aelf (styled lowercase by the company, listed on the secondary market as "Aelf Inc") is a Singapore-headquartered AI-enhanced, cloud-native layer-1 blockchain network founded in 2017. It is written in C# with a modular multi-side-chain architecture, parallel transaction execution and built-in cross-chain communication. Its public machine-readable surface is the AElf node Web API — an OpenAPI 3.0.1 contract every node serves at /swagger/v1/swagger.json and reachable anonymously on the public mainnet nodes — alongside 89 published protobuf contract definitions (the ACS contract standards, plus the gRPC peer and cross-chain services), six first-party chain SDKs, the aelf-command CLI, and a first-party agent layer of packaged Agent Skills and a local MCP server.
