How can an AI agent read Veri contracts itself?
Agent Skills
veri.how publishes two read-only Agent Skills, veri-token and veri-smartmetal, that teach an agent to query VERI and Veri SmartMetal contracts with curl over public RPCs.
Each skill is instructions only: curl calls with the calldata written out, plus public IPFS gateways. The skills only read the chain. They never sign or send a transaction.
Install#
Install both skills with the skills CLI:
npx skills add https://veri.howIt asks which agents to install them for. Add -g to install them for your user instead of the current project. For claude.ai, download a skill’s zip below and upload it as a custom skill.
Agents can also find both skills in /.well-known/agent-skills/index.json, which lists each zip with its sha256 digest.
veri-token#

It covers:
- Total supply
- Balance of an address
- Decimals and owner

It covers:
- Find the series
- Read the metadata
- Check activation
- Who holds it
