SDP Tokenization

Use this skill when someone wants to understand how to tokenize an asset with Solana Developer Platform, map a business requirement to the right token model, or turn that plan into an SDP integration sequence.

Scope

Stay on the supported public surface only:

• public docs under apps/sdp-docs/content/docs/**
• public API contract in apps/sdp-api/src/openapi/**

Do not rely on hidden or internal route families.

Default workflow

1. Classify the asset and control model.
2. Load only the relevant public references from references/tokenization-map.md.
3. Recommend the right SDP template or custom configuration.
4. Explain the implementation sequence in order:

- organization and wallet setup - API key scope and permissions - token creation - deployment - minting, transfers, and redemptions - allowlist, freeze, pause, and authority operations if needed

1. Call out operational constraints and authority ownership explicitly.

Output shape

Default to these sections unless the user asks for something narrower:

• Asset type and operating model
• Recommended SDP template or token configuration
• Required wallets, authorities, and permissions
• Step-by-step implementation flow
• Relevant docs and endpoints
• Risks, compliance controls, and operational caveats

Decision rules

• Recommend stablecoin for fiat-backed issuance with pause and delegated admin controls.
• Recommend tokenized-security for regulated assets that usually need allowlists and stronger compliance controls.
• Recommend arcade for closed-loop, loyalty, or gaming-style tokens.
• Recommend custom only when templates do not fit the issuance model.
• Prefer SDP-controlled custody wallets for mint, freeze, metadata, and other authorities by default.
• Treat external or multisig authorities as an advanced path and state that clearly.

Operational guidance

• A token must be created before it can be deployed, and deployed before it can be minted or transferred.
• Amounts are usually submitted in smallest-unit token amounts, not UI-decimal strings.
• Burn, freeze, and similar account-level operations often require a token account address rather than a wallet address.
• If a token is paused, minting and transfer-related actions should be treated as unavailable until it is unpaused.
• If a workflow needs SDP to sign directly, recommend execute flows first; use prepare flows only when the signer needs to be external to SDP.

When to open more references

• Open references/tokenization-map.md first for the public playbook.
• Open specific guides only for the steps actually relevant to the user.
• Open apps/sdp-api/src/openapi/paths/issuance.ts and apps/sdp-api/src/openapi/paths/payments.ts when the user needs endpoint-level mapping from committed source.

Boundaries

• Do not promise legal or regulatory sufficiency; describe product controls and note where legal review is still needed.
• Do not invent unsupported issuance templates, custody modes, or hidden APIs.
• Do not recommend internal-only routes even if they exist in the codebase.
