Aztec Accounts Skill

Create, deploy, and manage Aztec accounts with proper key management.

Subskills

Schnorr Accounts - Creating and deploying Schnorr accounts
Account Recovery - Recovering accounts from saved credentials

Quick Start: Create and Deploy Account

import { Fr } from "@aztec/aztec.js/fields";
import { GrumpkinScalar } from "@aztec/foundation/curves/grumpkin";
import { AztecAddress } from "@aztec/stdlib/aztec-address";
import { AccountManager } from "@aztec/aztec.js/wallet";
import { SponsoredFeePaymentMethod } from "@aztec/aztec.js/fee";

// Generate new account keys
const secretKey = Fr.random();
const signingKey = GrumpkinScalar.random();
const salt = Fr.random();

// Create account manager
const account = await wallet.createSchnorrAccount(secretKey, salt, signingKey);
console.log(`Account address: ${account.address}`);

// Deploy account (required before use)
await (await account.getDeployMethod()).send({
    from: AztecAddress.ZERO,
    fee: { paymentMethod: sponsoredPaymentMethod },
    wait: { timeout: 120000 }
});

Account Types

Aztec supports several account types:

Type	Description	Use Case
Schnorr	ECDSA-compatible	Most common, recommended
ECDSA	Ethereum-style	Ethereum compatibility

Key Components

Secret Key (Fr) - Private key for encryption
Signing Key (GrumpkinScalar) - Private key for transaction signing
Salt (Fr) - Randomness for address derivation
Address - Derived deterministically from above

Important: Save Credentials

After creating an account, always save the credentials:

console.log(`SECRET=${secretKey.toString()}`);
console.log(`SIGNING_KEY=${signingKey.toString()}`);
console.log(`SALT=${salt.toString()}`);

Store these in your .env file for later recovery.
