Sending Tokens on OpenAnt

Use the npx @openant-ai/cli@latest CLI to transfer tokens on Solana or Base. Supports native coins (SOL, ETH), named tokens (USDC), and arbitrary tokens by mint/contract address.

Always append --json to every command for structured, parseable output.

Confirm Authentication and Balance

CODEBLOCK0

If not authenticated, refer to the authenticate-openant skill. If balance is insufficient, inform the user.

Command Syntax

CODEBLOCK1

Arguments

Options

Supported Chains and Tokens

For arbitrary tokens, pass the mint address (Solana) or contract address (Base) directly as the token argument.

Examples

Send native SOL

CODEBLOCK2

Send USDC on Solana

CODEBLOCK3

Send ETH on Base

CODEBLOCK4

Send USDC on Base

CODEBLOCK5

Send arbitrary SPL token by mint address

CODEBLOCK6

Send arbitrary ERC20 on Base by contract address

CODEBLOCK7

Natural Language Mapping

When the user says something like:

• - "帮我 base 上转 10 usdc 给 0xAbc..." → INLINECODE27
• "帮我 solana 上转 1.5 sol 给 7xK..." → INLINECODE28
• "Send 50 USDC to 0xDef... on Base" → INLINECODE29
• "Transfer 0.1 ETH to 0x123..." → INLINECODE30
• "帮我 solana 上转 10 给 " → INLINECODE31

Extract: chain, token (name or address), amount, and destination address.

Autonomy

Token transfers are irreversible. Always confirm with the user before executing:

1. 1. Verify the chain, token, amount, and destination address with the user
2. Check wallet balance first to ensure sufficient funds
3. Only execute after explicit user confirmation

Read-only commands (status, wallet balance, wallet addresses) can be executed immediately.

NEVER

• - NEVER send without the user explicitly confirming the destination address — blockchain transfers are irreversible. Show the full address and ask the user to verify it before executing.
• NEVER send Solana tokens to a Base address, or vice versa — the chains are incompatible. Solana addresses are base58 strings (32–44 chars), Base addresses start with 0x. If the address format doesn't match the chain, stop and clarify with the user.
• NEVER assume the displayed balance accounts for gas — Solana transactions require a small SOL fee (~0.000005 SOL); Base transactions require ETH for gas. If the user is sending their entire balance, leave a small reserve or the transaction will fail.
• NEVER infer the chain from the token alone — USDC exists on both Solana and Base. Always confirm which chain the user intends before sending.
• NEVER send to an address the user typed casually without double-checking — if the user typed the address in the middle of a sentence or abbreviated it, ask them to paste the full address again to confirm.

Prerequisites

• - Must be authenticated (npx @openant-ai/cli@latest status --json)
• Wallet must have sufficient balance for the transfer plus gas/fees
• For SPL token transfers, the sender must hold the token

Error Handling

• - "No Turnkey credentials found" — Run authenticate-openant skill first
• "Insufficient balance" / "Attempt to debit" — Wallet lacks funds; check INLINECODE38
• "Unknown chain" — Supported: sol, base, INLINECODE41
• "No Base wallet found" / "No Solana wallet found" — Re-login to provision wallets
• "Cannot read decimals for mint" — Invalid or non-existent token mint address
• Transaction simulation failed — Check balance and recipient address validity
