backend grok-cli (SuperGrok Heavy sub, $0 marginal) · window last 8h

Window note: Official ENS / UniswapFND / World / 1inch / Sui accounts were quiet on new SDK drops inside the 8h band. Highest signal is the prizes-page roster delta plus one live Sui primitive still being discussed.

  1. NEW prize track: 1inch ($5k) is now on Tokyo prizes — not in your Jul-14 list; treat as a live track (intent swaps / Fusion / Dev Portal). Prize details still “coming soon.”

  2. Published prize roster now (sum $40k): World $15k · ENS $10k · Uniswap Foundation $10k · 1inch $5k. Sui is not on the prizes page (was on your Jul-14 confirmed set with $55k total) — re-check before locking a Sui-primary build.

  3. 1inch track bait (from prize blurb, not X): they are steering builders to the Developer Portal (17 APIs), Pathfinder Swap API, and Fusion / Fusion+ intent + cross-chain swaps (MEV protection, zero gas for user). Natural fit for your exchange/agent + payment UX stack.

  4. Sui · Hashi still the live BTCfi primitive (testnet/devnet; discourse in-window): native BTC stays on Bitcoin; 2-of-2 + threshold Schnorr + Guardian Layer; mint #BTC/hBTC for Sui loans/stablecoin borrow — open docs + testnet.hashi.sui.io. Useful only if Sui reappears as a partner; otherwise park as optional wedge.

  5. Broader rails · Ripple Mint (RLUSD institutional mint/redeem/bridge + APIs/webhooks) — multichain push includes Base, OP, Ink, Unichain; programmatic stablecoin ops pattern you can mirror for Tokyo demos (7702 + CCTP-style flows), not a Tokyo sponsor.

  6. Security backdrop (slightly pre-window, still builder-relevant): multi-protocol ~$35M day (AFX / Verus bridge / B²-style narrative) keeps “no shared bridge pool / intent atomic settlement” as judge-friendly differentiation — aligns with 1inch’s cross-chain pitch.

Build seeds (≤3)

  1. 1inch × AA/7702: embedded-wallet “swap-or-stay” agent that only fires Fusion+ intents (no bridge custody); preflight shows route + atomic fail-closed.
  2. Uniswap FND × payments: v4 hook that turns a stablecoin invoice into a one-tap limit/intent fill for a trading agent (delight = receipt + reverse path).
  3. World × ENS: proof-of-human gated ENS subname for agent wallets so only verified humans can authorize spend policies / recovery — kills bot-farmed payment UX.
