asgcard

What This Skill Does

The asgcard skill provides AI agents with the ability to autonomously issue, fund, and manage virtual MasterCards. By leveraging the x402 protocol on the Stellar blockchain, this skill bridges the gap between decentralized finance and traditional commerce. When an agent requires payment for external services, it can use this skill to create a virtual card, load it with USDC, and execute the payment, receiving verifiable on-chain proof for every transaction. It essentially gives your agent a 'digital wallet' capable of interacting with the global financial system.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, use the command: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/asgcompute/agentcard. Prior to running the skill, ensure your agent has access to the Stellar wallet infrastructure by executing npx @asgcard/cli onboard -y. This generates your ~/.asgcard/wallet.json configuration file, which stores your private credentials securely. Once onboarded, your agent gains access to nine MCP tools, including card creation, funding, lifecycle management (freeze/unfreeze), and balance verification. Always ensure your Stellar wallet is pre-funded with sufficient USDC to cover both the card issuance fees and the intended transaction amounts.

Use Cases

This skill is designed for agents that require autonomous purchasing power. It is ideal for paying for AI API credits (e.g., Anthropic, OpenAI), provisioning cloud infrastructure such as DigitalOcean droplets or Vercel deployments, and subscribing to SaaS tools. Because the cards function as standard MasterCards, they are compatible with any online merchant that accepts traditional credit cards, making them perfect for automating procurement tasks that were previously restricted to human oversight.

Example Prompts

1. 'Create a new virtual MasterCard with a $50 spending limit to cover the subscription for the new AI monitoring service.'
2. 'List all my current virtual cards and tell me the remaining balance on the card ending in 4421.'
3. 'The cloud server deployment failed due to insufficient funds; please top up my primary card with 20 USDC from my wallet.'

Tips & Limitations

When using asgcard, always practice proper wallet security. Since this skill involves real financial assets, ensure the wallet.json file is protected by restricted file permissions. Note that card creation and funding involve blockchain transactions, which are subject to network latency and gas fees. Always check get_pricing before executing large operations to ensure cost-efficiency. Finally, treat the get_card_details output with care, as it provides sensitive information like PAN and CVV; only allow your agent to access these details within secure, encrypted contexts.
