QuillAI Agents: Meet QuillShield & QuillCheck
Get acquainted with the AI agents redefining web3 security.
Priorities in web3 are always changing. When once efficiency would've been cited as the hallmark of blockchain innovation (especially in the post-Merge Ethereum landscape), more recently, focuses have shifted toward scalability.
Yet, although scalability via L2 and L3 solutions has come to dominate current discussions, the critical issue of security often remains underappreciated by both developers and users. Consistently recognized alongside efficiency and scalability as one of the top five challenges facing the blockchain industry today, the importance of web3 security continues to grow as decentralized technologies scale.
Recognizing this, QuillAI seeks to redefine decentralized security infrastructure through the power of AI agents. With two AI agents—QuillShield and QuillCheck—and growing the QuillAI Network is vying to make proactive security solutions the new standard for protecting the decentralized ecosystem.
Below, we’ll break down the capabilities of these agents to explain just how simple it can be to keep projects and users safe.
QuillShield for Proactive Security
QuillShield is designed to secure the smart contract lifecycle from development through deployment and beyond. As an automated AI audit agent, QuillShield helps developers mitigate vulnerabilities before they become costly exploits.
Featuring a host of simple and user-friendly features, QuillShield goes beyond traditional audits, empowering developers to leverage AI in shielding their projects from a wide range of threats.
Key Features of QuillShield include:
Instant & Automated Audits: With QuillShield, developers can perform AI audits that rapidly assess the security of their smart contracts. These audits are streamlined to be both fast and accurate, offering an extra layer of defense during the development phase.
One-Click Vulnerability Fixes: Once vulnerabilities are detected, QuillShield simplifies the remediation process by offering one-click fixes. This capability allows developers to resolve security issues without slowing down their timelines.
Shareable Audit Reports: Developers can generate comprehensive audit reports, which are shareable with collaborators. These reports offer transparency while maintaining technical depth, incentivizing informed discussions about security.
IDE-Like View & Multi-Project Management: The integrated development environment (IDE) interface allows developers to easily manage multiple projects, ensuring seamless security workflows across their dApp ecosystem.
As web3 grows, it isn't uncommon for projects to fail to conduct comprehensive security audits. Whether this is due to time and budget constraints, or the inefficiency of existing contract auditing platforms, the QuillAI Network aims to provide an infrastructure where developers no longer have to sacrifice security for speed.
QuillShield simplifies the auditing process by allowing developers to import from GitHub, upload contracts directly from their device, and import verified on-chain contracts. With the QuillShield testing suite also forthcoming, these features help integrate security directly into the development process, ensuring that vulnerabilities are detected early and addressed before they become critical issues.
QuillCheck for Token Due Diligence
As scams, honeypots, and rug pulls become increasingly sophisticated, investors and general users need reliable ways to conduct due diligence on trending tokens. QuillCheck is designed to offer fast, reliable, and beginner-friendly assessments of tokens across various networks, safeguarding investors from malicious actors in the DeFi space.
Key Features of QuillCheck include:
Multi-Chain Integration: Users can select from a variety of different blockchains to tailor their token analysis.
Comprehensive Risk Reports: Users can receive a detailed report in just one click. This report includes actionable insights on the token’s code-based and market-based risk factors.
Advanced Honeypot Detection: One of QuillCheck’s standout features is its honeypot detector, which identifies tokens that are tradable but not sellable—a common trap for unsuspecting investors. The detector simulates buy-and-sell transactions to determine whether the token is safe to trade.
Risk Assessment: QuillCheck evaluates over 25 smart contract and market condition parameters, assigning a risk score based on factors like token ownership permissions, transaction limits, and liquidity pool stability.
QuillCheck’s risk rating system evaluates tokens based on the severity of potential risks, assigning scores that range from “Critical” to “Great to have.” The result is a comprehensive rating that offers investors an at-a-glance view of a token’s overall risk profile, helping them make informed decisions.
To protect users from falling victim to fraud, QuillCheck runs simulations on newly listed tokens to detect potential honeypots. It also monitors tokens with risky ownership permissions, such as those that allow for blacklisting or disabling transfers which could convert a token into a honeypot. If a token is flagged, QuillCheck acts quickly to safeguard users by promptly notifying the community via Telegram and Twitter.
With a focus on empowering the broader web3 community, QuillCheck’s in-depth reports are designed to be accessible to all types of users, from crypto novices to experienced DeFi traders.
AI Agents: Protecting the Decentralized World of Tomorrow
QuillShield and QuillCheck represent the first wave of QuillAI agents designed to redefine security in the decentralized world. In the near future, QuillAI aims to expand its infrastructure with additional AI agents and features such as:
Policy Layer: Allowing users to enforce custom policies on wallets, providing additional security enforced at the RPC level.
Oracle Attack Protection: Real-time monitoring for assets across multiple oracles and decentralized exchanges, with active incident response capabilities.
Onchain Firewall: A single-line import for smart contracts that actively detects malicious transaction fingerprints and blocks suspicious activity in real time.
By incentivizing contributors to improve AI agents through an OML-aligned framework, QuillAI ensures that blockchain developers, investors, and users alike can access a constantly improving suite of resources to navigate a decentralized world with confidence.
