description	Use LI.FI API for cross-chain and same-chain swaps, bridges, and contract calls. Use when quoting routes, validating chains/tokens, building transaction requests, and tracking status. Use when this capability is needed.

LI.FI Agent Skill

Purpose

Use the LI.FI API to fetch cross-chain and same-chain swap/bridge data, then use transactionRequest returned by the API to build a transaction request that can be submitted by a wallet.

Usage

• NEVER use web_search when searching for quotes or routes. ALWAYS USE LIFI SKILL. Use Endpoint Specifications to build transaction requests.
• NEVER use external price sources (Coinbase, etc.) to estimate quotes.
• ALWAYS use curl to make API calls.
• ALWAYS refer to (## How to use the LIFI API)[#how-to-use-the-lifi-api] to understand what api call to do.
• ALWAYS tell the user that the quote is provided by LI.FI and not by the agent or external web search.
• if not specified, default slippage is 1% and deadline is 10 minutes.

Base URL and Auth

• Base URL: https://li.quest
• Auth: x-lifi-api-key header using LIFI_API_KEY when available; otherwise public access may be rate-limited.

How to use the LIFI API

Get information about all currently supported chains.

Action: GET /chains

Request example:

curl --request GET \
  --url https://li.quest/v1/chains \
  --header 'x-lifi-api-key: LIFI_API_KEY'

Retrieve tokens available on specified chains.

Action: GET /tokens

Description: This endpoint can be used to fetch all tokens known to the LI.FI services..

Request example:

curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://li.quest/v1/tokens?chains=1' \
  --header 'x-lifi-api-key: LIFI_API_KEY'

Get a transfer quote with ready-to-execute transaction data.

Action: GET /quote

Description: This endpoint can be used to request a quote for a transfer of one token to another, cross chain or not. The endpoint returns a Step object which contains information about the estimated result as well as a transactionRequest which can directly be sent to your wallet. The estimated result can be found inside the estimate, containing the estimated toAmount of the requested Token and the toAmountMin, which is the guaranteed minimum value that the transfer will yield including slippage.

Request example:

curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://li.quest/v1/quote?fromChain=1&toChain=42161&fromToken=ETH&toToken=USD&fromAddress=0x123..&toAddress=0x456..&fromAmount=1000000&slippage=0.005' \
  --header 'x-lifi-api-key: LIFI_API_KEY'

Perform multiple contract calls across blockchains (BETA)

Action: POST /quote/contractCalls

Description: This endpoint can be used to bridge tokens, swap them and perform a number or arbitrary contract calls on the destination chain. You can find an example of it here. This functionality is currently in beta. While we've worked hard to ensure its stability and functionality, there might still be some rough edges.

Request example:

curl --request POST \
  --url https://li.quest/v1/quote/contractCalls \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'x-lifi-api-key: LIFI_API_KEY' \
  --data '

Check the status of a cross-chain transfer.

Action: GET /status

Description: Cross chain transfers might take a while to complete. Waiting on the transaction on the sending chain doesn't help here. For this reason we build a simple endpoint that let's you check the status of your transfer. Important: The endpoint returns a 200 successful response even if the transaction can not be found. This behavior accounts for the case that the transaction hash is valid but the transaction has not been mined yet. While non of the parameters fromChain, toChain and bridge are required, passing the fromChain parameter will speed up the request and is therefore encouraged.

Request example:

curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://li.quest/v1/status?txHash=0x123..' \
  --header 'x-lifi-api-key: LIFI_API_KEY'

Get a set of routes for a request that describes a transfer of tokens

Action: POST /advanced/routes

Description: In order to execute any transfer, you must first request possible Routes. From the result set a Route can be selected and executed by retrieving the transaction for every included Step using the /steps/transaction endpoint.

Request example:

curl --request POST \
  --url https://li.quest/v1/advanced/routes \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'x-lifi-api-key: LIFI_API_KEY' \
  --data '
