RPC Management Commands

RPCs are persisted in ~/.config/openscan-crypto/rpc-config.json. On first use, the skill auto-fetches from @openscan/metadata and selects privacy-first RPCs. All subsequent commands use the persisted config.

Fetch/sync RPCs from metadata

crypto-cli.mjs rpc-fetch                # Sync all networks from @openscan/metadata
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-fetch ethereum       # Sync a specific network

Resolves the latest metadata version dynamically from npm. Auto-selects RPCs (privacy-first, open-source preferred).

List RPCs

crypto-cli.mjs rpc-list ethereum              # Show active (configured) RPCs
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-list ethereum --all        # Show ALL available RPCs from metadata
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-list ethereum --all --private  # Only privacy (tracking:none)

Configure RPCs

crypto-cli.mjs rpc-set ethereum --strategy race         # Set strategy: fallback|race|parallel
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-set ethereum --add https://my-rpc.com  # Add custom RPC
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-set ethereum --remove https://rpc.com  # Remove an RPC
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-set ethereum --rpcs url1 url2 url3   # Replace all RPCs
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-set ethereum --private-only           # Keep only tracking:none
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-set ethereum --reset                  # Reset to metadata defaults
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-set --default-strategy parallel       # Set global default strategy
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-set --max-rpcs 3                      # Set global max RPCs per network

Reorder RPCs

crypto-cli.mjs rpc-order ethereum --benchmark            # Auto-sort by latency (fastest first)
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-order ethereum --swap 1 3             # Swap positions 1 and 3
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-order ethereum <url> --position 1     # Move URL to position 1

Test/benchmark RPCs

crypto-cli.mjs rpc-test ethereum              # Test all configured RPCs
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-test ethereum --all        # Test ALL available from metadata
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-test ethereum <url>        # Test a specific URL

Tests latency, block number, client version. Detects out-of-sync nodes via block delta.

View/set default strategy

crypto-cli.mjs rpc-strategy                   # View defaults + per-network overrides
crypto-cli.mjs rpc-strategy parallel           # Set global default to parallel

Address Info Command

Aggregate address information

crypto-cli.mjs address-info <address>              # Full address info
crypto-cli.mjs address-info vitalik.eth            # ENS name supported
crypto-cli.mjs address-info <address> --chain base # On another chain
crypto-cli.mjs address-info <address> --private    # Privacy RPCs only

Returns in a single call:

• type: EOA or contract (with codeSize if contract)
• balance: native balance (ETH/MATIC/BNB, etc.)
• txCount: total transaction count (nonce)
• ensName: primary ENS name via reverse lookup (Ethereum mainnet only)
• label: metadata label if the address is a known entity (name, tags, description, website)
• explorerLink: direct link to the OpenScan explorer

This command fires balance, code, and nonce in parallel, then enriches the result with ENS reverse resolution and metadata label lookup.

Price Commands

On-chain token price (100% on-chain, no CoinGecko)

crypto-cli.mjs price                    # ETH price (default)
crypto-cli.mjs price BTC                # BTC price (via WBTC pools on mainnet)
crypto-cli.mjs price --chain polygon    # MATIC price
crypto-cli.mjs price --chain bnb        # BNB price
crypto-cli.mjs price --chain arbitrum   # ETH price (fetched from mainnet for L2s)

Fetches prices from Uniswap V2-style DEX pools. Uses median of multiple pools for manipulation resistance. Returns per-pool breakdown.

Decode transaction (function call + events)

crypto-cli.mjs decode-tx <0xhash>                  # Decode function + events
crypto-cli.mjs decode-tx <0xhash> --chain arbitrum  # On another chain

Decodes transaction input data into human-readable function name + parameters. Also decodes all event logs in the receipt. Uses local database of known selectors + 4byte.directory fallback. Identifies tx type: transfer, contract_call, or contract_creation.

Strategies:

• fallback — Try RPCs in order, move to next on failure. Default. Most conservative.
• race — Fire all RPCs simultaneously, use fastest response. Best for latency.
• parallel — Fire all, compare results, detect inconsistencies. Trustless verification.

EVM Query Commands

All EVM commands accept --chain <chain> (default: ethereum) and --private (use tracking:none RPCs only).

Check balance

crypto-cli.mjs balance <address>                           # Native balance (ETH)
crypto-cli.mjs balance vitalik.eth                          # ENS name supported
crypto-cli.mjs balance <address> --token USDC              # + ERC20 balance
crypto-cli.mjs balance <address> --chain arbitrum           # On Arbitrum
crypto-cli.mjs balance <address> --token USDC --chain base  # USDC on Base

Returns native balance in human-readable format (e.g., "32.12 ETH") plus raw wei. Token balance includes symbol, decimals, and formatted amount.

Multi-chain balance

crypto-cli.mjs multi-balance <address>                     # All mainnet chains
crypto-cli.mjs multi-balance vitalik.eth                    # ENS supported
crypto-cli.mjs multi-balance <address> --private           # Privacy RPCs only

Queries the same address across ALL mainnet EVM chains in parallel. Shows balances sorted by chains with funds first.

Get block info

crypto-cli.mjs block                    # Latest block
crypto-cli.mjs block latest             # Same
crypto-cli.mjs block 19000000           # By number
crypto-cli.mjs block 0xabcdef...        # By hash (66 chars)

Returns: number, hash, timestamp, gasUsed, gasLimit, baseFee, txCount, miner.

Transaction details

crypto-cli.mjs tx <0xhash>
crypto-cli.mjs tx <0xhash> --chain arbitrum

Returns: hash, blockNumber, from, to, value (in ETH), gasPrice, nonce, input data.

Transaction receipt

crypto-cli.mjs receipt <0xhash>

Returns: status (success/reverted), gasUsed, effectiveGasPrice, contract address (if deploy), logs with decoded event names from metadata.

Gas prices

crypto-cli.mjs gas                      # Ethereum gas
crypto-cli.mjs gas --chain base         # Base gas
crypto-cli.mjs gas --chain arbitrum     # Arbitrum gas

Returns: gasPrice, maxPriorityFeePerGas, baseFee — all in gwei.

Read contract (eth_call)

crypto-cli.mjs call <to_address> <calldata_hex> [--block <tag>]

For raw contract reads. Use for custom ABI calls.

Event logs

crypto-cli.mjs logs --address <contract> --topic <topic_hash> [--from <block>] [--to <block>]

Returns up to 50 logs. Default range: latest block only.

Check if address is contract

crypto-cli.mjs code <address>

Returns: isContract (bool), codeSize, truncated bytecode.

Transaction count (nonce)

crypto-cli.mjs nonce <address>

Bitcoin Commands

Bitcoin queries use the mempool.space REST API (no JSON-RPC needed).

Blockchain overview

crypto-cli.mjs btc-info

Returns: block height, best hash, difficulty, mempool stats, recommended fees — all in one call.

Block details

crypto-cli.mjs btc-block                # Latest block
crypto-cli.mjs btc-block 800000         # By height
crypto-cli.mjs btc-block 0000000...     # By hash (64 chars)

Transaction details

crypto-cli.mjs btc-tx <txid>

Returns: confirmation status, fee (sats + BTC), fee rate (sat/vB), inputs/outputs with addresses and values.

Mempool state

crypto-cli.mjs btc-mempool

Returns: tx count, vsize, total fees, recommended fee rates, 5 most recent txs.

Fee estimates

crypto-cli.mjs btc-fee

Returns: fastest, halfHour, hour, economy, minimum — all in sat/vB.

Address balance

crypto-cli.mjs btc-address <address>

Returns: balance (BTC + sats), total received/sent, tx count, UTXO count.

Chain Aliases

Numeric chain IDs also work (e.g., 1, 42161).

Output

All commands output JSON to stdout. The agent can parse and format as needed.

Numeric values are pre-formatted:

• Balances: human-readable (e.g., "32.12 ETH") + raw wei
• Gas: in gwei
• Timestamps: ISO 8601
• Hex numbers: converted to decimal strings

Explorer Links

EVM commands that return on-chain entities include an explorerLink field with a direct URL to openscan.eth.link:

URL patterns:

• EVM: https://openscan.eth.link/#/{chainId}/{type}/{id}
• Bitcoin mainnet: https://openscan.eth.link/#/btc/{type}/{id}
• Bitcoin testnet4: https://openscan.eth.link/#/tbtc/{type}/{id}

Always show this link to the user so they can explore the data further in the UI.

Caching

Metadata cached in ~/.cache/openscan-crypto/ (6h TTL). RPC responses are NOT cached.

ENS Support

All EVM address commands accept .eth names (e.g., vitalik.eth). ENS is resolved on Ethereum mainnet automatically. Works with: balance, multi-balance, code, nonce.

Security

• READ-ONLY — no transaction signing, no private key handling
• Public RPCs — no API keys needed
• --private flag restricts to tracking:none RPCs
• Dangerous methods (sendTransaction, etc.) are NOT exposed
