wallet-cli contract

Call, send, deploy, inspect, and govern smart contracts.

The governing part is the deployer's: who pays a call's energy, and whether the contract keeps an ABI on chain. Those settings are TRON's, belong to the account that deployed the contract, and take effect as soon as the transaction confirms. create2 is unrelated to any of that — it is local arithmetic over an address that does not exist yet.

Command Page Description Networks
contract call call.md Read-only call TRON, EVM
contract send send.md State-changing call TRON, EVM
contract deploy deploy.md Deploy a smart contract TRON, EVM
contract info info.md Show contract ABI + metadata TRON only
contract clear-abi clear-abi.md Clear the on-chain ABI (irreversible) TRON only
contract set-origin-energy-limit set-origin-energy-limit.md Energy the deployer covers per call TRON only
contract set-user-resource-percent set-user-resource-percent.md Share of a call's energy paid by the caller TRON only
contract create2 create2.md Compute a CREATE2 address locally TRON only

call, send and deploy run on both families; the rest implement TRON protocol features with no EVM counterpart and fail there with family_mismatch. The portable three share the families, not the flags: contract call is read-only and takes call inputs, while contract send and contract deploy are write transactions and carry the fee/signing vocabulary — --fee-limit / --permission-id / --expiration on TRON, --gas-limit / --max-fee / --priority-fee / --nonce on EVM, each refused on the other family with invalid_option.
