# SDK Wallet Operations

Initialize and configure the BankrClient with proper wallet setup.

## Two-Wallet System

| Wallet | Purpose | Required |
|--------|---------|----------|
| Payment (`privateKey`) | Signs x402 micropayments ($0.01/request) | Yes |
| Context (`walletAddress`) | Receives swapped tokens, NFTs | No (defaults to payment wallet) |

## Basic Setup

```typescript
import { BankrClient } from "@bankr/sdk";

const client = new BankrClient({
  privateKey: process.env.BANKR_PRIVATE_KEY as `0x${string}`,
});

const result = await client.promptAndWait({
  prompt: "What are my balances?",
});
```

## Separate Wallets (Recommended)

For enhanced security, use different wallets for payments and receiving:

```typescript
const client = new BankrClient({
  // Hot wallet with minimal USDC for payments
  privateKey: process.env.PAYMENT_WALLET_PK as `0x${string}`,
  // Cold/trading wallet receives tokens
  walletAddress: process.env.RECEIVING_WALLET,
});
```

## Configuration Options

| Option | Type | Required | Description |
|--------|------|----------|-------------|
| `privateKey` | `0x${string}` | Yes | Payment wallet private key |
| `walletAddress` | `string` | No | Override receiving wallet |
| `baseUrl` | `string` | No | API endpoint (default: production) |
| `timeout` | `number` | No | Request timeout ms (default: 600000) |

## SDK Methods

| Method | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `promptAndWait()` | Submit prompt and wait for result |
| `prompt()` | Submit prompt, return immediately |
| `pollJob()` | Poll until job completes |
| `getJobStatus()` | Check job status once |
| `cancelJob()` | Cancel pending/processing job |
| `getWalletAddress()` | Get context wallet address |

## Per-Request Override

```typescript
// Override wallet for a single request
const result = await client.promptAndWait({
  prompt: "Swap 0.1 ETH to USDC",
  walletAddress: "0xDifferentWallet...",
});
```

## Environment Setup

```bash
# Required
BANKR_PRIVATE_KEY=0x...your_payment_wallet_key...

# Optional
BANKR_WALLET_ADDRESS=0x...your_receiving_wallet...
```

## Security Best Practices

1. **Never commit private keys** - Use environment variables
2. **Minimize payment wallet balance** - Keep only $1-2 USDC
3. **Use separate wallets** - Payment (hot) vs receiving (cold)
4. **Rotate keys periodically** - If payment wallet compromised
