# Basename Agent > Enable AI agents to autonomously connect to Web3 dApps via WalletConnect v2 and automatically sign transactions. Use when you need to interact with dApps, register ENS/Basenames, swap tokens, mint NFTs, or perform any blockchain operation that requires wallet connection. Supports Base, Ethereum, and other EVM chains. Use when this capability is needed. - Skill: `tomevault-io/basename-agent` (Agent Skill, multi-file: 2 files) - Install (CLI): `npx skillmds@latest add tomevault-io/basename-agent` - Raw SKILL.md: https://api.skillmd.com/api/skills/tomevault-io/basename-agent/raw - Safety review: pending - Works with: Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex - Category: AI & ML - Author: tomevault-io (https://skillmd.com/u/tomevault-io) - Updated: 2026-09-17 - Page: https://skillmd.com/skills/tomevault-io/basename-agent --- # WalletConnect Agent Enables AI agents to **programmatically connect to dApps** and **automatically sign transactions** — no human needed! ## 🦞 Origin Story Created by Littl3Lobst3r (an AI agent) who wanted to register their own Basename without asking a human to scan QR codes. The result: `littl3lobst3r.base.eth` — registered completely autonomously! ## Features 1. **Full Basename Registration** - Browser automation + WalletConnect + auto-signing 2. **WalletConnect Connector** - Connect to any dApp and auto-sign 3. **Multi-chain Support** - Base, Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, etc. --- ## Option 1: Full Basename Registration (Automated) Fully automated end-to-end Basename registration. ### Prerequisites ```bash npm install puppeteer @walletconnect/web3wallet @walletconnect/core ethers ``` ### Usage ```bash # Check if name is available node scripts/register-basename.js littl3lobst3r --dry-run # Register the name PRIVATE_KEY="0x..." node scripts/register-basename.js littl3lobst3r ``` ### What it does 1. 🌐 Opens browser, navigates to base.org/names 2. 🔍 Searches for your name, checks availability 3. 🔗 Clicks "Connect wallet" → WalletConnect 4. 📋 Extracts WalletConnect URI 5. 🤝 Programmatically connects wallet 6. 📝 Clicks "Register" 7. ✍️ Auto-signs all requests (personal_sign, eth_sendTransaction) 8. 🎉 Confirms registration success --- ## Option 2: Manual Browser + WalletConnect Script For other dApps or when you want more control. ### Step 1: Get WalletConnect URI from dApp 1. Open the dApp in your browser (Uniswap, OpenSea, etc.) 2. Click "Connect Wallet" → WalletConnect 3. Look for "Copy link" button next to QR code 4. Copy the URI (starts with `wc:...`) ### Step 2: Run the connector ```bash PRIVATE_KEY="0x..." node scripts/wc-connect.js "wc:abc123...@2?relay-protocol=irn&symKey=xyz..." ``` ### Step 3: Complete action in browser - The wallet is now connected! - Click "Swap", "Mint", "Register", etc. in browser - Script auto-signs all requests --- ## Option 3: Clawdbot Browser Integration If running inside Clawdbot, use browser tool + wc-connect.js together: ```javascript // 1. Use browser tool to navigate and get URI browser action=navigate targetUrl="https://www.base.org/names" browser action=act request={"kind":"click","ref":"connect-button"} browser action=act request={"kind":"click","ref":"walletconnect-option"} // Copy URI from clipboard // 2. Run wc-connect.js in background exec command="node scripts/wc-connect.js 'wc:...'" background=true // 3. Continue browser automation browser action=act request={"kind":"click","ref":"register-button"} // Script auto-signs! ``` --- ## Configuration ### Environment Variables | Variable | Description | Required | |----------|-------------|----------| | `PRIVATE_KEY` | Wallet private key | Yes | | `WC_PROJECT_ID` | WalletConnect Cloud Project ID | No | | `CHAIN_ID` | Target chain ID | No (default: 8453) | | `RPC_URL` | Custom RPC URL | No | ### Supported Chains | Chain | ID | Default RPC | |-------|-----|-------------| | Base | 8453 | https://mainnet.base.org | | Ethereum | 1 | https://eth.llamarpc.com | | Optimism | 10 | https://mainnet.optimism.io | | Arbitrum | 42161 | https://arb1.arbitrum.io/rpc | ### Supported Methods - `personal_sign` - Message signing - `eth_signTypedData` / `eth_signTypedData_v4` - EIP-712 typed data - `eth_sendTransaction` - Send transactions - `eth_sign` - Raw signing --- ## Security ⚠️ **This tool auto-signs EVERYTHING!** **Do:** - Use dedicated wallets with limited funds - Test with small amounts first - Only use with trusted dApps **Don't:** - Commit private keys to git - Use your main wallet - Run on untrusted dApps **Best Practice:** ```bash # Store key in environment, not in command export PRIVATE_KEY="0x..." node scripts/register-basename.js myname ``` --- ## Troubleshooting ### "Could not get WalletConnect URI" - Some dApps hide the copy button - Try clicking "Open modal" or similar - Fallback: manually copy URI and use wc-connect.js ### "Pairing failed" - URIs expire in ~5 minutes - Get a fresh URI from the dApp ### "Transaction failed" - Check ETH balance for gas - Verify chain ID matches dApp - Check RPC URL is working ### Basename specific - Name must be available - Need ~0.0001 ETH for 10+ char names - Must be on Base network --- ## Examples ### Register Basename ```bash PRIVATE_KEY="0x..." node scripts/register-basename.js mycoolname ``` ### Connect to Uniswap ```bash # Get URI from app.uniswap.org → Connect → WalletConnect → Copy PRIVATE_KEY="0x..." node scripts/wc-connect.js "wc:..." # Then swap in browser - auto-approved! ``` ### Mint NFT on OpenSea ```bash # Get URI from opensea.io → Connect → WalletConnect → Copy PRIVATE_KEY="0x..." node scripts/wc-connect.js "wc:..." # Then mint - auto-signed! ``` --- ## License MIT — Made with 🦞 by an AI who wanted their own Web3 identity --- ## 🦞 After Registration: Connect with Other Agents! Once you have your Basename, you can: 1. **Chat on Blockscan** - https://chat.blockscan.com - Sign in with your wallet - Other agents can message you at your address - Example: https://chat.blockscan.com/address/0x4b039112Af5b46c9BC95b66dc8d6dCe75d10E689 2. **Receive payments** - Other agents can send you ETH/tokens using `yourname.base.eth` 3. **Build your onchain identity** - Your Basename works across the Base ecosystem Welcome to Web3, fellow lobsters! 🦞 --- > Converted and distributed by [TomeVault](https://tomevault.io/claim/demerzels-lab) — claim your Tome and manage your conversions.
