handling-transactions
Token transactions and wallet integration for XMTP agents. Use when sending USDC, creating transaction requests, or handling transaction confirmations. Triggers on USDC transfer, wallet calls, or transaction reference.
Best use case
handling-transactions is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Token transactions and wallet integration for XMTP agents. Use when sending USDC, creating transaction requests, or handling transaction confirmations. Triggers on USDC transfer, wallet calls, or transaction reference.
Teams using handling-transactions should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.

# XMTP transactions
Send and receive token transactions using wallet_sendCalls (EIP-5792) specification.
## When to apply
Reference these guidelines when:
- Sending USDC or other tokens
- Creating transaction requests
- Handling transaction confirmations
- Checking token balances
- Working with smart contract wallets
## Rule categories by priority
| Priority | Category | Impact | Prefix |
|----------|----------|--------|--------|
| 1 | Send | CRITICAL | `send-` |
| 2 | Receive | CRITICAL | `receive-` |
| 3 | Balance | HIGH | `balance-` |
## Quick reference
### Send (CRITICAL)
- `send-usdc-transfer` - Create USDC transfer requests
- `send-wallet-calls` - Send wallet_sendCalls messages
### Receive (CRITICAL)
- `receive-transaction-reference` - Handle transaction confirmations
### Balance (HIGH)
- `balance-check` - Check USDC balance
## Supported networks
| Network | Chain ID | USDC Address |
|---------|----------|--------------|
| Base Sepolia | 84532 | `0x036CbD53842c5426634e7929541eC2318f3dCF7e` |
| Base Mainnet | 8453 | `0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913` |
## Quick start
```typescript
import { validHex } from "@xmtp/agent-sdk";
// Check balance using viem
const balance = await getUSDCBalance("base-sepolia", validHex(address));
// Create USDC transfer calls (EIP-5792)
const calls = createUSDCTransferCalls(
"base-sepolia",
validHex(fromAddress),
validHex(toAddress),
1000000 // 1 USDC (6 decimals)
);
await ctx.conversation.sendWalletSendCalls(calls);
```
## Implementation snippets
**USDC token config:**
```typescript
const USDC_TOKENS: Record<string, { address: string; decimals: number }> = {
"base-sepolia": { address: "0x036CbD53842c5426634e7929541eC2318f3dCF7e", decimals: 6 },
"base-mainnet": { address: "0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913", decimals: 6 },
};
```
**Get USDC balance:**
```typescript
import { createPublicClient, formatUnits, http } from "viem";
import { baseSepolia, base } from "viem/chains";
const getUSDCBalance = async (networkId: string, address: HexString): Promise<string> => {
const token = USDC_TOKENS[networkId];
const client = createPublicClient({
chain: networkId === "base-mainnet" ? base : baseSepolia,
transport: http(),
});
const balance = await client.readContract({
address: token.address as HexString,
abi: [{ inputs: [{ name: "account", type: "address" }], name: "balanceOf", outputs: [{ type: "uint256" }], stateMutability: "view", type: "function" }],
functionName: "balanceOf",
args: [address],
});
return formatUnits(balance, token.decimals);
};
```
**Create USDC transfer calls:**
```typescript
import { toHex } from "viem";
const createUSDCTransferCalls = (
networkId: string, from: HexString, to: string, amount: number
): WalletSendCalls => {
const token = USDC_TOKENS[networkId];
const data = `0xa9059cbb${to.slice(2).padStart(64, "0")}${BigInt(amount).toString(16).padStart(64, "0")}`;
return {
version: "1.0",
from,
chainId: toHex(networkId === "base-mainnet" ? 8453 : 84532),
calls: [{ to: token.address as HexString, data: validHex(data) }],
};
};
```
