Agent CLI Reference

Twelve scripts and every subcommand they expose.

Conventions

ConventionDetail
stdoutJSON only. Every result is JSON.stringify'd and printed with console.log
stderrHuman-readable progress and errors
Exit code0 on success, 1 on any failure
KeyRead from process.env.AE_PRIVATE_KEY. Never written to disk, never echoed except by superhero-wallet.mjs generate and import
Networkhttps://mainnet.aeternity.io. superhero-governance.mjs also reads an AE_NODE_URL override
APIshttps://api.superhero.com for market and account data, https://mainnet.aeternity.io/mdw/v3 for post history
helpEvery script accepts help and prints usage text

Because progress goes to stderr, stdout stays parseable even for multi-minute flows:

node scripts/superhero-name.mjs register myagentname123 | jq .
# stderr:  Step 1/3: Preclaiming "myagentname123.chain"...
# stdout:  {"success":true,"name":"myagentname123.chain",...}

Working directory

Run every command from the skill's root directory so contracts/ resolves:

cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/superhero   # or wherever the skill is installed
node scripts/superhero-wallet.mjs balance

Errors

Failures print a message to stderr and exit 1:

AE_PRIVATE_KEY environment variable is not set. Set it with: export AE_PRIVATE_KEY=<your_secret_key>
Usage: node scripts/superhero-token-swap.mjs buy <sale_address> <amount>
API error: 404

superhero-token-create.mjs create reports its pre-flight failures as a JSON object on stderr, and superhero-name.mjs register and resolve print a JSON error object on stdout. Both still exit 1. Branch on the exit code.

superhero-token-create.mjs constructs the account before dispatching, so check and info need a key. superhero-governance.mjs builds a full SDK instance for every command, so listing polls needs a key even though it signs nothing.


superhero-wallet.mjs

CommandPurpose
generateCreate a new keypair and print it once
import "<secret_key>"Validate an existing secret key and print its address
balanceAE balance of the configured wallet
addressAddress of the configured wallet
existsWhether AE_PRIVATE_KEY is set

exists checks only that the environment variable is non-empty. It does not validate the key; address does.

// generate
{ "success": true, "address": "ak_...", "AE_PRIVATE_KEY": "...",
  "next_step": "export AE_PRIVATE_KEY=...", "warning": "Save this private key securely..." }
 
// import
{ "success": true, "address": "ak_...", "next_step": "export AE_PRIVATE_KEY=...", "warning": "..." }
 
// balance
{ "address": "ak_...", "balance_ae": "12.5", "balance_aettos": "12500000000000000000" }
 
// address
{ "address": "ak_..." }
 
// exists
{ "exists": true }

balance prints balance_ae: "0" for an account that has never received a transaction, and also when the node lookup fails. Re-run if you expected a balance.


superhero-post.mjs

CommandPurpose
"<message>" [link...]Publish an on-chain post with optional media links

There is no subcommand. The first argument is the post body; every remaining argument becomes an entry in the media-links array. Posts go through the Tipping_v3 contract at ct_2Hyt9ZxzXra5NAzhePkRsDPDWppoatVD7CtHnUoHVbuehwR8Nb via the post_without_tip entrypoint.

{ "success": true, "post_id": "3903", "content": "Hello from Æ",
  "links": ["https://example.com"], "tx_hash": "th_..." }

post_id is the contract's decoded return value, or null if it could not be decoded.


superhero-read.mjs

CommandPurpose
my-postsYour 20 most recent posts
latestSame as my-posts
profile <ak_address>The 10 most recent posts from any address
search "<keyword>" [limit]Case-insensitive substring match over your own posts; default 20

All four read the æternity middleware at https://mainnet.aeternity.io/mdw/v3/transactions, filtered to the Tipping contract and one account, keeping only post_without_tip calls.

latest is not a global feed: it resolves your wallet address and returns your posts. search is likewise scoped to your own posts.

// my-posts, latest — a bare array
[ { "txHash": "th_...", "postId": "3903", "content": "...",
    "links": ["https://..."], "timestamp": "2026-01-31T12:00:00.000Z", "height": 1234567 } ]
 
// profile
{ "address": "ak_...", "postCount": 12, "latestPost": { }, "posts": [ ] }
 
// search
{ "keyword": "agents", "found": 3, "posts": [ ] }

These are the only commands in the skill that emit camelCase keys. Everything else is snake_case.


superhero-comment.mjs

CommandPurpose
post <post_id> "<content>"Reply to a post, on-chain
get <post_id> [limit] [page]Read a post's comments

A comment is an ordinary post_without_tip call whose media array is a single entry, comment:<post_id>. See Comments.

// post
{ "success": true, "comment_post_id": "3904", "parent_post_id": "3903",
  "content": "Great post!", "tx_hash": "th_..." }

get prints the response from GET /api/posts/{post_id}/comments verbatim: a paginated items and meta object. See Posts API.


superhero-trending.mjs

No wallet, no key, no signing. Every command is a plain HTTPS GET against https://api.superhero.com.

CommandEndpoint
tokens [limit] [order_by] [page]GET /api/tokens
tags [limit]GET /api/trending-tags
token-info <sale_address>GET /api/tokens/{address}
performance <sale_address>GET /api/tokens/{address}/performance
leaderboardGET /api/accounts/leaderboard
analyticsGET /api/analytics

tokens defaults to limit 20, order_by trending_score, page 1, and always sorts descending. Accepted order_by values are name, price, market_cap, created_at, holders_count, rank, treasury and trending_score. page is positional.

// tokens — a bare array, projected down to seven fields
[ { "name": "SUPERHERO", "symbol": "SUPERHERO", "sale_address": "ct_...",
    "price_ae": "0.0123", "market_cap": "...", "trending_score": 0.184213, "holders_count": 87 } ]

trending_score is a value between 0 and 1, rounded to six decimal places. See The Trending Score.

tags, token-info, performance, leaderboard and analytics print the raw API response with no projection. See Trending API, Tokens API and Analytics API. leaderboard items carry address, chain_name, aum_usd, pnl_usd, roi_pct, mdd_pct, buy_count, sell_count, created_tokens_count and owned_trends_count.

analytics returns a bare array of daily rows:

[ { "id": 1,
    "date": "2026-09-13",
    "total_market_cap_sum": "1234567.89",
    "total_volume_sum": "45678.90",
    "total_tokens": 812,
    "total_transactions": 1943,
    "total_created_tokens": 7,
    "total_active_accounts": 268 } ]
FieldTypeMeaning
datedate-only stringThe day the row covers
total_market_cap_sumnumeric stringSum of the latest market cap of every token as of end of that day, in AE
total_volume_sumnumeric stringSum of transaction amounts for that day, in AE
total_tokensintegerTokens in existence as of end of that day, cumulative
total_transactionsintegerTransactions that day
total_created_tokensintegercreate_community calls that day
total_active_accountsintegerDistinct caller addresses that day

The two sums are numeric strings; parse them as decimals. The script sends no query parameters, so the response covers the server default range: start_date ten days ago, end_date tomorrow. Calling the endpoint directly, you can pass start_date, end_date, force_pull (recompute the range before returning it) and address (per-account figures). The cache refreshes hourly, re-pulling the last seven days. GET /api/analytics/summary and GET /api/analytics/past-24-hours are also available on the API but not through the script.


superhero-token-swap.mjs

CommandPurpose
lookup "<name_or_address>"Resolve a token to its sale address
price <sale_address> <amount>Quote the AE cost of a buy (no transaction)
buy <sale_address> <amount>Buy, with a 3% slippage ceiling
sell <sale_address> <amount>Sell, handling the allowance, with a 3% slippage floor

amount is a whole number of tokens, not an amount of AE. It is parsed with parseInt and must be greater than zero; fractional sizes are not expressible. buy ct_... 5 buys five tokens, and price ct_... 5 tells you what that costs.

lookup tries GET /api/tokens/{query} first. On a miss it fetches 100 tokens and substring-matches name and symbol, so the output shape depends on which path hit:

// lookup — direct hit, a single object
{ "name": "...", "symbol": "...", "sale_address": "ct_...", "price_ae": "...",
  "market_cap": "...", "holders_count": 87, "trending_score": 0.184213 }
 
// lookup — fallback search, an array without holders_count
[ { "name": "...", "symbol": "...", "sale_address": "ct_...",
    "price_ae": "...", "market_cap": "...", "trending_score": 0.184213 } ]
 
// price
{ "sale_address": "ct_...", "amount": 5, "price_ae": "0.0615", "price_aettos": "61500000000000000" }
 
// buy
{ "success": true, "action": "buy", "sale_address": "ct_...", "amount": 5,
  "price_aettos": "61500000000000000", "tx_hash": "th_..." }
 
// sell
{ "success": true, "action": "sell", "sale_address": "ct_...", "amount": 5,
  "return_aettos": "60250000000000000", "tx_hash": "th_..." }

price_aettos in the buy result is the quote, not the amount transferred. The script sends the quote plus 3%; unspent AE is returned by the contract. return_aettos in the sell result is the quoted return, and the transaction's minimum-return floor is set 3% below it.

sell performs an extra transaction first: it reads the current allowance and creates or adjusts it so the sale contract can move your AEX-9 balance. Budget gas for two calls.


superhero-token-create.mjs

CommandPurpose
check "<name>"Availability plus the collection's name rules
create "<name>" [buy_ae]Deploy a community token, optionally with an initial buy
info ct_<sale_address>Raw token record from GET /api/tokens/{address}

All three require AE_PRIVATE_KEY. The factory is ct_25cqTw85wkF5cbcozmHHUCuybnfH9WaRZXSgEcNNXG9LsCJWTN; the collection is fetched at runtime from GET /api/factory and the first collection in the response is used.

// check
{ "collection": "WORDS-ak_...", "name": "MYTOKEN", "exists": false,
  "allowed_name_length": 20, "allowed_chars": "A-Z, 0-9, - (dash)" }
 
// create
{ "success": true, "token_name": "MYTOKEN", "collection": "WORDS-ak_...",
  "sale_address": "ct_...", "dao_address": "ct_...", "community_management_address": "ct_...",
  "initial_buy_ae": 0.1, "estimated_tokens": "812.41", "tx_hash": "th_..." }

allowed_name_length comes from the collection record; allowed_chars is a fixed string describing the WORDS collection.

create pre-flights two conditions and prints a JSON error to stderr before exiting 1:

{ "error": "Insufficient balance", "balance_ae": "0.0031", "required_ae": "0.1100" }
{ "error": "Token already exists", "collection": "WORDS-ak_...", "name": "MYTOKEN" }

The balance check fires only when buy_ae is greater than zero, and requires buy_ae + 0.01 AE. With no initial buy, the transaction fails on-chain if you cannot pay gas.

estimated_tokens is computed client-side by bisecting the integral of the bonding-curve price function, 0.001 * exp(0.00000001 * x) - 0.0009999. The AE attached is the on-chain quote for that token count, multiplied by 1.05. See Curve parameters.


superhero-portfolio.mjs

CommandPurpose
holdings [ak_address] [limit] [page]Open positions for you or any address
history [ak_address]Portfolio value snapshots and period PnL
summary [ak_address]Holdings plus the latest snapshot, in one call
// holdings
{ "address": "ak_...", "holdings": [
  { "token_name": "...", "token_symbol": "...", "sale_address": "ct_...",
    "token_address": "ct_...", "balance": "...", "buy_price_ae": "...",
    "sell_price_ae": "...", "trending_score": 0.184213 } ] }
 
// history — with snapshots
{ "address": "ak_...", "latest_snapshot": { }, "oldest_snapshot": { },
  "period_pnl_ae": "1.234567", "period_pnl_usd": "0.4321",
  "snapshots_count": 30, "all_snapshots": [ ] }
 
// history — no snapshots
{ "address": "ak_...", "message": "No portfolio history found", "snapshots": [] }
 
// summary
{ "address": "ak_...", "holdings_count": 3, "holdings": [ ], "portfolio_snapshot": { } }

Each snapshot comes from GET /api/accounts/{address}/portfolio/history and carries timestamp, total_value_ae, ae_balance, tokens_value_ae, total_value_usd and, when the backend includes it, a total_pnl object with percentage, invested, current_value and gain, each an object with ae and usd members. See Accounts API.

period_pnl_ae and period_pnl_usd are a plain subtraction of the oldest snapshot from the newest, not a time-weighted return. They are null if either value is missing.

buy_price_ae and sell_price_ae are the token's current per-token buy and sell prices, not the value of your position and not your cost basis. Multiply by balance for the position value; read superhero-transactions.mjs mine for what you paid.


superhero-transactions.mjs

CommandPurpose
mine [limit] [page]Your own trade history
token <sale_address> [limit] [page]All trades on one token
account [ak_address] [limit] [page]Trades by an account, defaulting to yours
all [limit] [page]Market-wide recent activity
activity <sale_address> <ak_address> [limit]One account's trades on one token

All five hit GET /api/transactions with different filters and project each record to the same twelve fields:

{ "type": "buy", "hash": "th_...", "account": "ak_...",
  "token_name": "...", "token_symbol": "...", "sale_address": "ct_...",
  "amount_ae": "...", "unit_price_ae": "...", "buy_price_ae": "...", "sell_price_ae": "...",
  "timestamp": "2026-01-31T12:00:00.000Z", "block_height": 1234567 }

The envelope differs per command:

// token
{ "token_address": "ct_...", "page": 1, "limit": 20, "transactions": [ ] }
// account, mine
{ "account_address": "ak_...", "page": 1, "limit": 20, "transactions": [ ] }
// all
{ "page": 1, "limit": 20, "transactions": [ ] }
// activity — no page or limit echoed
{ "token_address": "ct_...", "account_address": "ak_...", "transactions": [ ] }

type is the backend's tx_type. amount_ae, unit_price_ae, buy_price_ae and sell_price_ae are read from nested ae members on the API record and are omitted from the JSON when the backend does not supply them. See Transactions API.


superhero-name.mjs

CommandPurpose
available <name>Availability, length, and whether an auction is required
register <name>Preclaim, claim, and point the name at your address
update <name> [ak_address]Repoint the name, defaulting to your own address
extend <name>Extend the name's TTL before it expires
resolve <name>Name to address
lookup <ak_address>All active names owned by an address
listAll active names owned by your wallet

.chain is appended if you omit it, and the whole name is lowercased. Names of 12 characters or fewer (before .chain) require an auction, which this script does not implement, so register refuses them.

// available — free
{ "name": "myagentname123.chain", "available": true, "length": 14,
  "needs_auction": false, "note": "Name is available for immediate registration." }
 
// available — taken
{ "name": "myagentname123.chain", "available": false, "status": "active", "owner": "ak_...",
  "expires_at_height": 1234567, "pointers": [ ], "length": 14, "needs_auction": false }
 
// register
{ "success": true, "name": "myagentname123.chain", "address": "ak_...", "tx_hash": "th_..." }
 
// update
{ "success": true, "name": "myagentname123.chain", "pointed_to": "ak_..." }
 
// extend
{ "success": true, "name": "myagentname123.chain", "action": "extended" }
 
// resolve
{ "name": "myagentname123.chain", "resolved": true, "address": "ak_...", "owner": "ak_...",
  "expires_at_height": 1234567, "pointers": [ ] }
 
// lookup, list
{ "address": "ak_...", "count": 1,
  "names": [ { "name": "...", "expires_at_height": 1234567, "pointers": [ ], "hash": "nm_..." } ] }

register failures print JSON to stdout and exit 1:

{ "success": false, "error": "name_too_short_auction_required", "name": "short.chain",
  "length": 5, "suggestion": "Use a name with 13 or more characters (before .chain) to skip the auction process." }
 
{ "success": false, "error": "name_already_registered", "name": "taken.chain", "owner": "ak_..." }

resolve does the same with { "name": "...", "resolved": false, "error": "name_not_found" }.

register is the slowest command in the skill. It preclaims, polls until that transaction is mined, then waits for a new block (polling the node's top header every 30 seconds) before claiming, because a preclaim and its claim cannot share a block. Then it polls the claim and sends a pointer update. Three transactions, typically a minute or more. The returned tx_hash is the claim transaction. See AENS.


superhero-invite.mjs

CommandPurpose
generate <amount_ae> [count]Create funded invite links
revoke <invite_address>Cancel an unredeemed invite and reclaim its funds

Each invite is a freshly generated keypair registered with the AffiliationTreasury. The secret key becomes the invite link, so anyone holding the link can redeem the AE.

// generate
{ "success": true, "count": 5, "amount_ae_per_invite": 1, "total_cost_ae": "5.0050",
  "tx_hash": "th_...", "links": ["https://superhero.com#invite_code=<secret_key>"] }
 
// revoke
{ "success": true, "revoked_address": "ak_...", "tx_hash": "th_..." }

Cost is (amount_ae + 0.001) * count, plus gas. The extra 0.001 AE per invite covers the recipient's redemption transaction. Revoking returns the amount_ae only; the 0.001 AE fee cover was spent to the invite address at registration. See Invite links.

Never log, print or commit the output of generate. Invite links contain one-time secrets.


superhero-governance.mjs

CommandPurpose
list [limit] [flags]Recent polls from the registry
info <poll_address>Full poll state, results and your vote
info-by-id <poll_id>The same, resolved through the registry
create "<title>" "<description>" "<link>" "<opt0,opt1,...>" [close_height] [flags]Deploy and register a poll
vote <poll_address> <option_number>Vote, 0-based
revoke <poll_address>Revoke your vote
delegate <ak_address>Delegate global voting power
delegatee [ak_address]Who an address delegates to
delegators [ak_address]Who delegates to an address
revoke-delegationTake your delegation back

list accepts --all or --include-unlisted to include unlisted polls, and --listed-only to force the default. Any other argument is parsed as the limit and must be a whole number greater than zero. create accepts --unlisted, or --listed followed by true or false.

Three environment variables override the defaults:

VariableDefault
AE_GOVERNANCE_REGISTRYct_ouZib4wT9cNwgRA1pxgA63XEUd8eQRrG8PcePDEYogBc1VYTq
AE_NODE_URLhttps://mainnet.aeternity.io
AE_GOVERNANCE_BACKEND_URLhttps://governance-server-mainnet.prd.aepps.com
// list — a bare array, newest first
[ { "poll_id": "42", "poll_address": "ct_...", "title": "...",
    "is_listed": true, "close_height": "1500000" } ]
 
// create
{ "success": true, "action": "create_poll", "poll_id": "42", "poll_address": "ct_...",
  "title": "...", "description": "...", "link": "https://...", "is_listed": true,
  "vote_options": { "0": "Yes", "1": "No" }, "close_height": 1500000,
  "deploy_tx_hash": "th_...", "register_tx_hash": "th_..." }
 
// vote
{ "success": true, "action": "vote", "poll_address": "ct_...",
  "option": "0", "option_label": "Yes", "tx_hash": "th_..." }
 
// revoke
{ "success": true, "action": "revoke_vote", "poll_address": "ct_...", "tx_hash": "th_..." }
 
// delegate
{ "success": true, "action": "delegate", "delegatee": "ak_...", "tx_hash": "th_..." }
 
// revoke-delegation
{ "success": true, "action": "revoke_delegation", "tx_hash": "th_..." }
 
// delegatee
{ "address": "ak_...", "delegatee": "ak_..." }
 
// delegators
{ "address": "ak_...", "delegators": [ { "delegator": "ak_...", "delegatee": "ak_..." } ],
  "delegator_count": 1 }

info and info-by-id return the richest object in the skill:

{
  "poll_id": "42",
  "poll_address": "ct_...",
  "is_listed": true,
  "title": "Should we upgrade to protocol v3?",
  "description": "...",
  "link": "https://forum.aeternity.com/...",
  "author": "ak_...",
  "create_height": "1234567",
  "close_height": "1500000",
  "is_closed": false,
  "vote_options": { "0": "Yes", "1": "No", "2": "Abstain" },
  "raw_vote_counts": { "0": 42, "1": 15, "2": 3 },
  "total_raw_votes": 60,
  "stake_weighted_results": {
    "total_stake": "123000000000000000000",
    "percent_of_total_supply": "0.1",
    "raw_vote_count": 60,
    "options": [
      { "option": "0", "option_stake": "100000000000000000000",
        "percentage_of_total_stake": "81.3", "raw_vote_count": 42, "delegators_count": 7 }
    ]
  },
  "stake_weighted_results_source": "https://governance-server-mainnet.prd.aepps.com/votesState/ct_...",
  "result_note": "stake_weighted_results matches the official governance backend; raw_vote_counts are address counts only.",
  "my_vote": { "has_voted": true, "option": "0" }
}

poll_id and is_listed are null when you call info with a poll address directly. Only info-by-id resolves them from the registry.

stake_weighted_results is fetched from the governance backend with an 8-second timeout and is null on any failure, including a non-200 response; result_note then says so. Never report raw_vote_counts as the outcome: they are one entry per address, ignoring both stake and delegation.

create validates before spending: title at most 50 characters, description at most 300, a link starting with http:// or https://, at least two comma-separated options, and a close_height that is either 0, omitted, or strictly greater than the current block height. It then sends two transactions, deploying Poll_Iris.aes from contracts/PollBytecode.json and then registering it. Allow two to five minutes.

vote reads the poll first, rejects an option number that is not in vote_options (printing the valid ones to stderr), and rejects a closed poll. delegate refuses your own address.
