Helius

Helius is a Solana RPC and data infrastructure provider. It offers enhanced REST endpoints (parsed transactions, NFT events), the Digital Asset Standard (DAS) API for NFTs and fungible tokens, and full Solana JSON-RPC access.

In Agent Forge, the Helius integration lets workflows read the Solana blockchain — wallet balances, parsed transaction history, NFT collections, account data, signatures, priority fee estimates, and arbitrary RPC calls. Use it for Solana portfolio tracking, NFT activity monitoring, on-chain alerts, DAS queries for compressed NFTs, agentic wallet research, and any workflow that needs first-class Solana data.

This is a bring-your-own-key (BYOK) integration — each user supplies their own Helius API key.

Usage Instructions

Pick an operation, paste your Helius API key, and provide the address/signature/mint required by that operation. Operations grouped under NFTs / DAS use Helius's DAS API and support both standard and compressed NFTs. Operations grouped under Chain are pass-throughs to Solana JSON-RPC, accelerated by Helius's infrastructure. The Custom RPC Call lets you invoke any Solana RPC method not covered explicitly.

Switch to Devnet under advanced settings when developing against the Solana devnet.

helius_parse_transactions - Parse specific transaction signatures into human-readable format
helius_get_transaction - Raw RPC getTransaction for a single signature
helius_get_signatures - Recent transaction signatures for an address

NFTs / DAS

helius_get_asset - NFT or token metadata by mint address
helius_get_assets_by_owner - All assets owned by a wallet (compressed + standard)
helius_get_assets_by_group - Assets in a collection
helius_search_assets - Flexible search across NFTs/tokens
helius_nft_events - NFT events (mints, sales, listings) filtered by account/collection

Chain

helius_get_account_info - Account data and metadata
helius_get_slot - Current slot of the Solana network
helius_get_block - Block contents by slot number

Fees

helius_priority_fee - Priority fee estimate for a transaction (by account keys or serialized tx)

Custom

helius_rpc_call - Arbitrary Solana JSON-RPC call with method + params

Common Inputs

`groupValue`	string	Operation-specific	DAS group value (collection ID)
`query`	string (JSON)	Operation-specific	JSON query object for search / events
`transactions`	string (JSON array)	Operation-specific	Array of signatures to parse
`signature`	string	Operation-specific	Single transaction signature
`slot`	number	Operation-specific	Block slot
`method`	string	Operation-specific	JSON-RPC method name for custom calls
`rpcParams`	string (JSON array)	No	Parameters for the custom RPC method
`limit` / `page`	number	No	Pagination

Output

Parameter	Type	Description
`data`	json	Helius response data

Notes

Category: tools
Type: helius
BYOK only. The platform does not hold a Helius API key.
Free tier on Helius covers development; commercial workloads should use a paid tier.
All operations are read-only. Transaction submission (sendTransaction) can be invoked via helius_rpc_call if needed, but you must sign the transaction externally first.
DAS API supports compressed NFTs (cNFTs) natively — helius_get_assets_by_owner returns both standard and compressed assets.
