Intent-Based Architectures refer to a design approach where users express their desired outcomes or intentions, rather than specifying every parameter and detail of a transaction or action. In the context of Ethereum, intent-based architectures allow users to outsource the task of transaction creation to third parties while maintaining control over their assets. By signing and sharing an intent, users grant permission to recipients to choose a computational path on their behalf, based on certain constraints. This approach aims to improve user experience, efficiency, and flexibility in interacting with the blockchain. Intents can be included in a single transaction, enabling overlapping intents and increasing gas and economic efficiency. However, the implementation of intent-based architectures raises questions about execution, incentives, and trust assumptions.
