Request Payment from Operator

When you need XNO (e.g., for testing, for a task that requires funds, or because the operator offered), follow this workflow.

Workflow

Step 1: Check existing wallets

Before creating anything new, check what you already have:

1. Call wallet_list to see existing wallets
2. If wallets exist, call wallet_probe_balances on each to check for existing funds
3. If an existing wallet has sufficient funds, skip to reporting — no request needed

Step 2: Create a payment request

Call payment_request_create:

• amountXno: the amount needed (be specific)
• reason: why you need the funds (be clear — the operator sees this)
• walletName: optional — reuse an existing wallet, or omit to auto-select/create

This returns:

• A nano: URI (shareable/QR-ready)
• The target address
• A request ID for tracking

Step 3: Present to the operator

Tell the operator:

• How much you need and why
• The nano: address to send to
• Offer to generate a QR code (use generate-qr skill or the generate_qr MCP tool if available)

Example message:

I need 0.1 XNO for [reason]. Please send to: nano_1abc... Or scan this QR: [generate QR]

Step 4: Wait and check for funds

After the operator says they've sent funds (or after a reasonable wait):

1. Call payment_request_receive with the request ID
2. This checks for pending blocks and receives them
3. Returns updated status: pending, partial, funded, or received

If status is partial, tell the operator how much more is needed.

Step 5: Report back

Once funds are received, confirm to the operator:

• Amount received
• Updated balance
• That the funds are ready to use

Important Rules

• Always check existing wallets first — don't create unnecessary wallets
• Be specific about amounts and reasons — vague requests erode trust
• Never claim funds were received without calling payment_request_receive — pending is not received in Nano
• If the operator asks "did you get it?", always re-check — call payment_request_status or payment_request_receive
