Wallet Integration (Para)

This skill covers adding wallet + authentication to the frontend of a Monad project using Para and the para CLI (@getpara/cli).

Para gives users embedded MPC wallets — they sign in with email, phone, passkey, or a social provider (Google, Apple, Twitter, Discord, Facebook, Farcaster) and instantly have a wallet, no browser extension required. It also supports connecting external wallets (MetaMask, Coinbase, WalletConnect, Rainbow, Zerion, Rabby) for users who already have one. The same ParaProvider handles both flows.

This skill assumes the frontend already exists (typically scaffolded by the scaffold/ skill into web/). It does not scaffold a new app — Para's para create template is intentionally out of scope here, since the project scaffold is handled elsewhere.

When to fetch this skill

• The user wants any wallet connect / sign-in flow on their frontend, on Monad mainnet or testnet.
• The user wants embedded wallets, social login, email/SMS login, or passkey login.
• The user has an existing frontend (Next.js or Vite) and wants to add Para to it (para init + ParaProvider + para doctor).
• The user wants to manage Para API keys, environments, webhooks, branding, or auth methods from the CLI.
• The user wants to debug a wallet integration that isn't working (para doctor).

Monad on Para

Para's --networks flag supports evm. Monad mainnet and Monad testnet are EVM chains, so they fit the EVM template — but Para doesn't ship Monad as a built-in chain object. After para init, you import monad and monadTestnet from wagmi/chains and pass them through externalWalletConfig.evmConnector.config.{chains,transports} on the ParaProvider (v2 stores the chain list there — there is no separate wagmi.ts createConfig and no defaultChain prop). See references/para-monad-wiring.md for the exact code edits.
