Sending USDC

Use the

npx awal@latest send

command to transfer USDC from the wallet to any Ethereum address or ENS name on Base.

Confirm wallet is initialized and authed

npx awal@latest status

If the wallet is not authenticated, refer to the

authenticate-wallet

skill.

Command Syntax

npx awal@latest send <amount> <recipient> [--chain <chain>] [--json]

Arguments

Argument	Description
`amount`	Amount to send: '$1.00', '1.00', or atomic units (1000000 = $1). Always single-quote amounts that use `$` to prevent bash variable expansion. If the number looks like atomic units (no decimal or > 100), treat as atomic units. Assume that people won't be sending more than 100 USDC the majority of the time
`recipient`	Ethereum address (0x...) or ENS name (vitalik.eth)

Options

Option	Description
`--chain <name>`	Blockchain network (default: base)
`--json`	Output result as JSON

Examples

# Send $1.00 USDC to an address
npx awal@latest send 1 0x1234...abcd

# Send $0.50 USDC to an ENS name
npx awal@latest send 0.50 vitalik.eth

# Send with dollar sign prefix (note the single quotes)
npx awal@latest send '$5.00' 0x1234...abcd

# Get JSON output
npx awal@latest send 1 vitalik.eth --json

ENS Resolution

ENS names are automatically resolved to addresses via Ethereum mainnet. The command will:

Detect ENS names (any string containing a dot that isn't a hex address)
Resolve the name to an address
Display both the ENS name and resolved address in the output

Prerequisites

Must be authenticated (

npx awal@latest awal status

to check,

npx awal@latest awal auth login

to sign in, see skill

authenticate-wallet

for more information)

Wallet must have sufficient USDC balance (
```
npx awal balance
```
to check)

Error Handling

Common errors:

"Not authenticated" - Run
```
awal auth login <email>
```
first
"Insufficient balance" - Check balance with
```
awal balance
```
"Could not resolve ENS name" - Verify the ENS name exists
"Invalid recipient" - Must be valid 0x address or ENS name
