thirdweb AI - Auto Execution
We’ve introduced Auto Execution to the /ai/chat endpoint.
When enabled, the AI will not only prepare transactions, swaps, or deployments — it will automatically execute them on behalf of the authenticated user or server wallet.
This dramatically reduces friction: no extra signing steps, no manual execution flows. Just describe what you want done, and it happens.
How it works
Enable Auto Execution by setting the flag in the context object:
"context": {
"from": "0x...", // the wallet address that will perform the transaction
"chain_ids": [1], // optional, but recommended
"auto_execute_transactions": true // enable auto execution
}
If the auto execute flag is false, or no "from" address is passed in, thirdweb AI will return the prepared transactions to be signed manually like before.
Authentication
Auto execution requires wallet authentication:
- User wallets → pass
Authorization: Bearer <user-jwt> - Server wallets → pass your project
x-secret-key

- “Give me the transaction receipt”
- “Show me the explorer link”
