OPERATOR SKILL: This skill executes commands. It requires explicit human invocation and cannot be auto-triggered by the model.

When to use

When you need to actually execute wallet creation commands
After reviewing the guidance from cardano-cli-wallets

Operating rules (must follow)

Confirm network (mainnet/preprod/preview) before ANY execution
Always create a dedicated directory for wallet files
Set chmod 600 *.skey immediately after key generation
Show the user what will be executed before running
Verify each step succeeded before continuing

Execution workflow

Step 1: Confirm parameters

Network: [mainnet/preprod/preview]
Magic: [1 for preprod, 2 for preview, none for mainnet]
Wallet directory: [path]

Step 2: Create directory

mkdir -p <wallet-dir> && cd <wallet-dir>

Step 3: Generate keys (with confirmation)

# Payment keys
cardano-cli conway address key-gen \
  --verification-key-file payment.vkey \
  --signing-key-file payment.skey

# Stake keys
cardano-cli conway stake-address key-gen \
  --verification-key-file stake.vkey \
  --signing-key-file stake.skey

# Secure immediately
chmod 600 *.skey

Step 4: Build addresses

# Base address
cardano-cli conway address build \
  --payment-verification-key-file payment.vkey \
  --stake-verification-key-file stake.vkey \
  --out-file base.addr \
  --testnet-magic 1  # adjust per network

Step 5: Verify and report

echo "=== Wallet Created ==="
echo "Base Address: $(cat base.addr)"
ls -la *.vkey *.skey *.addr

Safety / key handling

NEVER display .skey file contents
ALWAYS chmod 600 immediately after generation
For mainnet: strongly recommend offline generation
Verify directory permissions before proceeding
