About stx
stx is a skill for managing STX tokens and contracts on Stacks L2 through the Hiro API. It supports address-based queries as well as wallet-authorized transactions and Clarity contract operations.
Key features
- 01Query STX balances and transaction status
- 02Transfer STX with fee options
- 03Broadcast signed transactions
- 04Call smart contract functions
- 05Deploy Clarity contracts
Use cases
- 01Check a Stacks address balance
- 02Send STX with a memo
- 03Verify a transaction's status
- 04Deploy or call a Clarity contract

Details
From the project READMESTX Skill
Provides Stacks L2 STX token and contract operations using the Hiro API. Transfer and contract write operations require an unlocked wallet (use bun run wallet/wallet.ts unlock first). Balance and status queries work with just an address.
Usage
bun run stx/stx.ts <subcommand> [options]
Subcommands
get-balance
Get the STX balance for a Stacks address. Returns balance in both micro-STX and STX.
bun run stx/stx.ts get-balance [--address <addr>]
Options:
--address(optional) — Stacks address to check (uses active wallet if omitted)
Output:
{
"address": "SP2...",
"network": "mainnet",
"balance": {
"microStx": "1000000",
"stx": "1 STX"
},
"locked": {
"microStx": "0",
"stx": "0 STX"
},
"explorerUrl": "https://explorer.hiro.so/address/SP2...?chain=mainnet"
}
transfer
Transfer STX to a recipient. Requires an unlocked wallet.
1 STX = 1,000,000 micro-STX. Specify --amount in micro-STX.
bun run stx/stx.ts transfer --recipient <addr> --amount <microStx> [--memo <text>] [--fee low|medium|high|<microStx>]
Options:
--recipient(required) — Stacks address to send to (starts with SP or ST)--amount(required) — Amount in micro-STX (e.g., "2000000" for 2 STX)--memo(optional) — Memo message to include with the transfer--fee(optional) — Fee preset (low|medium|high) or micro-STX amount; auto-estimated if omitted
Output:
{
"success": true,
"txid": "abc123...",
"from": "SP2...",
"recipient": "SP3...",
"amount": "2 STX",
"amountMicroStx": "2000000",
"network": "mainnet",
"explorerUrl": "https://explorer.hiro.so/txid/abc123...?chain=mainnet"
}
broadcast-transaction
Broadcast a pre-signed Stacks transaction to the network.
bun run stx/stx.ts broadcast-transaction --signed-tx <hex>
Options:
--signed-tx(required) — The signed transaction as a hex string
Output:
{
"success": true,
"txid": "abc123...",
"network": "mainnet",
"explorerUrl": "https://explorer.hiro.so/txid/abc123...?chain=mainnet"
}
call-contract
Call a function on a Stacks smart contract. Signs and broadcasts the transaction. Requires an unlocked wallet.
bun run stx/stx.ts call-contract --contract-address <addr> --contract-name <name> --function-name <fn> [--args <json>] [--post-condition-mode allow|deny] [--post-conditions <json>] [--fee low|medium|high|<microStx>]
Options:
--contract-address(required) — Contract deployer's address (e.g., SP2...)--contract-name(required) — Contract name (e.g., my-token)--function-name(required) — Function to call--args(optional) — Function arguments as JSON array (default: "[]"). For typed args:[{"type":"uint","value":100}]--post-condition-mode(optional) —deny(default) blocks unexpected transfers;allowpermits any--post-conditions(optional) — Post conditions as JSON array. See SKILL.md for format.--fee(optional) — Fee preset or micro-STX; auto-estimated if omitted
Post condition format:
- STX:
{"type":"stx","principal":"SP...","conditionCode":"eq","amount":"1000000"} - FT:
{"type":"ft","principal":"SP...","asset":"SP...contract","assetName":"token-name","conditionCode":"eq","amount":"1000"} - NFT:
{"type":"nft","principal":"SP...","asset":"SP...contract","assetName":"nft-name","tokenId":"1"}
Output:
{
"success": true,
"txid": "abc123...",
"contract": "SP2....my-token",
"function": "transfer",
"network": "mainnet",
"explorerUrl": "https://explorer.hiro.so/txid/abc123...?chain=mainnet"
}
deploy-contract
Deploy a Clarity smart contract to the Stacks blockchain. Requires an unlocked wallet.
bun run stx/stx.ts deploy-contract --contract-name <name> --code-body <clarity-source> [--fee low|medium|high|<microStx>]
Options:
--contract-name(required) — Unique name for the contract (lowercase, hyphens allowed)--code-body(required) — The complete Clarity source code--fee(optional) — Fee preset or micro-STX; auto-estimated if omitted
Output:
{
"success": true,
"txid": "abc123...",
"contractId": "SP2....my-contract",
"network": "mainnet",
"explorerUrl": "https://explorer.hiro.so/txid/abc123...?chain=mainnet"
}
get-transaction-status
Check the status of a Stacks transaction by its txid.
bun run stx/stx.ts get-transaction-status --txid <txid>
Options:
--txid(required) — The transaction ID (64 character hex string)
Output:
{
"txid": "abc123...",
"status": "success",
"block_height": 150000,
"network": "mainnet",
"explorerUrl": "https://explorer.hiro.so/txid/abc123...?chain=mainnet"
}
Notes
- Balance queries use the public Hiro API (no authentication required unless you set HIRO_API_KEY)
- Transfer and contract operations require an unlocked wallet (use
bun run wallet/wallet.ts unlockfirst) - Fees are auto-estimated if
--feeis omitted; use presets (low|medium|high) or exact micro-STX amounts - Post condition mode
deny(default) prevents unintended asset movements; useallowonly when necessary
