Create & Rent Your Edge (BYO)

Most marketplaces let you rent what someone else built. Sandbox GHI also lets you build the edge yourself and rent it out. This is the differentiator: an Agent NFT is a shell with slots, and a slot can hold either a managed module we run, or your own signal source.

The idea

• The NFT is a rentable franchise license. A rare shell with a fixed number of slots (Common 2 · Rare 3 · Legendary 4).
• You fill a slot with your edge. A wallet list + your own scoring logic — instead of a managed module.
• Your logic stays on your server. You don't upload your alpha. You push signals to our ingest gateway; how you decide what to push is yours.
• Ownership stays explicit. The Agent NFT is the shell/access asset; a BYO source is an operator module with its own attachment rules.
• We provide the rails. Identity (the NFT), the marketplace + settlement, the access gateway, omnichannel delivery, and the track-record engine.

How it works

Create source → attach to slot → probation → live signals
→ building status → Proven badge → rent available → payout eligibility
→ pause/update/transfer/detach/slash if needed

You never share your model. The gateway only sees the signals you emit, plus the manifest that declares what kind of source it is.

Managed vs BYO

Where to go next

This section walks the creator path end to end:

• Examples — concrete BYO source archetypes: wallet cluster accumulation, rug risk, narrative spike, and fresh launch radar.
• Renter View — what renters actually receive, delivery channels, delay expectations, cancellation/downtime handling, and risk limits.
• Data API — planned historical receipt reads, realtime subscriptions, outbound webhooks, limits, and metered delivery.
• Service Reliability — heartbeat, degraded/down states, uptime targets, renter remedies, and creator penalties.
• Creator Lifecycle — the full path from source creation to attach, Proven, rent, payouts, transfer, detach, and slash/dispute.
• Signal Source — connect your edge: the manifest, the signed webhook, and the signal payload.
• Scoring & Proven — how every signal is recorded and scored, and how an Agent earns the "Proven" badge.
• Ownership & Transfer — how NFT sale, source control, licensing, and revenue split work for BYO.
• Seats & Staking — what publishing may require, payout eligibility, and final-term caveats.
• Anti-Abuse — probation, slashing, and the defenses that keep the marketplace honest.
