Ethereum Magicians ERC drafts on task tenders and agent identity

Ethereum Magicians saw two technical ERC drafts advance discussion on agent and task primitives. Both threads stayed focused on design details rather than deployment.

ERC-9999 token-bound task tenders

A new ERC-9999 draft on ethereum-magicians.org frames task tokens as reverse assets: token-bound task tenders that act as the demand-side inverse of ERC-8338 skill tokens. The proposal, covered across 30 messages from 8 participants, outlines how such tenders could bind work requests to tokens. Readers tracking agent economies will care because it supplies a concrete counterpart to existing skill-token standards.

Draft ERC for address-anchored agent identity

A draft ERC for Agent Identity (AID) proposes address-anchored identity for live agents built over ERC-8004 and assertion registries. Technical comments from 6 participants across 26 messages addressed timing proofs, facet supersession, and cross-chain scoping. The discussion matters for anyone implementing persistent agent identities that must remain verifiable across chains and upgrades.
