Short answer

How can I use AI to manage PKP wallets?

Your AI uses Lit Protocol tools to spin up new Programmable Key Pairs and sort them into specific access groups. You get a fully automated way to handle decentralized identity without manual wallet setup. This breakdown shows how the AI executes those tasks.

The results

What your AI delivers

Depending on your instructions, your AI produces one of these four outcomes.

IDENTITY

New PKP wallets

The AI generates unique Programmable Key Pairs on demand. You get fresh, decentralized identities ready for use.

GROUPS

Organized access

The AI creates and manages access groups. This keeps your identities categorized and easy to govern.

MAPPING

Wallet assignments

Your AI links specific wallets to specific groups. This ensures the right identities have the right permissions.

HUMAN

Manual oversight

You retain control over high-level logic and security policies. The AI handles the execution, but you decide the rules.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The AI translates your natural language instructions into specific Lit Protocol actions.

  1. Generate wallets

    The AI creates new Programmable Key Pairs to establish new identities.

    create_wallet

  2. Audit existing assets

    The AI pulls a list of all currently active wallets to check your inventory.

    list_wallets

  3. Set up permissions

    The AI builds new access groups to define how identities interact with resources.

    add_group

  4. Assign identities

    The AI places specific wallets into the groups you've defined to finalize access control.

    add_pkp_to_group

  • Create a new PKP wallet for my decentralized identity project.

  • List all my current wallets so I can see what's active.

  • Create a new access group called 'Admin-Access' and add my new wallet to it.

  • Show me all the existing groups I have set up.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI delete a PKP wallet?

    No. The AI can only create, list, and manage group assignments. Deleting a wallet is a manual action you must perform.

  • 02

    Can the AI change the permissions of an existing group?

    No. The AI can add groups or add wallets to groups, but it cannot modify the underlying logic of a group once it is created.

  • 03

    Does the AI see my private keys?

    No. The AI interacts with the Lit Protocol via the provided tools to manage the PKPs, but it never has access to your private keys.

  • 04

    How do I know if a wallet was successfully created?

    The AI will confirm the action once the tool execution is complete. You can also ask it to list your wallets to verify the new one is there.

  • 05

    Can I use this to manage standard Ethereum wallets?

    No. This specific workflow is designed for Programmable Key Pairs (PKPs) within the Lit Protocol ecosystem.
