Grimoire Pendle Skill

Use this skill to inspect Pendle metadata and preflight Pendle routing configuration before running spells.

Preferred invocations:

• grimoire venue pendle ...
• npx -y @grimoirelabs/cli venue pendle ... (no-install)
• bun run packages/cli/src/index.ts venue pendle ... (repo-local)
• grimoire-pendle ... (direct binary from @grimoirelabs/venues)

Recommended preflight:

• grimoire venue doctor --adapter pendle --chain 1 --rpc-url <rpc> --json

Commands

• grimoire venue pendle info [--base-url <url>] [--format <auto|json|table>]
• grimoire venue pendle chains [--base-url <url>] [--format <auto|json|table>]
• grimoire venue pendle supported-aggregators --chain <id> [--base-url <url>] [--format <auto|json|table>]
• grimoire venue pendle markets [--chain <id>] [--active <true|false>] [--base-url <url>] [--format <auto|json|table>]
• grimoire venue pendle assets [--chain <id>] [--type <PT|YT|LP|SY>] [--base-url <url>] [--format <auto|json|table>]
• grimoire venue pendle market-tokens --chain <id> --market <address> [--base-url <url>] [--format <auto|json|table>]

Examples

grimoire venue pendle info --format table
grimoire venue pendle chains
grimoire venue pendle supported-aggregators --chain 1 --format json
grimoire venue pendle markets --chain 1 --active true --format table
grimoire venue pendle assets --chain 8453 --type PT --format table
grimoire venue pendle market-tokens --chain 8453 --market 0x... --format json

Authoring Workflow

Pendle requires a market-first approach. Do NOT write a Pendle spell without first querying available markets.

1. Query markets for the target chain and underlying:

   grimoire venue pendle markets --chain 1 --active true --format json
   

2. Pick a market — note its address and expiry. Each market has specific PT/YT/SY tokens.

3. Query market tokens to get the exact token addresses:

   grimoire venue pendle market-tokens --chain 1 --market 0x... --format json
   

4. Write the spell using token addresses from step 3:

   pendle.add_liquidity(0x<SY_address>, params.amount) with (max_slippage=100)
   

Common mistakes

• pendle.deposit(USDC, ...) — Pendle has no deposit action. Use add_liquidity, mint_py, mint_sy, or swap.
• Using token symbols without addresses — PT/YT/SY tokens are auto-resolved via the Pendle API, but standard tokens like USDC need raw amounts in the token's smallest unit.
• Missing enable_aggregator — Some routes require an aggregator. If no route is found, retry with enable_aggregator=true in the with() clause.

Supported actions

Metric Surface (Spell Comparisons)

Pendle exposes quote_out for route output comparisons:

pendle_out = metric("quote_out", pendle, USDC, "asset_out=DAI,amount=1000000,slippage_bps=1000")

Selector fields:

• required: asset_out
• optional: amount (defaults to 1 unit of input asset), slippage_bps, enable_aggregator

Spell Constraints

When writing Pendle actions in .spell files, use with clauses:

pendle.swap(PT_TOKEN, SY_TOKEN, params.amount) with (
  max_slippage=100,
  require_quote=true,
)

Pendle swap only supports mode: exact_in. exact_out is not supported.

When the Pendle API returns multiple routes, the adapter selects the first (best) route and emits a warning via onWarning. This is logged in non-JSON CLI runs.

PT/YT/SY Token Resolution

Pendle PT, YT, and SY tokens (e.g. PT_FXSAVE, YT_EETH, SY_WSTETH) are automatically resolved via the Pendle API at build time. You can use these symbols directly in spells without providing explicit addresses:

pendle.swap(PT_FXSAVE, USDC, params.amount) with (max_slippage=100)

The adapter converts underscore-delimited names (e.g. PT_FXSAVE) to the Pendle API format and picks the best match. If multiple expiries exist, the first (nearest) is selected.

To target a specific expiry or disambiguate, use the full 0x address instead:

pendle.swap(0xb1e926428ebec4421cce1ec6d9ff65d27f4b4bb6, USDC, params.amount)

Use grimoire venue pendle assets --chain <id> --type PT to discover available tokens and addresses.

Notes

• Default API base URL is https://api-v2.pendle.finance/core.
• Override base URL with --base-url or PENDLE_API_BASE_URL.
• Use --format json for automation and nested payloads.
• Pendle swap currently supports mode: exact_in only.
• Aggregators are disabled by default in adapter actions unless explicitly enabled.
• For Pendle token outputs (assetOut, outputs), use bare address literals (0x...) and not quoted strings (\"0x...\").
• Quoted address-like token values trigger validator code QUOTED_ADDRESS_LITERAL.
• max_slippage is validated as integer bps in [0, 10000] and converted to decimal (bps / 10000) before API requests.
