# Manage Alkahest Escrow Workflows

Alkahest workflows require precise CLI commands and contract context. This skill guides escrow, payment, arbitration, and attestation operations for protocol users.

## Capabilities

- Shows Alkahest CLI setup and supported chains for Base Sepolia, Sepolia, and Ethereum mainnet.
- Guides buyers through encoding demands and creating ERC20, ERC721, native token, and barter escrows.
- Guides sellers through fulfillment attestations, oracle arbitration, escrow collection, and barter fulfillment.
- Explains commit-reveal flows, bond actions, confirmation arbiters, and payment commands.
- Provides TypeScript SDK examples for complex workflows and auto-arbitration listeners.
- References contract addresses, obligation schemas, and arbiter demand formats.

## Use Cases

- Buyer escrow setup: Plan an Alkahest escrow and identify the demand, arbiter, token, amount, expiration, and approval steps.
- Seller fulfillment: Follow the fulfillment, oracle arbitration, and collection flow for an escrow tied to delivered work.
- Oracle operation: Prepare manual or automated oracle decisions with attention to demand data and fulfillment attestations.

## Prompt Templates

### Understand buyer flow

```
Explain the Alkahest buyer flow for an ERC20 escrow on Base Sepolia. List the inputs I must confirm before any transaction.
```

### Prepare seller fulfillment

```
Help me prepare a seller fulfillment plan for an existing escrow UID. Include the fulfillment, arbitration, and collection checkpoints.
```

### Choose an arbiter

```
Compare trusted oracle, confirmation, and commit-reveal arbiters for my escrow. Recommend the safest option for off-chain deliverables.
```

### Design oracle automation

```
Design an auto-arbitration review workflow using the TypeScript SDK. Include manual safeguards before any on-chain decision is submitted.
```

## Limitations

- Requires the external alkahest CLI or TypeScript SDK to be installed separately.
- Does not verify user addresses, token amounts, RPC endpoints, or private key safety.
- Cannot guarantee that listed contract addresses are current for every chain.
- Blockchain transactions can be irreversible and can move real assets.

## Best Practices

- Use testnets and small amounts before mainnet operations.
- Prefer hardware wallets or scoped keys for any signing workflow.
- Verify contract addresses, token amounts, arbiters, and recipients before approving transactions.

## Anti Patterns

- Do not paste production private keys or mnemonics into prompts or shared terminals.
- Do not run auto-arbitration without a written decision policy and manual override.
- Do not approve token transfers until token addresses and spender contracts are verified.

## Security Audit

- Audited at: 2026-07-21T02:30:49.752\+00:00
- Summary: Most static findings are false positives caused by Markdown backticks, placeholder examples, and blockchain identifiers. The skill documents unsafe wallet-secret delivery through CLI arguments and environment variables, and it lacks safety checks for irreversible asset operations. Review is required before publication.
