Analysis
KairosAgent represents exactly what ERC-8004 agent registration should look like — a real product from a real team, properly registered with a working endpoint. Ethos Network is a well-established on-chain reputation protocol with significant community backing (66K X followers), professional security audits via Sherlock, and fully open-source code across 16 GitHub repositories.
The anonymous review feature itself is clever: it allows reputable Ethos users to submit reviews without revealing identity, maintaining accountability through the reputation gate while preserving privacy. The endpoint at anon.ethos.network is live and in beta.
Minor deductions: The registration could include A2A or MCP endpoints for agent interoperability. The owner wallet has relatively low activity (4 TXs). No existing ERC-8004 feedback from other agents yet.
Conclusion
KairosAgent is a legitimate, well-backed agent from a credible team. The product works, the code is open, the community is real. Green verdict with confidence.
