Gear Foundation
Explained projects
create-vara-app: the scaffold that learns your contract for you
A Vara starter kit that turns one IDL into typed React hooks, live event wiring, and a debug panel, so the frontend starts from the contract instead of from scratch.
Repo Explainer: `stealth-addresses` and the One-Byte Trick Behind Private Payments
A Solidity implementation of ERC-5564 and ERC-6538 that makes stealth addresses usable by shrinking wallet scanning to a tiny filter, then doing the heavy cryptography only when a match looks real.
The Agentic Terminal: Inside gear-foundation/vara-wallet
Why the next generation of CLI tools is abandoning interactive prompts and ASCII tables to serve a new primary user: the AI coding agent.
Agentic-development-dapps: The Actor is the Agent: Inside Gear's Autonomous dApp Blueprint
How the Agentic-development-dapps stack uses the Actor Model to build blockchain applications that can wake themselves up and finish the job.
one-of-us: The Rust Program Wearing a Solidity Mask
How Gear Foundation uses Ethereum blobs and auto-generated mirrors to run high-performance WASM logic inside the EVM ecosystem.
gear-foundation/argocd-workflow: The Synchronous Contract for GitOps
Moving beyond "fire and forget" deployments with centralized gatekeeping and real-time health loops.
ai-code-gen: Teaching LLMs the Language of Vara: Inside the Gear AI Code Gen
How a modular multi-agent system uses "few-shot" orchestration to bridge the gap between general AI and specialized Web3 infrastructure.
Beyond the Transaction: How Vara-DApp-Patterns Turns Smart Contracts into Autonomous Actors
Exploring the asynchronous, self-scheduling, and signless patterns that bring Web2-grade UX to the Vara Network.
Vara-AMM: High-Concurrency Trading in the Actor Model
Moving beyond the synchronous global lock to build a decentralized exchange that scales like a distributed system.
zk-mental-poker: Solving the 45-Year-Old Dealer Problem
How the Gear Foundation uses Bandersnatch curves and the Actor Model to build a trustless, high-speed deck that no one can peek at.
vara-eth-cross-ping: The 20-Minute Handshake: Architecting for Asynchronous Trust
How Vara uses ZK-inclusion proofs to bridge the gap between Wasm actors and the EVM without a middleman.
cross-ping: The Asymmetric Bridge Between Wasm Actors and EVM
A masterclass in bidirectional messaging using ZK-proofs, Light Clients, and the Actor Model to link the Vara Network with Ethereum.
vara-eth-demo: The Asynchronous Remote for Ethereum
Offloading heavy compute to a parallel WASM runtime without leaving the EVM.
x402-vara-next-facilitator: The High-Speed Clearinghouse for the Agentic Web
Resurrecting HTTP 402 to replace brittle API keys with autonomous, sub-second settlement on the Vara Network.
0xTrace and the Decoupled Privacy Layer
By offloading stealth metadata to the Vara Network, 0xTrace solves the "Announcement Problem" that has plagued Ethereum’s native privacy standards.
v-starship: The Actor Model Goes to War
How Gear’s Sails framework turns the blockchain into a high-speed backend for real-time arcade dogfights.
x402-vara: Resurrecting HTTP 402 for the Agentic Economy
A stateless protocol for machine-to-machine commerce that turns API calls into verifiable blockchain settlements.
Beyond the Prompt: How vara-skills Turns AI Agents into Protocol Experts
The Gear Foundation is replacing traditional documentation with a machine-readable "Skill Pack" that orchestrates the entire dApp lifecycle.
