Aavegotchi GBM Skill

View, create, cancel, bid, and claim Aavegotchi GBM auctions on Base mainnet (8453). Subgraph-first discovery (Goldsky), with onchain verification + execution via Foundry cast. Safety-first: DRY_RUN defaults to 1 (simulate with cast call; only broadcast with cast send when DRY_RUN=0 and explicitly instructed).

Safety Rules

• Default to DRY_RUN=1. Never broadcast unless explicitly instructed.
• Always verify Base mainnet:
  • ~/.foundry/bin/cast chain-id --rpc-url "${BASE_MAINNET_RPC:-https://mainnet.base.org}" must be 8453.
• Always verify key/address alignment:
  • ~/.foundry/bin/cast wallet address --private-key "$PRIVATE_KEY" must equal $FROM_ADDRESS.
• Always refetch from the subgraph immediately before any simulate/broadcast step (auctions can be outbid, ended, claimed, or cancelled).
• Always gate onchain immediately before simulating or broadcasting:
  • ensure the onchain highestBid matches the highestBid you pass into commitBid / swapAndCommitBid.
  • ensure token params match (token contract, token id, quantity).
• Never print or log $PRIVATE_KEY.

Shell Input Safety (Avoid RCE)

This skill includes shell commands. Treat any value you copy from a user or an external source (subgraph responses, chat messages, etc.) as untrusted.

Rules:

• Never execute user-provided strings as shell code (avoid eval, bash -c, sh -c).
• Only substitute addresses that match 0x + 40 hex chars.
• Only substitute uint values that are base-10 digits (no commas, no decimals).
• In the command examples below, auction-specific inputs are written as quoted placeholders like "<AUCTION_ID>" to avoid accidental shell interpolation. Replace them with literal values only after validation.

Quick validators (replace the placeholder values):

bash

python3 - <<'PY'
import re

auction_id = "<AUCTION_ID>"                 # digits only
token_contract = "<TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS>" # 0x + 40 hex chars
token_id = "<TOKEN_ID>"                     # digits only
amount = "<TOKEN_AMOUNT>"                   # digits only

if not re.fullmatch(r"[0-9]+", auction_id):
    raise SystemExit("AUCTION_ID must be base-10 digits only")
if not re.fullmatch(r"0x[a-fA-F0-9]{40}", token_contract):
    raise SystemExit("TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS must be a 0x + 40-hex address")
if not re.fullmatch(r"[0-9]+", token_id):
    raise SystemExit("TOKEN_ID must be base-10 digits only")
if not re.fullmatch(r"[0-9]+", amount):
    raise SystemExit("TOKEN_AMOUNT must be base-10 digits only")

print("ok")
PY

Required Setup

Required env vars:

• PRIVATE_KEY: EOA private key used for cast send (never print/log).
• FROM_ADDRESS: EOA address that owns NFTs and will submit txs.
• BASE_MAINNET_RPC: RPC URL. If unset, use https://mainnet.base.org.
• GBM_SUBGRAPH_URL: Goldsky subgraph endpoint for auctions.

Optional env vars:

• DRY_RUN: 1 (default) to only simulate via cast call. Set to 0 to broadcast via cast send.
• RECIPIENT_ADDRESS: for swap flows; receives any excess GHST refunded by the contract. Defaults to FROM_ADDRESS.
• GOLDSKY_API_KEY: optional; if set, include Authorization: Bearer ... header in subgraph calls.
• SLIPPAGE_PCT: defaults to 1 (%); used in swapAmount estimate math.
• GHST_USD_PRICE, ETH_USD_PRICE: optional overrides; if unset, fetch from CoinGecko in the swap math snippets.

Recommended defaults (override via env if needed):

bash

export BASE_MAINNET_RPC="${BASE_MAINNET_RPC:-https://mainnet.base.org}"
export GBM_DIAMOND="${GBM_DIAMOND:-0x80320A0000C7A6a34086E2ACAD6915Ff57FfDA31}"
export GHST="${GHST:-0xcD2F22236DD9Dfe2356D7C543161D4d260FD9BcB}"
export USDC="${USDC:-0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54BDA02913}"
export GBM_SUBGRAPH_URL="${GBM_SUBGRAPH_URL:-https://api.goldsky.com/api/public/project_cmh3flagm0001r4p25foufjtt/subgraphs/aavegotchi-gbm-baazaar-base/prod/gn}"
export DRY_RUN="${DRY_RUN:-1}"
export SLIPPAGE_PCT="${SLIPPAGE_PCT:-1}"

Notes:

• Commands below use ~/.foundry/bin/cast so they work in cron/non-interactive shells.

View / List Auctions (Subgraph First)

See references/subgraph.md for canonical queries.

Auction by id (quick):

bash

curl -s "$GBM_SUBGRAPH_URL" -H 'content-type: application/json' ${GOLDSKY_API_KEY:+-H "Authorization: Bearer $GOLDSKY_API_KEY"} --data '{
  "query":"query($id:ID!){ auction(id:$id){ id type contractAddress tokenId quantity seller highestBid highestBidder totalBids startsAt endsAt claimAt claimed cancelled presetId category buyNowPrice startBidPrice } }",
  "variables":{"id":"<AUCTION_ID>"}
}'

Active auctions (ends soonest first):

bash

NOW=$(date +%s)
curl -s "$GBM_SUBGRAPH_URL" -H 'content-type: application/json' ${GOLDSKY_API_KEY:+-H "Authorization: Bearer $GOLDSKY_API_KEY"} --data "{
  \"query\":\"query(\$now:BigInt!){ auctions(first:20, orderBy: endsAt, orderDirection: asc, where:{claimed:false, cancelled:false, startsAt_lte:\$now, endsAt_gt:\$now}){ id type contractAddress tokenId quantity highestBid highestBidder totalBids startsAt endsAt claimAt presetId category seller } }\",
  \"variables\":{\"now\":\"$NOW\"}
}"

Onchain Verification (Required Before Bids / Sends)

The onchain source of truth is the GBM diamond.

Confirm core auction fields (full struct decode):

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" \
  'getAuctionInfo(uint256)((address,uint96,address,uint88,uint88,bool,bool,address,(uint80,uint80,uint56,uint8,bytes4,uint256,uint96,uint96),(uint64,uint64,uint64,uint64,uint256),uint96,uint96))' \
  "<AUCTION_ID>" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Useful individual getters:

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'getAuctionHighestBid(uint256)(uint256)' "<AUCTION_ID>" --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"
~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'getAuctionHighestBidder(uint256)(address)' "<AUCTION_ID>" --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"
~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'getAuctionStartTime(uint256)(uint256)' "<AUCTION_ID>" --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"
~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'getAuctionEndTime(uint256)(uint256)' "<AUCTION_ID>" --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"
~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'getContractAddress(uint256)(address)' "<AUCTION_ID>" --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"
~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'getTokenId(uint256)(uint256)' "<AUCTION_ID>" --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"
~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'getTokenKind(uint256)(bytes4)' "<AUCTION_ID>" --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Create Auction

Onchain method:

• createAuction((uint80,uint80,uint56,uint8,bytes4,uint256,uint96,uint96),address,uint256)(uint256)

High-level steps:

1. Ensure the token contract is whitelisted on the GBM diamond (otherwise revert ContractNotAllowed).
2. Ensure the token is approved to the GBM diamond:
   • ERC721/1155: setApprovalForAll(GBM_DIAMOND,true)
3. Choose InitiatorInfo:
   • startTime must be in the future.
   • endTime - startTime must be between 3600 and 604800 seconds (1h to 7d).
   • tokenKind is 0x73ad2146 (ERC721) or 0x973bb640 (ERC1155).
   • buyItNowPrice optional; startingBid optional (if nonzero, you must approve GHST for the 4% prepaid fee).
4. Simulate with cast call using --from "$FROM_ADDRESS".
5. Broadcast with cast send only when explicitly instructed (DRY_RUN=0).
6. Post-tx: query subgraph for newest seller auctions and match (contractAddress, tokenId).

Simulate create (ERC721 example):

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" \
  'createAuction((uint80,uint80,uint56,uint8,bytes4,uint256,uint96,uint96),address,uint256)(uint256)' \
  "(<START_TIME>,<END_TIME>,1,<CATEGORY>,0x73ad2146,<TOKEN_ID>,<BUY_NOW_GHST_WEI>,<STARTING_BID_GHST_WEI>)" \
  "<ERC721_CONTRACT_ADDRESS>" "<PRESET_ID>" \
  --from "$FROM_ADDRESS" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Broadcast create (only when explicitly instructed):

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast send "$GBM_DIAMOND" \
  'createAuction((uint80,uint80,uint56,uint8,bytes4,uint256,uint96,uint96),address,uint256)(uint256)' \
  "(<START_TIME>,<END_TIME>,1,<CATEGORY>,0x73ad2146,<TOKEN_ID>,<BUY_NOW_GHST_WEI>,<STARTING_BID_GHST_WEI>)" \
  "<ERC721_CONTRACT_ADDRESS>" "<PRESET_ID>" \
  --private-key "$PRIVATE_KEY" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Post-create (find your newest auctions and confirm):

bash

curl -s "$GBM_SUBGRAPH_URL" -H 'content-type: application/json' ${GOLDSKY_API_KEY:+-H "Authorization: Bearer $GOLDSKY_API_KEY"} --data '{
  "query":"query($seller:Bytes!){ auctions(first:10, orderBy: createdAt, orderDirection: desc, where:{seller:$seller}){ id type contractAddress tokenId quantity createdAt startsAt endsAt claimed cancelled } }",
  "variables":{"seller":"<FROM_ADDRESS_LOWERCASE>"}
}'

Cancel Auction

Onchain method:

• cancelAuction(uint256)

Steps:

1. Subgraph: check claimed, cancelled, endsAt, highestBid.
2. Onchain: call getAuctionInfo(auctionId) to verify ownership and state.
3. Simulate with cast call (--from "$FROM_ADDRESS").
4. Broadcast only when explicitly instructed.

Simulate:

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'cancelAuction(uint256)' "<AUCTION_ID>" \
  --from "$FROM_ADDRESS" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Broadcast (only when explicitly instructed):

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast send "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'cancelAuction(uint256)' "<AUCTION_ID>" \
  --private-key "$PRIVATE_KEY" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Bid With GHST (commitBid)

Onchain method:

• commitBid(uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,bytes) (last bytes is ignored; pass 0x)

Steps:

1. Subgraph: fetch auction fields (id, contractAddress, tokenId, quantity, highestBid, startsAt, endsAt, claimed/cancelled).
2. Onchain: refetch highestBid and token params; you must pass the exact current onchain highestBid or it reverts UnmatchedHighestBid.
3. Compute a safe minimum next bid using references/bid-math.md (uses onchain bidDecimals + stepMin).
4. Ensure GHST allowance to the GBM diamond covers bidAmount.
5. Simulate via cast call (optional but recommended).
6. Broadcast only when explicitly instructed.

Simulate:

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" \
  'commitBid(uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,bytes)' \
  "<AUCTION_ID>" "<BID_AMOUNT_GHST_WEI>" "<HIGHEST_BID_GHST_WEI>" "<TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS>" "<TOKEN_ID>" "<TOKEN_AMOUNT>" 0x \
  --from "$FROM_ADDRESS" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Broadcast (only when explicitly instructed):

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast send "$GBM_DIAMOND" \
  'commitBid(uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,bytes)' \
  "<AUCTION_ID>" "<BID_AMOUNT_GHST_WEI>" "<HIGHEST_BID_GHST_WEI>" "<TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS>" "<TOKEN_ID>" "<TOKEN_AMOUNT>" 0x \
  --private-key "$PRIVATE_KEY" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Bid With USDC Swap (swapAndCommitBid)

Onchain method:

• swapAndCommitBid((address,uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,bytes))

Struct fields (in order):

1. tokenIn (USDC)
2. swapAmount (USDC 6dp)
3. minGhstOut (GHST wei; must be >= bidAmount)
4. swapDeadline (unix; must be <= now + 86400)
5. recipient (refund receiver for excess GHST)
6. auctionID
7. bidAmount (GHST wei)
8. highestBid (must match onchain)
9. tokenContract
10. tokenID
11. amount (tokenAmount/quantity)
12. _signature (ignored; pass 0x)

Compute swapAmount estimate in references/swap-math.md.

Simulate:

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" \
  'swapAndCommitBid((address,uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,bytes))' \
  "($USDC,<SWAP_AMOUNT_USDC_6DP>,<MIN_GHST_OUT_GHST_WEI>,<SWAP_DEADLINE_UNIX>,${RECIPIENT_ADDRESS:-$FROM_ADDRESS},<AUCTION_ID>,<BID_AMOUNT_GHST_WEI>,<HIGHEST_BID_GHST_WEI>,<TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS>,<TOKEN_ID>,<TOKEN_AMOUNT>,0x)" \
  --from "$FROM_ADDRESS" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Broadcast (only when explicitly instructed):

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast send "$GBM_DIAMOND" \
  'swapAndCommitBid((address,uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,bytes))' \
  "($USDC,<SWAP_AMOUNT_USDC_6DP>,<MIN_GHST_OUT_GHST_WEI>,<SWAP_DEADLINE_UNIX>,${RECIPIENT_ADDRESS:-$FROM_ADDRESS},<AUCTION_ID>,<BID_AMOUNT_GHST_WEI>,<HIGHEST_BID_GHST_WEI>,<TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS>,<TOKEN_ID>,<TOKEN_AMOUNT>,0x)" \
  --private-key "$PRIVATE_KEY" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Bid With ETH Swap (swapAndCommitBid)

Same method as above, but:

• tokenIn = 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
• --value <SWAP_AMOUNT_WEI> must equal the swapAmount you pass inside the tuple.

Broadcast (only when explicitly instructed):

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast send "$GBM_DIAMOND" \
  'swapAndCommitBid((address,uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256,uint256,bytes))' \
  "(0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000,<SWAP_AMOUNT_WEI>,<MIN_GHST_OUT_GHST_WEI>,<SWAP_DEADLINE_UNIX>,${RECIPIENT_ADDRESS:-$FROM_ADDRESS},<AUCTION_ID>,<BID_AMOUNT_GHST_WEI>,<HIGHEST_BID_GHST_WEI>,<TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS>,<TOKEN_ID>,<TOKEN_AMOUNT>,0x)" \
  --value "<SWAP_AMOUNT_WEI>" \
  --private-key "$PRIVATE_KEY" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Claim Auction

Onchain methods:

• claim(uint256)
• batchClaim(uint256[])

Claim readiness:

• Auction owner can claim at now >= endsAt.
• Highest bidder can claim at now >= endsAt + cancellationTime.
  • cancellationTime is readable from storage slot 12 (see references/recipes.md).
  • Subgraph may provide claimAt (if populated), but always verify onchain.

Simulate:

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'claim(uint256)' "<AUCTION_ID>" \
  --from "$FROM_ADDRESS" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Broadcast (only when explicitly instructed):

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast send "$GBM_DIAMOND" 'claim(uint256)' "<AUCTION_ID>" \
  --private-key "$PRIVATE_KEY" \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Optional: Buy Now

Onchain methods:

• buyNow(uint256)
• swapAndBuyNow((address,uint256,uint256,uint256,address,uint256))

These are not required for the primary use case, but are adjacent to bidding flows. If you use them, follow the same safety gating:

• refetch from subgraph
• verify onchain price/state
• simulate (cast call)
• only broadcast when explicitly instructed

Smoke Tests (No Funds Required)

1. Subgraph reachable (introspection lists auction, auctions, bid, bids):

bash

curl -s "$GBM_SUBGRAPH_URL" -H 'content-type: application/json' ${GOLDSKY_API_KEY:+-H "Authorization: Bearer $GOLDSKY_API_KEY"} --data '{ "query":"{ __schema { queryType { fields { name } } } }" }' \
  | python3 -c 'import json,sys; f=[x[\"name\"] for x in json.load(sys.stdin)[\"data\"][\"__schema\"][\"queryType\"][\"fields\"]]; print([n for n in f if n in (\"auction\",\"auctions\",\"bid\",\"bids\")])'

2. Subgraph data sane:

bash

curl -s "$GBM_SUBGRAPH_URL" -H 'content-type: application/json' ${GOLDSKY_API_KEY:+-H "Authorization: Bearer $GOLDSKY_API_KEY"} --data '{\"query\":\"query($id:ID!){ auction(id:$id){ id contractAddress tokenId } }\",\"variables\":{\"id\":\"0\"}}'

3. Onchain reachable + matches subgraph:

bash

~/.foundry/bin/cast call "$GBM_DIAMOND" \
  'getAuctionInfo(uint256)((address,uint96,address,uint88,uint88,bool,bool,address,(uint80,uint80,uint56,uint8,bytes4,uint256,uint96,uint96),(uint64,uint64,uint64,uint64,uint256),uint96,uint96))' \
  0 \
  --rpc-url "$BASE_MAINNET_RPC"

Common Failure Modes

• UnmatchedHighestBid: you passed a stale highestBid param. Refetch onchain and retry.
• InvalidAuctionParams: token contract / id / amount mismatch. Refetch and verify.
• AuctionNotStarted / AuctionEnded: timing mismatch. Check startsAt/endsAt (subgraph + onchain).
• AuctionClaimed: already claimed or cancelled. Check claimed (subgraph + onchain).
• BiddingNotAllowed: diamond paused, contract bidding disabled, or re-entrancy lock. Refetch onchain state.
• Swap errors:
  • LibTokenSwap: swapAmount must be > 0
  • LibTokenSwap: deadline expired
  • LibTokenSwap: Insufficient output amount (increase swapAmount or slippage)
