Agentic Wallet
Operate a crypto wallet through the awal CLI. This skill is a router: read the relevant reference file in references/ for the task at hand.
Preflight: Confirm wallet state
Before any wallet operation that requires authentication (everything except x402 search/details), check status:
npx awal@2.12.0 status
If the wallet is not authenticated, read references/auth.md and complete sign-in first.
Routing
Pick the reference that matches the task and Read it before acting:
| Task | Reference |
|---|---|
| Sign in, log in, connect wallet, OTP verification, "not signed in" errors | references/auth.md |
| Check balances, "how much USDC/ETH/POL/SOL do I have", balance per chain, JSON balance output | references/balance.md |
| Send USDC / ETH / POL / SOL to an address or ENS name (Base, Polygon, Solana) | references/send-usdc.md |
| Swap / trade / convert tokens on Base or Polygon | references/trade.md |
| Add funds, top up, onramp, buy USDC | references/fund.md |
| Find / browse / search paid services on the x402 bazaar | references/x402-search.md |
| Call a paid x402 API endpoint with automatic USDC payment | references/x402-pay.md |
| Build or deploy a paid API server that other agents can pay to use | references/x402-monetize.md |
| Query onchain data on Base (events, transactions, blocks) via the CDP SQL API | references/query-onchain.md |
If no clear match and the user wants an external capability, search the x402 bazaar (references/x402-search.md) — a paid service may exist.
Shared rules
- Input validation: every reference lists the regexes / allowlists that user-provided values must match before being placed in a shell command. Validate strictly; reject inputs containing spaces, semicolons, pipes, backticks, or other shell metacharacters. Do not pass unvalidated user input into commands.
- Single-quote
$amounts: any amount written as'$1.00'must be single-quoted to prevent bash variable expansion. - JSON output: every
awalcommand supports--jsonfor machine-readable output. - Auth errors mean re-auth: if any command fails with "Not authenticated" or similar, read
references/auth.mdand run the sign-in flow. - Insufficient balance: read
references/fund.mdto top up.
