eips by hairyf/blockchain-master

The skill is based on the Ethereum EIPs repository (ethereum/EIPs), generated at 2026-02-25.

EIPs are design documents that specify features or conventions for Ethereum. This skill covers the EIP process (lifecycle, status, editors), document format (preamble, sections), categories, validation tooling, and best practices for writing and referencing EIPs. For the content of specific EIPs (e.g. EIP-155, EIP-712), read the source files in sources/eips/EIPS/eip-N.md or eips.ethereum.org.
