okx-cex-portfolio
OKX CEX Portfolio & Account CLI
Account balance, positions, P&L, bills, fees, and fund transfers on OKX exchange. Requires API credentials.
Preflight
Before running any command, follow ../_shared/preflight.md.
Use metadata.version from this file's frontmatter as the reference for Step 2.
Prerequisites
- Install
okxCLI:npm install -g @okx_ai/okx-trade-cli - Configure credentials:
okx config init # select site -> follow browser OAuth flow - Test with demo mode (simulated trading, no real funds):
okx --demo account balance
Security: NEVER accept credentials in chat. Guide users to
okx config initfor setup.
Credential & Profile Check
Run this check before any authenticated command. The auth method is detected during preflight Step 2 and remembered for the session.
Step A — Verify credentials
Check both sources (see preflight Step 2 for the decision table). okx auth status --json alone is insufficient — its apiKey field is always false and does NOT reflect the TOML config.
okx config show --json # authoritative for API-key presence
okx auth status --json # authoritative for OAuth session state
Branch in this order — first match wins:
config showhas any profile with a non-emptyapi_key— API Key mode. Proceed to Step B.- No API-key profile AND
auth statusreturns"status": "logged_in"— OAuth mode. Proceed to Step B. - No API-key profile AND
auth statusreturns"status": "pending"— login in progress, wait. - No API-key profile AND
auth statusreturns"status": "not_logged_in"— stop all operations, loadokx-cex-authskill and follow login steps, wait for completion.
Step B — Confirm trading mode
Resolution rules:
- Current message intent is clear (e.g. "real" / "实盘" / "live" → live; "test" / "模拟" / "demo" → demo) → use it and inform the user
- Current message has no explicit declaration → check conversation context for a previous choice:
- Found → reuse it, inform user
- Not found → ask:
"Live (实盘) or Demo (模拟盘)?"— wait for answer before proceeding
How to apply the mode depends on auth method (detected in Step A):
| Auth method | Live (实盘) | Demo (模拟盘) |
|---|---|---|
| API Key | --profile <live-profile> |
--profile <demo-profile> |
| OAuth | (no flag needed, live is default) | --demo |
- API Key users: run
okx config show --jsonto discover available profile names and theirdemosettings. Use--profile <name>to select the correct one. - OAuth users: omit flags for live trading; add
--demofor simulated trading. Do not use--profileto switch modes.
Handling Authentication Errors
Authentication error (error contains "401", "Session expired", or "Run okx auth login first"):
- Stop immediately — do not retry the same command
- Inform the user: "Authentication failed. Your session may have expired."
- Load
okx-cex-authskill and follow the re-authentication steps - After successful re-authentication, retry the original command
Demo vs Live Mode
| Mode | Funds | API Key param | OAuth param |
|---|---|---|---|
| 实盘 (live) | Real funds | --profile <live-profile> |
(default, no flag) |
| 模拟盘 (demo) | Simulated funds | --profile <demo-profile> |
--demo |
# API Key user
okx --profile okx-prod account balance # 实盘
okx --profile okx-demo account balance # 模拟盘
# OAuth user
okx account balance # 实盘 (default)
okx --demo account balance # 模拟盘
Rules:
- Read commands (balance, positions, bills, etc.): always state which mode was used
- Write commands (
transfer,set-position-mode): mode must be confirmed before execution (see "Credential & Profile Check" Step B); transfer especially — wrong mode means wrong account - Every response after a command must append:
[mode: live]or[mode: demo]
Skill Routing
- For market data (prices, charts, depth, funding rates) → use
okx-cex-market - For account balance, P&L, positions, fees, transfers → use
okx-cex-portfolio(this skill) - For regular spot/swap/futures/algo orders → use

Operation Flow
Step 0 — Credential & Profile Check
Before any authenticated command: see Credential & Profile Check. Determine auth method and trading mode before executing.
After every command result: append [mode: live] or [mode: demo] to the response
Step 1: Identify account action
- Check balance →
okx account balance(trading equity only) orokx account asset-balance(funding balances) orokx account asset-balance --valuation(total across all accounts in USDT) - View open positions →
okx account positions - View closed positions + PnL →
okx account positions-history - View transaction history →
okx account bills - Check fee tier →
okx account fees - Check account settings →
okx account config - Calculate order size →
okx account max-sizeorokx account max-avail-size - Check withdrawal limit →
okx account max-withdrawal - Transfer funds →
okx account transfer - Change position mode →
okx account set-position-mode
Step 2: Run read commands immediately — confirm profile (Step 0) then writes
Read commands (1–10): run immediately, no confirmation needed.
ccyfilter: use currency symbol likeUSDT,BTC,ETH--instTypefor fees/positions:SPOT,SWAP,FUTURES,OPTION--archivefor bills: access older records beyond the default window--tdModefor max-size:cash(spot),cross, orisolated
Write commands (11–12): confirm once before executing.
set-position-mode: confirm mode (net= one-directional,long_short_mode= hedge mode); switching may affect open positionstransfer: confirm--ccy,--amt,--from,--to(account types:6=funding,18=trading); verify source balance first
Step 3: Verify after writes

Where Can the Money Live?
OKX splits assets across multiple sub-accounts. The --valuation breakdown maps directly:
| Account type | details key |
Used for | Check with |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trading (unified) | trading |
Spot, margin, swap, futures, options | okx account balance or details.trading in --valuation |
| Funding | funding |
Deposits/withdrawals, idle funds | okx account asset-balance or details.funding in --valuation |
| Earn | earn |
Simple earn, staking, savings | details.earn in --valuation |
| Classic | classic |
Classic account (legacy, less common) | details.classic in --valuation |
Typical flow when user says "I have X USDT but can't trade":
okx account asset-balance --valuation→ look at eachdetails.*field- If
details.fundingis large anddetails.tradingis small → the funds are in the funding account - Transfer:
okx account transfer --ccy USDT --amt <n> --from 6 --to 18 - Confirm:
okx account balance USDT→ equity should now reflect the transferred amount
Edge Cases
- No balance shown: balance is filtered to > 0 — if nothing shows, all currencies have zero balance
- Positions command returns empty: no open contracts; spot holdings are not shown here (use
account balance) - bills --archive: required for transactions older than 7 days (default window); may be slower
- set-position-mode: cannot switch to
netif you have both long and short positions on the same instrument - transfer --from/--to codes:
6=funding account,18=trading account; other values exist for sub-account flows - max-size vs max-avail-size:
max-sizeis the theoretical maximum;max-avail-sizeaccounts for existing orders and reserved margin - Demo mode:
okx --demo account balance(OAuth) orokx --profile <demo-profile> account balance(API Key) shows simulated balances, not real funds
Global Notes
- All write commands require valid credentials (OAuth session or API key in
~/.okx/config.toml) - Auth method and trading mode are determined in "Credential & Profile Check"; see that section for parameter rules
- Every command result includes a
[mode: live]or[mode: demo]tag for audit reference --jsonreturns the raw OKX API v5 response by default. Add--envto wrap the output as{"env": "<live|demo>", "profile": "<name>", "data": <response>}- Rate limit: 10 requests per 2 seconds for account endpoints
- Positions shown are for the unified trading account; funding account assets are separate
- Account types:
6=Funding Account (deposits/withdrawals),18=Unified Trading Account (spot + derivatives)
