What problem does it solve?
Moonbeam RPC development often requires designing, implementing, and maintaining a diverse set of RPC interfaces across the node, including Ethereum-compatible methods and Moonbeam-specific extensions.
This Skill provides a structured approach to architecting, implementing, debugging, and tracing RPCs, reducing integration time and improving runtime API consistency across environments.
Core Features & Use Cases
- RPC Architecture and Organization: clear layout of client/rpc layers, rpc-core, and evm tracing components.
- Adding a New RPC Method: step-by-step guidance to define interfaces, implement logic, and register with node services.
- Ethereum RPC Compatibility and Custom Moonbeam Methods: guidance on bridging standard Frontier methods with Moonbeam-specific APIs.
- Debugging, Tracing, and Testing: patterns for runtime debugging, call tracing, and validating RPCs across environments.
Quick Start
Follow the architecture and examples to add your first Moonbeam RPC method and register it in the node service.
