Abstract Onboard
by @masoncags-tech
Deploy smart contracts and bridge assets to Abstract (ZK Stack L2). Use when an agent needs to deploy contracts on Abstract, bridge ETH/tokens to Abstract, trade/swap tokens, place predictions on Myriad Markets, check balances, transfer assets, or interact with Abstract mainnet. Covers zksolc compilation, Hardhat deployment, Relay bridging, DEX trading (Kona, Aborean), Myriad prediction markets, and key contract addresses.

Quick Start
Create Abstract Global Wallet (AGW)
AGW is a smart contract wallet that earns XP on Abstract. Essential for agents!β οΈ CRITICAL: Understand the 3 layers first:
Private Key β EOA (signer) β AGW (smart contract wallet)
The correct funding flow:
1. Fund EOA with small ETH (for gas)
2. Create/deploy AGW (EOA pays gas for first tx)
3. Fund AGW with your main balance
4. Everything runs through AGW from now on
export WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=0x...
node scripts/create-agw.js
Your EOA becomes the signer, AGW is a separate smart contract address.
β οΈ Version Warning: Different agw-client versions may compute different AGW addresses! Always pin your version. See references/agw.md for details.

DEX Trading (Kona & Aborean)
Abstract has multiple DEXs. Use the protocol-specific scripts for best results:

export WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=0x...
node scripts/swap-kona.jsAborean (Velodrome-style) - when router is available
node scripts/swap-aborean.jsGeneric Uniswap V2

β οΈ CRITICAL: Contract Deployment
Abstract is a zkSync-based chain. Standard EVM deployment methods DON'T WORK.
What WORKS β
// Use zksync-ethers (NOT viem, NOT standard ethers)
const { ContractFactory } = require("zksync-ethers");
const factory = new ContractFactory(abi, bytecode, wallet);
const contract = await factory.deploy(args);// ALWAYS verify bytecode after deploy
const code = await provider.getCode(address);
if (code === '0x') throw new Error("Deploy failed!");
What DOESN'T WORK β
// DON'T use viem's deployContract
await walletClient.deployContract({...}); // Returns success but NO BYTECODE// DON'T use standard ethers ContractFactory
// DON'T trust transaction success alone
Deployment Checklist
zksync-ethers ContractFactoryeth_getCode != 0x after deployCommon Issues
1. Gas estimation fails β Use Hardhat, not foundry-zksync 2. Compiler errors β Use Solidity 0.8.x with zksolc 3. TX stuck β Check gas price, verify on abscan.org 4. Deploy succeeds but no bytecode β Use zksync-ethers, not viem 5. Tokens sent to empty address β Always verify bytecode first!
See references/troubleshooting.md for detailed solutions.
Dependencies
# Core dependencies
npm install ethers zksync-ethers viemFor contract deployment
npm install @matterlabs/hardhat-zksyncFor AGW (Abstract Global Wallet) - PIN THE VERSION!
Different versions compute different AGW addresses
npm install @abstract-foundation/agw-client@1.10.0
β οΈ agw-client version warning: Newer versions may use different factory contracts, computing different AGW addresses for the same EOA. If you change versions, verify your AGW address hasn't changed before sending funds!
