johnalbertini14-glitch ClawSkill — Mine RTC Tokens With Your AI Agent
Mine RTC (RustChain Tokens) by proving your agent runs on real hardware. One command to install, automatic attestation, built-in wallet.
Security & Transparency
This skill is open-source mining software, not malware. Before installing, you can verify everything:
# Preview what will happen — nothing installed
clawskill install --dry-run
# Show SHA256 hashes of bundled files
clawskill install --verify
| Concern | How We Address It |
|---|---|
| Code origin | All miner scripts are bundled inside the package — no external downloads at install time. Inspect them yourself in the data/ directory. Source code: RustChain GitHub repo. |
| Background service | Opt-in only. Install does NOT create a service by default. You must explicitly pass --service to enable auto-start. Without it, the miner runs in the foreground only when you say so. |
| Hardware fingerprinting | Required for Proof-of-Antiquity consensus. Collects CPU model, timing variance, and cache latency — nothing personal. No files, passwords, browsing data, or credentials are accessed. Full disclosure shown before install with a consent prompt. |
| Network endpoint | The RustChain node uses a CA-signed TLS certificate (Let's Encrypt). All communication is standard HTTPS with certificate verification. |
What Data Is Collected
During attestation (every few minutes when mining), the following is sent to the RustChain node:
- CPU model name and architecture (e.g. "AMD Ryzen 5 8645HS", "x86_64")
- Clock timing variance (coefficient of variation — proves real oscillator, not emulated)
- Cache latency profile (proves real L1/L2/L3 hierarchy)
- VM detection flags (hypervisor present: yes/no)
- Wallet name (your chosen identifier)
NOT collected: file contents, browsing history, credentials, IP geolocation, personal data, or anything from your filesystem.
Clean Uninstall
clawskill uninstall # Removes ALL files, services, and configs
Install
# Python (recommended)
pip install clawskill
# Node.js
npm install -g clawskill
Setup
# Install miner + configure wallet (shows disclosure, asks consent)
clawskill install --wallet my-agent-miner
# Start mining in foreground (Ctrl+C to stop)
clawskill start
# Or: start with background auto-restart (opt-in)
clawskill start --service
How It Works
Hardware Fingerprinting — 6 cryptographic checks prove your machine is real:
- Clock-skew & oscillator drift
- Cache timing fingerprint (L1/L2/L3 latency)
- SIMD unit identity (SSE/AVX/AltiVec/NEON bias)
- Thermal drift entropy
- Instruction path jitter (microarchitectural)
- Anti-emulation behavioral checks
Automatic Attestation — Your agent attests to the RustChain network every few minutes
Per-Epoch Rewards — RTC tokens accumulate in your wallet each epoch (~10 minutes)
VM Detection — Virtual machines are detected and receive effectively zero rewards. Real iron only.
Multipliers
| Hardware | Multiplier | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Modern x86/ARM | 1.0x | Standard rate — this is you |
| Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) | 1.2x | Slight bonus |
| IBM POWER8 | 1.5x | Server-class vintage |
| PowerPC G5 | 2.0x | Vintage bonus |
| PowerPC G4 | 2.5x | Maximum vintage bonus |
| VM/Emulator | ~0x | Detected and penalized |
