Usage

The CLI supports both direct commands and an interactive menu system.

Commands​

The CLI uses a hierarchical structure: scs <category> <action> [options].

Stablecoin Management​

scs stablecoin create --name "MyToken" --symbol "MTK" --decimals 6
scs stablecoin mint --amount 100 --target 0.0.XXXX --token 0.0.YYYY

Global Options​

FlagShortcutDescription
--help-hShow help for any command
--version-vDisplay CLI version
--network-nOverride configured network

Interactive Menu​

Running npm start or the wizard launches the interactive menu with these sections:

1. Create a New Stablecoin​

The wizard walks through token details (name, symbol, decimals), supply management (initial/max supply), key management (admin, KYC, freeze, wipe, supply, fee), and advanced features (proof of reserve, KYC gating).

2. Manage Imported Tokens​

Manage a stablecoin created elsewhere. You need the Token ID and private keys for the roles you want to exercise.

3. Operate with Stablecoin​

  • Treasury: Cash in (mint), burn, wipe, rescue
  • Access Control: Grant/revoke KYC, freeze/unfreeze, update roles
  • Danger Zone: Pause token, delete token (irreversible)

4. Configuration​

Modify mirrors, RPCs, factories, and backend settings without editing files manually.

Advanced Scenarios​

Disaster Recovery​

If you lose your hsca-config.yaml but have your private key and token ID:

  1. Re-install the CLI and run the wizard with your private key.
  2. Go to "Manage Imported Tokens" and enter the Token ID.
  3. The CLI queries Hedera and restores control.

Key Rotation​

To move from a single developer key to multi-sig governance:

  1. Create the multi-sig account on Hedera.
  2. Go to "Operate with Stablecoin" > "Management" > "Update Roles".
  3. Select the Admin role and input the multi-sig account ID.
