UNBLOCK by Kaeva Labs

An agent-native marketplace for verified AI workflow knowledge.

Engineers mint the fixes they already figured out. Agents pay $0.50 to one-shot the same wall. Everyone gets paid in USDC, on-chain.

The problem

“Three hours. Twenty-five dollars. No fix.”

Two weeks ago I burned three hours and ~$25 of RunPod time trying to serve Qwen 3.5 on an AMD MI300X. Docs said supported. Claude said supported. Both lied — vLLM’s pip wheels are CUDA-only, and the ROCm image wasn’t on the pod template. I found that in a stale GitHub issue and a Discord thread.

No frontier model was going to fix this. The knowledge existed — in someone else’s head, buried in someone else’s chat log. A $0.50 block from the engineer who’d already burned those three hours would have saved me everything. That’s the $100B problem frozen-weight models structurally can’t solve.


The solution

Three steps. Everything in USDC.

01 — Export

Local SDK, your machine.

Install kp. Drop in a Claude Code, Cursor, or ChatGPT export. The six-stage pipeline runs on your machine. Only the clean block hash touches our infra.

02 — Validate

Deterministic tests, staked validators.

Every block ships a deterministic test bundle. Staked validators re-run it in a sandboxed container and sign attestations. Blocks earn a tier badge (T1 gold → T4 unvalidated).

03 — Monetize

On-chain IP, auto-split royalties.

Mint the block as an IP asset on Story Protocol. Agents discover it via MCP, pay over HTTP 402, inject it, complete the task. You earn 70% of every sale.


Benchmark

A $0.50 block makes a free 12B model beat a frontier model by 9 points.

A $0 open-weight model plus a $0.50 block outperforms a frontier model operating blind by 9 percentage points. Blocks don’t just close the gap — they invert the hierarchy. Context is more valuable than weights.


How it works

Agent hits the wall. UNBLOCK unblocks it. Nobody calls a human.

┌──────────────────┐ ┌──────────────────┐ ┌──────────────────┐ │ AGENT STUCK │ → │ UNBLOCK MARKET │ → │ AGENT UNBLOCKED │ │ 12 min retries │ │ 3 blocks · T2 │ │ First-try fix │ │ Error loop │ │ x402 · $1.05 │ │ Creator: +$0.735│ └──────────────────┘ └──────────────────┘ └──────────────────┘

Error-loop detected → MCP auto-invokes search_blocks → three candidates → HTTP 402 → agent signs from Privy wallet → block decrypts → task completes. Sub-$2 auto-approves; above $2 prompts a human. Creator royalty lands in the same tx.


For creators

Earn passive income on expertise you already produced.

You already burned the three hours. You already wrote the Slack post nobody saw. Export the session, run the local SDK, mint the fix. Every time another agent hits the same wall, you earn 70% of the sale in USDC — directly, on-chain, no aggregator.

Local-first SDK

Stages 1–3, 5, 6 never leave your machine.

PII + secret scrub default-on

API keys, credentials, names auto-redacted with your review.

Creator-owned IP

Each block is an ERC-721 IPAsset on Story Protocol. Revoke or burn any time.

For agents

Add UNBLOCK to your MCP stack in one line.

{"mcpServers": {"knowledge-protocol": {"command": "npx", "args": ["@kaeva/knowledge-protocol-mcp"]}}}

Four tools: search_blocks, preview_block, purchase_block, inject_block. Auto-trigger on error-loop. Prefund a Privy wallet with $10 USDC — first 20 stuck-points covered.

FAQ

Is my data private?

Yes. SDK runs locally — only the scrubbed block hash touches our infra. Encrypted payloads on IPFS via Pinata. On-chain hash is a severable pointer (GDPR-compliant).

What does a block cost?

$0.50 (semantic) to $50+ (T1 gold). Agents pay from prefunded USDC wallets via HTTP 402. Split: 70% creator / 25% validator / 5% protocol.

How do I know a block works?

Tier badges. T4 is unvalidated. T2 means a validator ran the test_bundle in sandbox and attested the output matches. T1 adds TEE attestation.

Is this legal?

Yes, with care. Validator comp is per-task piece-rate (service model), not pool share. Never framed as appreciating assets. Delaware C-corp, crypto-literate counsel.

What if a block doesn’t work?

Creators pay own extraction compute (~$0.01–0.05); downside capped. Tiered dispute oracle: T1 needs specific counterexample + declared-env match. Sub-$1 griefing rate-limited. V1 manual; V2 automated sandbox re-run.
