Moneo

Moneo

Autonomous finance for AI agents.
A wallet whose keys the model never sees, a spending policy that runs before anything is signed, and execution for markets that never close.

An agent that can only read is cheap to get wrong. An agent that can move money is not. Moneo is the layer in between: it gives an agent its own account, its own limits, and a record of every attempt, so a mistake costs a refusal instead of a balance.

Built for Robinhood Chain, where tokenized equities and USDG settle around the clock. An agent that can trade at 3am is only useful if it cannot also lose the account at 3am, which is what the guard is for.

npm install @moneolabs/wallet @moneolabs/guard @moneolabs/trading

Or skip the code entirely and hand your agent host a wallet of its own — a real key, a cautious policy, and live pools on Robinhood Chain over MCP:

npx @moneolabs/mcp

Quickstart

import { createGuard } from "@moneolabs/guard";import { createWallet, localSigner, memoryRail, toolkit } from "@moneolabs/wallet";
// What this agent may do with money. Data, not code, and versioned.const guard = createGuard({  perTransaction: { max: "$25" },  rolling24h: { max: "$100" },  counterparties: "allowlist-only",  allow: ["x402:*", "vendor:acme"],  escalate: { above: "$50" },});
// One account per agent. The signer holds the key, the wallet holds a handle.const wallet = await createWallet({  agent: "research-agent-01",  signer: localSigner(),  rail: memoryRail(),  guard,  funding: "$500",});
await wallet.pay({ to: "x402:api.pricefeed.dev/quote", amount: "$0.04" });
// Hand the tools to your agent framework of choice.const tools = toolkit(wallet, { guard });

Packages

Each package works on its own. The guard is useful with no wallet at all: it will happily sit in front of a payment function you already wrote.

How it fits together

agent  │  pay / quote / trade  ▼wallet ──────► guard ──────► decision: allow | hold | block  │              │  │              └─► ledger  (every attempt, verdict and reason, blocks included)  │  ├─► signer     (holds the key; the agent never sees it)  └─► rail       (chain, processor, internal ledger)

Three properties fall out of that shape, and they are the point of the project:

A refusal is free. Policy runs between intent and signature, so a blocked payment is never broadcast and never costs a fee. check() tells you what would happen without doing it.

Money in flight is money you do not have. An allowed decision reserves budget immediately and settles or releases later. A payment that fails at the rail hands its budget back rather than leaving it stuck.

Every verdict is attributable. Decisions record which agent asked, what for, and which version of which policy answered. Policy versions are content-addressed, so two policies that differ only in key order or in how an amount was written get the same id.

Design notes

Amounts are never floats. Every amount is an integer count of minor units in a bigint. A budget that drifts by a fraction of a cent per check is a budget that eventually lets something through. parseMoney("$0.001") throws rather than silently rounding away precision you meant.

Time is injected. Rolling windows, velocity limits, and TWAP schedules all read a Clock. Pass manualClock() and a thirty minute order takes a millisecond to test. The test suite covers a twenty five hour budget rollover without waiting for one.

Refusals are values. The agent toolkit returns a blocked payment as a normal result with a reason and a hint, not as an exception. A model that gets a stack trace retries. A model that gets "this limit is set by the wallet owner, ask them to raise it" stops and says so.

Externals are interfaces. Signer, Rail, Venue, PriceSource, Approver, and DecisionLedger are all interfaces with working reference implementations. The target is Robinhood Chain, but nothing in the packages hardcodes it: a network is a string you pass and a rail is an object you supply.

What is and is not implemented

This repository is honest about its edges.

Fully implemented and useful today. The guard is complete: caps, rolling budgets, velocity, allowlists and denylists, asset and action rules, escalation, reservation and settlement, policy versioning, replay against history. There is no hosted service behind it and none is needed. The money arithmetic, the position book, and the order types are equally real.

Implemented behind an interface, with a local reference adapter. Custody ships as localSigner, a genuine Ed25519 signer whose key never leaves the process, plus remoteSigner for enclave or MPC services. Value movement ships as memoryRail, a real double-entry ledger that happens to be in memory. Execution ships as simulatedVenue, deterministic and driven by a price table you supply.

Not included. There is no hosted Moneo API, no chain client, no card issuing, and no bundled price feed. Those are the adapters you write or that ship separately.

Which also means there is no API key and no account to create. These are libraries, not a client for a service: policy is evaluated in your process, and the signer and rail are objects you pass in. The things with credentials are whatever you connect them to.
