# @buidlguidl: hacked wallet recovery using EIP-7702 delegation

Source: https://x.com/buidlguidl/status/2088641869119111470

## Summary

BuidlGuidl has released a Hacked Wallet Recovery skill that uses EIP-7702 delegation to rescue assets from a wallet whose private key an attacker already holds. The article says a plain rescue transaction fails because a sweeper bot takes any gas sent to the compromised wallet. Under the described design, the compromised key signs one harmless authorization locally, a separate funded operator wallet pays gas and broadcasts, and one atomic transaction sweeps all tokens, NFTs and native ETH to a safe wallet. The article says the skill is portable and runs in Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI and others.

## Article

If an attacker has your private key, you can't just send a rescue transaction. The moment gas lands in the wallet, a sweeper bot takes it.

BuidlGuidl's Hacked Wallet Recovery skill is built for exactly this, using EIP-7702 delegation:
- the compromised key signs one harmless authorization locally and never leaves your terminal
- a separate funded operator wallet pays the gas and broadcasts
- one atomic transaction sweeps every token, NFT, and the native ETH to a safe wallet

It's a portable agent skill, so it runs in Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI and others.
