The original technical denotation of "onchain" describes when data, namely NFT metadata, is stored entirely on a blockchain like Ethereum—the tokens and associated info live within the same smart contract system.
A newer connotation of onchain, though, is as a description for anything that relies on a blockchain in a meaningful way, even if there are key offchain components involved. Discover onchain apps, put your music onchain, etc.
That said, my favorite connotative usage here lately is "onchain AI agents," which is used to describe artificial intelligence experiments that use blockchain and crypto rails as part of their infra stacks, many of which do have integral external dependencies.
