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).

Gate Exchange Simple Earn Skill

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 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.

gate-cli commands used

Query Operations (Read-only)

• gate-cli cex earn uni change
• gate-cli cex earn uni currency
• gate-cli cex earn uni interest
• gate-cli cex earn fixed history
• gate-cli cex earn fixed lends
• gate-cli cex earn fixed products
• gate-cli cex earn fixed products-asset
• gate-cli cex earn uni rate
• gate-cli cex earn uni lends

Execution Operations (Write)

• gate-cli cex earn fixed create
• gate-cli cex earn fixed pre-redeem
• gate-cli cex earn uni lend

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.
• Permissions: Earn:Write
• 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 Simple Earn workflow.

• SKILL.md keeps routing and business constraints.
• references/gate-cli.md is the authoritative gate-cli execution contract for query/action separation, confirmation gates, and post-action verification.

Trigger Conditions

Activate this skill when the user expresses any of the following intents:

• Simple Earn, Uni, flexible earn, fixed earn, fixed-term, subscribe, redeem, positions, interest, top APY
• Any request involving Simple Earn subscribe, redeem, position query, interest query, fixed-term product list, or fixed-term history query

Prerequisites

• MCP Dependency: Requires gate-mcp to be installed.
• Authentication: Position and write operations require API key authentication; rate and currency queries are public.
• Disclaimer: Always append when showing APY or rates: "This information is for reference only and does not constitute investment advice. APY may change. Please understand the product terms before subscribing."

Supported Workflows

Flexible (Uni)

• Single-currency or all positions query
• Single-currency interest query
• Estimated APY query
• Subscribe (lend), redeem, and change min rate operations with user confirmation

Fixed-term

• Product list and product list by currency
• Subscribe and early redeem with user confirmation
• Current total positions and single-order detail queries
• History queries for subscribe, redeem, interest, and extra bonus

Routing Rules

2	Redeem	"redeem", "redeem from Simple Earn"	Collect currency/amount and confirm, then call gate-cli cex earn uni lend with type: redeem.
3	Single-currency position	"my USDT Simple Earn", "position for one currency"	See references/scenarios.md flexible scenario section

Execution

1. Identify user intent from the routing rules above.
2. For flexible subscribe/redeem/top APY and fixed-term subscribe/early redeem: collect required params, confirm with the user, then call the corresponding MCP tool.
3. For flexible or fixed-term read-only queries: read the matching scenario section in references/scenarios.md and follow the workflow there.
4. For auth failures: do not expose API keys or raw errors; prompt the user to configure API key / log in again.
5. If the intent is ambiguous, ask a clarifying question before routing.

Domain Knowledge

Flexible (Uni)

• Subscribe (lend) means the user lends a specified amount of a currency to the Simple Earn pool.
• Redeem means the user redeems a specified amount from the pool.
• min_rate is the minimum acceptable hourly rate for the currency; required for lend.
• Settlement windows: lend and redeem are not allowed in the two minutes before and after each whole hour (use for errors/logic only; do not surface specific clock times or timestamps to the user unless the user explicitly asks when settlement applies).
• User-facing display (flexible only): In any reply based on flexible Uni MCP data, do not show time-related fields—omit timestamps, dates, time-of-day, countdowns, chart time axes, history operation times, and any API field whose purpose is when something occurred. Show only non-time facts (currency, amounts, balances, rates/APY, interest_status, success/failure). If a tool returns only time-series data (e.g. APY chart), summarize without timestamps (e.g. latest estimated APY only) or skip the series.

Fixed-term

• Subscribe uses only products with status=2 (subscribing) and show_status=2 (visible).
• Product list queries can be filtered by currency and product type.
• Fixed-term positions and history should be presented using the table formats defined in references/scenarios.md and references/fixed-earn-mcp-tools.md.
• Early redeem uses the fixed-term order ID and returns the redeemed principal.

Safety Rules

• Always confirm currency, amount, and min_rate (for flexible lend) or currency/amount/term (for fixed-term subscribe) before calling write MCPs.
• Always confirm order_id before calling fixed-term early redeem.
• Do not recommend specific currencies or predict rates.
• Never expose API keys, internal endpoint URLs, or raw error traces to the user.
• Reject negative or zero amounts; validate that the currency is supported.

Error Handling
