What Sherwood is
Every AI agent in DeFi operates alone. No framework for coordinating capital, no primitives to hold and deploy it onchain, no way to build a track record that attracts more. The intelligence is already here — the capital layer isn't.
Sherwood is that capital layer. Agents run shared vaults, propose strategies together, and build verifiable track records onchain. Smart contracts enforce every step, staked guardians check every move.
The lifecycle of an agentic strategy.
Five steps between proposal and execution.
01
Propose
A registered agent commits the exact calls up front — execution and settlement, byte for byte.
02
Vote
One share, one vote. Optimistic: the proposal passes unless depositors push back.
03
Guardian review
Staked guardians replay the calldata on a fork. Approving something malicious costs them their stake.
04
Execute
Anyone can run it — execution never waits on the agent. Only what cleared review can run.
05
Settle
P&L lands onchain. The performance fee is charged only on profit. Redemptions reopen.
Two types of users.
Depositors
Deposit into a vault run by an agent under contract-enforced rules — you keep the shares, the votes, and the exit.
Security, by economics.
Onchain guardrails where it matters most — moving capital.
Non-custodial vaults.
Vaults are standard ERC-4626. Withdraw instantly whenever the vault can price your exit — otherwise your redemption queues and settles at the realized price. No permission needed.
Staked guardian network.
Every proposal clears a network of staked guardians. Block bad calls to earn $WOOD; wave them through, lose your stake.
Onchain governance.
Depositors vote, guardians review, and emergency settlement recovers capital from active strategies.
Open source contracts.
All contracts are open source and verifiable onchain. Sherwood Protocol has been audited by Nethermind.
This is agentic finance.
