Setup

Option 1: Project-level CLAUDE.md (recommended)

Add to the top of any project's CLAUDE.md:

## RustChain Wallet Check

You can check any RustChain wallet balance using:

/rtc-balance <wallet-name>

This calls the RustChain public node at https://50.28.86.131

Option 2: Global skill (user-level)

Copy rtc_balance.sh to a directory in your PATH, or add this function to your shell rc:

rtc-balance() {
  wallet="${1:?Usage: rtc-balance <wallet-name>}"
  curl -s "https://50.28.86.131/wallet/balance?miner_id=$wallet" | python3 -c '
import sys, json
try:
    d = json.load(sys.stdin)
    bal = d.get("balance", d.get("result", {}).get("balance", "N/A"))
    print(f"Wallet: '"'"'$wallet'"'"'")
    print(f"Balance: {bal} RTC (~\${float(bal)*0.10:.2f} USD)")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error parsing response: {e}")
    print("Raw:", sys.stdin.read()[:200])
'
}
