Openclaw Elsa X402

Elsa x402 DeFi Tools

This skill provides access to the Elsa DeFi API for portfolio management, token analysis, and swap execution using x402 micropayments.

Standard Operating Procedure

Budget Controls

• Maximum $0.05 per API call (configurable)
• Maximum $2.00 per day (configurable)
• Maximum 30 calls per minute rate limit
• Daily budget resets at midnight in configured timezone (default: UTC)

Recommended Swap Flow (OpenClaw)

When executing swaps, follow this 4-step flow:

┌─────────────────────┐     ┌─────────────────────┐     ┌─────────────┐     ┌─────────────────────┐
│ 1. Get Quote        │ ──▶ │ 2. Dry Run          │ ──▶ │ 3. Confirm  │ ──▶ │ 4. Execute Pipeline │
│ elsa_get_swap_quote │     │ elsa_execute_swap_  │     │ [User says  │     │ elsa_pipeline_run_  │
│                     │     │ dry_run             │     │  "yes"]     │     │ and_wait            │
└─────────────────────┘     └─────────────────────┘     └─────────────┘     └─────────────────────┘

Step 1: Get Quote - Show user what they'll receive

npx tsx scripts/index.ts elsa_get_swap_quote '{
  "from_chain": "base", "from_token": "0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913",
  "from_amount": "10", "to_chain": "base", "to_token": "0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000006",
  "wallet_address": "0x...", "slippage": 0.5
}'

Step 2: Dry Run - Create pipeline, get pipeline_id

npx tsx scripts/index.ts elsa_execute_swap_dry_run '{...same params...}'
# Returns: { "pipeline_id": "abc-123", "confirmation_token": "..." }

Step 3: User Confirmation - Present results and wait for explicit "yes"

Step 4: Execute Pipeline - Sign and broadcast transactions

ELSA_ENABLE_EXECUTION_TOOLS=true npx tsx scripts/index.ts elsa_pipeline_run_and_wait '{
  "pipeline_id": "abc-123",
  "timeout_seconds": 180,
  "poll_interval_seconds": 3,
  "mode": "local_signer"
}'
# Automatically: signs approve tx → submits → signs swap tx → submits → returns tx hashes

Required Environment Variables

# For x402 API payments
PAYMENT_PRIVATE_KEY=0x...

# For signing swap transactions (optional - falls back to PAYMENT_PRIVATE_KEY)
TRADE_PRIVATE_KEY=0x...

# Enable execution tools
ELSA_ENABLE_EXECUTION_TOOLS=true

Critical Rules

• NEVER execute swaps without showing the user the quote first
• NEVER call execution tools in a loop
• NEVER proceed if budget limits are exceeded
• ALWAYS check elsa_budget_status if unsure about remaining budget
• ALWAYS use dry-run mode first for any swap operation
