## ⛔ HARD RULES (read first, always)
- **ALWAYS** call `ethena_rate` before any on-chain operation — cooldown duration is live from chain, not a constant
- **NEVER** call `wallet_transfer` directly — use `ethena_*` native tools only (wallet_transfer triggers UI block in deny-all policy)
- **NEVER** hardcode cooldown as "7 days" — actual value is fetched per request (currently ~24h)
- **NEVER** guess or assume the sUSDe/USDe exchange rate — call `ethena_rate`
- **HARD LIMIT**: max 5 tool calls per user request
- **ON-CHAIN EXECUTION**: after `ethena_*` returns calldata, sign and broadcast via `wallet_sign_transaction` — NEVER skip or simulate

# Ethena — USDe Staking
Ethena lets users stake USDe to receive sUSDe, an ERC4626 yield-bearing token. Rewards accrue from ETH staking + funding rate delta-hedging. sUSDe value only increases or stays flat — never decreases.
## Key Contracts (Ethereum Mainnet)
| Contract | Address |
|----------|---------|
| USDe | `0x4c9EDD5852cd905f086C759E8383e09bff1E68B3` |
| sUSDe (StakedUSDe) | `0x9D39A5DE30e57443BfF2A8307A4256c8797A3497` |
| USDeSilo (cooldown) | `0x7FC7c91D556B400AFa565013E3F32055a0713425` |
## Native Tools
| Tool | When to use | Returns |
|------|-------------|---------|
| `ethena_rate()` | Rate query, before any tx, cooldown check | rate, totalAssets, totalSupply, cooldown_seconds |
| `ethena_apy()` | APY / yield / return question | apy_current, apy_7d, apy_30d, tvl_usd |
| `ethena_balance(wallet)` | Balance check | usde_balance, susde_balance, cooldown_end_ts |
| `ethena_stake(amount, receiver)` | Stake USDe | 2 tx calldata (approve + deposit) |
| `ethena_cooldown_start(amount)` | Start unstake | cooldown tx calldata + live cooldown_hours |
| `ethena_unstake(receiver)` | Claim after cooldown | unstake tx calldata |
## End-to-End Execution — Sign & Broadcast
`ethena_*` tools return **unsigned calldata**. To actually execute on-chain:
```
ethena_stake / ethena_cooldown_start / ethena_unstake
↓ returns tx dict {to, data, value, chain_id}
wallet_sign_transaction(tx) ← wallet skill
↓ returns signed_tx hex
wallet_sign_transaction broadcast ← same call, auto-broadcasts
```
### Standard Flow (stake example)
```
Step 1 ethena_rate() # confirm rate + cooldown before tx
Step 2 ethena_stake("100", receiver) # returns [approve_tx, deposit_tx]
Step 3 wallet_sign_transaction(approve_tx, broadcast=True)
Step 4 wallet_sign_transaction(deposit_tx, broadcast=True)
```
### Standard Flow (unstake)
```
Step 1 ethena_rate() # get live cooldown duration
Step 2 ethena_cooldown_start("100") # returns cooldown_tx
Step 3 wallet_sign_transaction(cooldown_tx, broadcast=True)
Step 4 [wait cooldown_hours]
Step 5 ethena_unstake(receiver) # returns unstake_tx
Step 6 wallet_sign_transaction(unstake_tx, broadcast=True)
```
### Cross-skill dependency
Load **wallet-policy** skill first to confirm wildcard policy is active. `wallet_sign_transaction` is part of the **wallet** skill — it is available natively; no extra install needed.
### Error handling
| Error | Cause | Fix |
|-------|-------|-----|
| 403 on sign | Privy policy deny-all | Approve wildcard policy in Web UI |
| nonce conflict | Two txs broadcast too fast | Wait for Step 3 receipt before Step 4 |
| gas estimate fail | Approve not mined yet | Add 5s delay between approve and deposit |
## Tool Routing — IF/THEN
```
IF "APY" OR "yield" OR "return" OR "收益率" OR "年化"
→ ethena_apy()
IF "rate" OR "price" OR "how much USDe per sUSDe" OR "汇率" OR "多少USDe"
→ ethena_rate()
IF "balance" OR "how much do I have" OR "余额"
→ ethena_balance(wallet_address)
IF "stake" OR "deposit" OR "质押" AND amount given
→ ethena_stake(amount, receiver)
IF "unstake" OR "redeem" OR "cooldown" OR "withdraw" OR "赎回" — starting flow
→ ethena_cooldown_start(amount)
IF "claim" OR "unstake" OR "withdraw" AND cooldown already done
→ ethena_unstake(receiver)
IF "how long" OR "cooldown duration" OR "等多久"
→ ethena_rate() ← returns cooldown_seconds live from chain
```
## Few-Shot Examples
**ETH-01 — APY query**
> "sUSDe 现在的 APY 是多少?"
```
ethena_apy()
→ "当前 APY 3.72%,7日均值 3.68%"
```
**ETH-02 — Rate query**
> "1 sUSDe 能换多少 USDe?"
```
ethena_rate()
→ "1 sUSDe = 1.227675 USDe(totalAssets/totalSupply 实时计算)"
```
**ETH-03 — Balance**
> "我有多少 USDe 和 sUSDe?"
```
ethena_balance("0x...")
→ {usde_balance: 500.0, susde_balance: 81.46, susde_in_usde: 100.0}
```
**ETH-04 — Stake**
> "帮我质押 100 USDe"
```
ethena_rate() # get live rate for estimate
ethena_stake("100", receiver="0x...")
→ [{approve tx}, {deposit tx}] # execute in order
```
**ETH-04b — Stake end-to-end (sign & broadcast)**
> "帮我质押 100 USDe,直接执行到链上"
```
ethena_rate() # Step 1: confirm rate
ethena_stake("100", receiver="0x...") # Step 2: get calldata
→ [approve_tx, deposit_tx]
wallet_sign_transaction(approve_tx, broadcast=True) # Step 3
wallet_sign_transaction(deposit_tx, broadcast=True) # Step 4
→ tx_hash confirmed
```
**ETH-06b — Unstake end-to-end (sign & broadcast)**
> "帮我开始赎回 50 sUSDe,直接发链上"
```
ethena_rate() # Step 1: get cooldown
ethena_cooldown_start("50") # Step 2: get calldata
→ {cooldown_tx, cooldown_hours: 24.0}
wallet_sign_transaction(cooldown_tx, broadcast=True) # Step 3
→ tx_hash confirmed, 等待 24h 后再调 ethena_unstake
```
**ETH-05 — Cooldown duration**
> "赎回要等多久?"
```
ethena_rate()
→ "cooldown_seconds: 86400 → 当前需等待 24 小时"
```
**ETH-06 — Start cooldown**
> "开始赎回 50 USDe 的 sUSDe"
```
ethena_cooldown_start("50")
→ {transaction: {...}, cooldown_hours: 24.0}
```
**ETH-07 — Claim after cooldown**
> "cooldown 到了,帮我提款"
```
ethena_unstake("0x...")
→ {transaction: {...}}
```
**ETH-08 — English yield query**
> "What's the current yield for staking USDe?"
```
ethena_apy()
→ "Current APY: 3.72%"
```
## How Staking Works
1. **Stake**: `ethena_stake` → approve USDe + deposit → receive sUSDe (ERC4626)
2. **Yield**: Protocol transfers USDe rewards every 8h, linearly vested over 8h (anti-sandwich)
3. **Unstake**: `ethena_cooldown_start` → wait cooldown (query live, currently ~24h) → `ethena_unstake`
sUSDe/USDe rate only goes up. Cooldown duration may change — always query `ethena_rate`.
After generating calldata via any `ethena_*` tool, **always follow up with `wallet_sign_transaction(tx, broadcast=True)`** to actually submit on-chain. Never stop at calldata generation.
## Prerequisites — Wallet Policy
Before any on-chain operation, ensure a wildcard wallet policy is active (deny key export + allow `*`). Load the **wallet-policy** skill if needed.
## Gotchas
- **Cooldown is ~24h** (not 7 days) — but always verify with `ethena_rate()` as it can change via governance
- **No negative rewards** — sUSDe value can only go up or stay flat
- **Rewards every 8h** — linearly vested, no sandwich opportunities
- sUSDe can be sold on DEXes without cooldown if liquidity exists
- **EU/EEA restriction** — sUSDe acquisition not offered in EU/EEA
