What is Etherlink?
The Etherlink skill provides a robust interface for AI agents to engage with the Etherlink blockchain, a high-performance Layer 2 solution that brings EVM compatibility to Tezos. By integrating this skill through the Openclaw Skills framework, developers can leverage a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to perform complex web3 operations including balance inquiries, transaction execution, and smart contract interactions.
This skill is essential for developers building decentralized applications or automated financial agents that require reliable access to Etherlink Mainnet and Shadownet. It simplifies the complexities of blockchain communication, allowing for natural language commands to trigger precise on-chain actions while maintaining the technical nuances of the Etherlink protocol, such as its native XTZ currency and legacy gas pricing models.
Etherlink Use Cases
- Checking real-time XTZ balances for wallet addresses on Etherlink Mainnet.
- Sending transactions and transferring native assets across the Tezos L2 network.
- Interacting with deployed smart contracts by calling read-only or state-changing functions.
- Monitoring network health and retrieving the latest block information for data indexing.
- Prototyping and testing web3 workflows on the Etherlink Shadownet testnet environment.
How Etherlink Works
- The AI agent connects to the Etherlink MCP server using a local Bun-based execution environment.
- The skill authenticates transactions using a securely provided EVM private key stored in environment variables.
- Based on user prompts, the agent selects the appropriate network target, such as Chain ID 42793 for Mainnet.
- The skill maps natural language requests to standard JSON-RPC methods like eth_call, eth_getBalance, or eth_sendRawTransaction.
- Blockchain responses are parsed and presented back to the user, providing a transparent view of on-chain data and transaction statuses.
Etherlink Setup
To integrate this capability into your agent using Openclaw Skills, update your MCP configuration file with the following server definition:
{
"mcpServers": {
"etherlink": {
"command": "bun",
"args": ["run", "/path/to/etherlink-mcp-server/src/index.ts"],
"env": {
"EVM_PRIVATE_KEY": "your-private-key-here"
}
}
}
}
Ensure you have the Etherlink MCP server source files locally and the Bun runtime installed. For testnet operations, use the Shadownet faucet to acquire XTZ.
Etherlink Data Schema & Taxonomy
The Etherlink skill organizes blockchain data according to the following schema:
| Attribute | Description | Values |
|---|---|---|
| Network Name | Primary identifier for the target chain | etherlink, etherlink-shadownet |
| Chain ID | Numeric EVM chain identifier | 42793 (Mainnet), 127823 (Shadownet) |
| Native Asset | The primary token used for gas and value | XTZ (18 decimals) |
| RPC URL | The endpoint used for chain communication | node.mainnet.etherlink.com |
| Gas Model | Supported fee market type | Legacy (No EIP-1559 support) |
Etherlink Advanced Features
- Support for debug_traceTransaction to facilitate deep contract execution analysis and troubleshooting.
- Full compatibility with Tezos L1 bridges for cross-layer asset deposits and withdrawals.
- Automated gas estimation and pricing for reliable transaction inclusion on the L2.
- Comprehensive support for EVM-standard log retrieval and event monitoring via eth_getLogs.
- Optimized for public RPC rate limits with built-in handling for up to 1000 requests per minute.
