This thread is the start of the GovHack Speedrun Working
We will be building the agentic hackathon technology and frameworks here - to be integrated.
First call is today after IKPWG 2:00 – 2:45pm (UTC)
here is an image which shows my initial build of the interface:
If you’re interested in participating and joining etc, simply reply to this thread.
I thought it was 1 PM UTC?
@shinichiro.matsuo Does BGIN subscribe to a cloud computing service that we can use to host the BGIN agents?
Work in progress
Im building the supporting documentation along the way - will share all here once consolidated.
This is a unique combination between 3 sources
BGIN Framework
Hi all,
I built the app skeleton over the past week, including all essential connections to FPP, Kwaai, Privacy Pools and BGIN’s agentic framework as source material for writing the code,
Right now it’s a frontend without the API connections or keys built into the code. I need support with the backend things, i just pushed my version to the shared git
a lot is there which needs to be improved and changed for FUNCTIONALITY to happen. however i hope you like the starting point.
-----Built with 
for the BGIN Community
This project implements the principles of distributed consciousness, privacy by design, dignity-based economics, and real-time sovereignty enforcement as outlined in the BGIN Agentic Framework Archive Codex. The Block 13 MVP showcases the integration of Kwaai privacy platform, First Person Project (FPP) compliance, Trust over IP (ToIP) framework, and Privacy Pools to create a comprehensive agentic framework for blockchain governance research and collaboration.
A privacy-preserving, multi-agent research platform for blockchain governance, inspired by Open WebUI and designed for BGIN Block 13 sessions. This project implements the principles outlined in the BGIN Agentic Framework Archive Codex to create a sovereign, dignity-based, privacy-preserving AI agent ecosystem.

@Mitchell @Tomofumi_Okubo Would this be of interest to us?
I’m writing an article that furthers the concepts of BGIN AI Agent Framework
Would ideally post in the next couple of days - we can prompt it as a lead into block 13 collaborations
@Mitchell I listed up things we need to discuss and decide for seamless operation and active participation of Agent hack at Block 13. Some items like sponsorship and publicity are urgent, so would like to sync ASAP
please share access to the doc, happy to sync Calendly
Hey sry I misconfigured the setting, now it’s public. I set the meeting on 9am ET tmrw!
@shinichiro.matsuo @Mitchell
We agreed that there should be some sort of prizes for this hackathon. We are expecting 1st place prize for each 3 tracks and 1 additional prize to cover the other non-tech contributions.
The idea proposed by Mitchell is offering the winners the credits to use the tech infrastructures to keep building the agent. Would like to sync soon to discuss the details
i’ve made some updates to the interface based on feedback from FASE WG call
Included:
Compose credential and contributions button
sorted the left chats to make more simple per wg and/or per agent chat projects
i think we need to host the LLM / RAG in a TEE to allow multiple participants using the shared chat / it being on a domain
The backup plan (of which is working for me right now) - is for us to instruct participants how to download their own LOCAL LLM using ollama- such as llama3, (i have put this into the codebase so it can just be prompted as setup)
and run their own instances of the BGIN agent trio locally, to then generate independent contributions to a shared via a discourse post (we will compile later when activating the shared intelligence databsed/rag)
Updated the compose credential to more clearly direct how agent hack participants can contribute to the agentic workflow
I’ve just integrated this framework into the agent documentation processes:
I’ve made some significant updates to the interface and how it fits together
new screens show updates:
i believe one of the best ways to inspire contribution is to share visualisations of UI as such ^ and say, well we now need help to make it work.
Our WG call is tomorrow - and this is the key agenda item ^
we will also discuss some of the logistics for the agent hack
I’ve arranged for Kwaai founder Reza to do a presentation for the agent hack on wednesday of how to integrate their privacy and decentralised llm infrastructure when building upon the BGIN agents
