What this skill does
# hdwallet (Python)
Pure Python HD wallet library supporting many BIP standards across
many cryptocurrencies.
Repo: `github.com/meherett/python-hdwallet`.
## Install
```bash
pip install hdwallet
```
## Quick example
```python
from hdwallet import HDWallet
from hdwallet.symbols import BTC
hdwallet = HDWallet(symbol=BTC)
hdwallet.from_mnemonic(mnemonic="abandon abandon ... about")
hdwallet.from_path("m/84'/0'/0'/0/0")
print(hdwallet.address()) # bc1q...
print(hdwallet.private_key())
print(hdwallet.public_key())
```
## Features
- BIP32 derivation (any path).
- BIP39 mnemonic.
- BIP44/49/84/86 standard accounts.
- BIP85 sub-seed derivation.
- Multi-currency: 100+ chains.
- Address types: legacy, P2SH, P2WPKH, P2WSH, P2TR.
## Use cases
- Tooling for key derivation across multiple chains.
- Educational / quick prototypes.
- Server-side bulk key generation (NOT recommended for production
signing; use HW or HSM).
## Common pitfalls
- Server-side key generation has obvious risks (random source,
memory leakage, etc.).
- Multi-currency = different default paths per chain; verify yours.

gate-dex-trade
IncludedExecutes on-chain token swaps via Gate DEX. Use when user wants to swap, buy, sell, exchange, or convert tokens, or bridge cross-chain. Covers full swap flow: price quotes, transaction build, signing, and submission. Do NOT use for read-only data lookups or wallet account management.
hunch
IncludedDiscover, bet on, track, and settle Hunch prediction markets in natural language. Trigger when a user wants to bet, take a position, or get odds on a crypto outcome — token market-cap milestones and flips, launchpad races (Bankr vs pump.fun volume / #1-days / launches over a cap), token head-to-head outperformance, mcap strike-ladders, and up/down price rounds. Also trigger on "what can I bet on about $TOKEN", "odds on …", "take YES/NO on …", "show my Hunch bets", "did my market resolve". Settles in USDC on Base via x402 (≤ $10 / bet); every bet returns an on-chain proof.
opensea
IncludedQuery NFT data, trade on the Seaport marketplace, and swap ERC20 tokens across Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, and more.
polymarket
IncludedTrade on Polymarket prediction markets (CLOB V2) from a Privy EOA wallet. Search markets, place/cancel orders, manage positions. No private key handling. Use when the user wants to bet on event outcomes (e.g. "buy YES at 0.65 on the ceasefire market", "what are my open positions", "close my Trump bet").
