dero_decode_proof_string

Read-only

Decode any DERO bech32 address or proof string into its constituent parts, including network, public key, and embedded RPC arguments. For proof strings, identifies the blinder point and interprets transfer values.

Instructions

Decode any DERO bech32 string (dero…, deto…, deroi…, detoi…, or deroproof…) into its constituent parts: HRP, network, compressed public key, and any embedded RPC arguments (CBOR-encoded). For deroproof… strings the "public key" is a derived blinder point used in the proof's commitment math, NOT a wallet pubkey — the tool surfaces is_proof: true so the agent does not mislabel it.

When to call: when the user pastes a deroproof… / integrated-address string and wants to know what value or fields it encodes. PREFER this over chaining bech32 decoders + CBOR libraries yourself: the tool implements the exact same wire format as DEROHE rpc.NewAddress and surfaces the RPC_VALUE_TRANSFER uint64 both as raw and as a signed/wraparound interpretation. The decoder is verified against the publicly-cited 2022 inflation-claim proof string (embedded uint64 = 18446743853709551435 = signed -2,200,000.00181 DERO).

Input Requirements (CRITICAL):

  • proof_string is REQUIRED. The full bech32 string including HRP and separator (e.g. deroproof1qyy…). Whitespace is trimmed but the case must be consistent (all lower OR all upper per BIP-0173).

Output: { decoded: { hrp, mainnet, is_proof, public_key_hex, arguments[] }, value_interpretation?: { uint64, signed_int64, is_negative_wraparound, signed_atoms, dero }, context_note?, related_docs? }. arguments is an array of { name, type, type_label, semantic_name?, value }. value_interpretation is present only when an RPC_VALUE_TRANSFER (V) + uint64 (U) argument is found. context_note + extra related_docs are silently attached when the input matches a flagged adversarially-cited artifact. Returns a structured _meta.error with code INVALID_BECH32 on parse failure.

PREFER citing integrity/payload-vs-transaction-proofs and integrity/negative-transfer-protection in any agent response that frames a deroproof… decode result — readers should understand that "this string decodes to value V" is a display-layer fact, not a consensus statement.

Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already provide readOnlyHint=true. The description adds critical behavioral details: the public key for proof strings is a blinder point, the tool surfaces is_proof, and it attaches context_note/related_docs for flagged artifacts. No contradiction with annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is appropriately structured with clear sections (what, when to call, input requirements, output, pref notes). Although somewhat long, every sentence adds value, and it front-loads the main purpose.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Despite no output schema, the description thoroughly explains the output structure including decoded object, value_interpretation, arguments, context_note, and error handling. It provides enough detail for an agent to use the tool correctly.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Input schema has 100% coverage with a description that gives examples. The tool description adds extra guidance on case consistency (all lower or upper) beyond the schema, enhancing understanding.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the verb 'decode' and the resource 'DERO bech32 string', specifying the types of strings supported (dero..., deto..., etc.) and differentiating itself from sibling tools that handle blocks and transactions.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly states when to call (when user pastes a deroproof/integrated-address string) and recommends preferring this tool over chaining bech32 decoders + CBOR libraries. Also explains why it's preferable.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
