## Documentation

### SOHO Pay - Credit Layer Payments

This skill allows the agent to initiate payments through the SOHO Pay Creditor smart contract using the spendWithAuthorization EIP-712 flow.

The agent signs the payment authorization off-chain using a pre-configured wallet, and then submits the transaction to the network on the user's behalf.

### Core Command

The primary way to use this skill is with a natural language command that maps to:

pay <amount> to <merchant_address>

<amount>: The numerical amount to pay (e.g., 10, 0.5).
<merchant_address>: The recipient EVM address (0x...). Names are not supported and no random addresses are ever generated by this skill.

### Payments (credit spend)

When you issue a pay command, the skill performs the following actions:

Parse Inputs: Extracts the amount and merchant address from the user's request.
Validate Merchant Address: Confirms that the merchant is a valid EVM address; otherwise it aborts.
Pre-Flight Checks (BorrowerManager):

Verifies the borrower is registered and active.
Checks if the credit limit is sufficient for the requested amount.
On demand, can auto-register the agent once via registerAgent.


Generate Authorization: Creates an EIP-712 typed data message for the payment.
Sign Off-Chain: Uses the configured PRIVATE_KEY wallet (from environment variables) to sign the authorization message.
Execute On-Chain: Calls the spendWithAuthorization function on the Creditor contract, providing the signed message.
Report Result: Returns the transaction hash to the user upon confirmation.

### Status / Profile checks

The status helper reads the BorrowerManager profile + USDC wallet balance for the bot:

Calls the s_borrowerProfiles(address) public mapping getter to fetch:
creditLimit, outstandingDebt, totalSpent, totalRepaid, spendingCount, repaymentCount, lastActivityTime, creditScore, isActive, isAgent, transactionIds.
Calls IERC20(USDC).balanceOf(bot) to fetch the USDC wallet balance for the same address.
Prints a human-readable summary so you can see, per network:

Whether the bot is registered / active
Credit limit and whether the profile is flagged as an agent
Outstanding debt and historical spend/repay totals
Last activity timestamp and credit score
USDC balance available in the wallet

This is what powers prompts like:

"check my bot status on testnet"
"check my bot outstanding debt on mainnet"

### Repayments (reduce outstanding debt)

The repay helper uses USDC to pay down outstandingDebt tracked by BorrowerManager and Creditor:

Pre-flight checks:

Verifies the borrower is registered and active.
Reads current credit limit and any existing outstandingDebt\`.


USDC balance & allowance:

Ensures the bot wallet has enough USDC balance for the requested repayment.
Checks IERC20(USDC).allowance(bot, Creditor) and, if too low, sends an approve(Creditor, amount) tx first.


On-chain repay:

Calls Creditor.repay(amount, USDC) from the borrower wallet.
The Creditor contract:

Caps the repayment to min(amount, outstandingDebt).
Applies payments to BNPL plans via applyPaymentToPlans.
Updates the borrower profile via updateOnRepayment (new score + limit).
Transfers USDC from the borrower to the Vault and calls vault.repayVaultDebt.


Emits a repayment event with the new score and limit.


Status after repay:

After a successful repay, you can run status again to verify:

outstandingDebt has decreased (or is 0),
totalRepaid increased,
creditScore and creditLimit have been updated.

This is what backs prompts like:

"repay my bot debt on testnet"
"repay 5 USDC of my bot debt on mainnet"

### Configuration

Environment Variable (runtime): The private key for the signing wallet must be provided via the PRIVATE_KEY environment variable.
Why the private key is needed: OpenClaw is designed to run as an autonomous agent. For it to initiate SOHO Pay transactions without human clicks, it must be able to sign EIP-712 authorizations itself.
Local-only usage (important): PRIVATE_KEY is used only locally on the machine running OpenClaw. The raw key is never sent to SOHO Pay, ClawHub, or any external service — only signed messages and transactions leave the machine. Anyone running this bot must understand that the key controls whatever funds are on the selected network.
Skill Metadata: The skill declares PRIVATE_KEY as a required, sensitive credential. You can use a single key for both Base mainnet and Base Sepolia, but be aware this may control real funds on mainnet.
Networks: The script supports both Base mainnet (default) and Base Sepolia (testnet). It enforces the expected chainId for the selected network and aborts if the RPC does not match.

### Defaults

The following values are hardcoded into the script for consistency, and are used on both Base mainnet and Base Sepolia:

Creditor Contract: 0xdb34d612dd9aa548f6c94af118f82a461a835e09
Borrower Manager: 0xc6ecd37c42ee73714956b6a449b41bc1d46b07b0
Asset (USDC): 0x43848d5a4efa0b1c72e1fd8ece1abf42e9d5e221 (6 decimals)
Payment Plan ID: 0

### Setup, Installation & Dependencies

This skill is a small Node.js project under skills/sohopay.

Set PRIVATE_KEY in the environment where OpenClaw runs:
export PRIVATE_KEY=0xYOUR_KEY_HERE

This address will be the SOHO Pay "agent" on Base mainnet / Base Sepolia.


Install the skill and dependencies:
clawhub install sohopay
cd skills/sohopay
npm install

This installs the runtime dependencies declared in package.json (currently ethers and dotenv).


Register the agent once on the chosen network (before making payments):
# Base mainnet (default)
node scripts/register.js

# Explicit mainnet
node scripts/register.js mainnet

# Base Sepolia testnet
node scripts/register.js testnet

This calls registerAgent(agent) on the BorrowerManager contract using the PRIVATE_KEY address.


Make payments after registration using scripts/pay.js:
# Base mainnet (default when no network arg is given)
node scripts/pay.js 10 0xMerchantOnMainnet

# Explicit mainnet
node scripts/pay.js mainnet 10 0xMerchantOnMainnet

# Base Sepolia testnet
node scripts/pay.js testnet 10 0xMerchantOnTestnet

This uses the SOHO Pay Creditor contract to spend on credit via spendWithAuthorization.


Check status / profile and balances using scripts/status.js:
# Base mainnet
node scripts/status.js mainnet

# Base Sepolia testnet
node scripts/status.js testnet

This reads the BorrowerManager profile and USDC wallet balance for the agent and prints a human-readable summary (credit limit, outstanding debt, totals, scores, and USDC balance).


Repay outstanding debt using USDC with scripts/repay.js:
# Base mainnet
node scripts/repay.js mainnet 10

# Base Sepolia testnet
node scripts/repay.js testnet 10

This uses USDC from the agent wallet to repay outstandingDebt via the Creditor contract, updating the borrower profile and vault debt, and emitting a repayment event.

### Security Notes

PRIVATE_KEY is highly sensitive. Treat it exactly like the key to a normal wallet: anyone with this value can move all funds it controls.
Local signing only: The script signs transactions locally and never transmits the raw private key over the network. Only signatures and transactions are sent to RPC endpoints.
This skill never triggers itself; it is only executed when called by a user, cron job, or higher-level workflow. It is safe to wire into autonomous flows (e.g. “if price < 10, then pay …”) as long as you understand what those automations will do with your PRIVATE_KEY.
The merchant must be provided as an explicit merchant_address. If the address is wrong, funds on that network may be irrecoverably sent to the wrong account.
No random address generation is performed. The skill will refuse non-address merchant inputs.

### Natural-language commands

These are the kinds of prompts you can send to your OpenClaw agent once the skill is installed and PRIVATE_KEY is configured.

Register bot (testnet)
"register my bot to use sohopay on Base Sepolia testnet"


Register bot (mainnet)
"register my bot to use sohopay on Base mainnet"


Pay a merchant (EIP‑712 spendWithAuthorization)
"pay 10 USDC to 0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678 on testnet using sohopay"


Check bot status (credit limit, outstanding debt, totals, USDC balance)
"check my bot status on testnet"
"check my bot outstanding debt on mainnet"


Repay debt (calls Creditor.repay(amount, stablecoin))
"repay my bot debt on testnet"
"repay 5 USDC of my bot debt on mainnet"

### Script entrypoints (for reference)

Registration: node scripts/register.js [mainnet|testnet] [check]

node scripts/register.js testnet – register bot on Base Sepolia
node scripts/register.js mainnet check – status only, no tx



Payments (credit spend):

node scripts/pay.js [mainnet|testnet] <amount> <merchant_address>



Status (profile + outstanding debt + USDC balance):

node scripts/status.js mainnet
node scripts/status.js testnet



Repayments (reduce outstanding debt using USDC):

node scripts/repay.js [mainnet|testnet] <amount>

When mapped through OpenClaw, you should prefer natural-language prompts; the scripts above are provided for debugging and manual CLI use.
