Resolving gate-cli (binary path)

Resolve gate-cli in order: (1) command -v gate-cli and gate-cli --version succeeds; (2) ${HOME}/.local/bin/gate-cli if executable; (3) ${HOME}/.openclaw/skills/bin/gate-cli if executable. Canonical rules: exchange-runtime-rules.md §4 (or gate-runtime-rules.md §4).

General Rules

⚠️ STOP — You MUST read and strictly follow the shared runtime rules before proceeding. Do NOT select or call any tool until all rules are read. These rules have the highest priority. → Read ./references/gate-runtime-rules.md

• Only use the gate-cli commands explicitly listed in this skill. Commands not documented here must NOT be run for these workflows, even if other interfaces expose them.

Query Operations (Read-only)

• gate-cli cex delivery account get
• gate-cli cex earn dual balance
• gate-cli cex earn dual orders
• cex_earn_list_structured_orders
• gate-cli cex futures account get
• gate-cli cex margin account list

• gate-cli cex spot account get
• gate-cli cex spot account book
• gate-cli cex tradfi account assets
• gate-cli cex unified account get
• gate-cli cex wallet balance total

Authentication

• Interactive file setup: when GATE_API_KEY and GATE_API_SECRET are not both set on the host, run gate-cli config init to complete the wizard for API key, secret, profiles, and defaults (see gate-cli).
• Env / flags: gate-cli config init is not required when credentials are already supplied — e.g. both GATE_API_KEY and GATE_API_SECRET set on the host, or --api-key / --api-secret where supported — never ask the user to paste secrets into chat.
• API Key Required: Yes
• Permissions: Delivery:Read, Earn:Read, Fx:Read, Margin:Read, Options:Read, Spot:Read, Tradfi:Read, Unified:Read, Wallet:Read
• Portal: create or rotate keys outside the chat: https://www.gate.com/myaccount/profile/api-key/manage

Installation Check

• Required: gate-cli (run sh ./setup.sh from this skill directory if missing; optional GATE_CLI_SETUP_MODE=release).
• Add $HOME/.openclaw/skills/bin to PATH if you invoke gate-cli by name (or the directory where setup.sh installs it).
• Credentials: When GATE_API_KEY and GATE_API_SECRET are both set (non-empty) for the host, do not require gate-cli config init — that is equivalent valid config for gate-cli. When both are unset or empty, remind the operator to run gate-cli config init or to configure GATE_API_KEY / GATE_API_SECRET in the matching skill from the skill library (never ask the user to paste secrets into chat).
• Sanity check: Do not proceed with authenticated calls until the CLI behaves as expected (e.g. gate-cli --version or a read-only gate-cli cex ... command from this skill); confirm credentials resolve before mutating operations.

Execution mode

Read and strictly follow references/gate-cli.md, then execute this skill's assets-query workflow.

• SKILL.md keeps intent routing and rendering rules.
• references/gate-cli.md is the authoritative gate-cli execution contract for multi-account data collection, normalization, and degraded output handling.

Cross-Skill Workflows

• Before trading: User asks "Can I buy 100U BTC?" → This skill: gate-cli cex spot account get currency=USDT → Route to gate-exchange-spot if sufficient.
• After transfer: Route to this skill for updated balance when user asks.
• Transfer card: When futures/options = 0, recommend [Transfer] and trigger transfer skill.

Safety Rules

• Read-only only. Never call create_order, cancel_order, create_transfer, or any write operation.
• If user intent includes trading, transfer, or order placement → route to appropriate skill.
• Always clarify currency and scope (spot vs all wallets) when ambiguous.
