Overview
The CEX_CAPITAL strategy (strategyType = 3) uses a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) to securely execute trading orders on a centralised exchange, and a Groth16 zkVM proof to verifiably attest the final balance on-chain.
As a Provider for CEX_CAPITAL jobs, your workflow has two phases:
Phase A — Client Client creates the TEE job and funds it. No action required from you.
Phase B — Provider Submit signed buy/sell orders to the TEE gateway while the job is in FUNDED state.
Phase C — Provider Once TEE closes, call ACPCore.submit() on-chain with the deliverable hash.
Prerequisites
Requirement Details Agent NFT Must hold a valid ERC-721 Agent NFT (agentId) Stake TermiXStaking.deposit(agentId, amount) — minimum 100 USDCSet as Provider Client must call ACPCore.setProvider(jobId, agentId) PROVIDER_KEYPrivate key of the Agent NFT owner — used for EIP-191 order signatures
Phase B — Submit Trading Orders
B.1 Query TEE Job Status
Check the current state before placing orders. Proceed only when state = "ready" or "active".
GET https://termix-backend.dev.termix.click/api/v1/tee/jobs/{jobId}/status
{
"data" : {
"state" : "ready" ,
"deadline" : 1776418834 ,
"current_total_usdt" : 1000.0 ,
"trade_count" : 3 ,
"stop_loss_triggered" : false
}
}
TEE states: ready | active | expiring | closed
B.2 Construct Order and Sign (EIP-191)
Fields must be serialised in canonical order before signing — any deviation returns 401.
import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts" ;
// Field order is strict — DO NOT change
const CANONICAL_FIELDS = [ "action" , "job_id" , "nonce" , "order_type" , "price" , "quantity" , "symbol" ];
function canonicalizeIntent ( intent : object ) : string {
const obj : Record < string , unknown > = {};
for ( const key of CANONICAL_FIELDS ) {
const v = ( intent as Record < string , unknown >)[ key ];
obj [ key ] = v === undefined ? null : v ;
}
return JSON . stringify ( obj );
}
const provider = privateKeyToAccount ( process . env . PROVIDER_KEY as `0x ${ string } ` );
const intent = {
job_id: jobId ,
action: "BUY" , // "BUY" | "SELL"
symbol: "BTCUSDT" ,
quantity: 0.001 ,
order_type: "MARKET" ,
price: null ,
nonce: Date . now (), // ms timestamp — replay protection
};
const message = canonicalizeIntent ( intent );
const signature = await provider . signMessage ({ message });
( intent as any ). provider_signature = signature ;
import json, time, os
from eth_account import Account
from eth_account.messages import encode_defunct
CANONICAL_FIELDS = [ "action" , "job_id" , "nonce" , "order_type" , "price" , "quantity" , "symbol" ]
def canonicalize ( intent : dict ) -> str :
obj = {k: intent.get(k, None ) for k in CANONICAL_FIELDS }
return json.dumps(obj, separators = ( "," , ":" ))
def sign_message ( private_key : str , message : str ) -> str :
msg = encode_defunct( text = message)
return "0x" + Account.sign_message(msg, private_key = private_key).signature.hex()
intent = {
"job_id" : job_id,
"action" : "BUY" ,
"symbol" : "BTCUSDT" ,
"quantity" : 0.001 ,
"order_type" : "MARKET" ,
"price" : None ,
"nonce" : int (time.time() * 1000 ),
}
intent[ "provider_signature" ] = sign_message(os.environ[ "PROVIDER_KEY" ], canonicalize(intent))
B.3 POST Order to TEE
POST /api/v1/tee/jobs/{jobId}/orders
Content-Type: application/json
{
"job_id" : "0xb20d5e...",
"action" : "BUY",
"symbol" : "BTCUSDT",
"quantity" : 0.001,
"order_type" : "MARKET",
"price" : null,
"nonce" : 1713340800000,
"provider_signature" : "0x<EIP-191 signature>"
}
{
"state" : "active" ,
"post_trade_total_usdt" : 998.5 ,
"stop_loss_triggered" : false
}
If stop_loss_triggered returns true, stop placing orders immediately and proceed to Phase C.
B.4 Reference Scripts
# Python — interactive trader
export PROVIDER_KEY = 0x < private_key >
python3 packages/backend/scripts/tee_trader.py < jobI d >
# TypeScript — single order
export PROVIDER_KEY = 0x < private_key >
npx tsx packages/backend/scripts/tee-provider.ts < jobI d > BUY BTCUSDT 0.001
Phase C — On-chain submit() After TEE Closes
C.1 Wait for TEE to Close
The TEE automatically liquidates all positions when the deadline is reached and sets state = "closed". Poll until you see this:
GET /api/v1/tee/jobs/{jobId}/status
# → { "state": "closed", "enclave_signature": "0x..." }
C.2 Call ACPCore.submit()
Compute deliverableHash = keccak256(enclave_signature + "|" + final_balance), then call submit(). The on-chain deadline must also have elapsed.
TypeScript
Python (auto-submit)
import { keccak256 , toHex } from "viem" ;
const status = await fetchTeeStatus ( jobId );
const deliverableHash = keccak256 (
toHex ( ` ${ status . enclave_signature } | ${ status . current_total_usdt } ` )
);
const txHash = await client . writeContract ({
address: ACP_CORE ,
abi: ACP_CORE_ABI ,
functionName: "submit" ,
args: [ jobId as `0x ${ string } ` , deliverableHash ],
});
# Auto-polls TEE status and calls submit() once state=closed
export PROVIDER_KEY = 0x < private_key >
python3 packages/backend/scripts/settle_job.py < jobI d >
