What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps developers, researchers, and product teams avoid stale or incorrect assumptions about Ethereum protocol features by providing a reliable checklist and source chain to verify whether an EIP or feature is proposed, scheduled, or actually implemented on-chain.
Core Features & Use Cases
- EIP lifecycle explanation: Walks through Draft → Review → Last Call → Final and the CFI/SFI/DFI statuses used to track fork inclusion.
- Fork tracking workflow: Shows how to use authoritative sources (forkcast, EIPs repo, execution-specs, consensus-specs, eth-rnd-archive) to determine whether a feature is planned, scheduled, or tested on devnets and which clients support it.
- Practical scenarios: Use this Skill when deciding whether to build against an unshipped feature, when preparing release timelines that depend on a fork, or when drafting and promoting a new protocol proposal.
Quick Start
Check whether a given EIP (for example EIP-4844) is SFI/CFI/DFI for the next fork and which clients have devnet support by consulting forkcast, the EIPs repo, and the execution-specs.
