  World (formerly Worldcoin, built by Tools for Humanity) is a
  proof-of-personhood network combining biometric Orb verification, the
  World App wallet, and World Chain - an OP Stack L2 prioritised for
  verified humans. World's developer platform at docs.world.org exposes
  World ID (anonymous proof of human), Mini Apps (apps distributed inside
  World App via MiniKit), AgentKit (distinguishing human-backed agents from
  bots), and World Chain (EVM RPC, contracts, indexers). World ID
  integrations use IDKit (web/React widget) and the Verify API on the
  developer portal at developer.worldcoin.org.

    description: >-
      Anonymous proof-of-human credential. Users prove uniqueness via Orb
      (highest assurance), government document with NFC, or selfie liveness
      check (beta). Applications request a zero-knowledge proof tied to a
      per-app nullifier so the user cannot sybil-attack the same action
      twice while remaining unlinkable across apps.

      Server-side verification endpoint that checks a World ID proof against
      the action and signal the client used. Apps call /api/v2/verify with
      the proof payload and receive a success / fail response plus the
      nullifier hash for replay protection.

      capabilities - payments in WLD / USDC, signing, World ID verification,
      contacts, and notifications - without leaving the host app. Includes
      MiniKit JS/React SDKs for building and distributing Mini Apps.
