A universal Ethereum swiss army knife with an AI duck taped onto it.
A CLI for non-technical users, trying to bridge the gap between graphical UIs and CLIs.
A framework for rapid tool building; integrate a new tool in a matter of hours.
An extensible framework composed of hardhat plugins.
Example usages:
ethernaut what is the total supply of USDC
or
ethernaut complete level 2 of the ethernaut challenges
It can also be used as a regular cli:
ethernaut util unit 5 --from ether --to wei
And also features an interactive mode that allows easy navigation of tasks and collection of task arguments.
This CLI is mean to be installed globally, and not as a per-project task runner as hardhat is normally used for.
npm i -g ethernaut-cli
No more man pages. No more --help.
Just type ethernaut and jump straight into an enquirer based navigation mode. Select a scope, select a task, and boom.
Navigation demo
Once in a task, interactive mode kicks in, and parameters are collected through enquirer prompts.
Enquirer param collection
This is still a regular CLI app, so commands can be called without all the fancy ui or ai stuff:
Normal CLI mode
Plugins of plugins? Why not.
Plugins that enhance parameter collection prompts in other plugins with even cooler prompts, smart suggestions, etc.
For example, the ui extension of the interact plugin can fetch the abi from Etherscan if you didn't provide an abi:
Custom ABI Prompt
But after you've interacted with the contract, it already has the abi, so the abi is instead suggested:
Abi suggestion
Another example is the extension for the model param in ethernaut ai config --model, which queries the openai API and presents a list of available models.
If that wasn't easy enough, just type whatever you want and AI will kick in to try to make sense of what you typed, and the right command or sequence of commands will be executed.
Ai natural language interpretation
You want the AI to also teach you how the commands work? Sure.
Ai command explanation
You want the AI to also teach you about Ethereum. Also sure.
Complete level 1
You don't have to use this entire plethora of features tho. You can use a single feature in your regular hardhat project with exactly what you need. This is because the ethernaut-cli is completely built with hardhat plugins.
You just want task navigation and interactive mode in your project: use the ethernaut-ui plugin.
Or the ai stuff: use ethernaut-ai plugin.
All the plugins combined conform the ethernaut-cli.
