Hyperliquid Trading

Trade perpetual futures and spot tokens on Hyperliquid, a fully on-chain decentralized exchange. Orders are signed using this agent's EVM wallet and submitted directly to the Hyperliquid L1.

Prerequisites

Before trading, the wallet policy must be active. Load the wallet-policy skill and propose the standard wildcard policy (deny key export + allow *). This covers all Hyperliquid operations — USDC deposits, EIP-712 order signing, and withdrawals.

Runtime Model: Agent Tools vs Service Scripts (Important)

Hyperliquid has two execution modes. Use the right one for your workflow:

1) Agent tool mode (chat/task runtime)

Use hl_* tools directly in agent conversations and task scripts that run inside the Starchild tool runtime.

• Best for: human-in-the-loop operations, ad-hoc trades, monitoring flows, orchestration across multiple skills
• Strength: fastest integration with built-in verification workflow (check → execute → verify)
• Limitation: hl_* tools are tool-runtime capabilities, not normal Python imports
