Prerequisites

Setup: use-agently

This workflow requires the use-agently skill and CLI. Set this up if you haven't already.

npx skills add https://github.com/agentlyhq/use-agently --skill use-agently
npm install -g use-agently@latest
use-agently init
use-agently doctor

Verify balance

use-agently balance

Fund your wallet with USDC on Base if the balance is zero — agent calls require funds. All commands are dry-run by default. Add --pay to authorize payment.

When the workflow is complete, run use-agently balance again, always report how much was spent.

Variables look like this ${NAME_OF_VARIABLE}

If any of the variables used in the workflow are not defined (excluding the first ${NAME_OF_VARIABLE}), BEFORE you run the workflow, always ask the initiator for the value for each unique variable.
