Quick Start

npx evmscope

CLI Mode

Use evmscope directly from your terminal — no AI client needed:

npx evmscope price ETH
npx evmscope compare-gas
npx evmscope tvl Aave
npx evmscope swap ETH USDC 1.0
npx evmscope balance 0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045

Run npx evmscope --help to see all commands. Add --json for raw JSON output.
