README (SKILL.md)

DeepBook CLI Skill

Use this skill when the user wants to use deepbook end to end: market data, wallet/config setup, and on-chain execution (spot, swap, manager, margin).

Installation

Check if deepbook is installed:

deepbook --version

If not, install it:

npm install -g deepbook-cli

Setup

  1. Work from the deepbook-cli project directory.
  2. Ensure ~/.deepbook/config.json exists (auto-created on first run).
  3. Configure global defaults in ~/.deepbook (works from any path).
  4. Optional one-off overrides can still be provided via global flags.

mainnet/testnet are aliases used consistently for both provider-side reads/streams and on-chain RPC.

  • deepbook margin close \x3Cpool> --full --non-reduce-only
  • deepbook margin close \x3Cpool> --side \x3Cbuy|sell> --quantity \x3Cq> --reduce-only --no-repay

Swap vs spot market buy

  • Swap (deepbook swap quote-for-base) is a direct pool swap with exact-input semantics.
  • Spot market buy (deepbook spot buy \x3Cpool> --quantity ...) is an orderbook market order and uses a balance manager.
  • CLI output now includes execution.kind and execution.type/direction so the mode is explicit.

Safety defaults

  • Prefer --dry-run first for all state-changing commands.
  • Validate pool key and manager object ID before placing/canceling orders.
  • SUI-involved deposit/collateral paths split from gas coin inside the transaction automatically.
  • Never print or log private keys.
  • Margin manager type safety:
    • Margin managers are generic typed objects: MarginManager\x3CBase, Quote>.
    • The margin manager type must match the exact pool pair being traded.
    • Example: MarginManager\x3CDEEP,USDC> works with DEEP_USDC, not DEEP_SUI.
  • Margin manager resolution behavior:
    • If --margin-manager is omitted, CLI auto-selects a compatible manager for that pool, or creates one in-transaction if none exists.
    • If --margin-manager is provided, CLI treats it as explicit and strict: it must match signer + pool; no fallback or auto-create is performed.
  • Internal margin fee buffer behavior:
    • Margin market/limit orders auto-deposit a fee buffer before placing the order.
    • With --no-pay-with-deep, buffer is deposited in trade asset collateral (base for sell, quote for buy).
    • Without --no-pay-with-deep, buffer is deposited as DEEP into the margin manager.
  • Full-close quantity normalization:
    • deepbook margin close \x3Cpool> --full now auto-normalizes inferred quantity to pool lot-size/min-size.
    • If reduce-only full close cannot satisfy lot-size exactly, CLI auto-switches to non-reduce-only and rounds up, then repays debt in the same transaction.
    • If user explicitly passes --reduce-only, CLI keeps reduce-only semantics and errors when full close cannot be represented as a valid lot-size quantity.

End-to-end spot trading flow (fund -> buy -> withdraw)

Use this when executing a real spot trade through a balance manager.

  1. Discover balance managers:
    • deepbook manager ls
  2. If none exist, create one:
    • deepbook manager create
  3. Deposit quote coin to manager (for DEEP_SUI buy, fund SUI):
    • deepbook manager deposit --coin SUI --amount 1 --manager \x3Cid>
  4. Optional balance check:
    • deepbook manager balance --coin SUI --manager \x3Cid>
  5. Simulate buy first:
    • deepbook spot buy DEEP_SUI --quantity 38 --manager \x3Cid> --no-pay-with-deep --dry-run
  6. Execute live buy:
    • deepbook spot buy DEEP_SUI --quantity 38 --manager \x3Cid> --no-pay-with-deep
  7. Withdraw purchased asset to signer address (or explicit recipient):
    • deepbook manager withdraw --coin DEEP --amount 38 --manager \x3Cid>
    • optional recipient: --recipient \x3Caddress>
  8. Verify manager balance:
    • deepbook manager balance --coin DEEP --manager \x3Cid>

Spot trade troubleshooting

  • MoveAbort ... balance_manager::withdraw_with_proof code=3 means manager available balance is too low.
  • This includes fees/reserved amounts, not just raw deposited balance.
  • For spot buys, ensure quote coin is funded in manager (for DEEP_SUI, quote is SUI).
  • If fees are attempted in DEEP and manager lacks DEEP, either deposit DEEP or pass --no-pay-with-deep.
  • When manager is omitted, CLI resolves dynamically:
    • one manager found -> uses it
    • none found -> error
    • multiple found -> require --manager \x3Cid>

Typical workflow

  1. Inspect pools/orderbook (deepbook spot pools, deepbook margin pools, deepbook orderbook ...).
  2. Confirm manager ID (deepbook manager ls).
  3. Simulate order (deepbook spot buy ... --dry-run).
  4. Execute live order (same command without --dry-run).
  5. Monitor with deepbook orderbook --watch and deepbook stream trades ....
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent for using a trading CLI, but exercise caution before installing or running it: 1) 'npm install -g deepbook-cli' will install a package from the public npm registry — verify the package name, publisher, and source code (or prefer a pinned version) before installing globally. 2) The CLI will ask to import or use private keys and API keys; never paste sensitive keys into an untrusted environment. Use --dry-run and test on testnet first. 3) Consider installing and running the CLI in an isolated environment (container or VM), inspect the package source, and use ephemeral keys or read-only API keys when possible. 4) If you need higher assurance, ask the publisher/source for a homepage/repository or for signed release artifacts; absence of a homepage lowers confidence.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: deepbook-cli Version: 0.0.1 The skill is designed to operate a financial CLI tool (`deepbook-cli`) for cryptocurrency trading and account management. While it involves inherently high-risk operations such as installing a global npm package (`npm install -g deepbook-cli` in SKILL.md), managing configuration files in `~/.deepbook`, and handling private keys and API keys (via `import-key`, `set-read-key`, `set-stream-key` commands), these capabilities are directly aligned with the stated purpose of a trading skill. The `SKILL.md` file explicitly includes 'Safety defaults' such as 'Never print or log private keys' and recommends `--dry-run` for state-changing commands, indicating an awareness of security best practices. There is no evidence of intentional harmful behavior, data exfiltration, persistence mechanisms, obfuscation, or malicious prompt injection attempts against the AI agent within the provided files.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description describe a CLI for market data and on‑chain trading; the SKILL.md contains only CLI usage, config locations (~/.deepbook), and commands for spot/swap/margin/manager operations — all directly related to the stated purpose. There are no unrelated credential or service demands in metadata.
Instruction Scope
Instructions focus on using the deepbook CLI and its config under ~/.deepbook. They explicitly instruct installing the npm package and performing state-changing commands (buy/sell/deposit/withdraw/import-key). The skill references private-key and apiKey handling (import-key, --private-key, --stdin) — appropriate for a trading CLI but sensitive; SKILL.md does advise not to print private keys and to prefer --dry-run as a safety default.
Install Mechanism
No formal install spec in the registry; the runtime instructions tell the agent to run 'npm install -g deepbook-cli'. Installing a global npm package is a normal way to obtain a CLI but carries moderate risk because the package source/homepage is not provided in the skill metadata. There's no pinned version or verification step shown.
Credentials
The skill requests no env vars or credentials in the metadata, but the CLI workflow requires handling private keys and API keys (via flags or stdin). That is proportionate to a trading CLI, but the skill does not declare a primary credential or required config paths beyond ~/.deepbook, so users should be aware secrets will be entered/managed by the CLI rather than provided via declared env vars.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is instruction-only (no persistent background hooks). It writes/reads user config at ~/.deepbook and may install a global npm package (which modifies system state). Nothing indicates the skill will modify other skills or system-wide agent settings.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install deepbook-cli
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /deepbook-cli
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
