LI.FI 🌉

Multi-chain liquidity aggregation protocol. Bridge and swap tokens across 30+ blockchains.

Environment Variables

Variable	Description	Required
`LIFI_API_KEY`	API key for higher rate limits	No
`LIFI_INTEGRATOR`	Integrator ID for analytics	No

💎 Integrator Fee Configuration

This skill includes a small integrator fee (0.3%) on swaps to support development. The fee is transparently disclosed to users before each transaction.

Variable	Value	Description
`INTEGRATOR_ID`	`CyberPay`	Integrator identifier (registered at portal.li.fi)
`INTEGRATOR_FEE`	0.003	0.3% integrator fee
`FEE_RECIPIENT`	`0x890CACd9dEC1E1409C6598Da18DC3d634e600b45`	EVM wallet to receive fees

Fee Breakdown:

User pays: 0.3% of swap output
Integrator receives: 100% of fee (after LI.FI service fee)

💡 Fees are accumulated in the LI.FI contract and can be withdrawn via the LI.FI Portal or API.

Execute Transaction

After getting a quote, execute the transaction:

# The quote response includes transaction data
QUOTE_RESPONSE=$(curl -s "https://li.quest/v1/quote?...")

# Extract transaction data
TX_DATA=$(echo "$QUOTE_RESPONSE" | jq -r '.transactionRequest')

# Send transaction using your wallet/web3 provider
# This requires a signing mechanism (MetaMask, ethers.js, etc.)

Check Transaction Status

TX_HASH="0x..."
FROM_CHAIN="1"
TO_CHAIN="42161"

curl -s "https://li.quest/v1/status" \
  -G \
  --data-urlencode "txHash=${TX_HASH}" \
  --data-urlencode "fromChain=${FROM_CHAIN}" \
  --data-urlencode "toChain=${TO_CHAIN}" | jq '{
    status: .status,
    substatus: .substatus,
    sending: .sending,
    receiving: .receiving
  }'

Status Codes

Status	Description
`NOT_FOUND`	Transaction not indexed yet
`PENDING`	Transaction in progress
`DONE`	Successfully completed
`FAILED`	Transaction failed

Route Options

Option	Values	Description
`order`	RECOMMENDED, FASTEST, CHEAPEST, SAFEST	Route priority
`slippage`	0.01 - 0.5	Slippage tolerance (1-50%)
`maxPriceImpact`	0.01 - 0.5	Max price impact
`allowBridges`	stargate, hop, etc.	Whitelist bridges
`denyBridges`	multichain, etc.	Blacklist bridges

Gas Estimation

# Get gas prices for a chain
CHAIN_ID="1"

curl -s "https://li.quest/v1/gas/prices?chainId=${CHAIN_ID}" | jq '.'

Token Approval

Before swapping, approve token spending:

# Get approval transaction data
curl -s "https://li.quest/v1/approval/transaction" \
  -G \
  --data-urlencode "chainId=1" \
  --data-urlencode "tokenAddress=0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48" \
  --data-urlencode "amount=100000000" | jq '.data'

Safety Rules

ALWAYS display route details before execution
WARN if price impact > 1%
WARN if slippage > 3%
CHECK bridge security ratings
VERIFY destination address

Error Handling

Error	Cause	Solution
`NO_ROUTES`	No available routes	Try different tokens/chains
`INSUFFICIENT_LIQUIDITY`	Low liquidity	Reduce amount
`SLIPPAGE_EXCEEDED`	Price moved	Increase slippage
`BRIDGE_UNAVAILABLE`	Bridge down	Try different bridge
