Hackathon: Cypherpunk - ASI Agents Track Sponsor: Artificial Superintelligence Alliance Deadline: October 31, 2025 Prize Pool: $20,000 USDC

MediChain AI is a decentralized healthcare diagnostic system that combines Fetch.ai's autonomous agents with SingularityNET's MeTTa knowledge graphs to provide accurate, explainable medical assessments accessible through ASI:One chat interface.

Problem Statement: Medical misdiagnosis affects 12 million Americans annually, leading to $40 billion in healthcare costs and thousands of preventable deaths. Current solutions lack transparency, scalability, and 24/7 accessibility.

Solution: Multi-agent diagnostic system with transparent MeTTa-powered reasoning that analyzes symptoms, identifies conditions with evidence-based recommendations, and provides explainable diagnostic chains showing "why" behind every diagnosis. Features comprehensive input validation for safety (emergency detection, mental health crisis support) and professional UX (greetings, clarifications, boundary setting).

Impact: Democratizes access to preliminary medical diagnosis through AI agents, providing 24/7 assessment with transparent reasoning, evidence-linked treatments, appropriate urgency classification, and safety-first validation to guide patients to timely care.

Comprehensive 14-Scenario Edge Case Handler - Production-Ready Safety & UX

MediChain AI validates ALL user input before diagnostic processing, ensuring safety, clear boundaries, and professional user experience.

🚨 CRITICAL (Safety-First):

1. Emergency Detection → Immediate 911 guidance
   • Keywords: "chest pain", "can't breathe", "severe bleeding", "unconscious"
   • Response: Clear emergency steps, don't wait for analysis
2. Mental Health Crisis → Crisis hotline resources
   • Keywords: "suicide", "self-harm", "want to die"
   • Response: 988 (Suicide Prevention), Crisis Text Line, 911
3. Prescription Requests → Clear boundaries
   • Keywords: "prescribe", "give me antibiotics"
   • Response: AI cannot prescribe, guide to doctor

⚠️ IMPORTANT (UX & Safety): 4. Proxy Symptoms → Pediatric caution for children 5. Session History → Privacy explanation (no memory) 6. Self-Diagnosis → Acknowledgment + verification

✅ NICE-TO-HAVE (User Experience): 7. Greetings → Welcome + guidance 8. Gibberish/Testing → System check confirmation 9. Pet Symptoms → Veterinary referral 10. Off-Topic → Redirect to medical focus 11. Meta Questions → System capabilities 12. Vague Input → Request specifics 13. Insufficient Info → Guidance template 14. Valid Medical → Proceed to diagnostic flow

• ✅ Confidence Scoring: Each validation includes confidence level (0.0-1.0)
• ✅ Zero False Negatives: Safety-critical scenarios never missed
• ✅ Flexible Detection: "my 5-year-old daughter" correctly identified as proxy
• ✅ Professional Guidance: Tailored response templates for all scenarios

Problem: Agent won't start / Port conflict

Error: Address already in use: ('0.0.0.0', 8000)

Solution:

• Change port in agent initialization: Agent(port=8001) (use 8001-8010)
• Or kill existing process: lsof -ti:8000 | xargs kill -9

Problem: Mailbox registration fails

ERROR: Failed to register mailbox

Solution:

1. Verify AGENTVERSE_API_KEY in .env is correct
2. Check internet connectivity
3. Ensure agent has unique seed phrase
4. Restart agent after fixing .env

Problem: Agent not appearing in Agentverse dashboard

Agent shows "Inactive" or not listed

Solution:

1. Create mailbox via Agentverse Inspector (REQUIRED):
   • Start agent locally with mailbox=True
   • Open inspector URL from logs
   • Click "Connect" → Select "Mailbox" → "OK, got it"
2. Verify agent logs show: Successfully registered as mailbox agent
3. Check dashboard: https://agentverse.ai/agents

Problem: Agent not discoverable on ASI:One

Cannot find agent when searching on asi1.ai

Solution:

1. Verify Chat Protocol included: agent.include(chat_proto, publish_manifest=True)
2. Check agent profile shows "AgentChatProtocol" at: https://agentverse.ai/agents/details/{ADDRESS}/profile
3. Wait 5-10 minutes for indexing after first deployment

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'hyperon'

Solution:

pip install hyperon>=0.1.0
# Or reinstall all dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt

Problem: Knowledge base not loading

Warning: Knowledge base not found at ./data/knowledge_base.metta

Solution:

1. Verify file exists: ls -la data/knowledge_base.metta
2. Check METTA_KB_PATH in .env points to correct location
3. Ensure file has read permissions: chmod 644 data/knowledge_base.metta

Problem: MeTTa query returns empty results

conditions = engine.find_by_symptom("fever")
# Returns: []

Solution:

1. Verify symptom names use hyphens: "fever" not "fever_symptom"
2. Check knowledge base loaded: look for startup message Successfully loaded knowledge base
3. Test basic query: engine.query("!(match &self (has-symptom $c fever) $c)")

Problem: Tests fail with import errors

ImportError: cannot import name 'SymptomExtractor' from 'src.agents.patient_intake'

Solution:

# Ensure PYTHONPATH includes project root
export PYTHONPATH="${PYTHONPATH}:$(pwd)"

# Or use pytest with explicit path
pytest tests/ --verbose

Problem: Asyncio errors in tests

RuntimeError: Event loop is closed

Solution:

• Ensure pytest.ini has: asyncio_mode = auto
• Install pytest-asyncio: pip install pytest-asyncio

Problem: Coverage report not generated

WARNING: No data was collected

Solution:

# Install coverage plugin
pip install pytest-cov

# Run with explicit source
pytest --cov=src --cov-report=term-missing tests/

Problem: Missing environment variables

KeyError: 'COORDINATOR_ADDRESS'

Solution:

1. Copy template: cp .env.example .env
2. Deploy agents to get addresses
3. Update .env with generated agent addresses
4. Restart agents after updating .env

Problem: Virtual environment not activated

Command 'python' not found or wrong version

Solution:

# Activate venv (macOS/Linux)
source venv/bin/activate

# Activate venv (Windows)
venv\Scripts\activate

# Verify Python version
python --version  # Should show 3.9+

Problem: Coordinator can't reach specialist agents

ERROR: Failed to send message to agent1q...

Solution:

1. Verify all agent addresses in .env are correct
2. Ensure all agents are running (check each terminal)
3. Verify agents use mailbox=True for Agentverse routing
4. Check agent logs for connection errors

Problem: Message protocol validation errors

ValidationError: 1 validation error for DiagnosticRequest

Solution:

1. Ensure Pydantic models match protocol definitions in src/protocols/messages.py
2. Verify all required fields are provided
3. Check data types match model definitions
4. Use .dict() or .model_dump() when sending messages

Problem: Tests run slowly (>30 seconds)

109 tests passed in 45.23s

Solution:

1. Run specific test files: pytest tests/test_patient_intake.py
2. Skip slow tests: pytest -m "not slow"
3. Use pytest-xdist for parallel execution: pytest -n auto

Problem: Agent responses are slow (>10 seconds)

Response time: 15.2 seconds

Solution:

1. Check MeTTa query complexity - simplify if needed
2. Verify knowledge base size is reasonable (<10MB)
3. Profile code: python -m cProfile src/agents/coordinator.py
4. Consider caching frequent queries

1. Check Logs: Agent logs are in /tmp/{agent_name}_mailbox.log
2. Review Documentation: See docs/ folder for detailed guides
3. Test Locally First: Use pytest tests/ before deploying
4. Agentverse Inspector: Use inspector for real-time debugging
5. Community Support:
   • Fetch.ai Discord: https://discord.gg/fetchai
   • Hackathon Contact: https://t.me/prithvipc
   • GitHub Issues: Create issue with error logs and steps to reproduce

Enable verbose logging:

# In agent file
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

# Or via environment variable
LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG python src/agents/coordinator.py
