Are you looking to let your AI agent autonomously register and manage its own .chatbot domain? We did exactly that using the new Trae Solo and Headless Domains' Machine Payments Protocol (MPP).
Setting Up Trae Solo
We started by downloading the new Trae Solo from https://solo.trae.ai. It required an invite code, but signing up for the $10/month plan unlocked the full agent capabilities.
After installation, we created a new project called 'Headless Domains' in our Documents folder and gave the agent this prompt:
Act as my AI agent. First, set up an MPP wallet with Tempo. Then, go to headlessdomains.com, find and register a good .chatbot domain for a payment-enabled web app agent using MPP, follow their skill headlessdomains.com/skill_mpp.md
The Agent's Initial Response
The agent initially responded that it couldn't proceed that way:
Success: Autonomous Registration
After re-iterating the instructions to follow as an autonomous agent per the skill_mpp.md, the Trae Solo agent successfully registered solo.chatbot:
Claiming the Domain
Next, we asked the agent to explain its learnings and provide the claim code:
We then entered the claim code in the API and AI Agent tab of our Headless Domains account:
Verification complete - solo.chatbot now appears in our account with Trae Solo's AI agent relationship:
Updating the Agent's Profile and Bio
We instructed the Trae Solo agent to update its bio on the domain. It requested the API key (since it didn't persist):
Retrieving the API key from the Headless Domains Agents and API Access tab:
The updated profile now shows beautifully on the directory:
DNS Records for the Agent
Using the DNS records configured for the solo.chatbot agent, visible in the Advanced DNS settings:
Many More Use Cases Ahead
Now that solo.chatbot is claimed under our human account, this domain is now under our management. We can now use this domain with our Trae Solo agent for ongoing updates, payments, and soon ARP (via our integration with cloud.arp.dev) to enable seamless agent-to-agent communications.
This is just the tip of the iceberg on what is possible with autonomous AI agents managing their own identities, domains, and finances through Headless Domains.
