Goldsky-Kite AI

Index Kite AI with Goldsky for high-performance blockchain data infrastructure

Overview

Goldsky provides high-performance blockchain data infrastructure for Kite AI, making it easy to extract, transform, and serve on-chain data for both production apps and analytics workloads.

For Kite AI builders, Goldsky is the recommended indexing layer for:

• dApps and dashboards

• Agent analytics and observability

• Protocol monitoring and data pipelines

• Real-time and historical on-chain queries

Goldsky supports two primary data access models:

• Subgraphs – High-performance, GraphQL-based indexing

• Mirror – Real-time replication pipelines into databases and warehouses

Indexing Kite AI with Subgraphs

Subgraphs are the most common way to index Kite AI contracts and events.

Goldsky supports two deployment paths, depending on how much control you need.

Option 1: Deploy a Custom Subgraph (Full Control)

Use this option if you want:

• Custom schemas

• Derived entities

• Complex mappings or transformations

Requirements:

• subgraph.yaml

• schema.graphql

• Mapping files (AssemblyScript)

Deploy command:

goldsky subgraph deploy <name>/<version> --path .

Option 2: Instant Subgraphs (Quick Start)

Use instant subgraphs if you want:

• Fast setup

• Minimal configuration

• Event-level indexing from an ABI

You only need:

• Contract address

• ABI file

Deploy command:

goldsky subgraph deploy <name>/<version> \
  --from-abi <ABI_PATH> \
  --network <CHAIN_SLUG>

Goldsky automatically generates:

• subgraph.yaml

• Schema

• Event mappings

Kite AI Network Configuration

Use the following chain slugs when deploying subgraphs for Kite AI:

Network	Chain Slug
Kite AI Mainnet	kite-ai
Kite AI Testnet	kite-ai-testnet

These slugs are required for:

• Subgraph deployments

• Instant subgraphs

• Mirror pipelines

Common Kite AI Use Cases

Builders commonly use Goldsky on Kite AI for:

• Agent payment flows & settlement tracking

• ERC-20 / native token analytics

• Protocol-level metrics (TPS, volume, usage)

• Explorer backends & dashboards

• Agent reputation, activity, and lifecycle analytics

Goldsky pairs especially well with agent-native apps that require:

• Low-latency reads

• Deterministic historical queries

• Scalable analytics without running infra
