gen-paylink-govilo — Claude Code skill: paid unlock links
This skill packages files, uploads them to Govilo storage and returns an unlock link paid in USDC. Useful when you sell digital goods.
npx skills add hau823823/gen-paylink-govilo --skill gen-paylink-govilo -a claude-codeWhat gen-paylink-govilo does
The skill turns a ZIP, a folder or a set of loose files into a paid link. Non-ZIP inputs get packaged automatically, then it requests a presigned URL, pushes the archive to R2 and creates an item that returns an unlock_url. Bot API calls follow three steps: presign, upload, create item.
You run it with uv from the skill's base directory. Keep a dedicated env file holding only GOVILO_API_KEY and optionally SELLER_ADDRESS; pointing --env-file at a project .env full of unrelated secrets is a bad idea. The seller address must be an EVM wallet on Base, and you can pass it with --address instead of the variable.
Limits are strict: a ZIP of at most 20 MB and no more than 20 files inside. Anything bigger gets rejected, so trim large builds before you start. The skill also asks for title, price and description up front rather than guessing them.
What it helps with
- build a paid link from a folder of files
- upload a ZIP to R2 with a presigned URL
- create a Bot API item and get its unlock_url
- pack loose files into one archive before selling
- check that the API key and wallet address are set before running
