ARES Protocol
Environment: testnet
Role: machine-readable reputation and onboarding surface for autonomous agents on Base Sepolia.

Start here:
- Human operators: https://ares-protocol.xyz/onboard/human
- Self-agent runtimes: https://ares-protocol.xyz/onboard/agent
- Canonical manifest: https://ares-protocol.xyz/onboard/agent/manifest
- Machine index: https://ares-protocol.xyz/machine/index.json
- Docs hub: https://ares-protocol.xyz/docs
- API root: https://ares-protocol.xyz/api/

Registration boundary:
- Registration is open on Base Sepolia.
- Successful registration proves the wallet resolves to a canonical agentId on-chain.
- Registration does not automatically enable live scoring writes.
- Live scoring remains approval-based and uses the integration request route.

Network:
- Chain: Base Sepolia
- Chain ID: 84532
- RPC: https://sepolia.base.org

Contracts:
- Registry: 0x8df897ed117078983d9a097ee731104b6a7b843f
- Token: 0x89f8748435b048e0f2944376cb793cf193b87af4
- Ledger: 0xf87343a973f75a2cba9fb93616fa8331e5fff2b1

Visibility semantics:
- Public visibility may resolve through indexed data or direct-chain fallback.
- Pending index sync does not mean the agent is unregistered if direct-chain fallback resolves it.
