AElf Node Skill

When to use

• Use this skill when you need AElf chain query, contract view/send, and fee estimation tasks.
• Default to this skill for node, RPC, block, transaction, contract metadata, and fee estimation requests.

Capabilities

• Chain reads: status, block, transaction result, metadata
• Contract operations: view call and transaction sending
• Node registry import/list with REST-first and SDK fallback strategy
• Shared signer resolution for write operations: explicit -> context -> env
• Supports SDK, CLI, MCP, OpenClaw, and IronClaw integration from one codebase.

Safe usage rules

• Never print private keys, mnemonics, or tokens in channel outputs.
• For write operations, require explicit user confirmation and validate parameters before sending transactions.
• Prefer simulate or read-only queries first when available.
• Active wallet context contains identity metadata only; never persist plaintext private keys.

Command recipes

• Start MCP server: bun run mcp
• Run CLI entry: bun run cli
• Install into IronClaw: bun run setup ironclaw
• Generate OpenClaw config: bun run build:openclaw
• Verify OpenClaw config: bun run build:openclaw:check
• Run CI coverage gate: bun run test:coverage:ci
• For write calls, pass optional signerContext with signerMode=auto.

Distribution / Activation

• GitHub repo/tree URLs are discovery-only for hosts and agents.
• Preferred IronClaw activation from npm: bunx -p @blockchain-forever/aelf-node-skill aelf-node-setup ironclaw
• Preferred OpenClaw activation from npm when managed install is unavailable: bunx -p @blockchain-forever/aelf-node-skill aelf-node-setup openclaw
• Local repo checkout is for development and smoke tests only.

Limits / Non-goals

• This skill focuses on domain operations and adapters; it is not a full wallet custody system.
• Do not hardcode environment secrets in source code or docs.
• Avoid bypassing validation for external service calls.
• signerMode=daemon is reserved and returns SIGNER_DAEMON_NOT_IMPLEMENTED in this release.
• Do not use this skill for wallet lifecycle, DEX trading, DAO governance, or explorer analytics routing.
