NFT Standards

Master ERC-721 and ERC-1155 NFT standards, metadata best practices, and advanced NFT features.

Do not use this skill when

• The task is unrelated to nft standards
• You need a different domain or tool outside this scope

Instructions

• Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.
• Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.
• Provide actionable steps and verification.
• If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.

Use this skill when

• Creating NFT collections (art, gaming, collectibles)
• Implementing marketplace functionality
• Building on-chain or off-chain metadata
• Creating soulbound tokens (non-transferable)
• Implementing royalties and revenue sharing
• Developing dynamic/evolving NFTs

Best Practices

1. Use OpenZeppelin: Battle-tested implementations
2. Pin Metadata: Use IPFS with pinning service
3. Implement Royalties: EIP-2981 for marketplace compatibility
4. Gas Optimization: Use ERC721A for batch minting
5. Reveal Mechanism: Placeholder → reveal pattern
6. Enumeration: Support walletOfOwner for marketplaces
7. Whitelist: Merkle trees for efficient whitelisting

Marketplace Integration

• OpenSea: ERC-721/1155, metadata standards
• LooksRare: Royalty enforcement
• Rarible: Protocol fees, lazy minting
• Blur: Gas-optimized trading
