What's left to build

Been trying to build projects on solana but it seems everything I'm building is already built if not better, it quite hard to achieve novelty, I need advice on possible ways to research on a project or product, and possible ideas or directions I can go

Pumpfun has official agent skills now

Was digging through Pump’s GitHub and found an skills repo for AI agents. It covers creating coins, swapping across the curve/PumpSwap, distributing creator fees and verifying agent payments onchain. Most “AI x crypto” tooling still ends at fetching prices. This can actually compose transactions.

Anyone here wired these into Claude or Codex yet?

How do you make an autonomous Solana trader safe against ambiguous transaction results?

We're building a project for the Colosseum hackathon around giving AI agents restricted trading permissions instead of handing them a full wallet.

One failure case we're trying to reason through:

an agent submits a swap, the RPC request times out, and it doesn't know whether the transaction actually landed.

If it rebuilds and signs another transaction, both could potentially execute. A spend cap limits the damage, but doesn't distinguish a retry from a genuinely new trade.

What we're considering:

  • keep the original signed transaction + signature
  • check signature status before doing anything else
  • resend the same signed bytes if needed
  • only build a new transaction once the original can no longer land
  • assign an intent ID before submission for reconciliation

Would you enforce any notion of trade/intent idempotency on-chain, or is transaction-level deduplication + reconciliation at the executor enough?

Also curious about the uglier cases: RPC disagreement, blockhash expiry around a retry, and multiple actions being in flight at once.

Trying to break the design before we ship the hackathon build, so would appreciate any failure cases we're missing.
