description

Trust Wallet CLI (`twak`) — install, create wallets, check balances, send tokens, swap, view history, set price alerts, DCA automations, limit orders, manage ERC-20 approvals, check token risk, browse trending/DApps, and run x402 micropayments. Use whenever the user wants to use the twak CLI, manage a crypto wallet from the terminal, send or swap tokens via command line, check portfolio, create price alerts, set up DCA, create limit orders, approve ERC-20 spenders, or interact with Trust Wallet from a shell. Also covers MCP server setup for AI agents.

MCP server

twak serve starts an MCP server on stdio exposing wallet actions to AI agents. Flags:

• --rest — start a REST HTTP server instead of the MCP stdio server
• --port <n> — REST server port (default 3000)
• --host <host> — REST bind host (default 127.0.0.1; use 0.0.0.0 to expose externally)
• --password <password> — wallet password (falls back to TWAK_WALLET_PASSWORD env var, then OS keychain)
• --auto-lock <minutes> — auto-lock the wallet after N minutes of inactivity
• --wc-project-id <id> — WalletConnect project ID (or set WALLETCONNECT_PROJECT_ID)
• --watch — background watcher that fires DCA/limit automations; requires the local agent wallet (see references/automations.md)
• --watch-interval <duration> — automation poll interval when --watch is set, e.g. 30s, 5m, 1h (default 60s, min 5s)
