SDKs & Tools

Xian ships tooling for three distinct jobs:

Core SDKs And Apps

Tool	Main use
xian-cli	operator CLI plus JSON-first wallet, query, and transaction automation
xian-js	TypeScript client, provider contract, relayer clients, and browser integration
xian-wallet-browser	browser wallet extension and injected provider
xian-wallet-mobile	mobile wallet application
xian-py	Python client, watchers, indexed reads, and relayer clients
xian-zk	proving toolkit, shielded wallet model, bundle generation, local prover service
xian-intentkit	agent-facing automation stack for Xian-native workflows
xian-dex-automation	deterministic DEX event automation service for rule-based trades

Tool	Main use
Playgrounds	browser dapp example plus the dedicated contract playground
Contracting Hub	curated contract catalog, inspection, ratings, and deployment UI
Linter	static validation for contract source before deployment
MCP Server	local AI-assistant bridge for wallets, reads, submissions, and DEX flows

TypeScript / browser tooling:

bash

npm install @xian-tech/client @xian-tech/provider

Python application SDK:

bash

uv add xian-tech-py

CLI automation and operator tooling:

bash

uv tool install xian-tech-cli

Local contract runtime and testing:

bash

uv add xian-tech-contracting

Shielded proving toolkit:

bash

uv add xian-tech-zk

use xian-tech-contracting when you are writing or testing contracts
use xian-cli when you want shell-first automation or operator workflows
use xian-py or xian-js when you are building apps, services, wallets, or library-level integrations
use xian-zk when you are working with shielded-note or shielded-command flows
use xian-dex-automation when a DEX rule should execute predictably without an AI model deciding the action
use the hub, playground, or MCP server when you want a higher-level developer surface instead of starting from raw SDK calls

The Browser IDE provides contract editing, compiler checks, simulation, and wallet-based deployment.
