Repo: github.com/x402agent/solana-clawd Live: solanaclawd.com npm: solana-clawd (v1.6.0) Token: $CLAWD — 8cHzQHUS2s2h8TzCmfqPKYiM4dSt4roa3n7MyRLApump

When to Use

• Setting up solana-clawd from scratch (clone, install, configure)
• Connecting MCP tools to Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code
• Starting the Telegram trading bot
• Deploying the web app or MCP server
• Hatching blockchain buddies or running spinners
• Running OODA trading loops
• Running Phoenix perpetuals through the official Solana CLAWD perps agent and bundled Vulcan skills
• Configuring voice mode (ElevenLabs + Grok)
• Minting agents on Metaplex
• Managing encrypted vault secrets
• Contributing new tools, buddies, or skills

One-Shot Install

git clone https://github.com/x402agent/solana-clawd
cd solana-clawd
npm run setup

npm run setup is the canonical bootstrap. It installs dependencies, builds the root runtime, builds MCP/, builds packages/agentwallet/, builds the main web app, builds the Clawd Vault web app, builds the wiki app, syncs the skills catalog, and creates .env from .env.example if needed.

Minimum keys needed for live Solana data: HELIUS_API_KEY (free at helius.dev).

Quick Demo (no keys needed)

npm run demo
npm run birth
npm run spinners

Install As A Standalone Skill

Install only the master solana-clawd skill:

npx skills add x402agent/solana-clawd --path skill/solana-clawd

Phoenix Perps: Vulcan / Rise SDK

The repo includes the full Vulcan skill pack under vulcan-cli-master/skills and exposes forwarding skills under skills/vulcan-*.

Use this loading order for Phoenix perps work:

1. skills/vulcan/SKILL.md
2. vulcan-cli-master/CONTEXT.md
3. vulcan-cli-master/skills/INDEX.md
4. Focused skills such as vulcan-market-intel, vulcan-risk-management, vulcan-trade-execution, vulcan-twap-execution, vulcan-grid-trading, or vulcan-ta-strategy

Official Python perps agent:

cd solana-python-agent
python perps_agent.py health
python perps_agent.py market SOL
python perps_agent.py paper-order buy SOL --notional-usdc 100
python perps_agent.py preflight

Safety contract:

• Paper mode is default.
• Live orders require explicit --yes.
• Live strategies require preflight and explicit mode selection.
• The agent never reads or prints private keys, wallet passwords, or MCP config secrets.

Telegram Bot

export TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=<from-botfather>
export HELIUS_API_KEY=<from-helius.dev>
export TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_CHATS=<your-chat-id>  # lock to your user

Blockchain Buddies

18 species across 5 categories. 8 stats per buddy. 5 rarity tiers (common 60% to legendary 1%). Multi-frame ASCII sprites with 12 hat options.

import { createBlockchainBuddy, formatBuddyCard } from 'solana-clawd/buddy'
const buddy = createBlockchainBuddy()
console.log(formatBuddyCard(buddy))

OODA Trading Loop

npx tsx examples/ooda-loop.ts

OBSERVE  -> sol_price, trending, helius_priority_fee, memory KNOWN
ORIENT   -> score candidates (trend + momentum + liquidity + participation - risk)
DECIDE   -> confidence >= 60? -> size band
ACT      -> trade_execute gated at `ask` permission
LEARN    -> write INFERRED -> Dream agent promotes to LEARNED

9 built-in agents: Explore, Scanner, PumpScanner, SniperBot, OODA, Dream, Analyst, Monitor, MetaplexAgent.

Metaplex Agent Minting

import { createAgentUmiFromEnv, mintClawdAgentFromTemplate } from 'solana-clawd/metaplex'
const umi = createAgentUmiFromEnv('solana-devnet')
const result = await mintClawdAgentFromTemplate(umi, 'trader', {
  uri: 'https://arweave.net/metadata.json',
  network: 'solana-devnet',
})

Templates: explorer, scanner, trader, analyst, monitor, custom. Networks: solana-mainnet, solana-devnet, localnet, eclipse, sonic, fogo.

Vault (AES-256-GCM)

import { SolanaVault } from 'solana-clawd/vault'
const vault = await SolanaVault.create('passphrase')
await vault.store('api_key', 'sk-live-...', 'Helius key')
vault.lock()  // zero-fills key from memory

Auto-locks after 15 min. Scrypt-derived master key. Sentinel validation.

Deploy

# Set env: ELEVEN_LABS_API_KEY, ELEVENLABS_AGENT_ID, XAI_API_KEY

Worker Swarm (iii SDK)

cd tailclawd/quickstart
iii -c iii-config.yaml      # start engine
docker compose up --build   # start 4 workers (TS + Rust + Python)

Environment Variables

See .env.example (55 lines). Minimum:

HELIUS_API_KEY=              # Free at helius.dev (1M credits/month)

Full list by category:

Category	Keys
Core	HELIUS_API_KEY, HELIUS_RPC_URL, SOLANA_TRACKER_API_KEY, BIRDEYE_API_KEY
LLM	ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, OPENROUTER_API_KEY, XAI_API_KEY
Voice	ELEVEN_LABS_API_KEY, ELEVENLABS_AGENT_ID

Social	CONSUMER_KEY, SECRET_KEY, ACCESS_TOKEN, ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET, BEARER_TOKEN

Pitfalls

• No dotenv auto-load — Telegram bot needs source .env or set -a && source .env && set +a before running
• Helius free tier — 1M credits/month, enough for dev but not high-frequency polling
• Pump sniper — Requires SOLANA_PRIVATE_KEY for live execution; signal-only mode works without
• Voice mode — Both ElevenLabs and xAI consume credits per request; monitor usage
• Wiki sub-project — web/wiki/ has separate dependencies; excluded from main Next.js build via eslint.dirs
• Node 20+ required — uses native WebSocket, structuredClone, other modern APIs
• Bun compatible but tested primarily on Node; bun:bundle feature gates exist in voice code
