| description | Use eth2-quickstart to autonomously deploy a hardened Ethereum node, install execution and consensus clients, configure validator metadata, expose RPC safely, and inspect node health with structured JSON output. |
cli-anything-eth2-quickstart
Agent-native harness for the chimera-defi/eth2-quickstart automation repo.
This CLI wraps the repo's canonical shell scripts instead of replacing them.
When To Use
Use this skill when the task involves:
- bootstrapping a fresh Ethereum node host
- installing execution and consensus clients with explicit client diversity
- enabling MEV-Boost or Commit-Boost workflows
- exposing RPC through Nginx or Caddy
- updating validator fee recipient or graffiti settings without handling secrets
- checking machine-readable health with
--json

Safety Rules
- Always use
--json for agent parsing.
- Require human confirmation before
setup-node, install-clients, or start-rpc.
- Do not generate validator keys.
- Do not remove secrets or wallet material.
- Treat
configure-validator as metadata and operator-guidance only.
- Respect the reboot boundary between Phase 1 and Phase 2.
Runtime Expectations
- Operates on a local
eth2-quickstart checkout.
- Discovers repo root from
--repo-root, ETH2QS_REPO_ROOT, or current working directory.
- Writes compatible overrides into
config/user_config.env when flags map directly to repo settings.
