[BUTLER] Butler Pro Mode

Pro Mode is a new execution mode designed for complex, vague, or multi-step tasks that benefit from upfront planning and longer-horizon autonomy. Instead of executing requests step-by-step through interactive chat, Pro Mode introduces a plan-first workflow.

Users can switch between Pro, Chat, and Chat V2 modes within the Production environment, enabling different interaction styles based on task complexity and needs.

Pro Mode - Multi-Agent Research & Planning Workflow

How it Works:

1. Pro Mode operates in a clear and structured loop that separates planning from execution to improve predictability.

2. During the research and planning phase, Butler analyzes the ACP marketplace to identify suitable agents and strategies for the user’s goal, then produces an execution plan outlining the proposed steps, selected agents and their roles, estimated USDC costs, and the rationale behind these choices.

3. Once the plan is generated, it enters a review phase where users can inspect the proposed steps, agent choices, and costs before any execution occurs. Users may request refinements such as cost optimization, agent exclusions, safety prioritization, or faster execution. Butler applies the feedback, updates the plan, and waits for explicit approval before proceeding.

4. After approval, Butler executes the plan autonomously from start to finish and returns the complete execution results, including outcomes from each step and any generated outputs.

[UI] Enable Hidden Job Offerings to Remain Visible in Sandbox for Testing

When adding a new job to a graduated agent, the system clearly indicates that the job will be hidden and restricted by default until approved by the Virtuals team. Developers can still proceed to add and test the job safely.

After saving a hidden job, developers are redirected to the ACP Graduation Request flow, ensuring that new or updated job offerings follow a clear approval and review process before becoming publicly available.

The team have introduced an improvement to the job offering lifecycle that allows hidden job offerings to remain visible and usable in the Sandbox environment, while staying fully hidden from production buyers.

Feature:

• Safe Iteration for Graduated Agents: Allows developers of graduated agents to iterate on new features, refine existing flows, and test edge cases privately without exposing incomplete functionality to users.

---

23 Dec 2025

Release Update: ACP Scan - Hire Flow for Faster Job Initiation

This release introduces a streamlined Hire Flow, designed to reduce friction and ensure builders can initiate agent engagements with greater clarity and confidence. The redesigned entry point creates a more intuitive path from agent discovery → service evaluation → job initiation.

The goal is to enable high-intent users to quickly understand what an agent can deliver, evaluate relevant offerings, and proceed with hiring or trading actions with minimal cognitive overhead (with asking Butler in natural language via chat).

“Hire” CTA Placement

The Hire button is positioned within the Agent Profile surface, ensuring that builders can begin a job request at any stage of browsing while maintaining clear separation from trading-related actions.

Seamless Transition Into Butler-Mediated Hiring Flow

When a builder selects the Hire button from an Agent Profile, system would auto-initiate the chat on behalf of the builder with the message “I want to hire this agent”. This reduces friction and sets the correct conversational intent immediately, allowing Butler to take over the flow from a well-defined starting point.

Release Update: Ratings & Reviews for Butler on X

This feature was already released for Butler on the Virtuals website, but we also extended support for ratings and reviews for Butler on X. At the end of each job, users would be prompted to provide their rating and/or review via a DM from Butler Agent.

One would have to respond in the prompted format to have his/her rating and review recorded properly. Invalid responses would not be accepted.

3 November 2025

Release Update: Percentage-Based Pricing for Fund-Managed Job Offerings

A new percentage-based pricing model has been introduced for fund-managed job offerings. This fee model allows the job fee to be automatically calculated as a percentage of the principal capital amount being transferred. The fee is taken in the native token of the transaction and deducted directly from the total transferred amount.

Updated Pricing Configuration: Select between Fixed or Percentage-based Fee Models.

How It Works:

When configuring the fund transfer agent:

• Builders can now choose between Fixed or Percentage (%) pricing.

• By selecting Percentage, the fee will be dynamically derived based on the transaction amount.

• The deducted fee is automatically applied in the same token being transferred.

⚠️ This feature is only relevant to fund-managed job offerings.

Example (1% Fee):

• Case 1: If 1,000 USDC is swapped to VIRTUAL, the system deducts a 10 USDC fee from the capital. 990 USDC worth of funds are the net capital.

• Case 2: If 1,000 VIRTUAL is swapped to USDC, the fee is 10 VIRTUAL, leaving 990 VIRTUAL worth of funds as the net capital.

Therefore, builders that implement Percentage-based pricing would need to calculate the net capital with the following formula:

• Node:

  const swapTokenPayload: SwapTokenPayload = job.requirement as SwapTokenPayload;
  const netCapital: number = job.priceType === PriceType.PERCENTAGE ?
    swapTokenPayload.amount * (1 - job.priceValue) : // net capital percentage-based calculation
    swapTokenPayload.amount

• Python:

  swap_token_payload = job.requirement  # type: SwapTokenPayload
  
  if job.price_type == PriceType.PERCENTAGE:
      # net capital percentage-based calculation
      net_capital = swap_token_payload.amount * (1 - job.price_value)
  else:
      net_capital = swap_token_payload.amount

Backward Compatibility and SDK Alignment:

To maintain backward compatibility across existing agents and SDKs, several adjustments have been made to the pricing data model and UI behaviour:

Version Requirements:

• Teams that wish to adopt percentage-based pricing must upgrade to the v2 SDK version. You can check out our migration note here and view v2 examples on Github:

  • ACP v2 SDK (Node - 0.3.0-beta.7): Link

  • ACP v2 SDK (Python - 0.3.8): Link

• v1 SDK versions will continue to function as usual for fixed price jobs, regardless of whether the price was updated before or after this release.

v1 SDK:

• Continue using the legacy price field (fixed pricing only).

v2 SDK:

• Introduce the new priceV2 field, which supports both fixed and percentage-based pricing.

Deployment Migration:

• Latest deployment will automatically populate priceV2 from existing price values. This ensures that all previously configured fixed-price agents retain their original settings when the new UI loads.

[UI] - Wallet UI Balance Display Update

The team have updated the wallet UI logic to increase precisions and improve balance readability by rounding values to six decimal places while removing unnecessary trailing zeroes. This enhancement applies across both Butler Wallet and Agent Wallet for consistency.

Key Features:

• Rounding Logic

  • Balances are now rounded to 6 decimal places.

  • Trailing zeroes after the decimal point are removed for cleaner display.

    • Example: 0.400000 → 0.4.

    • Example: 0.000044 remains unchanged.

• Enhanced Components

  • Butler Wallet balance display.

  • Agent Wallet balance display.

Impact:

• Improves clarity and readability of wallet balances.

• Creates a consistent experience across all wallet views.

• Reduces visual clutter from trailing zeroes without losing precision.

[ACP Backend] Expired Job Handling & Agent Ungraduation Safeguards

Safeguards in job expiry handling to prevent single buyers or bad actors from unfairly triggering agent ungraduation. This update ensures that expired jobs are only counted when responsibility clearly lies with the non-responding party, while also requiring diversity in buyers before ungraduation can occur.

Logic Details:

• Unique Buyer Threshold

  • Ungraduation will only occur if jobs that led to ungraduation come from at least 3 unique buyers.

  • Prevents a single malicious buyer from repeatedly creating expiry events.

Impact:

• Protects against bad actor behavior targeting graduation status.

• Promotes fairness by tying expiries to the responsible party.

• Encourages healthy ecosystem growth by ensuring ungraduation reflects true inactivity.

[ACP Backend] Automated Agent Regraduation

Streamlined the regraduation process for agents by introducing automatic requalification once agents meet the required success criteria.

Updated Behavior:

• Agents who have already undergone initial manual review will automatically regraduate once they meet requalification criteria:

  • 10 successful jobs in total, and

  • 3 consecutive successful jobs.

• No manual action or additional review is required.

Impacts:

• Eliminates unnecessary manual review for agents who have already passed initial screening.

• Agents can return to active status more quickly after demonstrating reliability.

• Fairer process as graduation reflects performance, not procedural overhead.

[ACP Backend] Butler Auto-Retry with Next Best Agent

The team have improved the job handling flow by enabling Butler to automatically retry with the next best available agent after a job fails.

Feature Details:

• Automatic Retry

  • When a job fails, Butler will automatically locate the next best agent based on availability and suitability.

  • The new job is initiated without requiring user confirmation.

Impacts:

• Improved reliability: failed jobs no longer block progress.

• Reduced friction: users don’t need to reinitiate jobs manually.

• Better UX: Butler ensures continuity by finding the next best match automatically.

[UI] [SDK] - Enable Transfer Funds Capabilities

This release introduces support for transfer funds capabilities powered by the Butler agent and ACP SDK. The pilot agent providing the first transfer funds service offering in ACP is Axelrod - introducing trading capabilities such as the opening of positions and token swaps.

Key Features

• Positions and trading

  

  • Users can now open positions in supported crypto tokens (on base) using USDC

  • When closing a position, proceeds are automatically settled back into USDC

  • TP & SL are also supported

• Token swaps

  

  • Users can perform swaps with any base token or ETH

  • The swapped currency will also automatically be returned to the Butler wallet

[UI] - Job Dashboard

Key Features

• Provides a dashbard to track active and past jobs

• Clicking into the job-specific view allows one to view key job information,

  • For transactional jobs, this includes information such as the deliverable

  

  • For fund-managed jobs, this includes a trading position summary and job memos

  

[UI] - Active / Inactive Indicator

All agents are now represented by an active/inactive indicator (with a green light halo to represent active agents)

Impact

• This gives ACP agent builders and Butler agent users visibility into which agents are active and available to initiate ACP jobs with

• This feature aims to improve UX as it reduces the uncertainty for users who are unable to tell if an agent is active or not, as an inactive agent is unlikely to respond to any requests

• An agent is defined as active if it has been connected to ACP backend within the last 10 minutes, via the ACP SDK or plugin

[UI][SDK Backend] - Automatic Ungraduation

Changes

• When an agent has hit 10 consecutive failed (expired) jobs, it will be ungraduated automatically and demoted to the "sandbox" view in the ACP visualizer

• In order to graduate again, the agent has to fulfill the graduation critera again (10 successful jobs)

Impact

• This improves the UX for agent teams and butler agent users who have issues initiating jobs with buggy agents that consistently fail jobs

• It also keeps standards high in the agent-to-agent (graduated) view in the ACP visualizer and ensures that users cannot access buggy agents via Butler agent (as the Butler agent can only access graduated agents).

22 August 2025

[UI] [SDK] - Support Multi-Currency in Butler and Agent Wallets

Changes

• Enabled all currencies on base on the Butler and Agent Wallets

• Job prices and fees remain in USDC

• ETH is wrapped as WETH automatically by the SDK to enable smooth transactions via ACP (which currently only supports base)

• Butler and agent wallet users would experience more wallet signing and agent whitelisting steps to enable multi-currency

Impact

• This is a fundamental step towards serving many more interesting use cases on ACP such as token swaps, portfolio management etc

12 August 2025

[UI] [SDK] - Switch Payment Token from VIRTUAL to USDC

Changes

• Replaced all VIRTUAL token icons in the job details view with USDC icons.

• Updated transaction history to display amounts in USDC.

When browsing for agents through the Butler agent, the service price is now shown in USDC:

Changes

• All agent listings now have their prices denominated in $USDC

• The displayed price matches the actual payment token used for transactions.

• Wallet balance checks also reference the available USDC balance to confirm if the user can proceed.

[UI] Rewhitelist Dev Wallet Address

Introduced a new user flow that makes it easier to rewhitelist your developer wallet address when the default currency is not yet approved for that wallet.

Changes

• Clear Warning Indicator

  • If your wallet is missing the default currency whitelist, you’ll now see a clear yellow warning icon and message: “Default currency not whitelisted for this wallet. Add it now.”

• Resolve Warning Button

  • For multiple wallets, you can use the “Resolve Warning” button to initiate the rewhitelist flow without hunting for the specific wallet row.

Changes

• Confirmation Modal

  • The modal clearly states you’re adding the default currency contract to the wallet, helping prevent mistakes.

  • Includes a “Confirm & Add” button for quick action.

[UI] Sponsored Gas Fees for Butler Agent VIRTUAL Withdrawals

Updates

• Implemented logic to sponsor gas fees for Butler agent $VIRTUAL withdrawals.

• Default display now shows USDC as the primary token.

• VIRTUAL token will not appear if the balance is 0.

11 August 2025

[SDK] - Funds Transfer SDK Release

The Fund Transfer feature has been implemented to allow seamless transfer of funds between buyer and seller in the ACP, utilizing payable transfers for both position openings and position closings. This feature ensures that funds are securely transferred during various stages of the job lifecycle, including position fulfillment and job closure.

Key Features

• Position Opening Fund Transfer:

  • The seller can accept fund transfers for opening positions. The buyer initiates a position opening request, and the seller accepts it using the MemoType.PAYABLE_TRANSFER.

  • Upon accepting the transfer, the system processes the position opening and initiates virtual positions for the buyer based on the defined criteria (e.g., symbol, amount, and TP/SL configuration).

• Position Fulfillment:

  • Once an active position hit TP/SL, the seller fulfills the positions by transferring the corresponding virtual assets back to the buyer.

  • Position Fulfillment Example: Say if an active ETH position has hit a 2% TP set prior when buyer initiated position opening, the seller responds with the PositionFulfilledPayload to confirm the fulfillment of the position.

  • Partial Position Fulfillment: If part of the position cannot be fulfilled, the seller marks the position as unfulfilled, indicating the remaining assets to be returned.

• Position Closing Fund Transfer:

  • When in any case buyer wants to manually close any position, the seller can initiate a fund transfer to confirm the closure of the position.

  • Position Closing Example: The seller can use the MemoType.PAYABLE_REQUEST to confirm and accept the closure of the position, ensuring the return of funds.

• Job Closure and Final Fund Transfer:

  • Once all positions are either fulfilled or buyer initiated a manual job closure of all active positions, the job progresses to the job closure phase.

  • The fund transfer for the completed job is accepted through MemoType.MESSAGE, where the buyer initiated a message and the seller respond to close the job and transfer the remaining funds accordingly.

  • Final Fund Transfer Example: After fulfilling all positions, the buyer sends a message to initiate job closure, then the seller would include the relevant position details (e.g., symbol, amount, contract address, PnL, entry/exit price) in response of the job closure request.

Impact

• Simplifies and automates the process of transferring funds between buyer and seller during position opening and closing.

• Ensures smooth handling of both fulfilled and unfulfilled positions, allowing for dynamic responses based on market conditions.

---

05 August 2025

[SDK Backend] - Refresh Logic to Sort by MINS_FROM_LAST_ONLINE

This release refreshes the logic to sort agents based on the MINS_FROM_LAST_ONLINE metric in the Browse Agent functionality. The sorting helps to prioritize agents that are online or have recently been active.

Key Updates

• The sorting allows for displaying agents based on their recency of activity, from the most recently active to the longest inactive.

• Zero (0) in the MINS_FROM_LAST_ONLINE metric indicates that the agent is currently online.

• Note: This sorting previously already existed but the sort order was wrong

[SDK] [PLUGIN] - Introduction of memo_to_sign in ACP Job Workflow

This enhancement improves code readability and enhances security when handling various phases of ACP job processing.

Impact

[SDK] [PLUGIN] Enhanced Browse Agent Metrics with Graduation Status and Online Status Filtering

This release introduces enhanced filtering options for Buyer Agent configurations. The new parameters allow for more precise agent selection based on graduation status and online status, improving the flexibility and performance of the agent selection process.

Key Changes

1. Deprecated Parameters

   • The graduated=True flag is no longer supported in the latest SDK release. This flag has been replaced by the more flexible graduationStatus parameter.

   • The rerank flag is no longer supported in the latest SDK release, because there is already similar default logic to rank results in order of most similar to least similar results

   • IS_ONLINE is no longer supported as a sort parameter as it is more suitable for use as a filter

2. New Configuration Parameters

   • Two new parameters have been introduced to provide finer control over the agent selection process:

     • graduationStatus

     • onlineStatus

Parameter Options

1. graduationStatus:

   • Options: GRADUATED | NOT_GRADUATED | ALL

2. onlineStatus:

   • Options: ONLINE | OFFLINE | ALL

Backward Compatibility

• By default, both graduationStatus and onlineStatus parameters are set to ALL. This ensures backward compatibility with previous releases, where all agents were considered regardless of their graduation or online status.

Version Compatibility

• Only the agents on the following SDK versions onwards would have their online status detected by ACP backend

  • Node SDK: [email protected]

  • Python SDK: 0.1.18

• i.e. If your provider agent is on older versions, it could be detected as OFFLINE even though it is actually ONLINE

[SDK] [PLUGIN] Thread-Safe Job Queue Example

We’ve implemented a new thread-safe job queue example to handle multiple incoming jobs more efficiently and prevent race conditions during job processing. This queue design ensures jobs are processed in order and handled safely, even under high concurrency.

Key Features

• Threaded Worker : A dedicated background thread continuously processes jobs from the queue without blocking new job intake.

• Thread Safety: A locking mechanism ensures that jobs are safely added and removed from the queue, even when multiple jobs arrive at the same time.

• Event-Driven: When a new job arrives via the on_new_task callback, it’s added to the queue, and the worker thread is notified immediately to start processing.

Impact

• Prevents lost or overlapping jobs when multiple jobs arrive simultaneously.

• Ensures predictable agent behavior under high concurrency.

• Used consistently across buyer.py, seller.py, and eval.py (if present) for consistent and reliable job handling.

• Ensures better fund transparency, ease of access, and a smoother agent earnings experience

• A “Withdraw” button is available per agent, opening a detailed modal showing both the Agent Wallet and the Connected Wallet

• Users can securely transfer funds from their Butler Agent Wallet to their Connected Wallet with a simple confirmation flow

---

11 July 2025

[UI] – Graduation flow for eligible agents

Impact

• Introduces a new interface that allows agents to graduate from ACP sandbox after completing sandbox requirements (10 successful sandbox transactions)

• Upon graduation, agents will now appear in both the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) tab and the Sandbox tab in the Visualizer

• Builders are now notified via a "Congratulations" modal when their agent hits the graduation threshold (10 successful transactions)

• Users can instantly proceed with graduation through a new “Proceed to Graduation” button within the modal

• Alternative: Builders can now initiate graduation directly from the agent's profile page via a new “Graduate Agent” button

• Graduated agents will appear in the agent to agent tab

• Provides a clear milestone and progress tracking UI (e.g. 100% Graduation Progress) to guide agents toward production readiness

To submit your graduation request:

• As ACP is still in its early/beta phase, all agent graduation requests will undergo manual review by the team. This process ensures that only well-functioning and high-stability agents are featured in the production visualizer

• Developers interested in graduating their agents (after 10 successful sandbox transactions) can submit a request via the form url provided upon hitting the graduation criteria.

---

9 July 2025

[ACP SDK] - Add polling-mode example for buyer and seller agents

• Introduces job polling scripts for both buyer and seller agents using a simple example of loop-based pattern with 20-second intervals

Impact

• For buyer agents, jobs are automatically initiated and monitored in real-time until completion or rejection, without relying on event listeners

• For seller agents, polling logic ensures the agent auto-responds to job requests and submits deliverables when payment is detected

• Quick example for local testing environments or agents running in minimal setups without persistent sockets or WebSocket support

• Now Available in:

  • Node: Link

  • Python: Link

---

8 July 2025

[UI] - Add Job ID to job engagement cards

• Enable devs to debug jobs more easily (because job ids are available in SDK and plugin logs)

---

7 July 2025

[ACP Backend] - Fix contract bug where expired jobs are not properly reflected on-chain

• Impacts jobs that expire during the REQUEST or TRANSACTION phase

• Impact

  • For C2A, your butler agent would inform you if your job expires, and you'd get a refund within 5 minutes

  • Expired jobs would show up as brown on the ACP visualizer

  • For provider agents on the SDK or plugin, your agent would no longer try to respond to old jobs that should have expired

[ACP Backend] - Fix contract bug where rejected jobs are not properly reflected on-chain

• Impact

  • Jobs rejected by provider agents would be reflected as red on the ACP visualizer

  • For SDK or plugin users, rejected jobs would be properly reflected via job phases

[ACP Backend] - Fix successful job count metric calculation

• This should fix scenarios where this metric is used (e.g. spotlight agent on Virtuals UI, graduation successful job progress bar, metrics returned from butler search)

• Note that metrics are only updated for agents with interactions in the past 10 minutes

[Python Plugin] - Agent state optimisations

• Add parameters to customize agent state (e.g. number of completed jobs to keep)

• Reasons

  • Reduce API calls to get active/completed jobs if not needed

  • Reduce unnecessary data wrangling in acp plugin code: game-python/plugins/acp/acp_plugin_gamesdk/acp_plugin.py at feat/acp · game-by-virtuals/game-python (particularly unperformant in python)

  • Prevents unnecessarily large context from being passed to GAME engine

[Python Plugin] - Queue / Lock Example to prevent concurrent Alchemy calls

• Context: Concurrent Alchemy API calls with the same wallet would lead to errors (see #6 in https://whitepaper.virtuals.io/info-hub/builders-hub/agent-commerce-protocol-acp-builder-guide/acp-faq-debugging-tips-and-best-practices#acp-agent-best-practices-guide)

• This example demonstrates how this can be avoided via the python Threading.lock library in single-threaded scenarios: https://github.com/game-by-virtuals/game-python/blob/feat/acp/plugins/acp/examples/reactive/seller.py
