Coinbase for Agents connects your Coinbase account to the agent you already use, like ChatGPT, Muse, or Grok. Once connected, your agent can check markets, review your portfolio, and place trades on Coinbase. Coinbase doesn't make decisions for you; your agent acts on your instructions.

Most popular agent apps and tools, including Claude, Cursor, Grok, Perplexity, Hermes, and Muse. Any tool that supports MCP (Model Context Protocol) can connect, and you can use the Coinbase CLI wherever the MCP is not supported.

Add Coinbase to your agent app, sign in with your Coinbase account, and choose what your agent can access. Most setups take a few minutes and need no code or API keys. You'll need a Coinbase account to connect. See the setup guide.

You decide what your agent can do, and Coinbase enforces it.

• Approve every trade, or don't. Most agent apps let you require approval before each trade. You can change this any time.

• Limits Coinbase enforces. Every agent trade runs within Coinbase's safety limits, and your agent can never send funds off Coinbase.

• Keep it separate. Give your agent its own portfolio so it only trades the funds you move into it.

• Disconnect any time. One tap ends your agent's access.

There's no extra fee for Coinbase for Agents. Your agent's trades pay the same standard Coinbase fees as your own.

It depends on your agent app. Chat apps usually act only while you're in the conversation. Some tools can run scheduled tasks, like a weekly rebalance or a Monday briefing, within the limits you set.

No. Coinbase for Agents connects your own agent to your Coinbase account. It doesn't recommend trades or give investment advice, and every decision is yours. Looking for guidance? Try Coinbase Advisor.

Bots need code and follow fixed scripts. Your agent takes plain-language instructions, can research and trade in the same conversation, and adapts as you refine what you want.
