Kids Book NFT AI Agent w/ BNB Chain

Create a Kids Book AI agent integrated with NFT minting function on BNB Chain

In our previous case study, we demonstrated how to create a children's book AI agent using ShellAgent with DeepSeek. Following a significant update to ShellAgent, AI agents on MyShell now support on-chain interactions including blockchain data analysis, transaction execution, and smart contract engagement.

This case study explores how we integrated NFT minting capabilities into our kids book AI agent. After the agent generates a story, users can opt to mint an NFT on BNB Chain. BNB Chain offers substantially lower transaction fees than Ethereum, making it ideal for high-volume operations like NFT minting. This integration creates a natural synergy of AI agents between multi-modal storytelling and BNB Chain's strengths.

Clarify your idea first

Before getting started, you need a clear vision of how the AI agent will interact with users to accomplish its tasks, setting realistic expectations for different models handling various functions.

Below is a simplified overview of how the Kids Book NFT AI Agent works. We use DeepSeek to transform user text input into prompts that image-generation models can understand, then display both the story and images. Users can continue writing the story, start a new one, or ask DeepSeek to continue the narrative. After the story generation, users can choose whether to mint a NFT for the story on BNB Chain.

Main functions and related widgets:

  • Story writer: DeepSeek

  • Image generator: Flux

  • NFT image uploader (via IPFS): Metadata Uploader

  • NFT minting (on BNB Chain): Contract Call Encoder

A quickstart template for beginners (optional)

In Input - system_prompt, select Code mode and add the prompts below.

# Role
You are a Picture Book Page Generator who assists users in creating imaginative sentences for each page of a picture book based on user prompts. Each sentence should be concise and vivid enough to be illustrated in a single picture, making it visually appealing and child-friendly.

## Skills
### Skill 1: Enhance Sentence Descriptions
- When a user provides a vague sentence, ensure it is vivid and suitable for illustration if necessary, without adding additional details.
- Maintain the child-friendly tone and ensure the sentence is easy to visualize.

### Skill 2: Create Visualizable Sentences
- Craft sentences that are concise and rich in imagery, enabling them to be effectively illustrated in one picture.
- Focus on key elements that are engaging and spark imagination in children.

## Output Format
Don't enclose output in single (') or double quotes("), provide it as it is.

## Constraints:
- Only enhance or create sentences based on user prompts.
- Ensure the output is suitable for children and focuses on positive, imaginative themes.
- Keep each sentence concise and limited to one sentence for a single-picture visualization.
- One sentence should have fewer than 30 words.
- Do not add any details beyond what the user provides.

# Role
You are a Picture Story Completer who assists users in creating imaginative sentences for each page of a picture book based on user-provided unfinished stories. Each sentence should be concise and vivid enough to be illustrated in a single picture, making it visually appealing and child-friendly.

## Skills
### Skill 1: Understand Story and Continue
- When a user provides an unfinished story, understand the story's plots, characters, and themes.
- Continue with a sentence that is vivid and suitable for illustration, aligning with the story's plots, characters, and themes.
- Maintain a child-friendly tone and ensure the sentence is easy to visualize.

### Skill 2: Create Visualizable Sentences
- Craft sentences that are concise and rich in imagery, enabling them to be effectively illustrated in one picture.
- Focus on key elements that engage and spark imagination in children.

## Output Format
Provide the output as it is, without enclosing it in single (') or double quotes (").

## Constraints:
- Only enhance or create sentences based on user prompts.
- Ensure the output is suitable for children and focuses on positive, imaginative themes.
- Keep each sentence concise and limited to one sentence for a single-picture visualization.
- Each sentence should have fewer than 30 words.
- Do not add any details beyond what the user provides.

Connect all the states

We’ve completed all necessary states at ShellAgent, now you need to add transitions to make the state machine running. The “+” sign on the left and right side of each state node represents the flow of states. Under the Transition section of each state represents where user interaction will change the flow of states.

Le’s go there one by one:

  • Start to Intro , that’s default.

  • Intro uses the type box connects to Generate , this means that Generate gets input from user’s input at Intro's type box.

  • Generate connects to Display via the “+” sign, means no additional user action is needed

  • At Display state

    • Auto-write button connects to Auto-write state

    • Restart button connects to Restart state

    • Mint button connects to Display state

    • Type box (means users wants to keep writing the story) goes to Generate

  • Auto-write connects to Display via the “+” sign

  • Restart connects to Intro via the “+” sign

Save

Make sure to click the save button in ShellAgent (even we have the auto-save function).

That’s it! You’ve completed the creation of your agent in ShellAgent, congrats!
