Instructions

show (default)

1. Read SOLANA_KEYPAIR_PATH from environment.
2. If set and file exists — show public address (never the private key).
3. If not set — show setup instructions:

   Option 1 (env var): export SOLANA_KEYPAIR_PATH=~/.config/solana/id.json
   Option 2 (command): /solana-keypair set /path/to/keypair.json
   

set

1. Validate the file exists and is readable.
2. If valid — extract public address, confirm success.
3. If invalid — show error with troubleshooting (check path, permissions, format).
4. Always remind: keypair files are sensitive. Never share or commit them.

validate

1. Check file exists, is readable, and is valid Solana keypair format.
2. Show validation result with details (path, public address, permissions).

Security rules

• Never display private keys — only public addresses.
• Warn users to chmod 400 keypair files.
• Remind that keypair controls all funds in the associated wallet.
• Suggest dedicated wallets for testing, hardware wallets for large amounts.

Keypair creation (if user has none)

Point user to:

• solana-keygen new --outfile ~/.config/solana/id.json
• Wallet apps: Solflare, Phantom, Magic Eden (export keypair to JSON)
