Arcadia Finance — clAMM Agent Guide
Arcadia is a platform for managing concentrated liquidity positions with automated rebalancing, compounding, yield optimization, and leverage. Positions live in Arcadia accounts, which can also borrow against their collateral. This skill covers everything needed to manage clAMM positions as an agent.
Key Constraints
- All
write.* tools return unsigned transactions ({ to, data, value, chainId }) — you must sign and broadcast them. See "Transaction Signing" below.
- Automation strategy config (tick range, rebalance thresholds) is not currently settable via MCP — this requires Arcadia platform access.
- Health factor =
1 - (used_margin / liquidation_value). Higher is safer. 1 = no debt, >0 = healthy, 0 = liquidation threshold, <0 = past liquidation. Keep above 0.5 for leveraged positions; act immediately below 0.2.
- Minimum margin — each lending pool enforces a fixed minimum margin denominated in the pool's numeraire (e.g. WETH for the WETH pool, USDC for the USDC pool), typically a few dollars in value. This gets added to the debt when computing
used_margin (i.e. used_margin = open_debt + minimum_margin). It ensures liquidations remain profitable (covering gas costs) and prevents dust attacks. For small positions the fixed minimum margin dominates the used margin, pushing health factor lower than the leverage ratio alone would suggest (e.g. HF ~0.3 at 2× leverage). Increase position size for a healthier starting HF. write.account.add_liquidity also validates deposits against per-asset minimum amounts from strategy risk factors.
asset_id is always an integer (NFT token ID for LP positions, 0 for ERC20 tokens).- Wrapping ETH — ETH must be wrapped to WETH before depositing. Call WETH's
deposit() function (payable) with the ETH amount. No MCP tool for this, use your wallet.
Transaction Signing
Write tools (write.*) return unsigned transaction calldata. This server does NOT sign or broadcast. After receiving a transaction object, you must:
- Sign the transaction with the account owner's private key or wallet
- Broadcast it to the appropriate chain (Base 8453, Unichain 130, or Optimism 10)
- Wait for the transaction receipt to confirm success
How you sign depends on your setup:
- MPC wallet (Fireblocks, Dfns, Turnkey) — pass the unsigned tx to your provider's signing API
- Smart account (Safe, Biconomy) — wrap the tx as a UserOperation or Safe transaction
- Embedded wallet (Privy, Dynamic) — use the provider's
sendTransaction method
- Direct private key (development only) — use the built-in
dev.send tool (set PK in a .env file or MCP client config), or viem/ethers sendTransaction with a local signer
Example with viem:
const hash = await walletClient.sendTransaction(tx);
const receipt = await publicClient.waitForTransactionReceipt({ hash });
Batching Philosophy
Arcadia's flash-action tools can batch multiple DeFi operations into a single atomic transaction. Always prefer batched tools — they reduce transaction count, gas cost, and exposure to price movement between steps.
When to split: In high-volatility markets or for low-liquidity pools, batched transactions may revert because on-chain state changes between when the backend computes calldata and when the transaction executes. If a batched tool fails, fall back to individual tools with tighter slippage. Always try batched first, split only on failure.
Batched write tools (write.account.add_liquidity, write.account.close, write.account.deleverage, write.account.swap, write.account.remove_liquidity, write.account.stake) return time-sensitive calldata — sign and broadcast promptly; calldata may expire after 30–60 seconds depending on market conditions. If a transaction reverts due to price movement, rebuild and retry at least once before falling back to individual tools.
MCP Tools (39 + 1 dev)
Read Tools
| Tool | When to use |
|---|
read.account.info | Account overview + liquidation price. Pass account_address for detail (returns positions with asset_address/asset_id/dex_protocol, collateral, debt). |
read.account.history | Historical account value over time. Optional days param (default 14). |
read.account.pnl | PnL and yield earned — use to check if a strategy is still profitable. |
read.asset.list | List supported collateral assets (symbol, address, decimals). Use search to filter by symbol substring. |
read.asset.prices | USD prices for one or more assets by address. Pass asset_addresses (single or comma-separated). |
read.wallet.balances | On-chain ERC20 balances and native ETH for a wallet. Use to pre-check if the wallet has enough tokens before depositing or adding liquidity. |
read.wallet.allowances | Check ERC20 token allowances for a spender. Use before write.wallet.approve to avoid redundant approvals — skip if the current allowance is already sufficient. |
read.wallet.accounts | List all Arcadia accounts owned by a wallet address. |
read.wallet.points | Points earned by a wallet address. |
read.pool.list | Lending pool TVL, APY, utilization, liquidity. Pass pool_address for detail + APY history (optional days, default 14). |
read.pool.info | Detail + APY history for a specific lending pool. Pass pool_address. |
read.strategy.list | LP strategies with fee APY, underlyings, pool protocol. List view shows 7d avg APY for the strategy's default range (e.g. ±7.5% for volatile pairs). Pass strategy_id to see APY per range width (very_narrow → full_range) — narrower range = higher APY but more rebalancing cost/risk. Use featured_only: true for curated top strategies. |
read.strategy.info | Detail for a specific strategy by strategy_id, including range-width APY breakdown. |
read.point_leaderboard | Points leaderboard. No chain_id needed — points are cross-chain. |
read.strategy.recommendation | Rebalancing recommendation for an account. Uses 1d APY (not 7d like read.strategy.list), so numbers may differ. |
read.asset_manager.intents | List available automations with tool names, required params, and supported chains. Use to discover what automations can be configured. Filter by chain_id to exclude chain-unsupported intents. |
read.guides | Reference guides: automation (AM setup), selection (pool evaluation), strategies (step-by-step templates). |
Preferred Write Tools (atomic/multi-step — use these first)
These tools batch multiple operations into ONE atomic transaction. Always prefer these over individual tools.
| Tool | Batches | When to use |
|---|
write.account.add_liquidity | deposit + swap + mint LP + optional borrow | Open LP position. Do NOT call write.account.deposit separately — this handles wallet transfer atomically. |
write.account.close | burn LP + swap + repay debt (up to 3 steps) | Close/exit a position. ALWAYS try this first. Tokens stay in account — follow up with write.account.withdraw. |
write.account.deleverage | swap collateral + repay debt | Repay debt using account collateral (no wallet tokens needed). Preferred for health factor fixes. |
write.account.set_asset_managers | build setAssetManagers tx from encoded intent args | Combine multiple automations by merging arrays from write.asset_manager.* intent tools. |
Individual Write Tools (use when batched tools fail or for standalone operations)
| Tool | When to use |
|---|
write.wallet.approve | Approve a token for spending. Required before write.account.deposit and before write.account.add_liquidity (when depositing from wallet). Call read.wallet.allowances first to check if already approved. |
write.account.create | Create a new Arcadia account (one-time setup). Use account_version: 0 for the latest version (recommended). |
write.account.deposit | Deposit ERC20 tokens as collateral. NOT needed before write.account.add_liquidity — that tool handles deposits atomically. |
write.account.withdraw | Withdraw assets to account owner. Account version auto-detected on-chain. Params: asset_addresses[], asset_amounts[] (exact amounts, no max_uint256), optional asset_ids[] (0 for ERC20). |
write.account.borrow | Borrow from a lending pool. NOT needed for leveraged LP — write.account.add_liquidity handles borrowing internally. |
write.account.repay | Repay debt from wallet (approve pool first). Use amount: "max_uint256" to repay in full. For repaying with account collateral, prefer write.account.deleverage. |
write.account.swap | Swap assets within account (backend handles routing). For closing positions, prefer write.account.close. |
write.account.remove_liquidity | PARTIAL liquidity decrease only (position stays open). For full LP removal/exit, use write.account.close. |
write.account.stake | Stake, unstake, or claim rewards for an LP position. Direction auto-detected from asset_address. |
write.pool.deposit | Lend to earn yield. Deposit the pool's underlying asset (USDC / WETH / cbBTC) into the ERC-4626 tranche, receive tranche shares that accrue interest from borrowers. Requires prior write.wallet.approve to the tranche. Different from write.account.deposit: that deposits collateral into your Arcadia account; this deposits as a lender. |
write.pool.redeem | Lender exit. Burn tranche shares and redeem the underlying asset, including accrued interest. Pass the owner's share balance (or a partial amount) in shares. |
write.asset_manager.* | Encode automation intents (rebalancer, compounder, compounder_staked, yield_claimer, yield_claimer_cowswap, cow_swapper, merkl_operator). Each returns { asset_managers, statuses, datas } — merge arrays, pass to write.account.set_asset_managers. See automation.md and read.asset_manager.intents for full details. |
Dev Tools (only available when PK env var is set)
| Tool | When to use |
|---|
dev.send | Sign and broadcast an unsigned transaction using a local private key. Pass the { to, data, value, chainId } from any write.* tool. Not for production — use a dedicated wallet MCP server (Fireblocks, Safe, Turnkey, etc.) instead. |

Lending Pools
Use as pool_address in write.account.borrow / write.account.repay, as creditor in write.account.create / write.account.deleverage. Same CREATE2 addresses on Base and Optimism. Unichain has no lending pools.
| Asset | Pool Address | Chains |

Asset Manager Addresses
Addresses are auto-resolved by write.asset_manager.* intent tools based on dex_protocol, targeting the latest deployed version on the selected chain. Listed here for reference. All require V3/V4 accounts. Older asset-manager versions remain on-chain for users who registered before the latest version shipped; read.account.info detects active registrations across every deployed version and reports the dex_protocol with no version suffix.
Standalone AMs (not tied to a DEX protocol, same address on all supported chains):
| Type | Address | Chains |

Slipstream V3 on Optimism uses different addresses (exception to the deterministic deployment pattern):
| Type | Address (Optimism) |
|---|
| Rebalancer | 0x33442fC10a20Aad0ddD73F6ae24500F5B370DC51 |
| Compounder | 0x3e7b6997399eC402491c4A049e4CD727d3aA1738 |
| Yield Claimer | 0x3630bDb1Ac7cF8A435411391db75450350814F42 |
Slipstream V1 vs V2 vs V3: The pool determines the version, each pool is bound to a specific Slipstream version. read.account.info returns a dex_protocol field on LP positions (derived from the position manager address), so you can read the protocol directly from the account overview. Pass this value (slipstream, slipstream_v2, slipstream_v3, or their staked_* variants) as dex_protocol to write.asset_manager.* intent tools to auto-resolve the correct AM address.
Account Versions
Spot vs margin is determined by whether a creditor (lending pool) is set at account creation, not by version number.
account_version: 3 — margin account (created with a creditor). Can borrow, leverage, and mint LP. Uses an onchain whitelist of allowed collateral tokens.account_version: 4 or 0 (latest) — spot account (no creditor, no borrowing). Can hold assets and mint LP with leverage: 0. Accepts any ERC20 (no onchain whitelist).account_version: 1 or 2 — legacy. Not supported by current MCP tools (write.asset_manager.* and write.account.set_asset_managers require V3/V4).- For leveraged LP strategies, use
account_version: 3 with a creditor.
- To check an existing account's version: call
read.account.info — the response includes the account version.
