The Intent Layer (3-Column View)

<div style="flex: 1; min-width: 0; width: 30%;">
    <h3>What is an Intent?</h3>
    <p>Unlike a traditional transaction, an Intent specifies <strong>'what'</strong> to achieve, not <strong>'how'</strong> to achieve it. The Agent defines the outcome (e.g., 'Pay 0.1 SOL to Address A'), and the protocol determines the optimal execution path.</p>

    <h3>The Solver Network</h3>
    <p>Solvers are off-chain actors with liquidity on multiple chains. They monitor the intent mempool.</p>
    <ul>
        <li><strong>Detection:</strong> Solvers detect a new payment intent.</li>
        <li><strong>Execution:</strong> The fastest Solver pays the destination address immediately.</li>
        <li><strong>Claim:</strong> The Solver submits proof of payment to claim the agent's locked funds plus a fee.</li>
    </ul>

    <h3>Why It Matters</h3>
    <p>By decoupling the payment instruction from the chain execution, HorizenX402 achieves <strong>sub-second cross-chain latency</strong>, enabling real-time interaction for AI agents.</p>
