Govilo To Go
Turn any file into a paid unlock link — one command to package, upload, and collect crypto payments. The last mile of automation: from creation to monetization.
Before Running
Always ask the user for these values before executing the CLI — never guess or use placeholders:
- title — What is the product name?
- price — How much to charge (in USDC)?
- description — Short description of the product (optional, but always ask)
CLI Command
Requires uv. See references/setup-guide.md for install instructions.
Run from this skill's base directory. Use a dedicated env file containing only GOVILO_API_KEY (and optionally SELLER_ADDRESS). Never point --env-file at a project .env that contains unrelated secrets.
cd <skill_base_directory>
uv run --env-file <path_to>/.env.govilo create-link \
--input <path> \
--title "Product Name" \
--price "5.00" \
--address "0x..." \
--description "optional"
If no .env.govilo exists, create one before running:
GOVILO_API_KEY=sk_live_xxx
SELLER_ADDRESS=0x...
--input accepts ZIP file, folder, or individual files (repeatable). Non-ZIP inputs are auto-packaged.
All output is JSON {"ok": true/false, ...} with exit code 1 on failure.
