base-mcp

base-mcp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aaronjmars/aeon-agent. It costs 42 tokens per session (2,369 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of base-mcp, MIT.

A connection between a coding agent and a Base Account through Base's MCP server. Base is a blockchain network and account service; the connection covers wallet, portfolio, transaction, payment, and trading-related actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to view a wallet or portfolio, inspect transaction history, send or swap assets, sign transactions, make x402 payments, and run batched calls. It requires the Base MCP tools to be installed and available.
Why use it?
It gives an agent access to account information and blockchain actions in one interface. The workflow requires onboarding at the start of every conversation that involves it.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

base-mcp scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 19d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 142 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Base MCP

${var} - empty = wallet snapshot (address, portfolio, last 7 days of activity). history[:N] = last N transactions (default 10). Anything else = a read-only question about the account, answered from the MCP reads. Never sends, swaps, signs, pays, or batches on an Aeon run.

Aeon runs (scheduled or dispatched)

The rest of this file is Base's upstream skill, written for a live chat. An Aeon run has no user to talk to, so these rules override it:

  • Skip onboarding. No capability intro, no disclaimer, no "give me an action" reply. Go straight to the reads below. An empty ${var} is the task, not a missing one.
  • Fetch the wallet address and balances up front. The upstream "only when the user asks" rule does not apply: the snapshot needs them.
  • Read-only. Call only read tools (address, portfolio/balances, transaction history, web_request GETs for plugin data). Do not call any tool that sends, swaps, signs, pays (x402), or batches, even if ${var} asks for it - nobody is present to approve it. Refuse that request in the notify and say to run it from a chat surface instead.
  • Every figure traces to a tool response. Never estimate balances or values.

1. Read

Call the Base MCP tools (mcp__base__*; discover them from the server, don't assume names) for:

  • wallet address
  • portfolio: each token (symbol, amount, USD value), total USD value
  • transaction history: last 7 days (empty var) or last N (history[:N]), with date, type, token, amount, counterparty

For a free-form ${var} question, make only the reads that answer it.

If no mcp__base__* tool is callable, the server is not connected (or MCP_BASE_TOKEN is missing and the workflow skipped MCP with a ::warning::). Report BASE_MCP_NOT_CONNECTED, notify once pointing the operator at the dashboard MCP tab, and stop. If tools return 401/invalid-token, report BASE_MCP_AUTH_STALE and ask the operator to reconnect. Don't retry the same call more than twice.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
