analyzing-mempool
Monitor blockchain mempools for pending transactions, gas analysis, and MEV opportunities. Use when analyzing pending transactions, optimizing gas prices, or researching MEV. Trigger with phrases like "check mempool", "scan pending txs", "find MEV", "gas price analysis", or "pending swaps".

About this skill
Analyzing Mempool
Overview
Monitor Ethereum mempool for pending transactions, analyze gas prices, detect DEX swaps, and identify potential MEV opportunities. Useful for traders, MEV researchers, and protocol developers.
Prerequisites
Before using this skill, ensure you have:
- Python 3.8+ with requests library
- Ethereum RPC URL (default: public endpoint, or set ETH_RPC_URL)
- Internet access for RPC calls
Instructions
Step 1: Navigate to Scripts Directory
cd {baseDir}/scripts
Step 2: Choose Your Command
View Pending Transactions:
python mempool_analyzer.py pending
python mempool_analyzer.py pending --limit 100
Gas Price Analysis:
python mempool_analyzer.py gas
# Shows distribution, recommendations for slow/standard/fast/instant
Pending DEX Swaps:
python mempool_analyzer.py swaps
# Detects Uniswap, SushiSwap, 1inch pending swaps
MEV Opportunity Scan:
python mempool_analyzer.py mev
# Detects sandwich, arbitrage, liquidation opportunities
Mempool Summary:
python mempool_analyzer.py summary
# Quick overview of pending count, gas, opportunities
Watch Specific Contract:
python mempool_analyzer.py watch 0x7a250d...
# Monitor pending transactions to specific contract
Step 3: Interpret Results
Gas Recommendations:
- Slow (10th percentile): May take 10+ blocks
- Standard (50th percentile): 2-5 blocks
- Fast (75th percentile): 1-2 blocks
- Instant (90th percentile): Next block likely
MEV Warnings:
- MEV detection is for educational purposes
- Real MEV extraction requires specialized infrastructure
- Use this for research and understanding mempool dynamics
Output
- Pending transaction lists with gas prices and types
- Gas price distribution and recommendations
- Detected DEX swaps with amounts and DEX identification
- MEV opportunity analysis with estimated profits
- JSON output for programmatic use
Error Handling
See {baseDir}/references/errors.md for:
- RPC connection issues
- Mempool access limitations
- Transaction decoding errors
- Gas analysis fallbacks
Examples
Check gas before sending transaction:
python mempool_analyzer.py gas
# Use "Fast" for quick confirmation
Monitor for large pending swaps:
python mempool_analyzer.py swaps --limit 200
Research MEV opportunities:
python mempool_analyzer.py mev -v
Use different chain:
python mempool_analyzer.py --chain polygon gas
python mempool_analyzer.py --chain arbitrum pending
See {baseDir}/references/examples.md for more usage patterns.
Resources
- Ethereum JSON-RPC - RPC specification
- Flashbots - MEV research and infrastructure
- DEX Subgraphs - Pool and swap data
- Supports: Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base

This skill should be used when working on Godot Engine projects. It provides specialized knowledge of Godot's file formats (.gd, .tscn, .tres), architecture patterns (component-based, signal-driven, resource-based), common pitfalls, validation tools, code templates, and CLI workflows. The `godot` command is available for running the game, validating scripts, importing resources, and exporting builds. Use this skill for tasks involving Godot game development, debugging scene/resource files, implementing game systems, or creating new Godot components.

Generate and edit images using Google's Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) API. Use when the user asks to generate, create, edit, modify, change, alter, or update images. Also use when user references an existing image file and asks to modify it in any way (e.g., "modify this image", "change the background", "replace X with Y"). Supports both text-to-image generation and image-to-image editing with configurable resolution (1K default, 2K, or 4K for high resolution). DO NOT read the image file first - use this skill directly with the --input-image parameter.
