Select tokens and networks in the swap app, review the quote, and authorize the displayed flow. The optional Intent API parses requests such as swap 100 USDC for ETH on Base; it does not execute them. Batch-auction orders settle onchain through configured solver routes. It is a fork of CoW Protocol (orderbook, autopilot, driver, and baseline solver) with a natural-language intent layer over a rebranded CoW Swap UI. On Optimism, Unichain, Robinhood Chain, and Arc, Ophis runs the whole stack under its own settlement contracts and keeps the full fee; on the other supported chains (Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and more) it routes through CoW Protocol's hosted network.
For standard batch-auction orders:
uses uniform prices per token pair. Offchain submission and signed limits mitigate common MEV; they do not eliminate every execution risk.
Ophis also earns when execution beats its reference quote: 80% of improvement on volatile pairs (99 bps cap), or 50% on stable pairs (20 bps cap). Hosted chains encode that policy in CIP-75 appData and separately pay CoW Protocol's upstream fees.
wallet (EIP-712 or ERC-1271), or explicitly presigned onchain. Standard ERC-20 orders keep funds in the wallet until settlement; native-token, bridge and external OTC flows can require deposits and have separate recovery rules.
policy above.
Live across 14 EVM chains, with Ophis-operated settlement on Optimism (chain 10), Unichain (130), Robinhood Chain (4663), and Arc (5042), plus CoW-hosted settlement on the other ten chains. Arc applies the same capped backend improvement policy for in-market orders; settled trades are indexed for routed volume and referral attribution.
Ophis's one bespoke API turns natural language into a structured order. No key, no account, just POST your request:
curl -sS https://ophis.fi/api/intent \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-d '{"text":"swap 100 USDC for ETH on Base"}'{
"ok": true,
"data": {
"intent": "swap",
"entities": [
{ "type": "amount", "value": "100", "raw": "100", "start": 5, "end": 8 },

}
}Map the chain slug to a chain ID and hand the user a swap deep link to review and sign. The endpoint only normalizes text, it never places, signs, or executes a trade. It is rate-limited to 30 requests per minute per IP; non-browser callers (no Origin header) are allowed, which is the path agents use. Full reference: docs.ophis.fi/intent-api.
Ophis is built to be traded by autonomous agents, not just people. Pick your integration depth, all of it non-custodial and keyless:
Point any MCP client (Claude, Cursor, a custom agent) at the hosted Model Context Protocol server:
https://mcp.ophis.fi/mcpIt speaks Streamable-HTTP MCP and exposes 13 tools: intent parsing, canonical token resolution, chain discovery, quoting, bounded order build/validation and submission, integrator volume and fee lookups, balances, portfolios, gas, charts, and expected-surplus comparison. The server holds no keys and never signs. build_order returns a bounded, ready-to-sign EIP-712 order with the receiver pinned to the owner; the agent signs locally with its own key and submits. See the complete tool reference. (A bare request without an Accept: text/event-stream header returns HTTP 406, that is the transport negotiating, not an outage.)
For agents that build and sign CoW orders directly:
npm install @ophis/sdkThe SDK encodes four fork details that fail silently if you guess them:
its orderbook (not api.cow.fi); the wrong host bypasses the Ophis solver and zeroes the fee.
verifyingContract. The OP settlement is non-canonical, so the cow-sdk default is rejected on-chain.
fragment { volumeBps, recipient }, not the price-improvement shape.
unpinned receiver is the number one drain vector for an automated signer.
Ophis publishes machine-readable manifests for agent discovery under https://ophis.fi/.well-known/: mcp.json, ai-plugin.json, agent-skills/, and api-catalog (RFC 9727), plus the root-served auth.md, llms.txt, and openapi.json.
These off-chain helpers make the safe path the easy path, but they are guards, not an authorization boundary: a prompt-injected agent can ignore them. For an agent that signs without a human in the loop, enforce policy where the agent cannot reach it: funds in a Safe smart account, a deterministic policy gate (allowlisted tokens, pinned receiver and appData, an oracle-bounded limit price, spend caps), a guardian key, and the same policy checked again at orderbook ingestion. Full guide: docs.ophis.fi/ai-agents.
Ophis settles across two kinds of chains.
Ophis-operated (self-hosted orderbook, solver, and settlement; Ophis keeps the full fee):
| Chain | Chain ID | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Optimism | 10 | Live: settlement, solver, partner fee |
| Unichain | 130 | Live: settlement, solver, partner fee |
| Robinhood Chain | 4663 | Live: settlement, solver, partner fee |
CoW-hosted (orders route through CoW Protocol's settlement and solver network, with the partner fee disbursed by CoW): Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Polygon, BNB, Gnosis, Avalanche, Linea, and the other CoW-supported chains, all live.
On BNB Smart Chain (BSC, chain ID 56) Ophis is live: orders placed through Ophis (SupportedChainId.BNB in cowSdk.ts, mapped from the bnb slug in chainMap.ts) settle on-chain through CoW Protocol's GPv2Settlement at 0x9008D19f58AAbD9eD0D60971565AA8510560ab41 on BSC, giving gasless, MEV-protected swaps with no Ophis-side custody. Ophis does not deploy its own settlement on BSC; BNB trades use CoW Protocol's canonical BSC deployment.
The two have different settlement contracts and orderbook hosts, so resolve them per chain via @ophis/sdk or the MCP list_chains tool rather than assuming. Full live status: docs.ophis.fi/status. The standalone app also supports Bitcoin, Solana, Monad, Hyperliquid (Hypercore), X Layer, Sui, Tron, Starknet and Zcash as NEAR sources and destinations where live assets and quotes permit. Selecting an external source opens a deposit flow in the same swap form: review the quote and source-chain refund address, confirm, then fund the specified deposit before its deadline with any required memo. This is separate from SDK/MCP EVM order building. See networks and funding coverage. Canonical contract addresses and the disclosure policy live in SECURITY.md.

They are not deployed by a GitHub workflow.
Quality gates: ci.yml (lint, typecheck, tests), codeql.yml, security.yml (dependency and supply-chain scans), and echidna.yml (contract fuzzing). sdk-release.yml publishes @ophis/sdk to npm. All package and MCP publishing controls are documented in the release runbook.
On every supported chain, Ophis charges a 0.01% (1 bp) base. It also charges a capped share of reference-quote improvement: 80% capped at 99 bps for volatile pairs and 50% capped at 20 bps for stable pairs. The operated-chain backends apply the improvement policy; hosted orders encode it in CIP-75 appData and separately pay CoW Protocol's upstream fees.
