Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use the full local wallet when a supported agent host needs wallet operations across the listed chains; use the separate remote MCP when the requirement is limited to its documented x402 and USDC payment functions.

Who it is for

  • People connecting Codex, Claude Code, OpenClaw or Hermes to wallet tools.
  • Developers using a local MCP client with standard stdio transport.
  • MCP-host users seeking the separate, narrower x402 payment connector.

Documented uses

  • View wallet balances and portfolio positions through an agent host.
  • Send or receive supported assets and swap tokens.
  • Access supported DeFi services and paid APIs through x402.
  • Connect a local MCP client to the wallet runtime.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

  • The full wallet runtime is local and uses Node.js 24, npm and Python 3 for installation.
  • The README lists Ethereum, Solana and Base for the wallet; its remote x402-only connector documents USDC payments on Base and basic USDC send/receive on Arc.
  • The remote connector is distinct from the full wallet and lacks its Solana support, swaps and DeFi.
  • Read operations and fund-moving operations have different handling: the latter remain subject to wallet policy and approval checks.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

  • npm
  • Python 3
  • A supported host: Codex, Claude Code, OpenClaw or Hermes

Steps

  1. Run the command below.

    Documented command
    npx --yes @agentlayer.tech/wallet@latest install

  2. Choose the detected agent framework where the installer prompts you.

  3. Restart the selected application.
