Wallet Send Bsv

This skill should be used when the user asks to "send BSV", "transfer satoshis", "create payment transaction", "send from WIF", "P2PKH transaction", or needs to build, sign, and broadcast P2PKH transactions from a WIF private key using @bsv/sdk.

Wallet Send BSV

Build, sign, and broadcast a P2PKH payment from a WIF private key using @bsv/sdk.

Note: This skill is for WIF-key-based scripts and CLIs. If building an app where users have their own wallet, use wallet-brc100 with WalletClient.createAction() instead — the wallet handles UTXOs, signing, and broadcasting automatically.

When to Use

Scripts and CLIs that own a WIF private key
Server-side BSV payments from a managed key
Quick one-off transfers from a known address

Usage

bun run skills/wallet-send-bsv/scripts/send.ts <from-wif> <to-address> <amount-satoshis>

# Show help
bun run skills/wallet-send-bsv/scripts/send.ts --help

# Example: Send 1000 satoshis
bun run skills/wallet-send-bsv/scripts/send.ts L1abc... 1BvBMSEY... 1000

Arguments

Argument	Description
`from-wif`	Private key in WIF format (starts with K, L, or 5)
`to-address`	Recipient BSV address (starts with 1 or 3)
`amount-satoshis`	Amount to send (1 BSV = 100,000,000 satoshis)

Dependencies

@bsv/sdk - BSV SDK for key/transaction operations
WhatsOnChain API - UTXO fetching
GorillaPool ARC - Transaction broadcast

Transaction Flow

Parse and validate WIF private key
Validate recipient address format
Derive sender address from private key
Fetch UTXOs from WhatsOnChain
Build transaction with P2PKH inputs/outputs
Calculate fee (1 sat/byte)
Sign transaction
Broadcast via GorillaPool ARC (https://arc.gorillapool.io)

Error Handling

Invalid WIF: Clear error with SDK message
Invalid address: Format validation error
Insufficient funds: Shows balance vs required amount
Broadcast failure: Shows ARC error code and description
