nansen-wallet-keychain-migration

nansen-wallet-keychain-migration is a skill for Claude Code from nansen-ai/nansen-cli. It costs 36 tokens per session (1,474 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A migration tool for moving an existing Nansen command-line wallet password from insecure files or environment settings to the system keychain. A keychain is protected operating-system storage for secrets.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a wallet uses ~/.nansen/.env, a .env file, .credentials, or another legacy password method, and you want to switch to keychain-backed storage.
Why use it?
It identifies where the wallet password is stored and guides the move away from plaintext or otherwise insecure storage.

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

nansen-wallet-keychain-migration 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 9d 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.

Wallet Migration — Old Flow to Secure Keychain

Use this skill when a user already has a nansen-cli wallet set up with the old password storage method and wants to migrate to the new secure flow.

When to use

  • User mentions they stored their password in ~/.nansen/.env, a .env file, or memory.md
  • User gets the stderr warning: ⚠ Password loaded from insecure .credentials file
  • User asks to "secure my wallet" or "migrate to keychain"
  • User created a wallet before the keychain update was released

Detect current state

wallet show only displays addresses and does NOT load or check the password. To detect the actual password situation, check the stored password source directly:

# 1. Where is the password stored? Offline, decrypts nothing, prints no secrets
nansen auth status --pretty     # → x402.password.source: "env" | "keychain" | "file" | null

# 2. Full setup check — flags the insecure .credentials file with a fix
nansen doctor --offline

# 3. Legacy pattern doctor does not cover: password written to ~/.nansen/.env
ls -la ~/.nansen/.env 2>/dev/null && echo "FOUND: ~/.nansen/.env (insecure)"

Interpret x402.password.source:

  • "file" → password in .credentials file, needs migration (Path B)
  • "keychain" → already secure, no migration needed
  • null → password not persisted anywhere (Path C or D)
  • "env"NANSEN_WALLET_PASSWORD is set; check where it is being exported from (a .env file → Path A)

Do NOT use nansen wallet export to probe the password state — it prints private keys.

Migration paths

Path A: Password in ~/.nansen/.env (old skill pattern)

The previous wallet skill told agents to write the password to ~/.nansen/.env.

Step 1 — Ask the human for their password:

"Your wallet password is currently stored in ~/.nansen/.env, which is insecure. I can migrate it to your OS keychain. Please confirm the password you used when creating the wallet, or I can read it from ~/.nansen/.env if you authorize it."

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.

nansen-wallet-keychain-migration is a skill published in the GitHub repository nansen-ai/nansen-cli (135 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 1,474 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
