optimizing-gas-fees

Optimize blockchain gas costs by analyzing prices, patterns, and timing. Use when checking gas prices, estimating costs, or finding optimal windows. Trigger with phrases like "gas prices", "optimize gas", "transaction cost", "when to transact".

Skill Content

Optimizing Gas Fees

Overview

Gas fee optimization skill that:

Fetches real-time gas prices from multiple sources
Estimates transaction costs in ETH and USD
Analyzes historical patterns to find optimal timing
Predicts future gas prices
Compares gas across multiple chains

Prerequisites

Python 3.8+ with requests library
Network access to RPC endpoints
Optional: ETHERSCAN_API_KEY for higher rate limits
Optional: Custom RPC URLs via environment variables

Instructions

Check current gas prices (optionally for a specific chain):

cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py current
cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py current --chain polygon

Estimate transaction cost for known operations or custom gas limits (available operations: eth_transfer, erc20_transfer, erc20_approve, uniswap_v2_swap, uniswap_v3_swap, sushiswap_swap, curve_swap, nft_mint, nft_transfer, opensea_listing, aave_deposit, aave_withdraw, compound_supply, compound_borrow, bridge_deposit):
```
cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py estimate --operation uniswap_v2_swap --all-tiers
cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py estimate --gas-limit 150000 --tier fast  # 150000 = configured value
```

Find the optimal transaction window with lowest expected gas:

cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py optimal

View gas patterns (hourly or daily):

cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py patterns
cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py patterns --daily

Predict future gas prices for a given hour:

cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py predict --time 14

Compare gas prices across multiple chains:

cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py compare

View base fee history for recent blocks:

cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts && python3 gas_optimizer.py history --blocks 50

Output

Current: Base fee, priority fee, and tier prices (slow/standard/fast/instant)
Estimate: Gas cost in native token and USD for each tier
Patterns: Historical hourly/daily patterns with low-gas markers
Optimal: Recommended transaction window with expected savings
Predict: Gas forecast for specific time with confidence
Compare: Side-by-side gas prices across chains

Supported Chains

Chain	Native Token	Block Time
Ethereum	ETH	~12 sec
Polygon	MATIC	~2 sec
Arbitrum	ETH	~0.25 sec
Optimism	ETH	~2 sec
Base	ETH	~2 sec

Price Tiers

Tier	Percentile	Confirmation Time
Slow	10th	10+ blocks (~2+ min)
Standard	50th	3-5 blocks (~1 min)
Fast	75th	1-2 blocks (~30 sec)
Instant	90th	Next block (~12 sec)

cache-components

Expert guidance for Next.js Cache Components and Partial Prerendering (PPR). **PROACTIVE ACTIVATION**: Use this skill automatically when working in Next.js projects that have `cacheComponents: true` in their next.config.ts/next.config.js. When this config is detected, proactively apply Cache Components patterns and best practices to all React Server Component implementations. **DETECTION**: At the start of a session in a Next.js project, check for `cacheComponents: true` in next.config. If enabled, this skill's patterns should guide all component authoring, data fetching, and caching decisions. **USE CASES**: Implementing 'use cache' directive, configuring cache lifetimes with cacheLife(), tagging cached data with cacheTag(), invalidating caches with updateTag()/revalidateTag(), optimizing static vs dynamic content boundaries, debugging cache issues, and reviewing Cache Component implementations.
