• "What's my total asset valuation in USD?"
• "Show my account history / flow records"
• "Transfer 1000 USDT from spot to futures"
• "Check my HTX points balance"

Underlying tool

Configure credentials (one-time)

htx-cli config set-key   <AccessKeyId>
htx-cli config set-secret <SecretKey>

#	Method	Endpoint	CLI invocation	Description

2	GET	/v1/account/accounts/{id}/balance	htx-cli spot account balance <account-id> --json	Balance detail
3	GET	/v2/account/valuation	htx-cli spot account valuation --json	Total valuation of all accounts
4	GET	/v2/account/asset-valuation	htx-cli spot call /v2/account/asset-valuation -p accountType=spot -p valuationCurrency=USD --auth --json	Per-account asset valuation
5	GET	/v1/account/history	htx-cli spot call /v1/account/history -p account-id=<id> --auth --json	Account flow / ledger

Fund transfers — write (5)

#	Method	Endpoint	CLI invocation	Description
1	POST	/v1/account/transfer	htx-cli spot call /v1/account/transfer --method POST --auth --body '{"from-account-id":...,"to-account-id":...,"currency":"usdt","amount":"..."}' --json	Transfer between user's own spot/margin/otc accounts
2	POST	/v1/futures/transfer	htx-cli spot call /v1/futures/transfer --method POST --auth --body '{"currency":"btc","amount":"...","type":"pro-to-futures"}' --json	Spot ↔ COIN-M (币本位交割) futures transfer ONLY. Does NOT work for USDT-M.
3	POST	/v2/account/transfer	htx-cli spot call /v2/account/transfer --method POST --auth --body '{"from":"spot","to":"linear-swap","currency":"usdt","amount":"5","margin-account":"USDT"}' --json	Spot ↔ USDT-M linear swap / cross-margin / super-margin, etc. Use for any USDT-M futures transfer.
4	GET	/v1/point/account	htx-cli spot call /v1/point/account --auth --json	HTX points balance
5	POST	/v1/point/transfer	htx-cli spot call /v1/point/transfer --method POST --auth --body '{"fromUid":"...","toUid":"...","amount":"..."}' --json	Transfer points

Important: For USDT-M perpetual swap (线性永续), you MUST use /v2/account/transfer with from/to = spot ↔ linear-swap and margin-account = USDT (cross) or USDT-<symbol> (isolated, e.g. USDT-BTC). The /v1/futures/transfer endpoint is reserved for COIN-M delivery contracts and will return Transfer service is temporarily suspended for USDT account if misused.

Workflow patterns

Show total balance

htx-cli spot account list --json               # find account id with type=spot
htx-cli spot account balance <id> --json       # detailed per-currency balance
htx-cli spot account valuation --json          # single USD total

Spot → USDT-M futures transfer (most common)

Use /v2/account/transfer:

htx-cli spot call /v2/account/transfer --method POST --auth \
  --body '{"from":"spot","to":"linear-swap","currency":"usdt","amount":"5","margin-account":"USDT"}' --json

• from / to: spot, linear-swap, margin, super-margin, etc. Reverse them to transfer back.
• margin-account: USDT for cross-margin, USDT-BTC (etc.) for isolated margin.

Spot → COIN-M (币本位) futures transfer

Use /v1/futures/transfer with type = pro-to-futures or futures-to-pro (currency is the coin symbol, e.g. btc, eth).

Before calling any transfer endpoint, display to the user source, destination, currency, amount, direction. Only proceed after explicit user confirmation.

Safety

• Read endpoints: safe to call without confirmation.
• Transfer endpoints: must confirm with the user first — show source, destination, currency, amount.
• Never log the secret key. Never pass it as a CLI argument; use htx-cli config set-secret so it's stored once.
