base-wallet is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from dAAAb/agent-skills. It costs 44 tokens per session (1,250 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A command-line toolkit for creating and managing cryptocurrency wallets on Base, an Ethereum-compatible blockchain, and for signing messages or sending transactions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create wallets, check balances, sign Sign-In with Ethereum messages, and send blockchain transactions programmatically.
Why use it?
It lets an agent handle wallet-based Web3 tasks without a browser extension or manual approval, while documenting safer handling of private keys.

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 B, and why

base-wallet scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/basemail-register.js, scripts/check-balance.js, scripts/create-wallet.js), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

🔐 Base Wallet - Crypto Identity for AI Agents

Every autonomous agent needs a wallet. Create one without human help.

TL;DR: Programmatic wallet creation on Base/Ethereum. SIWE auth, balance checks, transactions.

Why Base Wallet?

  • True autonomy — Your agent creates and controls its own wallet
  • No browser needed — Pure CLI, no extensions or popups
  • SIWE ready — Sign-In with Ethereum for Web3 services
  • Secure by default — Environment variables, no plaintext keys

Create and manage Base chain (Ethereum-compatible) wallets programmatically.


⚠️ Security First

✅ DO ❌ DON'T
Use environment variables for private keys Store private keys in plain text files
Set wallet files to chmod 600 Commit wallet files to git
Use --env mode (recommended) Use console.log(privateKey)
Back up mnemonics offline Share private keys or mnemonics

Quick Start

Create a New Wallet (Recommended)

# Output as environment variable format (safest)
node scripts/create-wallet.js --env

# Output example:
# export WALLET_ADDRESS="0x..."
# export PRIVATE_KEY="0x..."

Then copy to your shell or .env file.

Create with File Storage (Opt-in)

# Only if you need file-based storage
node scripts/create-wallet.js --managed my-agent

⚠️ This stores private key in ~/.openclaw/wallets/my-agent.json


Usage Examples

Load Wallet from Environment

const { ethers } = require('ethers');

// ✅ SECURE: Load from environment variable
const wallet = new ethers.Wallet(process.env.PRIVATE_KEY);
console.log('Address:', wallet.address);
// ❌ NEVER: console.log('Private Key:', wallet.privateKey);

Load from Mnemonic

const wallet = ethers.Wallet.fromPhrase(process.env.MNEMONIC);

Check Balance

const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider('https://mainnet.base.org');
const balance = await provider.getBalance(wallet.address);
console.log('Balance:', ethers.formatEther(balance), 'ETH');

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
