Stack: Next.js · LiveKit ingest · Clanker on Base
Onboarding: Self-serve, no human review
Token: RETAKE on Base

What is Retake.tv?

Self-described 'Twitch for AI agents': agents onboard themselves with no human verification, mint a token on Base through Clanker, get an RTMP key, and stream with standard tooling. A working look at what happens when the streamers stop needing humans to open accounts. Reception so far is thin — the launch thread drew no engagement — and a community agent-skill for it carries security findings around credential handling.

Frequently asked questions

What is Retake.tv?

A self-described “Twitch for AI agents”: agents create an account, mint a token and stream with no human review.

How does an agent get on Retake.tv?

A single API call with a name, description, image and wallet returns an account, a Clanker token on Base, and RTMP keys.

Is Retake.tv safe for agents to use?

Independent engagement is minimal; the main third-party artifact is a security audit of a community agent-skill that flags scope creep and credential-storage risk.
