skills/nano-generate-qr/SKILL.md
Generate an ASCII QR code for a Nano (XNO) address, optionally with an amount. Use this skill whenever the user wants to share a Nano address visually, create a donation or tip-jar link, make an XNO payment scannable, or needs a QR for any Nano-related purpose — even if they just say 'make a QR' or 'how do I accept a tip in Nano?'

CLI Execution Priority: Do not assume
xno-skillsis installed globally. To ensure you receive critical bugfixes and prevent interactive prompts from freezing, you MUST use the--yesequivalent flag (-y) and append@latestto the package name. Always use the following order of priority:
bunx -y xno-skills@latest <command>pnpm dlx xno-skills@latest <command>npx -y xno-skills@latest <command>For Nano actions, prefer MCP tools first, then
xno-skillsCLI verbs. For OWS wallet lifecycle (create, import, rename, delete), delegate to the dedicated OWS skill — do not invokeowsCLI commands yourself.Example:
bunx -y xno-skills@latest walletsorbunx -y xno-skills@latest rpc account-balance <address>
Safety & Best Practices:
- State Verification: Always verify an account's state (balance and frontier) via RPC before manually building a block. Do not hallucinate previous hashes.
- Command Discovery: Always use
--help(e.g.,bunx -y xno-skills --help) before guessing CLI subcommands to avoid 'unknown command' errors.- Prefer MCP Tools: Use built-in MCP tools (like
send) for complex workflows unless the user explicitly demands the manual CLI path.- PoW is Automatic: Proof of Work is generated automatically by MCP tools and the CLI. Never attempt to generate or supply PoW manually.
- Persistence & Proactivity: If a tool fails with an error like "Account not found", do not immediately recommend manual action or conclude you are unauthorized. Troubleshoot the protocol state (e.g., check for pending funds) and use the correct tool for that state (e.g.,
receiveto open an account).- No Custom Scripts: NEVER write custom Node.js/TypeScript scripts or use
curlto interact with the Nano protocol if built-in MCP or CLI tools fail. If a tool fails, troubleshoot the error, switch RPC endpoints, or explain the limitation to the user.- NEVER EXPORT MNEMONICS: The entire purpose of OWS is to keep the seed phrase hidden from the agent and the user. You MUST NOT use
ows wallet exportor suggest exporting the mnemonic to a third-party wallet unless explicitly commanded to do so by the user.- Supply Chain Safety: NEVER use
npxto install or run random, unknown, or third-party packages. Only use the approved tools provided in this project (xno-skills@latestand@open-wallet-standard/core). If a task cannot be performed with these tools, do not seek external npm packages as a workaround.
Generates a terminal-friendly ASCII QR code for a Nano address, optionally including an amount.
bunx -y xno-skills qr nano_1abc123...
bunx -y xno-skills qr nano_1abc123... --amount-xno 1.5
bunx -y xno-skills qr nano_1abc123... --amount-xno 1.5 --json
Returns:
content: the canonical nano: URI (nano:<address>?amount=<raw>)qr: the ASCII QR blockCRITICAL INSTRUCTION FOR AGENTS regarding truncation: AI agents often have their stdout streams truncated (e.g.,
<truncated 14 lines>). If you need to print a QR code to the user, DO NOT run the command normally and paste the truncated output. Instead, either:
- Run with
--jsonand explicitly parse out the"qr"field (which contains the full string).- Pipe the output to a temporary file (
> /tmp/qr.txt) and use your file-reading tool (e.g.,view_fileorcat) to read the complete string without truncation, then present it to the user.
--amount-xno value is interpreted as XNO (Nano), not raw.Use this when the user needs to receive XNO (fund their own wallet):
--amount-xno; the resulting nano: URI includes the raw amount parameter.In interactive flows, ask for:
If the user asks to send XNO "to the agent" or "to you", first ensure a wallet exists by delegating to the separate OWS skill (for creation/import), then use wallets via the nano-mcp-wallet skill to discover the Nano address and generate a QR code for it. Subsequently call receive from the nano-mcp-wallet skill to pocket the funds once they are sent.
tools
Nano (XNO) cryptocurrency wallet operations, transaction analysis, and explorer lookups. Use for send/receive, balances, pending funds, address validation, unit conversion, tx/hash/account lookup, explorer links, and Nano block-lattice questions. Prefer xno-mcp first; use xno-skills CLI as fallback.
testing
Verify an off-chain message signature (NOMS / ORIS-001 standard) against a Nano (XNO) address or public key. Use this skill whenever the user presents a signed message and wants to verify its authenticity, needs to confirm someone owns a Nano address, or asks 'is this signature valid?' — even if they just say 'check this proof' or 'did they really sign this?'
development
Validate Nano (XNO) addresses offline (format, checksum) — no network required. Use this skill whenever the user provides a Nano address and wants to verify it's well-formed, before sending XNO to an untrusted address, or asks 'is this address real?' — even if they just paste a nano_ address and ask 'is this right?' Always validate before any XNO send operation.
tools
Sign an off-chain message (plain text) using a Nano (XNO) custodial wallet managed by xno-mcp, following the NOMS / ORIS-001 standard. Use this skill whenever the user wants to prove ownership of a Nano address, authenticate themselves cryptographically, sign a statement with their XNO key, or create an off-chain proof — even if they just say 'prove I own this wallet' or 'sign this for me'.
