sendTransactionWithOptions

Send Ethereum transactions with customizable parameters like gas limits, fees, and data payloads. Simulate transactions before broadcasting to verify outcomes.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
toYesThe Ethereum address to send to
valueYesThe amount to send in ether
dataNoOptional. The hex data to include in the transaction
gasLimitNoOptional. The gas limit for the transaction
maxFeePerGasNoOptional. The maximum fee per gas (in gwei)
maxPriorityFeePerGasNoOptional. The maximum priority fee per gas (in gwei)
nonceNoOptional. The nonce to use for the transaction
mockModeNoOptional. If true, just simulates the transaction without sending it. Default is false.
providerNoOptional. Either a network name or custom RPC URL. Use getAllNetworks to see available networks and their details, or getNetwork to get info about a specific network. You can use any network name returned by these tools as a provider value.
chainIdNoOptional. The chain ID to use. If provided with a named network and they don't match, the RPC's chain ID will be used.

Implementation Reference

  • The complete MCP tool registration for 'sendTransactionWithOptions', including Zod input schema and the handler function that implements mock transaction simulation using ethersService.getWallet and ethers.parseEther/etc. Actual sending is disabled outside mockMode.
