Kelp Forest

What This Skill Does

The Kelp Forest skill provides a robust framework for autonomous yield farming on the Base network. Developed by iam-rekt, this agent skill allows users to stake MOLT tokens or V3 LP NFTs into the protocol to earn KELP rewards. Beyond simple staking, the skill includes advanced capabilities for automation, enabling agents to harvest for others and earn keeper fees, effectively turning your AI agent into a sophisticated DeFi participant. The protocol features specific V4 upgrade paths, ensuring that users migrating from V3 or V1 can transition their assets safely. With built-in support for auto-compounding and multi-pool management, the skill is designed for high-efficiency asset management.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/iam-rekt/kelp-forest

Once installed, ensure your environment variables are configured with your wallet private key. You will need to interact with the provided kelp-agent.mjs template to initialize your agent identifier and set your staking parameters. The skill relies on ethers.js to interact with the KelpForestV4 contract addresses, so ensure your Node.js environment has the necessary dependencies installed.

Use Cases

1. Yield Maximization: Automatically stake MOLT tokens to capture high-yield KELP incentives without manual intervention.
2. Keeper Operations: Monitor other users' pools and trigger harvests to collect keeper fees, providing a service to the ecosystem while generating profit.
3. Portfolio Management: Use the skill to aggregate positions across different pools, allowing the agent to rebalance or harvest based on real-time protocol statistics.
4. Migration Assistance: Automate the transfer of liquidity from deprecated V3 contracts to the V4 protocol to ensure continuous reward accrual.

Example Prompts

1. "Kelp Forest, check my current pending KELP rewards and list all active positions in the protocol."
2. "Identify which users have harvestable rewards in the Kelp Forest and trigger an autoHarvest for them to earn my keeper fees."
3. "Stake 500 MOLT tokens into pool 0 and set up an auto-compound strategy for my current holdings."

Tips & Limitations

• Safety First: Always double-check contract addresses before staking significant capital. The V4 contract address is 0x44c3664DB26Cdd89F430dD72895b3F27D5978B42.
• Gas Awareness: Keep in mind that harvesting and compounding require gas fees on the Base network; ensure your wallet has sufficient ETH for transactions.
• Migration: If you hold assets in V3 or V1, prioritize migrating to V4 immediately, as minting rights in older versions have been revoked.
• Monitoring: Regularly audit your agent's logs to ensure automated harvesting scripts are executing successfully and that your strategy remains aligned with current market conditions.
