cowl-protocol/cli

This is a command line tool for private trading on a blockchain network called Robinhood Chain, built by Cowl Protocol. It lets you move cryptocurrency into a hidden pool where your balances and transactions stay off the public ledger. From your terminal you can shield funds, send them privately to other users, trade between token pairs without revealing your activity, and pull funds back out when needed. The core idea is that everything private happens on your own computer. The tool keeps an encrypted wallet on your machine, generates one-time receiving addresses that cannot be linked back to you, and creates zero-knowledge proofs locally before anything touches the network. The blockchain only sees commitments and proofs it can verify but cannot read. A relayer service covers transaction fees so your wallet address never appears as the gas payer, which would otherwise connect you to your activity. Getting started involves installing the tool through Node.js, running an init command to create a wallet and pick a network, then funding it from a testnet faucet. From there you shield funds into the private pool, scan for notes paid to you, trade against listed pairs, and unshield when you want funds back on the public side. The tool also supports running your own relayer to earn fees, staking the protocol token, and handing out view keys that let an auditor see specific information without giving them full access. The wallet is non-custodial, stored under your home directory with strict file permissions, and sealed with a passphrase using standard encryption. You can back it up and restore it, import an existing seed phrase or private key, and export keys when needed. The command set covers wallet management, shielded pool operations, trading, portfolio views, relayer configuration, and network diagnostics. The full README is longer than what was shown.
