- VC-backed with real TVL and active development
Social & Community
- Active project with legitimate web presence
- Documentation is detailed and transparent about rebalancing mechanics (1% APY delta threshold, TVL-based safety checks)
Red Flags

Conclusion
This is a per-user vault instance from Zyfai, a legitimate VC-backed DeFi protocol with real TVL, active documentation, and a live MCP server (15 tools). The strong parent project offsets the thin per-instance on-chain footprint (1 tx, 0 balance). Yellow verdict reflects cautious trust — the agent itself has minimal independent history, but the underlying platform is credible.
