What it does

Hd Wallets is an agent skill from Nethereum/Nethereum. Derive multiple Ethereum accounts from a mnemonic seed phrase using Nethereum HD wallets. Use this skill whenever the user asks about mnemonic phrases, seed phrases, BIP-39, BIP-32, BIP-44, HD wallets, deriving accounts from a seed, wallet recovery, 12-word or 24-word phrases, derivation paths, or generating multiple addresses from one key in C/.NET.

Its SKILL.md is about 660 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs. It works with .NET, C# and Ethereum. The repository describes itself as: Ethereum .Net cross platform integration library. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 229f278. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- dotnet
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
- docs.nethereum.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Hd Wallets loads about 664 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 80 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~91
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~664

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

HD Wallets with Nethereum

Two implementations available:

Full HD Wallet (NBitcoin-based)

NuGet: Nethereum.HDWallet

bash

dotnet add package Nethereum.HDWallet

Generate New Wallet

csharp

using Nethereum.HdWallet;
using NBitcoin;

var wallet = new Wallet(Wordlist.English, WordCount.Twelve);
var mnemonic = string.Join(" ", wallet.Words);

Restore from Mnemonic

csharp

var wallet = new Wallet("rapid squeeze excess salute ...", seedPassword: null);
var account = wallet.GetAccount(0, chainId: 1);
var web3 = new Web3(account, "https://your-rpc-url");

Derivation Paths

csharp

// Default: m/44'/60'/0'/0/x (MetaMask, TREZOR, MEW)
var wallet = new Wallet(words, null, Wallet.DEFAULT_PATH);

// Ledger/Electrum: m/44'/60'/0'/x
var wallet = new Wallet(words, null, Wallet.ELECTRUM_LEDGER_PATH);

Key Methods

csharp

var addresses = wallet.GetAddresses(10);     // First 10 addresses
var privateKey = wallet.GetPrivateKey(0);     // Private key bytes
var ethKey = wallet.GetEthereumKey(0);        // EthECKey for signing
var account = wallet.GetAccount(0, chainId: 1); // Account for Web3

Watch-Only (Public Wallet)

csharp

var xPub = wallet.GetMasterExtPubKey();
var publicWallet = new PublicWallet(xPub);
var addresses = publicWallet.GetAddresses(10);

Light HD Wallet (Zero Dependencies)

Included in Nethereum.Accounts — no extra package needed. Uses only System.Security.Cryptography. Modern .NET only (net6.0+).

csharp

using Nethereum.Accounts.Bip32;

// Generate mnemonic
var mnemonic = Bip39.GenerateMnemonic(12);

// Create wallet
var wallet = new MinimalHDWallet(mnemonic);

// Derive keys (m/44'/60'/0'/0/{index})
var key = wallet.GetEthereumKey(0);
var address = wallet.GetEthereumAddress(0);

// Custom path
var key = wallet.GetKeyFromPath("m/44'/60'/0'/0/5");

When to Use Which

Feature	`Nethereum.HDWallet`	`MinimalHDWallet`
Dependencies	NBitcoin	None
Frameworks	net452+	net6.0+
Extended keys (xPub)	Yes	No
Key caching	Yes	No
Best for	Full wallet apps	Embedded, mobile, WASM
