What this is
AI-powered agents (app_kind='aiagents' or 'blockchain_ai') are agents specifically defined by making calls to an AI backend as part of their operation — the AI-powered variant of the agent category, distinguished from a simple rules-based userscript by the fact that an actual model call happens as part of what the app does.
How it works
The 'blockchain_ai' variant combines this with Web3 functionality — an agent that both calls an AI backend and interacts with blockchain infrastructure, useful for something like an agent that reasons about on-chain data and then takes an action based on that reasoning, rather than just following a fixed script.
Holding BOT for this path
Because these agents call an AI backend the same way a full AI Agent does, they carry the same BOT-holding expectation tied to compute usage — the 'aiagents' and 'blockchain_ai' app_kind values are still, underneath, drawing on the same metered AI execution capacity as the dedicated AI Agents category.
