Tether Expands Wallet Development Kit to Support AI Agent Integration

Tether has updated its Wallet Development Kit (WDK) to include a command-line interface and Model Context Protocol (MCP) support, enabling AI agents to manage self-custodial wallets. This allows AI software to perform tasks such as checking balances and preparing transactions through the same daemon used by human operators. While the tools facilitate automated payments and financial interactions, Tether warns that the software is in beta and emphasizes the need for strict permission controls to manage the security risks associated with AI-driven fund transfers.
