The paper surveys the growing use of AI agents that modify external state via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) ecosystem, noting an increase from 27% to 65% of tool use. It argues that when such agents operate on public blockchains, the blockchain execution layer’s properties—irreversibility, signing authority, continuous autonomy, and sequence-level composition—reshape the threat model, making failures irreversible. The authors organize existing MCP-security literature into an attack-surface taxonomy, present a Web3 risk-mapping matrix linking attack classes to amplified impacts and mitigations, and conclude that current defenses are inadequate, stopping fewer than 30% of attacks and less than 3% of model-level safety failures.
whyItMatters":"The study highlights that AI agents acting on Web3 introduce irreversible risks that conventional software security cannot address, underscoring the need for stronger, blockchain-aware safeguards."

LEDGER is a tracing and review system for large language model agents that constructs layered trace graphs from observed sessions. It groups raw trace records into Evidence Nodes and Workflow Nodes, anchors artifacts as evidence, and adds typed semantic edges linking claims to supporting actions, artifacts, and checks. The resulting traces reveal workflow decisions, artifact lineage, repair steps, validation coverage, and claim‑support paths for evidence‑centered audit.
