Features

• Real Blockchain RPC: All commands make actual HTTP calls to Aether nodes
• Retry Logic: Exponential backoff with circuit breaker pattern
• Rate Limiting: Token bucket algorithm for API protection
• BIP39 Wallets: Mnemonic-based wallet generation
• ASCII Art Branding: Cosmic-themed CLI interface
• Interactive Mode: Menu-driven interface when run without args

Environment Variables

AETHER_RPC=http://127.0.0.1:8899  # RPC endpoint

SDK Integration

All commands use @jellylegsai/aether-sdk for blockchain operations:

const { AetherClient } = require('@jellylegsai/aether-sdk');
const client = new AetherClient({ rpcUrl: 'http://127.0.0.1:8899' });

// Real RPC calls
const slot = await client.getSlot();
const balance = await client.getBalance(address);
const epoch = await client.getEpochInfo();

System Requirements

For validator nodes:

• CPU: 8+ cores
• RAM: 32GB+ total
• Disk: 512GB+ SSD
• Network: 100Mbps+ connection
• Ports: 3030 (P2P), 8899 (RPC), 22 (SSH)
