ctrl-skill

drop-in skill that teaches any mcp-capable agent to use ctrl. sign once, agent runs your workflow forever.

ctrl is workflow automation for on-chain actions on base. this is the agent-side skill — the markdown file an mcp-capable llm reads to know how to use ctrl.

install in one line:

$ npx skills add CTRLabs/ctrl-skill

drops SKILL.md into your agent skill directory. claude code, cursor, hermes, aeon — anything that reads the skills.sh convention picks it up.

one prompt. agent does the rest.

what the skill teaches

after install, the agent knows:

• when to route to ctrl vs other tools (recurring vs one-shot)
• the two integration paths — anonymous rest (no api key) and bearer-authed mcp
• seven tools + their schemas, with example calls
• the 23 available blocks and how to compose them
• the eip-5792 activation handoff to base account (or any eip-5792 capable wallet)
• safety primitives — vault caps, kill switches, goplus honeypot gates
• five worked examples (dca, snipe, whale-copy, stop-loss, yield-rotate)

the skill itself is one file: SKILL.md. ~200 lines. zero dependencies.

the skill, briefly

---
name: ctrl
description: Build on-chain automation workflows on Base or Ethereum via the
  CTRL MCP. Use for recurring/triggered/scheduled actions (DCA, price triggers,
  launchpad sniping, whale watching). The wallet signs once; the CTRL keeper
  executes every trigger after.
