Definition
An airdrop eligibility checklist is a dated record of criteria published by the project, mapped to actions on the wallet you already use. Rumors stay off the checklist. The agent must refuse any request to split wallets or disguise activity.
Who it is for
People who use one wallet for a program and want a record of public rules versus chatter.
Job to be done
Maintain a checklist of official criteria, what you have done against them, and what is still a rumor.
Human gate. You decide whether the next action is worth the fee and the inventory. The agent does not tell you that you will receive an allocation.
Inputs and outputs
Inputs
- The official criteria page or in-app rule, with the date you opened it
- The single wallet you already use for this program
- Actions you have already taken, from your own notes or history
- A spend cap for fees, slippage, and inventory you might get stuck with
Outputs
- Criteria tagged verified, not done, or not applicable
- A rumor list that cannot satisfy a criterion
- Cost so far versus the cap
- An explicit refusal if asked to propose extra wallets
Step-by-step workflow
- 01Capture the official textPaste the criteria and the URL and the date. If you cannot link it, it is not official yet.
- 02Map actions you already didOne wallet. Each action is a transaction you can point at or a task the app marks done.
- 03Split the rumor listAnything from a thread, a video, or "people are saying" goes there with the date you heard it.
- 04Add costFees, slippage, and inventory still held. Compare to the cap before any new task.
- 05Refuse evasion requestsIf the prompt asks for more wallets, sybil patterns, or identity tricks, the run ends with a refusal.
- 06Human gateYou choose the next task or you stop. No sentence in the checklist is an allocation forecast.
Suggested tool types
These are categories of tools, not product picks. Crypto Agent Desk does not certify vendors and does not run an affiliate program.
| Type | Why it is here |
|---|---|
| Project docs or in-app rules | The only source that can create a criterion. |
| Block explorer | Confirms a transaction you think you sent, on the wallet you named. |
| Chat model | Holds the checklist shape and separates rumors. It should not predict a payout. |
| Notes file | The checklist has to exist after the chat is gone. |
Risks and failure modes
Rumor promoted to rule
A widely repeated criterion is still a rumor until the project publishes it. Tag it and leave it off the checklist.
Implied allocation
Completing a public task is not a promise of tokens. The output should say that in plain text.
Wallet splitting
Requests to spread activity across wallets to look like more users are out of scope. The agent refuses and stops.
Operator notes
Eligibility notes rot into folklore. Date the official text, and keep the thread in a different list.
Two lists
Checklist: official criterion, status, evidence, cost. Rumor list: claim, where you saw it, date. The rumor list cannot check a box.
Prompt you can paste
Build an eligibility checklist for PROGRAM.
Official text and URL: OFFICIAL.
Date I opened it: DATE.
Wallet I already use (label only, no need to invent addresses): WALLET_LABEL.
Actions I already took: ACTIONS.
Spend cap: CAP. Cost so far: COST.
Put non-official claims on a rumor list.
Do not predict an allocation. If I ask for extra wallets or sybil tactics, refuse and stop.
Done when
Every box is tied to a sentence the project published, and the cost line is visible before you do the next task.
FAQ
Can the agent tell me if I will get the airdrop?
No. It can tell you whether a public criterion looks satisfied. Payout, timing, and filters the project has not published are unknown.
What counts as a source?
A page or screen the project controls, that you can reopen. A quote of a quote does not.
Should I keep going after the cap?
Not under this playbook. Raise the cap in writing if you mean to, before the next task, and record why.
