transaction-receipt

What This Skill Does

The transaction-receipt skill is a powerful on-chain translator designed to convert cryptic blockchain transaction hashes into human-readable, actionable summaries. Whether you are tracking a simple wallet-to-wallet transfer, a complex DeFi swap, a token approval, or an NFT mint, this skill interprets the underlying data to provide a clear narrative of what occurred on the ledger. By integrating with the Tokenview API, it offers enriched, standardized data, while maintaining a robust public fallback mechanism to ensure you are never left without information if your API configuration is missing or invalid.

Installation

To integrate this capability into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/bevanding/transaction-receipt

Ensure that curl is installed on your system, as it is a mandatory dependency for performing network requests. For advanced validation, the skill can leverage jq, though it will gracefully revert to using python3 if jq is unavailable.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for power users and developers managing multiple wallets who need to verify transaction outcomes without navigating clunky block explorers. It is particularly useful for:

• Verification: Quickly confirming if an NFT mint was successful or if an approval transaction was broadcast.
• Auditing: Easily reviewing past DeFi interactions to see how much gas was spent or what assets were moved.
• Troubleshooting: Identifying if a transaction failed due to an error, a typo in the hash, or network congestion, providing friendly feedback instead of raw JSON data.

Example Prompts

1. "Can you tell me what happened in this transaction? 0x8a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3n4o5p6q7r8s9t0u1v2w3x4y5z6a7b8c9d0e1f"
2. "Check the status of transaction hash 7776d333075253018260273a5a7783350415a7703350415a7703350415a77033"
3. "Summarize this transaction for me: 0x5a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3n4o5p6q7r8s9t0u1v2w3x4y5z6a7b8c9d0e1f"

Tips & Limitations

• Rate Limiting: To ensure stable performance and avoid being blacklisted by public nodes, the skill enforces a limit of 30 lookups per hour. You can adjust the location of your rate-limit log file by modifying the TRANSACTION_RECEIPT_RATE_FILE environment variable.
• API Keys: While the skill works out of the box, obtaining a free key from tokenview.io is highly recommended for richer, more reliable payloads.
• Privacy: We prioritize your security. The skill will never ask you to paste your full API key into a chat window. Always ensure your keys are stored securely within your environment variables or OpenClaw settings.
