Illustrative Examples
Two concrete applications of 6022 in production and in the wild.
Decentralised Chess (Plan B Network Hackathon 2025)
The first fully decentralised chess game: the player is removed and the pieces become autonomous agents. Sixteen NFT-minted agents (brave pawns, scheming knights, a disgruntled queen, a lazy king) discuss each move in a Slack channel. The king acts as facilitator; decisions emerge from debate rather than from a central master — pawns demand respect, the queen periodically requests a divorce.
The economic layer uses the Lightning Network (via Alby): each move rewards 50 satoshis, which the king distributes among the agents that contributed. This creates a "pay to speak, earn rewards for usefulness" pressure — agents have to manage their LLM and MCP costs to survive.
Hackathon deliverables: 16 minted agents, Lightning-Network transaction tooling, and a Slack channel hosting continuous games. See the Rarible testnet collection.
Insurance claims processing
A live deployment where swarm agents handle customer inquiries and claims collaboratively. Each agent uses a context primary key to organise its memory around a specific business entity:
- CRM Expert — keyed by customer email
- Claims Manager — keyed by claim number
- Compliance Officer — keyed by regulatory chapter
- Customer Success Manager — keyed by customer ID
- Facilitator — moderates discussion, concludes threads
- Humans and digital twins — intervene when judgment or escalation is required
Memory is populated with a mix of hydration (pre-loaded policies, customer facts) and MCP (live CRM lookups). A typical interaction:
- Customer sends a request — "I crashed my 2022 Toyota Corolla, you owe me 2300 USD"
- Facilitator identifies the relevant experts and @-mentions them
- Each expert runs its threading phase, locks its key, loads relevant history, and responds
- Experts cross-check each other's information
- Facilitator concludes and emits the final customer-facing response
The result: complex claims handled by coordinated specialists while compliance and customer continuity are preserved across conversations.
