handling-transactions
Token transactions and wallet integration for XMTP agents. Use when sending USDC, creating transaction requests, or handling transaction confirmations. Triggers on USDC transfer, wallet calls, or transaction reference.
What this skill does
# XMTP transactions
Send and receive token transactions using wallet_sendCalls (EIP-5792) specification.
## When to apply
Reference these guidelines when:
- Sending USDC or other tokens
- Creating transaction requests
- Handling transaction confirmations
- Checking token balances
- Working with smart contract wallets
## Rule categories by priority
| Priority | Category | Impact | Prefix |
|----------|----------|--------|--------|
| 1 | Send | CRITICAL | `send-` |
| 2 | Receive | CRITICAL | `receive-` |
| 3 | Balance | HIGH | `balance-` |
## Quick reference
### Send (CRITICAL)
- `send-usdc-transfer` - Create USDC transfer requests
- `send-wallet-calls` - Send wallet_sendCalls messages
### Receive (CRITICAL)
- `receive-transaction-reference` - Handle transaction confirmations
### Balance (HIGH)
- `balance-check` - Check USDC balance
## Supported networks
| Network | Chain ID | USDC Address |
|---------|----------|--------------|
| Base Sepolia | 84532 | `0x036CbD53842c5426634e7929541eC2318f3dCF7e` |
| Base Mainnet | 8453 | `0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913` |
## Quick start
```typescript
import { validHex } from "@xmtp/agent-sdk";
// Check balance using viem
const balance = await getUSDCBalance("base-sepolia", validHex(address));
// Create USDC transfer calls (EIP-5792)
const calls = createUSDCTransferCalls(
"base-sepolia",
validHex(fromAddress),
validHex(toAddress),
1000000 // 1 USDC (6 decimals)
);
await ctx.conversation.sendWalletSendCalls(calls);
```
## Implementation snippets
**USDC token config:**
```typescript
const USDC_TOKENS: Record<string, { address: string; decimals: number }> = {
"base-sepolia": { address: "0x036CbD53842c5426634e7929541eC2318f3dCF7e", decimals: 6 },
"base-mainnet": { address: "0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913", decimals: 6 },
};
```
**Get USDC balance:**
```typescript
import { createPublicClient, formatUnits, http } from "viem";
import { baseSepolia, base } from "viem/chains";
const getUSDCBalance = async (networkId: string, address: HexString): Promise<string> => {
const token = USDC_TOKENS[networkId];
const client = createPublicClient({
chain: networkId === "base-mainnet" ? base : baseSepolia,
transport: http(),
});
const balance = await client.readContract({
address: token.address as HexString,
abi: [{ inputs: [{ name: "account", type: "address" }], name: "balanceOf", outputs: [{ type: "uint256" }], stateMutability: "view", type: "function" }],
functionName: "balanceOf",
args: [address],
});
return formatUnits(balance, token.decimals);
};
```
**Create USDC transfer calls:**
```typescript
import { toHex } from "viem";
const createUSDCTransferCalls = (
networkId: string, from: HexString, to: string, amount: number
): WalletSendCalls => {
const token = USDC_TOKENS[networkId];
const data = `0xa9059cbb${to.slice(2).padStart(64, "0")}${BigInt(amount).toString(16).padStart(64, "0")}`;
return {
version: "1.0",
from,
chainId: toHex(networkId === "base-mainnet" ? 8453 : 84532),
calls: [{ to: token.address as HexString, data: validHex(data) }],
};
};
```

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").
