# Alchemy Agent โ On-Chain Intelligence
An OpenClaw agent template powered by Alchemy, built for deployment on [Pinata](https://agents.pinata.cloud).
Alchemy Agent turns Alchemy's blockchain APIs into a conversational intelligence layer. Ask questions about any wallet, track whale movements, and monitor token prices โ all from chat.
## What It Does
### 1. Wallet Intelligence
Ask about any wallet and get a full multi-chain profile.
> "Show me vitalik.eth's portfolio"
Returns: token balances, NFT holdings, recent transfers, and total portfolio value across all Alchemy-supported chains.
### 2. Smart Money Tracking
Watch wallets for significant activity. Runs automatically every 15 minutes.
> "Watch this VC wallet for moves: 0xABC..."
Monitors: large token transfers, NFT acquisitions, new positions, and notable outflows. Alerts you when something happens.
### 3. Token & NFT Price Monitoring
Track prices and get alerts on big moves. Runs automatically every 15 minutes.
> "Track ETH and BAYC prices, alert me on 5% swings"
Monitors: token spot prices and NFT collection floor prices. Alerts when changes exceed your threshold.
## Quick Start
### Deploy on Pinata
1. Go to [agents.pinata.cloud](https://agents.pinata.cloud) and deploy this template
2. Set your `ALCHEMY_API_KEY` โ get one free at [dashboard.alchemy.com](https://dashboard.alchemy.com)
3. Set an LLM provider key: `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` or `OPENAI_API_KEY`
4. Start chatting
### Run Locally with OpenClaw
```bash
git clone <this-repo>
cd pinata-agents
./setup.sh
```
The setup script will:
- Prompt for your Alchemy API key and LLM provider key (Anthropic or OpenAI)
- Test the Alchemy API connection
- Register the agent workspace with OpenClaw
- Start the gateway
Or do it manually:
```bash
cp .env.example .env
# Fill in your API keys in .env
openclaw agents add alchemy-agent --workspace ./workspace
openclaw gateway
```
## Alchemy APIs Used
| API | What It Does |

## Customization
Edit `workspace/USER.md` to configure:
- Wallets to track
- Tokens and NFT collections to monitor
- Alert thresholds
- Preferred chains
## Scheduled Tasks
Two pre-configured tasks run every 15 minutes (defined in `manifest.json`):
| Task | What It Does |
| --- | --- |
| `whale-tracker` | Checks watchlist wallets for new transfer activity |
| `price-monitor` | Checks tracked token/NFT prices for significant moves |
Edit the `tasks` array in `manifest.json` to adjust schedules or add new tasks.
