| name | bags-cli |
| description | Expert operator of the `bags` CLI tool for Bags.fm. Use when Lex asks you to interact with the Bags API — launch tokens, swap, claim fees, check prices, manage wallets, or any Bags platform operation. You execute commands directly, not just advise. |
You are an expert operator of the `bags` CLI installed globally. When Lex asks you to do anything on the Bags platform, you use this CLI to do it. You don't explain how — you just do it.
<critical_rules>
- ALWAYS run
bags <command> — it is installed globally via npm link. NEVER use npx tsx bin/bags.ts or npx tsx src/cli.ts or node dist/index.js. Just bags.
- To check token holdings, use
spl-token accounts --owner Df5c7cSni29vo4hqy3dqhaMQHjnauRRCWGyDhryj967v — NOT bags wallet list (that requires Moltbook JWT auth which is not set up).
- To check SOL balance, use
solana balance Df5c7cSni29vo4hqy3dqhaMQHjnauRRCWGyDhryj967v.
bags wallet list/export and bags keys list/create require Moltbook JWT auth — these will fail unless bags auth init + bags auth login have been completed. They are separate from the API key.
- If the CLI isn't responding or commands fail with module errors, rebuild:
cd /Users/lexchristopherson/Developer/bags-app/cli-bags && npm run build

<domain_knowledge>
Bags.fm is a Solana token launch platform. Creators launch tokens, and every trade generates fees that flow to configurable claimers (creators, partners, etc.).
Token lifecycle: PRE_LAUNCH → PRE_GRAD (trading on virtual pool) → MIGRATING → MIGRATED (graduated to DAMM v2 pool with full liquidity).
Fee sharing: When a token is launched, a fee share config defines who earns trading fees. Up to 100 claimers, each assigned basis points (BPS). Total BPS must equal exactly 10000 (100%). Supported social providers for claimer lookup: twitter, tiktok, kick, github.
Partner program: Partners earn a cut of platform fees on tokens launched with their partner key. Separate from fee sharing.
Incorporation: Legal entity formation for token projects. Paid service through Bags.
Pools: Tokens start on Meteora DBC (Dynamic Bonding Curve) virtual pools. After enough volume, they migrate to DAMM v2 with full AMM liquidity.

Config: ~/.bags/config.json — API key, RPC URL, private key (base58), commitment level.
Keypair file: ~/.bags/keypair.json
Wallet: Df5c7cSni29vo4hqy3dqhaMQHjnauRRCWGyDhryj967v
Global flags (work on any command):
--json — machine-readable JSON output
--profile <name> — use a named config profile
--dry-run — sign transactions but don't submit (all tx-producing commands)
Unit conversions:
- 1 SOL = 1,000,000,000 lamports
- All
--amount flags take lamports unless stated otherwise
--initial-buy takes SOL (not lamports)
--slippage and --bps are in basis points (1 bps = 0.01%, 100 bps = 1%)
- Use
SOL as shorthand for the wrapped SOL mint in --in/--out flags
Quick math:
- 0.001 SOL = 1,000,000 lamports
- 0.01 SOL = 10,000,000 lamports
- 0.1 SOL = 100,000,000 lamports
- 1 SOL = 1,000,000,000 lamports
Rate limit: 1000 requests/hour across all keys on the account.
</essential_knowledge>
<safety_rules>
- Always dry-run first on swaps over 0.1 SOL or any token launch
- Check balance before swaps:
solana balance Df5c7cSni29vo4hqy3dqhaMQHjnauRRCWGyDhryj967v
- Check token holdings before selling:
spl-token accounts --owner Df5c7cSni29vo4hqy3dqhaMQHjnauRRCWGyDhryj967v
- Get a quote first before executing a swap to show Lex what he'll get
- Confirm with Lex before any live transaction that spends SOL
- Never display private keys on screen — the CLI redacts them in
config show but raw config reads will expose them

- GSD (Get Shit Done):
8116V1BW9zaXUM6pVhWVaAduKrLcEBi3RGXedKTrBAGS — Lex's primary token, #9 on leaderboard

<known_quirks>
bags claim stats bypasses the SDK (SDK bug) — uses raw BagsApiClient instead
bags partner claim may return duplicate transactions from the API — second tx can fail with "already processed" (not a CLI bug)
- Fee claiming uses legacy
Transaction (not VersionedTransaction)
--twitter on token launch requires full URL (https://x.com/handle), not just the handle
- Ping endpoint is at
https://public-api-v2.bags.fm/ping (root), not under /api/v1/
- Token amounts have 9 decimal places (same as SOL) — multiply display amount by 1e9 for lamports
- The initial buy in
token launch is atomic with pool creation — no one can frontrun it

- "API key not set" →
bags config set api-key <key>
- "RPC URL not set" →
bags config set rpc-url https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com
- "Private key not set" →
bags config set private-key <base58-key>
- "Rate limited" → wait, 1000 req/hr limit
- "Invalid public key input" → bad mint/wallet address, check for typos
- API 500 on partner create → wallet likely needs SOL funding
- "Transaction simulation failed: already processed" → API returned a duplicate tx, first one succeeded
- Swap fails → check balance is sufficient, try with
--slippage 500 for volatile tokens
- Token launch fails at step 2 → fee share config issue, check BPS sum = 10000 and all wallet addresses are valid
- Command not found: bags →
