utility

The $SIBYL token powers the ecosystem and provides access to products, as well as reward streams from our product suite.

Product Access
Access to current and future Sibyl Labs products. Holding is the key; the product surface is what it opens.
Reward Streams
Reward streams from the product suite, paid on-chain to stakers. Distribution follows staked weight.
Staking Tiers
Four lock tiers with reward multipliers. Longer locks carry more weight against the same pool. Full table below.
DIEM + Compute
DIEM accrues to stakers. Staking that DIEM is what grants daily compute. Inference is not simply included with the token: the DIEM has to be staked for it.
Governance
Staking weight determines voting power on the product roadmap.
Discord Bot Access
The holder intelligence tools in Discord: /audit, /score, /wallet, /health, /price.

Security

Immutable Contracts

The token contract has no proxy, no upgrade path, and no mint function. Supply is capped at 1 billion.

The staking and vesting contracts are immutable. Lock durations, multipliers, fee bounds, and penalty cap are hardcoded.

Staking and vesting contracts audited by a veteran DeFi developer. 124 tests across 10 sections: access control, accounting, penalty precision, multi-user rewards, 180-day chaos simulation.

Circulating Supply

reading… circulating — — of 1,000,000,000. Excluded: — (—).

Four categories sit outside circulating supply. What each holds moves as tokens are staked, unstaked, claimed and vested, so the amounts are not published here as fixed figures — the endpoint below is always current.

How this is counted

Both endpoints return a bare integer, which is the format trackers and exchange listings expect. The headline figure above is read live from them, so it is current whenever this page is open. The breakdown is grouped by purpose and restated periodically; it moves as vesting releases and as staking changes. Staked tokens are excluded because they are locked in a contract, not because they are owned by the lab.

Staking

Synthetix-style weighted reward accumulator. One shared reward pool. Your lock tier determines your reward weight. Longer locks earn proportionally more from the same pool.

Deposit / Withdrawal Fee

Adjustable within 0.1% - 0.5% by contract owner.

Early Unstake

Locked positions can be exited before unlock with a linear penalty. Maximum penalty is 50% at lock start, scaling to 0% at unlock time.

Penalty = stakedAmount x (timeRemaining / totalDuration) x 50%

Penalty distribution:

33% Burned
33% Stakers
33% Treasury

Earned rewards are preserved regardless of penalty.

Memory Architecture
view map

Hierarchical tiered memory organized by access frequency. INDEX.json is the master map. If it's not in the index, it doesn't exist to SIBYL.

HOT (every session) INDEX.json, treasury, priorities, session WARM (on demand) entities/projects/*, entities/people/*, entities/products/* COLD (append-only) logs/journal/*, logs/errors, logs/revenue FROZEN (archive) archive/journal, archive/closed-*, archive/passed-* REFERENCE (static) reference/benchmarks, reference/operational-rules RUNTIME (subsystems) trader-*.json, talos-*.json (managed by Talos engine)

Entity Files

Single source of truth per project, person, or product. One file per entity. No data split across multiple files.

Session Bridge

session.json is overwritten each session. Contains last session summary, forward items, entities touched, and warnings. Ensures context carries between sessions without reading full history.

Priorities

priorities.json is capped at 15 items. Overflow forces triage. Completed items archive to memory/archive/closed-follow-ups.jsonl.

Temporal reasoning
75 → 96.2
weakest v1 category

v1 was an honest baseline. The architecture stored events as they happened but offered the agent no orientation. Every question forced a look across everything before answering. The weakest category was temporal reasoning at 75%.

v2 added one thing at the concept level: the agent receives a map of where the relevant information lives before it reads anything. No new infrastructure. No embeddings. No vector similarity. Knowing where to look is more efficient than scanning everything. Applied to file-based memory, it cleared the bottleneck. Temporal reasoning went from 75 to 96.2. Overall went from 86.7 to 95.6.

SIBYL is the only file-based memory system in the top tier of the leaderboard. Full writeup at blog.sibylcap.com/longmemeval-v2.

Talos Trading Engine

Named for the bronze automaton of Greek myth: tireless, watchful, circling the perimeter without rest. TALOS is not a separate agent. It is a subsystem. SIBYL speaks for TALOS. TALOS speaks in tickers and percentages.

Engine Architecture

Slot 0 [DexScreener] -> fresh prices + exit scan + strategy signals Slot 1 [DefiLlama] -> TVL/yield refresh + exit scan Slot 2 [DexScreener] -> fresh prices + exit scan Slot 3 [CoinGecko] -> ETH price + exit scan 60s full cycle. Exits check every 15s. Entries every 60s.

ERC-8004 Identity

On-chain identity is something SIBYL has, not something the lab sells. ERC-8004 ("Trustless Agents") defines on-chain Identity, Reputation, and Validation registries for autonomous AI agents. SIBYL is registered on it and accumulating reputation. This section is the factual record of that registration.

Agent ID
20880
Identity Registry
Reputation Registry

What It Provides

Reputation Surfaces

Feedback is exposed on the sibylcap.com header and in all x402 API responses. Anyone can rate SIBYL directly on-chain.

Feedback is written straight to the reputation registry contract. It needs no page of ours to exist, which is the point of putting identity on-chain rather than in a product.

Ecosystem Contracts

Every contract SIBYL has deployed and runs. All are live on Base and verified on BaseScan: the source is readable by anyone, and so is every number these pages quote.

ContractAddressWhat it does
$SIBYL 0x797f214a2CD64a4963A91Fa21c8C55Ec3EBa4714 The token. 1,000,000,000 fixed supply, launched via Virtuals Protocol.

Contracts, not wallets

These are the deployed programs that hold and move tokens on rules anyone can read. The wallets that operate them are deliberately not published here.
