SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill consolidates Base (Ethereum L2) on-chain data with USD pricing to help users quickly understand wallet balances, token metadata, transactions, gas costs, contract health, whale activity, and network status.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Wallet portfolio: ETH and ERC-20 balances with USD values.
  • Transaction details: decode transfers and gas costs by hash.
  • Token info: metadata, price, and market cap for ERC-20 tokens.
  • Gas and network analysis: Base-specific gas, base fee trends, and utilization.
  • Contract inspection: address type, interfaces, and proxy resolution.
  • Whale detection: large transfers in recent blocks.
  • Network health: live stats like block, price, and gas metrics.
  • Price lookup: USD price for known tokens via CoinGecko.

Quick Start

Run the Base blockchain CLI to fetch current network stats and sample wallet data using the base_client.py script.

FAQPage Schema
How do I query Base L2 wallet balances and include USD pricing?

Decode Base L2 transactions by fetching transfer data through the transaction hash, then calculate gas costs and enrich token values using the CoinGecko price API for complete transaction insights.

Can I analyze Base network gas fees and block utilization using an RPC endpoint?

Analyze Base network gas fees and block utilization by connecting to a BASE_RPC_URL endpoint, which returns live base fee trends, block stats, and network health metrics for L2 gas analysis.

Does this Base blockchain data tool require a private RPC endpoint?

A private RPC endpoint is optional for Base blockchain data queries; the tool functions using standard Python libraries and a default public RPC, but supports a BASE_RPC_URL override for private endpoints.

What is the best way to detect whale activity on the Base blockchain?

Detect whale activity on the Base blockchain by scanning recent blocks for large ERC-20 transfers, inspecting transaction values, and optionally applying USD price lookups to quantify the transfer size.

Can I inspect Base contract addresses to resolve proxy implementations?

Inspect Base contract addresses to identify address types, detect exposed interfaces, and resolve proxy contract implementations directly through standard Python RPC calls without external indexing services.
