What problem does it solve?

This Skill simplifies the operation of Celestia data availability nodes and provides a programmatic interface to interact with the Celestia network for tasks like submitting transactions and querying data.

Core Features & Use Cases

Node Operation: Manage and interact with Celestia bridge, full, and light nodes.
Data Availability: Submit data blobs using PayForBlob and retrieve data by namespace.
State Queries: Check account balances and verify state against the chain's AppHash.
Use Case: Automatically post transaction data to the Celestia network for decentralized storage and retrieve it later using its namespace identifier.

Quick Start

Use the celestia skill to submit a PayForBlob transaction for the given namespace and data.

FAQPage Schema

How do I submit data to the Celestia data availability network?▼

You can operate Celestia bridge, full, and light nodes to interact with the data availability network. Bridge nodes connect to the consensus layer, while full and light nodes sample data for decentralized storage verification.

How do I check my Celestia account balance and verify chain state?▼

You can check account balances and verify state against the chain's AppHash by querying the network. This leverages the celestia-node RPC API to securely retrieve current state data.

What is the difference between Celestia bridge, full, and light nodes?▼

Celestia supports bridge, full, and light node operations for different levels of network participation. Bridge nodes connect the consensus chain to the data availability layer, while full and light nodes sample and verify data without requiring full chain history.

Can I retrieve data from Celestia using a namespace identifier?▼

Yes, you can retrieve data from the Celestia network by querying its specific namespace identifier. This allows you to fetch data blobs that were previously submitted using PayForBlob transactions for decentralized storage.

Do I need to run a full node to submit PayForBlob transactions?▼

You can manage bridge, full, and light node operations to interact with the Celestia network. The Skill leverages the celestia-node RPC API to submit PayForBlob transactions and query chain state across all supported node types.
