Wayfinder

DeFi trading, yield strategies, and portfolio management powered by poetry run wayfinder Paths.

Pre-Flight Check

Before running any commands, verify that poetry run wayfinder Paths is installed and reachable:

# SDK location (override by setting WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH)
export WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH="${WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH:-$HOME/wayfinder-paths-sdk}"

# Check if wayfinder-paths-sdk directory exists
if [ ! -d "$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH" ]; then
  echo "ERROR: wayfinder-paths-sdk is not installed at: $WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH"
  echo "Set WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH or run the First-Time Setup below."
  exit 1
fi

# Config path (override by setting WAYFINDER_CONFIG_PATH)
export WAYFINDER_CONFIG_PATH="${WAYFINDER_CONFIG_PATH:-$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH/config.json}"

# Check if the config exists
if [ ! -f "$WAYFINDER_CONFIG_PATH" ]; then
  echo "ERROR: config not found at $WAYFINDER_CONFIG_PATH. Run the First-Time Setup below."
  exit 1
fi

# Check if the CLI is functional
cd "$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH"
if ! poetry run wayfinder --help > /dev/null 2>&1; then
  echo "ERROR: poetry run wayfinder CLI is not working. Run 'cd $WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH && poetry install' to fix."
  exit 1
fi

echo "poetry run wayfinder Paths is installed and ready."

If either check fails, follow the First-Time Setup instructions below before proceeding.

Quick Start

First-Time Setup

Important: The SDK must be installed from GitHub via git clone. Do NOT install from PyPI (pip install wayfinder-paths will not work).

Before starting: You need a Wayfinder API key (format: wk_...). Get one at https://strategies.wayfinder.ai. The guided setup will prompt you for this key.

# Clone wayfinder-paths-sdk from GitHub (required — do NOT pip install)
export WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH="${WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH:-$HOME/wayfinder-paths-sdk}"
if [ ! -d "$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH" ]; then
  git clone https://github.com/WayfinderFoundation/wayfinder-paths-sdk.git "$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH"
fi

cd "$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH"
poetry install

# Run guided setup (creates/updates config.json + local dev wallets + MCP config)
# You will need your API key from https://strategies.wayfinder.ai (format: wk_...)
python3 scripts/setup.py

Wallet security:

• NEVER output private keys or seed phrases into the conversation. These are secrets — they must stay on the machine, never in chat.
• For a long-running bot, prefer a seed phrase stored in your backend/secret manager rather than generating random wallets on the server.
• On first-time setup, the user should retrieve the seed phrase directly from their machine or secret manager. Only offer to display the seed phrase if the user explicitly confirms they cannot access the machine to retrieve it themselves.
• See references/setup.md for detailed wallet setup instructions.

Verify Setup

export WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH="${WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH:-$HOME/wayfinder-paths-sdk}"
export WAYFINDER_CONFIG_PATH="${WAYFINDER_CONFIG_PATH:-$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH/config.json}"
cd "$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH"
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://strategies
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://wallets
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://balances/main

Command Reference

All commands should be run from $WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH and require WAYFINDER_CONFIG_PATH (default: $WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH/config.json). All responses return {"ok": true, "result": {...}} on success or {"ok": false, "error": {"code": "...", "message": "..."}} on failure.

resource — Read MCP resources by URI

Read-only access to adapters, strategies, wallets, balances, tokens, and Hyperliquid market data via URI-based resources. Use --list to see all available resources and templates.

Asset/data sourcing rule: When the user asks you to look up token/pool/market/protocol data, first use Wayfinder’s adapter/strategy discovery resources (poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://adapters, wayfinder://adapters/{name}, wayfinder://strategies, wayfinder://tokens/*). Only fall back to other methods if Wayfinder doesn’t expose the required data or the user explicitly asks.

# List all available resources and templates
poetry run wayfinder resource --list

Static Resources

poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://adapters
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://strategies
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://wallets
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/prices
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/markets
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/spot-assets

Resource Templates

Token lookup order — always search or use gas endpoint first:

# 1. For native gas tokens (ETH, HYPE): use the gas endpoint
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/gas/ethereum    # ETH on Ethereum
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/gas/base        # ETH on Base
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/gas/hyperevm    # HYPE on HyperEVM

# 2. For ERC20 tokens: ALWAYS fuzzy search first
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/search/base/usdc
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/search/arbitrum/eth
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/search/ethereum/weth

# 3. Then resolve with the exact ID from search results
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/resolve/usd-coin-base

poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://adapters/moonwell_adapter
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://strategies/stablecoin_yield_strategy
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://wallets/main
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://balances/main
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://activity/main
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/main/state
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/main/spot
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/prices/ETH
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/book/ETH

wallets — Manage wallets and discover positions

Create, annotate, and discover cross-protocol positions. Use resource wayfinder://wallets to list wallets and resource wayfinder://wallets/{label} to get a single wallet.

Supported protocols for discover_portfolio: hyperliquid, hyperlend, moonwell, boros, pendle.

poetry run wayfinder wallets --action create --label my_new_strategy
poetry run wayfinder wallets --action discover_portfolio --wallet_label main --parallel
poetry run wayfinder wallets --action discover_portfolio --wallet_label main --protocols '["hyperliquid","moonwell"]'

Validations:

• create: label must be non-empty. Duplicate labels return the existing wallet (idempotent).
• annotate/discover_portfolio: must resolve a wallet address from wallet_label or wallet_address.
• annotate: all of protocol, annotate_action, tool, status are required.
• discover_portfolio with >= 3 protocols requires parallel=true or an explicit protocols filter (returns requires_confirmation otherwise).

quote_swap — Get a swap/bridge quote (read-only)

Returns a quote for swapping or bridging tokens. No on-chain effects.

Always resolve token IDs before calling quote_swap. Run poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/search/<chain>/<symbol> for each token first, then use the exact ID from the result. Do not pass raw symbols or guessed symbol-chain strings — they may resolve incorrectly or fail.

Note: Native gas tokens (e.g., unwrapped ETH) may fail in swaps with from_token_address: null. Use the wrapped ERC20 version instead (e.g., WETH). Search for it: resource wayfinder://tokens/search/<chain>/weth.

Bridging to a new chain for the first time: the wallet needs native gas on the destination chain before it can do anything. Bridge the native gas token (e.g. ETH) to the destination chain first, then bridge or swap for the target token. Use the native token IDs from the supported-chains table below (e.g. ethereum-base for ETH on Base).

• Use the native token IDs from the supported-chains table below when bridging gas (e.g. ethereum-base for ETH on Base, plasma-plasma for PLASMA on Plasma).

poetry run wayfinder quote_swap --wallet_label main --from_token usd-coin-base --to_token ethereum-base --amount 500
poetry run wayfinder quote_swap --wallet_label main --from_token "USDC-base" --to_token "ETH-base" --amount 1000 --slippage_bps 100

Errors: not_found (wallet), invalid_wallet, token_error, invalid_token (missing chain_id/address), invalid_amount, quote_error.

execute — Execute on-chain transactions

Execute swaps, token sends, or Hyperliquid deposits. This broadcasts transactions and can move real funds.

Hyperliquid deposit validations (critical):

• Amount must be >= 5 USDC (deposits below 5 are lost on the bridge).
• Hard-codes: token = Arbitrum USDC, recipient = HYPERLIQUID_BRIDGE_ADDRESS, chain = Arbitrum (42161).

Additional runtime validations:

• Wallet must have both address and private_key_hex.
• Token resolution must succeed (chain_id + token address required).
• Swap quotes must return a best_quote with calldata.
• For USDT-style tokens, a zero-allowance reset transaction is sent before approval.

# Swap
poetry run wayfinder execute --kind swap --wallet_label main --from_token usd-coin-base --to_token ethereum-base --amount 500

# Send tokens
poetry run wayfinder execute --kind send --wallet_label main --token usd-coin-base --recipient 0x... --amount 100

# Hyperliquid deposit (min 5 USDC)
poetry run wayfinder execute --kind hyperliquid_deposit --wallet_label main --amount 100

hyperliquid — Wait for Hyperliquid deposits/withdrawals

Wait for deposits or withdrawals to settle on Hyperliquid. For read-only queries (user state, prices, order books), use the resource command with Hyperliquid URIs.

poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid --action wait_for_deposit --wallet_label main --expected_increase 100
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid --action wait_for_withdrawal --wallet_label main

Read-only queries via resources:

# Perp positions + PnL
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/main/state

# Spot balances
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/main/spot

# All mid prices
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/prices

# Single coin price
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/prices/ETH

# Market metadata + funding rates
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/markets

# Spot asset metadata
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/spot-assets

# Order book
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://hyperliquid/book/ETH

hyperliquid_execute — Hyperliquid trading operations

Place/cancel orders, update leverage, and withdraw USDC. These operations are live and can place real orders / move real funds.

Key validations for place_order:

• Exactly one of size or usd_amount (not both, not neither).
• If usd_amount is used, usd_amount_kind is required.
• If usd_amount_kind=margin, then leverage is required.
• Limit orders require price > 0.
• After lot-size rounding, size must still be > 0.
• Builder fee is mandatory (auto-configured; approval is auto-submitted if needed).

# Market buy
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid_execute --action place_order --wallet_label main --coin ETH --is_buy true --usd_amount 200 --usd_amount_kind margin --leverage 5

# Spot buy
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid_execute --action place_order --wallet_label main --coin HYPE --is_spot true --is_buy true --usd_amount 20

# Limit sell
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid_execute --action place_order --wallet_label main --coin ETH --is_buy false --size 0.1 --price 4000 --order_type limit

# Close position (reduce-only)
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid_execute --action place_order --wallet_label main --coin ETH --is_buy false --size 0.5 --reduce_only

# Update leverage
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid_execute --action update_leverage --wallet_label main --coin ETH --leverage 5

# Cancel order
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid_execute --action cancel_order --wallet_label main --coin ETH --order_id 12345

# Withdraw USDC
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid_execute --action withdraw --wallet_label main --amount_usdc 100

# Transfer USDC between spot and perp wallets
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid_execute --action spot_to_perp_transfer --wallet_label main --amount_usdc 50
poetry run wayfinder hyperliquid_execute --action perp_to_spot_transfer --wallet_label main --amount_usdc 50

polymarket — Polymarket market + account reads

Read-only access to Polymarket markets, prices, order books, and user status.

Tradability filter: a market can be “found” but not tradable. Filter for enableOrderBook, acceptingOrders, active, closed != true, and non-empty clobTokenIds.

Action-specific requirements:

• status, bridge_status: require an account (via --account, --wallet_address, or --wallet_label).
• open_orders: requires --wallet_label and a wallet with private_key_hex in config.json (Level-2 auth). Optional: --token_id to filter.

# Search markets
poetry run wayfinder polymarket --action search --query "bitcoin above 100k" --limit 5

# User status (positions + balances)
poetry run wayfinder polymarket --action status --wallet_label main

# CLOB order book
poetry run wayfinder polymarket --action order_book --token_id 123456

polymarket_execute — Polymarket execution (bridge + orders)

Execute Polymarket actions (bridging and trading). This command is live (no dry-run flag).

Approvals + API creds: handled automatically before order placement (idempotent).

Collateral: Polymarket CLOB trading collateral is USDC.e on Polygon, not native Polygon USDC. Use bridge_deposit / bridge_withdraw to convert. These methods prefer a fast on-chain BRAP swap on Polygon when possible (sender == recipient); otherwise they fall back to the Polymarket Bridge service (method: "polymarket_bridge" in the result) and you can monitor via polymarket --action bridge_status.

Trade semantics:

• buy uses amount_usdc as collateral ($) to spend
• sell uses shares as shares to sell

Always require explicit user confirmation before running polymarket_execute.

# Bridge USDC -> USDC.e collateral (Polymarket)
poetry run wayfinder polymarket_execute --action bridge_deposit --wallet_label main --amount 10

# Buy shares by market slug + outcome
poetry run wayfinder polymarket_execute --action buy --wallet_label main --market_slug "some-market-slug" --outcome YES --amount_usdc 2

# Close a position (sells full size; resolves token_id from market slug)
poetry run wayfinder polymarket_execute --action close_position --wallet_label main --market_slug "some-market-slug" --outcome YES

run_strategy — Strategy lifecycle management

Run strategy actions: check status, analyze, quote, deposit, update, withdraw, or exit.

Amount parameter rules:

• For read-only analysis (analyze, snapshot, quote): use --amount_usdc
• For actual deposits (deposit): use --main_token_amount (required) + optionally --gas_token_amount
• The deposit token varies by strategy (USDC on Base for stablecoin_yield, USDC on Arbitrum for boros_hype, etc.)

poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://strategies
poetry run wayfinder run_strategy --strategy stablecoin_yield_strategy --action status
poetry run wayfinder run_strategy --strategy stablecoin_yield_strategy --action analyze --amount_usdc 100
poetry run wayfinder run_strategy --strategy stablecoin_yield_strategy --action quote --amount_usdc 100
poetry run wayfinder run_strategy --strategy stablecoin_yield_strategy --action deposit --main_token_amount 100 --gas_token_amount 0.01
poetry run wayfinder run_strategy --strategy stablecoin_yield_strategy --action update
poetry run wayfinder run_strategy --strategy stablecoin_yield_strategy --action withdraw
poetry run wayfinder run_strategy --strategy stablecoin_yield_strategy --action exit

Errors: invalid_request (empty strategy), not_found (missing manifest), not_supported (strategy lacks the method), strategy_error (runtime exception).

Note: withdraw liquidates positions but funds stay in the strategy wallet. exit transfers funds from the strategy wallet back to the main wallet. These are separate steps.

run_script — Execute sandboxed Python scripts

Run a local Python script in a subprocess. Scripts must live inside the runs directory ($WAYFINDER_RUNS_DIR or .wayfinder_runs/).

Validations:

• Script path must resolve to inside the runs directory (sandboxed — no arbitrary file execution).
• Must be a .py file.
• Must exist on disk.
• Output is truncated to 20,000 chars.

# Recommended: implement --dry-run / --force in your script and pass it via --args
poetry run wayfinder run_script --script_path .wayfinder_runs/my_flow.py --args '["--dry-run"]' --wallet_label main
poetry run wayfinder run_script --script_path .wayfinder_runs/my_flow.py --args '["--force"]' --wallet_label main

# With timeout
poetry run wayfinder run_script --script_path .wayfinder_runs/my_flow.py --wallet_label main --timeout_s 120

Config Structure

Config is loaded from $WAYFINDER_CONFIG_PATH (default: $WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH/config.json).

{
  "system": {
    "api_base_url": "https://strategies.wayfinder.ai/api/v1",
    "api_key": "wk_..."
  },
  "strategy": {
    "rpc_urls": {
      "1": ["https://eth.llamarpc.com"],
      "42161": ["https://arb1.arbitrum.io/rpc"],
      "8453": ["https://mainnet.base.org"],
      "999": ["https://rpc.hyperliquid.xyz/evm"]
    }
  },
  "wallets": [
    {
      "label": "main",
      "address": "0x...",
      "private_key_hex": "0x..."
    }
  ],
  "ccxt": {
    "aster": { "apiKey": "", "secret": "" },
    "binance": { "apiKey": "", "secret": "" }
  }
}

• system.api_key falls back to $WAYFINDER_API_KEY env var.
• Most write operations require a wallet entry with address + private_key_hex.

Token ID Format — ALWAYS SEARCH FIRST

CRITICAL: NEVER guess or construct token IDs. Always look up the correct token using the appropriate endpoint before using it in any command.

Three token endpoints — know which to use:

• tokens/search → fuzzy search (hits /blockchain/tokens/fuzzy/) — always use this first for ERC20 tokens
• tokens/resolve → exact lookup (hits /blockchain/tokens/detail/) — only use with an ID you got from search
• tokens/gas → native gas tokens (hits /blockchain/tokens/gas/) — use for ETH, HYPE, and other native tokens

Token IDs use <coingecko_id>-<chain_code> format (NOT symbol-chain):

• usd-coin-base (USDC on Base) — NOT usdc-base
• ethereum-arbitrum (ETH on Arbitrum) — NOT ETH-arbitrum
• usdt0-arbitrum (USDT on Arbitrum) — NOT USDT-arbitrum
• hyperliquid-hyperevm (HYPE on HyperEVM) — NOT HYPE-hyperevm

You cannot reliably guess coingecko IDs from token symbols. For example, ETH's coingecko ID is ethereum, USDC's is usd-coin, HYPE's is hyperliquid. These are not derivable from the symbol alone.

Native gas tokens are best discovered via tokens/gas/<chain_code>. Use the table below as a convenient reference, but prefer tokens/gas when in doubt.

Valid chain codes (common): ethereum, base, arbitrum, polygon, bsc, avalanche, plasma, hyperevm. Note: mainnet is NOT a valid chain code — use ethereum instead.

Supported chains

Before every swap, send, or token operation:

# For native gas tokens (ETH, HYPE):
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/gas/<chain_code>

# For ERC20 tokens — REQUIRED: fuzzy search first
poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/search/<chain_code>/<symbol>
# Then use the exact token ID from the search result

Sizing for Perp Orders

When a user says "$X at Yx leverage", clarify:

• --usd_amount_kind margin = $X is collateral (notional = X * leverage)
• --usd_amount_kind notional = $X is position size

--usd_amount and --size are mutually exclusive. When using --usd_amount with --usd_amount_kind margin, --leverage is required.

Safety

• NEVER output private keys or seed phrases into the conversation. These are secrets that must stay on the machine. Only offer to display a seed phrase if the user explicitly confirms they cannot access the machine to retrieve it themselves.
• Execution commands are live. Require explicit user confirmation before running execute, hyperliquid_execute, polymarket_execute, or any script that broadcasts transactions.
• NEVER guess or fabricate token IDs. Before any token operation (swap, send, quote, balance check):
  • For native gas tokens (ETH, HYPE): use poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/gas/<chain_code>
  • For ERC20 tokens: use poetry run wayfinder resource wayfinder://tokens/search/<chain_code>/<query> (fuzzy search) and use the exact token ID from the result
  • Do not construct IDs by combining symbols with chain names — the coingecko ID is unpredictable. Do not call tokens/resolve with a guessed ID — it hits a different API than search.
• Bridging to a new chain (first time): bridge native gas to the destination chain first (use the supported-chains table or tokens/gas/<chain_code>), then bridge/swap for the target asset.
• Start with small test amounts.
• Withdraw and exit are separate steps: withdraw liquidates positions, exit transfers funds home.
• Hyperliquid deposits must be >= 5 USDC — amounts below 5 are lost on the bridge.
• Market order slippage is capped at 25% (--slippage 0.25).
• Scripts are sandboxed to the runs directory — no arbitrary file execution.

Custom Scripts via the Coding Interface

For any operation that goes beyond a single CLI command, you SHOULD write a custom Python script. The wayfinder-paths-sdk provides a full coding interface — use it whenever you need multi-step flows, conditional logic, batched operations, or protocol combinations.

When to Write a Script

• Multi-step atomic flows — operations that must succeed together
• Custom logic — conditional execution based on market state
• Batched operations — multiple protocol interactions in sequence
• Protocol combinations — bridging multiple adapters in one flow
• Complex calculations — position sizing, rebalancing, PnL analysis
• Anything the user asks that isn't a single CLI call

Script Location

All generated scripts must be saved to .wayfinder_runs/ inside the SDK directory:

$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH/.wayfinder_runs/my_script.py

This directory is sandboxed — run_script only executes scripts inside it. Create it if it doesn't exist:

mkdir -p "$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH/.wayfinder_runs"

Referencing the SDK Source

Before writing any script, pull the detailed reference docs for the adapter or strategy you're working with. The SDK ships comprehensive skill docs covering method signatures, gotchas, unit conventions, and execution patterns.

Use the reference script (bash or PowerShell):

# List available topics
./wayfinder/scripts/pull-sdk-ref.sh --list

# Pull docs for specific adapters (supports multiple topics)
./wayfinder/scripts/pull-sdk-ref.sh moonwell
./wayfinder/scripts/pull-sdk-ref.sh boros hyperliquid
./wayfinder/scripts/pull-sdk-ref.sh strategies

# Pull everything
./wayfinder/scripts/pull-sdk-ref.sh --all

# Check the pinned SDK version
./wayfinder/scripts/pull-sdk-ref.sh --version

# Override with a specific commit
./wayfinder/scripts/pull-sdk-ref.sh --commit abc123 moonwell

# Windows
.\wayfinder\scripts\pull-sdk-ref.ps1 moonwell
.\wayfinder\scripts\pull-sdk-ref.ps1 -All
.\wayfinder\scripts\pull-sdk-ref.ps1 -Version
.\wayfinder\scripts\pull-sdk-ref.ps1 -Commit abc123 moonwell

Available topics: strategies, setup, boros, brap, hyperlend, hyperliquid, polymarket, moonwell, pendle, uniswap, projectx, data

The SDK ref is tracked in wayfinder/sdk-version.md (default: main). The pull script checks out that ref when reading docs, then restores the SDK to its previous state.

Always run this before writing a script — the docs cover critical details like:

• Exact method signatures and required parameters
• Unit conventions (raw base units vs human-readable, wei vs native)
• Gotchas (e.g., unlend() takes mToken amounts not underlying, withdrawal cooldowns, funding sign conventions)
• Execution patterns and safety rails
• Token/contract addresses

You can also read the adapter source code directly:

$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH/wayfinder_paths/adapters/          # All adapter implementations
$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH/wayfinder_paths/mcp/scripting.py   # get_adapter() helper
$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH/wayfinder_paths/strategies/        # Strategy implementations

Quick Start

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import asyncio
from wayfinder_paths.mcp.scripting import get_adapter
from wayfinder_paths.adapters.moonwell_adapter import MoonwellAdapter

async def main():
    adapter = get_adapter(MoonwellAdapter, "main")  # Auto-wires config + signing
    success, result = await adapter.lend(mtoken="0x...", amount=100_000_000)
    print(f"Result: {result}" if success else f"Error: {result}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Testing Workflow

Always test before live execution. Follow this workflow:

1. Write the script to .wayfinder_runs/
2. Safe run — run the script in a non-fund-moving mode first (recommended: implement --dry-run / --force in your script and pass it via --args):

   cd "$WAYFINDER_SDK_PATH"
   poetry run wayfinder run_script --script_path .wayfinder_runs/my_script.py --args '["--dry-run"]' --wallet_label main
   

3. Review the output. Verify the operations, amounts, and addresses are correct.
4. Live execution — only after confirming the safe run looks right, run with --force:

   poetry run wayfinder run_script --script_path .wayfinder_runs/my_script.py --args '["--force"]' --wallet_label main
   

Never skip the safe-run step for scripts that move funds.

Error Handling

All errors return structured JSON: {"ok": false, "error": {"code": "...", "message": "...", "details": ...}}.

Error Categories

Validation Errors — bad input, fixable by the caller

Resource Errors — something doesn't exist

API & Integration Errors — upstream service failures

Execution Errors — on-chain failures

Error Details Object

The details field varies by error code and may contain:

Presenting Errors to Users

When an error is returned, follow this pattern:

1. Translate the code — don't show raw error codes. Map to plain language (e.g., invalid_token -> "I couldn't find that token").
2. Include the actionable fix — every error above has a recovery path. Always tell the user what to do next.
3. Show relevant details — if details.candidates exists, list the closest token matches. If details.revert_reason exists, explain what the contract rejected.
4. Offer to retry — for transient errors (token_error, balance_error, quote_error, activity_error, price_error), offer to retry. For validation errors, show the corrected command.

Common User-Facing Issues

Best Practices

Security

1. Never share private keys or commit config.json
2. Start with small test amounts
3. Use dedicated wallets per strategy for isolation
4. Verify addresses before large transfers
5. Use stop losses for leverage trading

Trading

1. Always quote before executing swaps
2. Specify chain for lesser-known tokens
3. Consider gas costs (use Base for small amounts)
4. Check balance before trades
5. Use limit orders for better prices on Hyperliquid
