# What is Skopos

> A non-custodial, cross-chain crypto copilot you talk to in plain English.

Skopos is a non-custodial, cross-chain crypto copilot — live at [tryskopos.xyz](https://www.tryskopos.xyz), and embeddable anywhere else you work via one API, an Agent Skill, or an MCP server.

Type what you want in plain English — prices, smart-money intel, market reads, alerts, token safety, prediction markets, or a swap/bridge/payment — and Skopos either pulls live data or hands your wallet a transaction to sign. It never holds your funds or your keys.

```
> swap 0.1 eth to usdc on base
> what's launching on robinhood chain
> who's buying $pepe
> pay 10 usdc to 0x... for invoice-42 on base
```

## The core idea

Every execution path in Skopos — swaps, bridges, payments, rebalances — returns **unsigned calldata**. Your own connected wallet signs it. There is no server-side signing, no custodial wallet, no "trust us with your keys." If Skopos disappeared tomorrow, nothing you own would be stuck anywhere.

Everything that isn't execution — prices, risk scans, smart-money reads, market intelligence — is a live data pull. The model is fenced off from inventing numbers: if a live source is unavailable, Skopos says so instead of guessing.

## How to use it

Open the [app](https://www.tryskopos.xyz/app), connect a wallet, and type into the chat. No forms, no chain pickers, no dropdown menus — just describe the move.

## Three ways to reach it

Skopos isn't only a web app:

* **The app** — [tryskopos.xyz/app](https://www.tryskopos.xyz/app), the full chat UI with cards, charts, and wallet connect.
* **The API** — one HTTP endpoint (`POST /api/chat`) with `format:"text"` for bots and headless clients. This is what powers Skopos's own iMessage integration today.
* **Agent Skill / MCP** — drop a `SKILL.md` into Claude, Cursor, or any Agent Skills–compatible agent, or run `npx -y skopos-mcp` to get Skopos as an MCP server in Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client.

See [Build on Skopos](/build/api-overview) for all three.
