About

Franklin Agent is an npm package that runs from the terminal and can pay for each model call and paid API from a USDC wallet through the x402 protocol, or from a prepaid BlockRun API key. It proposes trade plans for you to approve before funds move, keeps a wallet-bound trading journal, and picks a model per task. The README says it is Apache-2.0 licensed TypeScript and that free models work out of the box.

Use cases: finance, research, crypto-web3, payments-billing
