## What it does

The skill wraps the official `@opensea/cli` and the OpenSea REST API. Your agent can pull best listings for a collection, the best offer on a specific NFT, collection stats and trends, sale and mint events, drop listings, and search across collections, NFTs, tokens and accounts. Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon and more are supported.

You need an `OPENSEA_API_KEY`. Grab one instantly via `POST /api/v2/auth/keys` with no signup, or register at the developer portal for higher limits. Node.js 18 or above and `curl` are required, `jq` is recommended. Write and fulfillment flows signed through Privy also need `PRIVY_APP_ID`, `PRIVY_APP_SECRET` and `PRIVY_WALLET_ID`.

This skill is not for general NFT metadata reads outside a marketplace context, wallet balances, transaction history or live RPC calls. The authors point those to `alchemy-cli`, `alchemy-mcp` or `alchemy-api`. For plain cross-chain token swaps with no marketplace angle, use the `lifi` ecosystem skill instead. Worth checking before you install: if you only need metadata, Alchemy's API is broader and less rate-limited.

description: Query OpenSea marketplace data — listings, offers, sales / events, floor prices, collection stats, drops, traits — and execute Seaport trades via the official `@opensea/cli` and OpenSea REST API across Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, and more. Includes search across collections / NFTs / tokens / accounts. NOT for general NFT metadata reads (name, image, traits, ownership), token metadata, current wallet balances, transaction history, or live RPC reads — for those use `alchemy-cli` (live), `alchemy-mcp`, `alchemy-api` (app code), or `agentic-gateway` (no API key). For pure cross-chain token swaps (no marketplace context), prefer the `lifi` ecosystem skill. Requires `OPENSEA_API_KEY` (instant via API).
license: MIT
compatibility: API key required via `$OPENSEA_API_KEY` (instant — `curl -X POST https://api.opensea.io/api/v2/auth/keys` returns a key with no signup, or sign up at https://opensea.io/settings/developer for higher limits). Optional `$PRIVY_APP_ID` / `$PRIVY_APP_SECRET` / `$PRIVY_WALLET_ID` for write / fulfillment flows. Needs Node.js (≥ 18), `curl`, `jq` (recommended).

# OpenSea (NFT Marketplace Data + Seaport Trades)

OpenSea is the dominant NFT marketplace. This skill queries marketplace data — listings, offers, sales / events, floor prices, drops, traits — and executes Seaport trades via the official `@opensea/cli`. For NFT metadata (name, image, traits, ownership) outside the marketplace context, use Alchemy's NFT API instead. For pure cross-chain token swaps (no marketplace context), use the `lifi` ecosystem skill.
