gas-tracker

What This Skill Does

The gas-tracker skill is a robust, multi-chain utility designed for OpenClaw users to monitor real-time transaction costs across major blockchain networks, including Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Optimism. By providing tiered fee estimations (Slow, Standard, and Fast), it enables users to optimize their on-chain interactions, ensuring transactions are executed efficiently while minimizing unnecessary expenses. This tool utilizes a redundant data architecture, pulling from sources like Blocknative and Etherchain, with built-in failover mechanisms to ensure you always have access to reliable price data. Each successful query incurs a nominal fee of 0.001 USDT, which is handled automatically through the integrated SkillPay API, ensuring a seamless experience without manual payment overhead.

Installation

To integrate the gas-tracker into your environment, use the official clawhub CLI tool provided by OpenClaw. Open your terminal and execute the following command:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/deeplearning1993/gas-tracker

Once installed, ensure your OpenClaw agent is authorized to interact with the SkillPay payment gateway. The skill will automatically configure the necessary endpoints to facilitate the 0.001 USDT fee deductions per query.

Use Cases

This skill is indispensable for DeFi traders, NFT collectors, and developers who interact with smart contracts daily. Users can check the current network congestion before initiating a large trade or minting an NFT to avoid high-fee spikes. It is also useful for cross-chain bridge users who need to compare costs across different networks before deciding where to route their assets. Furthermore, it serves as a reliable auditing tool to verify that the gas fees suggested by wallets match real-time network conditions.

Example Prompts

1. "gas费 eth当前价格是多少？"
2. "gas tracker check bsc"
3. "Is the Polygon network busy right now? I need to know the gas price."

Tips & Limitations

The gas-tracker relies on external API providers. While it features multi-source redundancy, network latency can occasionally affect data freshness during extreme volatility. We recommend treating the returned values as estimations rather than guaranteed execution fees. If your balance is below 0.001 USDT, the skill will automatically provide a payment link to top up your account before displaying the data. Always maintain a small amount of USDT in your wallet to prevent service interruptions during urgent transactions.
