  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by moonpay on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Moonpay Swap Tokens AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/moonpay/skills/tree/main/skills/moonpay-swap-tokens
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/moonpay/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/skills/moonpay-swap-tokens .claude/skills/moonpay-swap-tokens
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Moonpay Swap Tokens in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Moonpay Swap Tokens on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Moonpay Swap Tokens is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Swap or bridge tokens

Goal

Swap tokens on the same chain, or bridge tokens across chains. Two commands:

  • mp token swap — same chain, different tokens
  • mp token bridge — cross chain

Both build via swaps.xyz, sign locally, broadcast, and register for tracking.

Commands

Swap (same chain)

bash
mp token swap \
  --wallet <wallet-name> \
  --chain <chain> \
  --from-token <token-address> \
  --from-amount <amount> \
  --to-token <token-address>

Supports exact-out: use --to-amount instead of --from-amount.

Bridge (cross chain)

bash
mp token bridge \
  --from-wallet <wallet-name> \
  --from-chain <chain> \
  --from-token <token-address> \
  --from-amount <amount> \
  --to-chain <chain> \
  --to-token <token-address> \
  --to-wallet <wallet-name>  # optional, defaults to from-wallet

Supports exact-out: use --to-amount instead of --from-amount.

Examples

Same-chain swap (SOL → USDC on Solana)

bash
mp token swap \
  --wallet main --chain solana \
  --from-token So11111111111111111111111111111111111111111 \
  --from-amount 0.1 \
  --to-token EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v

Cross-chain bridge (ETH → USDC.e on Polygon)

bash
mp token bridge \
  --from-wallet funded --from-chain ethereum \
  --from-token 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 \
  --from-amount 0.003 \
  --to-chain polygon \
  --to-token 0x2791Bca1f2de4661ED88A30C99A7a9449Aa84174

ERC20 swap (auto-approves if needed)

bash
mp token swap \
  --wallet funded --chain polygon \
  --from-token 0x2791Bca1f2de4661ED88A30C99A7a9449Aa84174 \
  --from-amount 5 \
  --to-token 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Supported chains

solana, ethereum, base, polygon, arbitrum, optimism, bnb, avalanche, bitcoin (bridges only)

How it works

  1. Resolves wallet name → address
  2. Builds unsigned transaction via swaps.xyz (handles decimal conversion)
  3. If ERC20 token needs approval, sends an approve transaction first, then re-builds
  4. Signs locally — private key never leaves the machine
  5. Broadcasts to the network
  6. Registers for tracking

token swap calls token bridge under the hood with from-chain = to-chain.

Tips

  • If the user provides token names/symbols, resolve to addresses with mp token search --query "USDC" --chain solana
  • Check balances first with mp token balance list --wallet <address> --chain <chain>
  • Native tokens use 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 (EVM) or So11111111111111111111111111111111111111111 (Solana)

Frequently asked questions

What does the Moonpay Swap Tokens AI skill do?

Swap tokens on the same chain or bridge tokens across chains. Use when the user wants to swap, bridge, or move tokens.

Why use Moonpay Swap Tokens on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Moonpay Swap Tokens is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Moonpay Swap Tokens in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/moonpay/skills/tree/main/skills/moonpay-swap-tokens. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Moonpay Swap Tokens?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Moonpay Swap Tokens?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Moonpay Swap Tokens with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Moonpay Swap Tokens AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by moonpay under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
