Felix agent security
Over the past 8 months, a series of exploits, multiple likely using frontier AI models to find frontend and smart contract-level vulnerabilities in DeFi apps, have altered the DeFi risk landscape gravely. This has led to a clear re-underwriting of acceptable DeFi risk and yield profiles. To combat this threat, Felix Labs has been putting in place what we are terming for now our agent security system.
Concretely, this means:
• Every code change is reviewed by the latest available frontier models before deployment, alongside our existing audit and human review process.
• Ongoing model-driven review of the deployed Felix codebase and our OpSec processes, re-run as newer models become available.
• Reviews operating alongside our existing monitoring systems covering both system risk and collateral risk.
No security system is a guarantee. However, what this does accomplish is 1) meaningfully raise the cost for a malicious actor and 2) adds a detection layer that improves with every model generation.
Risk and security continue to be our priority #1 at Felix. Offering the best yields to Hyperliquid lenders and the best capital efficiency to borrowers are both key value propositions but secondary if protocol solvency is not first in check. Feel free to reach out if interested in hearing more on our systems.
