Yield scanning
The DeFi Yields agent scans 1,000+ liquidity pools and lending markets across Base protocols to find the best risk-adjusted yield opportunities. Results are score-ranked and come with one-click deposit execution.
How to use
"What are the best yield opportunities on Base right now?""Find low-risk stablecoin yields above 5% APY""Compare lending rates across Base protocols"
Result panel: DefiYieldResultPanel
The result renders as a paginated card list (3 opportunities per page):
Per opportunity
| Element | Description |
|---|
| Pool name | Token pair or single asset name |
| Project | Protocol name (Aerodrome, Morpho, Aave, Compound, etc.) |
| APY | Annual percentage yield, color-coded by tier |
| TVL | Total value locked in the pool |
| Risk score | AI-assessed risk level |
| Stablecoin flag | Whether the pool involves only stablecoins (lower IL risk) |
| IL risk | Impermanent loss risk indicator |
| Execution button | Opens pool details or triggers inline deposit |

One-click deposits
When you select an opportunity, the agent prepares an inline deposit:
For Morpho vaults → MorphoDepositInline:
- Shows: amount, vault name, APY
- Steps: Check balance → Approve USDC → Deposit → Done
- Uses
useMorphoDeposit() hook
For Aave/Compound → DefiDepositInline:
- Shows: amount, protocol name, APY
- Steps: Check balance → Approve USDC → Deposit → Done
- Uses
useDefiInvest() hook
Each deposit shows multi-step progress with checkmarks, spinners, and transaction hash links.
Protocols covered
| Protocol | Type | Assets |
|---|
| Morpho | Lending/Borrowing | USDC, ETH, wstETH vaults with curated strategies |
| Aave V3 | Lending | USDC, ETH, WBTC, and other major assets |
| Compound III | Lending | USDC supply market |
| Aerodrome | DEX LP | Various pairs on Base |
| Moonwell | Lending | USDC, ETH, and others on Base |
Yield scanning focuses on Base chain protocols. Cross-chain yield discovery is available through the Delphi agent in the Dashboard, which supports Base, Ethereum, Polygon, and Optimism.
Sort by risk-adjusted return, not raw APY. A 15% APY on a stablecoin pool with $50M TVL is usually a better risk/reward than a 200% APY on a new pool with $100K TVL. The AI’s scoring reflects this.
