ENS Development Support

Comprehensive toolkit for building applications with Ethereum Name Service (ENS) - the decentralized naming protocol that converts addresses into human-readable names like "vitalik.eth".

Quick Start

Core Concepts

ENS converts complex addresses into memorable names across the entire Web3 ecosystem. Understanding the key components is essential:

Name Resolution Flow:

code

ENS Name (vitalik.eth)
  ↓ Registry lookup
ENS Registry (finds resolver)
  ↓ Resolver query
Resolver Contract (returns address)
  ↓ Result
Ethereum Address (0xd8dA...)

Key decision points:

•Register .eth names → ETH Registrar Controller (annual registration)
•Resolve names to addresses → Universal Resolver (supports all resolution types)
•Create subdomains → Registry + Resolver (owner can create infinite subdomains)
•Add profile data → Public Resolver (avatars, URLs, social handles)
•Manage permissions → Name Wrapper (programmable ownership with fuses)
•Integrate DNS domains → DNSSEC Oracle (import traditional domains)
•Support L2/multichain → CCIP Read (ERC-3668 for offchain resolution)
•Address to name lookup → Reverse Resolver (.addr.reverse)

Common Tasks

1. Resolve ENS name to address:

•Review basic_resolution.ts for simple name resolution
•Key points: Universal Resolver usage, normalization, error handling
•See resolution-guide.md for advanced patterns

2. Register .eth domain:

•Use registration_example.ts for commit-reveal flow
•Alternative: Use ENS Manager App at https://ens.app for UI-based registration
•See registration-guide.md for pricing and flow details

3. Create and manage subdomains:

•Use subdomain_creation.ts for programmatic subdomain creation
•Configure permissions with Name Wrapper for granular control
•See subdomains-guide.md for architecture patterns

4. Set avatar and profile records:

•Start with profile_records.ts for avatar, URL, social records
•Supports NFT avatars via EIP-634 format
•See records-guide.md for all record types

5. Integrate with smart contracts:

•Use contract_integration.sol for Solidity integration
•Key pattern: Query resolver for specific record types
•See contracts-guide.md for gas optimization

6. Enable multichain resolution:

•Implement ccip_read_example.ts for L2/offchain resolution
•Test with "test.offchaindemo.eth" (resolves to 0x779981590E7Ccc0CFAe8040Ce7151324747cDb97)
•See multichain-guide.md for CCIP Read implementation

Core Workflows

Name Resolution

Basic Resolution (viem v2.35.0+):

typescript

import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem';
import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains';
import { normalize } from 'viem/ens';

// 1. Initialize client
const client = createPublicClient({
  chain: mainnet,
  transport: http()
});

// 2. Resolve name to address
const address = await client.getEnsAddress({
  name: normalize('vitalik.eth')
});
// Returns: 0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045

// 3. Reverse resolution (address to name)
const name = await client.getEnsName({
  address: '0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045'
});
// Returns: vitalik.eth

Advanced Resolution with Universal Resolver:

typescript

import { createPublicClient, http, namehash } from 'viem';
import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains';

const client = createPublicClient({
  chain: mainnet,
  transport: http()
});

// Universal Resolver address (automatically used by viem)
const UNIVERSAL_RESOLVER = '0xeEeEEEeE14D718C2B47D9923Deab1335E144EeEe';

// Resolve multiple record types
const avatar = await client.getEnsAvatar({ name: normalize('vitalik.eth') });
const text = await client.getEnsText({
  name: normalize('vitalik.eth'),
  key: 'com.twitter'
});
const contentHash = await client.getEnsText({
  name: normalize('vitalik.eth'),
  key: 'contentHash'
});

With ethers.js:

typescript

import { ethers } from 'ethers';

const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider('https://eth-mainnet.g.alchemy.com/v2/YOUR_KEY');

// Forward resolution
const address = await provider.resolveName('vitalik.eth');

// Reverse resolution
const name = await provider.lookupAddress('0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045');

// Get resolver for advanced queries
const resolver = await provider.getResolver('vitalik.eth');
const avatar = await resolver.getAvatar();
const twitter = await resolver.getText('com.twitter');

See basic_resolution.ts for complete implementation.

.eth Domain Registration

.eth registration uses a commit-reveal pattern to prevent front-running:

typescript

import { createWalletClient, http, namehash } from 'viem';
import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains';
import { privateKeyToAccount } from 'viem/accounts';

const account = privateKeyToAccount('0x...');
const client = createWalletClient({
  account,
  chain: mainnet,
  transport: http()
});

// Contract addresses
const ETH_REGISTRAR_CONTROLLER = '0x59E16fcCd424Cc24e280Be16E11Bcd56fb0CE547';

// 1. Check name availability
const name = 'myname';
const available = await publicClient.readContract({
  address: ETH_REGISTRAR_CONTROLLER,
  abi: registrarAbi,
  functionName: 'available',
  args: [name]
});

if (!available) throw new Error('Name not available');

// 2. Make commitment
const commitment = await publicClient.readContract({
  address: ETH_REGISTRAR_CONTROLLER,
  abi: registrarAbi,
  functionName: 'makeCommitment',
  args: [name, account.address, duration, secret, resolver, [], false, 0]
});

const commitTx = await client.writeContract({
  address: ETH_REGISTRAR_CONTROLLER,
  abi: registrarAbi,
  functionName: 'commit',
  args: [commitment]
});

// 3. Wait minimum 60 seconds (anti-front-running)
await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 60000));

// 4. Register name (requires ETH payment)
const price = await publicClient.readContract({
  address: ETH_REGISTRAR_CONTROLLER,
  abi: registrarAbi,
  functionName: 'rentPrice',
  args: [name, duration]
});

const registerTx = await client.writeContract({
  address: ETH_REGISTRAR_CONTROLLER,
  abi: registrarAbi,
  functionName: 'register',
  args: [name, account.address, duration, secret, resolver, [], false, 0],
  value: price.base + price.premium
});

Pricing (as of ENSv2):

•5+ characters: $5/year
•4 characters: $160/year
•3 characters: $640/year

Grace Period: 90 days after expiration with 21-day declining premium

See registration_example.ts for complete flow.

Subdomain Creation & Management

Creating Subdomains (Domain Owner):

typescript

import { createWalletClient, http, namehash } from 'viem';
import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains';

const client = createWalletClient({
  account,
  chain: mainnet,
  transport: http()
});

const ENS_REGISTRY = '0x00000000000C2E074eC69A0dFb2997BA6C7d2e1e';
const PUBLIC_RESOLVER = '0xF29100983E058B709F3D539b0c765937B804AC15';

// 1. Create subdomain (you must own parent domain)
const parentNode = namehash('mydomain.eth');
const label = 'sub'; // Creates sub.mydomain.eth
const labelHash = keccak256(toBytes(label));

// Set subdomain owner in registry
await client.writeContract({
  address: ENS_REGISTRY,
  abi: registryAbi,
  functionName: 'setSubnodeOwner',
  args: [parentNode, labelHash, newOwnerAddress]
});

// 2. Configure resolver for subdomain
const subdomainNode = namehash('sub.mydomain.eth');

await client.writeContract({
  address: ENS_REGISTRY,
  abi: registryAbi,
  functionName: 'setResolver',
  args: [subdomainNode, PUBLIC_RESOLVER]
});

// 3. Set address record in resolver
await client.writeContract({
  address: PUBLIC_RESOLVER,
  abi: resolverAbi,
  functionName: 'setAddr',
  args: [subdomainNode, targetAddress]
});

Using Name Wrapper for Permission Control:

typescript

const NAME_WRAPPER = '0xD4416b13d2b3a9aBae7AcD5D6C2BbDBE25686401';

// Wrap name to enable fuses
await client.writeContract({
  address: NAME_WRAPPER,
  abi: wrapperAbi,
  functionName: 'wrapETH2LD',
  args: ['mydomain', account.address, 0, ethers.ZeroAddress]
});

// Create subdomain with custom permissions
const PARENT_CANNOT_CONTROL = 1 << 16; // Parent can't modify
const CANNOT_TRANSFER = 1 << 1; // Name can't be transferred

await client.writeContract({
  address: NAME_WRAPPER,
  abi: wrapperAbi,
  functionName: 'setSubnodeOwner',
  args: [
    parentNode,
    'sub',
    newOwner,
    PARENT_CANNOT_CONTROL | CANNOT_TRANSFER,
    expiry
  ]
});

See subdomain_creation.ts for production patterns.

Avatar & Profile Records

Setting Profile Records:

typescript

import { createWalletClient, http, namehash } from 'viem';

const PUBLIC_RESOLVER = '0xF29100983E058B709F3D539b0c765937B804AC15';

const node = namehash('myname.eth');

// 1. Set avatar (supports multiple formats)
// NFT avatar: eip155:1/erc721:0x... or eip155:1/erc1155:0x.../1
await client.writeContract({
  address: PUBLIC_RESOLVER,
  abi: resolverAbi,
  functionName: 'setText',
  args: [node, 'avatar', 'eip155:1/erc721:0xb7F7F6C52F2e2fdb1963Eab30438024864c313F6/2430']
});

// IPFS avatar: ipfs://...
await client.writeContract({
  address: PUBLIC_RESOLVER,
  abi: resolverAbi,
  functionName: 'setText',
  args: [node, 'avatar', 'ipfs://QmY...']
});

// 2. Set social records
const records = {
  'com.twitter': 'vitalikbuterin',
  'com.github': 'vbuterin',
  'url': 'https://vitalik.eth.limo',
  'email': 'vitalik@ethereum.org',
  'description': 'Ethereum co-founder'
};

for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(records)) {
  await client.writeContract({
    address: PUBLIC_RESOLVER,
    abi: resolverAbi,
    functionName: 'setText',
    args: [node, key, value]
  });
}

// 3. Set content hash (for decentralized websites)
await client.writeContract({
  address: PUBLIC_RESOLVER,
  abi: resolverAbi,
  functionName: 'setContenthash',
  args: [node, contentHash] // IPFS or Swarm hash
});

// 4. Set multiple coin addresses (multichain)
// Ethereum (coinType: 60)
await client.writeContract({
  address: PUBLIC_RESOLVER,
  abi: resolverAbi,
  functionName: 'setAddr',
  args: [node, 60, ethAddressBytes]
});

// Bitcoin (coinType: 0)
await client.writeContract({
  address: PUBLIC_RESOLVER,
  abi: resolverAbi,
  functionName: 'setAddr',
  args: [node, 0, btcAddressBytes]
});

See profile_records.ts for all record types.

Smart Contract Integration

Query ENS in Solidity:

solidity

// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity ^0.8.19;

interface IENSRegistry {
    function resolver(bytes32 node) external view returns (address);
}

interface IResolver {
    function addr(bytes32 node) external view returns (address);
}

contract ENSIntegration {
    IENSRegistry public immutable ens;

    constructor(address _ens) {
        ens = IENSRegistry(_ens);
    }

    function resolve(bytes32 node) public view returns (address) {
        address resolver = ens.resolver(node);
        if (resolver == address(0)) return address(0);

        return IResolver(resolver).addr(node);
    }

    function sendToENSName(bytes32 node) external payable {
        address recipient = resolve(node);
        require(recipient != address(0), "ENS name not found");

        (bool success, ) = recipient.call{value: msg.value}("");
        require(success, "Transfer failed");
    }
}

Using @ensdomains/ens-contracts package:

solidity

pragma solidity ^0.8.19;

import "@ensdomains/ens-contracts/contracts/registry/ENS.sol";
import "@ensdomains/ens-contracts/contracts/resolvers/PublicResolver.sol";

contract MyContract {
    ENS public ens;

    constructor(ENS _ens) {
        ens = _ens;
    }

    function getAddress(bytes32 node) public view returns (address) {
        address resolverAddr = ens.resolver(node);
        if (resolverAddr == address(0)) return address(0);

        PublicResolver resolver = PublicResolver(resolverAddr);
        return resolver.addr(node);
    }
}

See contract_integration.sol for production template.

Multichain Resolution (CCIP Read)

CCIP Read (ERC-3668) for L2 and Offchain Resolution:

typescript

import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem';
import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains';

const client = createPublicClient({
  chain: mainnet,
  transport: http(),
  // CCIP Read is automatically supported in viem 2.35.0+
});

// Resolve L2/offchain ENS name
const address = await client.getEnsAddress({
  name: normalize('test.offchaindemo.eth')
});
// Should resolve to: 0x779981590E7Ccc0CFAe8040Ce7151324747cDb97
// even though data is stored on L2 or offchain

// Query offchain text records
const twitter = await client.getEnsText({
  name: normalize('l2name.eth'),
  key: 'com.twitter'
});

Implementing Custom CCIP Read Resolver:

solidity

// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity ^0.8.19;

interface IOffchainResolver {
    error OffchainLookup(
        address sender,
        string[] urls,
        bytes callData,
        bytes4 callbackFunction,
        bytes extraData
    );

    function resolve(bytes calldata name, bytes calldata data)
        external
        view
        returns (bytes memory);
}

contract CCIPReadResolver is IOffchainResolver {
    string[] public urls;

    constructor(string[] memory _urls) {
        urls = _urls;
    }

    function resolve(bytes calldata name, bytes calldata data)
        external
        view
        returns (bytes memory)
    {
        revert OffchainLookup(
            address(this),
            urls,
            data,
            this.resolveWithProof.selector,
            abi.encode(name, data)
        );
    }

    function resolveWithProof(bytes calldata response, bytes calldata extraData)
        external
        view
        returns (bytes memory)
    {
        // Verify offchain data and return result
        // Implementation depends on your L2/offchain storage
    }
}

See ccip_read_example.ts for complete implementation.

Critical Security Requirements

Never deploy without:

•Name Normalization: Always use UTS-46 normalization before processing names
•Input Validation: Validate ENS names match expected format (no homograph attacks)
•Address Verification: Display both name AND address in transaction UIs
•Resolver Verification: Check resolver is trusted before using its data
•Expiry Checks: Verify name hasn't expired before critical operations
•Reverse Record Validation: Confirm reverse record matches forward resolution
•CCIP Read Security: Validate offchain data signatures and sources
•Private Key Protection: Never expose private keys when setting records

UI Best Practices:

•Show both "vitalik.eth" AND "0xd8d..." in transaction confirmations
•Implement debouncing for ENS input fields (300-500ms)
•Display warning if name will expire soon (<30 days)
•Check reverse record is set before displaying name in place of address

See security.md for complete checklist.

Name States & Wrapped Names

Unwrapped → Wrapped → Emancipated → Locked:

•Unwrapped: Traditional ENS ownership (mutable, no fuses)
•Wrapped: Converted to ERC-1155 NFT (fuses can be set)
•Emancipated: Parent cannot control (PARENT_CANNOT_CONTROL burned)
•Locked: Name locked permanently (CANNOT_UNWRAP burned)

Fuse Types:

•Parent-Controlled: Grant "perks" (e.g., CAN_EXTEND_EXPIRY)
•Owner-Controlled: Restrict "permissions" (e.g., CANNOT_TRANSFER)

See name-wrapper-guide.md for complete fuse reference.

Resolution Flow

typescript

// Modern approach with Universal Resolver (automatically handles all cases)
const address = await client.getEnsAddress({ name: normalize('name.eth') });

// Traditional approach (manual registry + resolver lookup)
const registry = getContract({ address: ENS_REGISTRY, abi: registryAbi, client });
const resolverAddress = await registry.read.resolver([namehash('name.eth')]);
const resolver = getContract({ address: resolverAddress, abi: resolverAbi, client });
const address = await resolver.read.addr([namehash('name.eth')]);

import { expect } from 'chai';
import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem';
import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains';
import { normalize } from 'viem/ens';

describe('ENS Resolution', () => {
  const client = createPublicClient({

  });

  it('should resolve vitalik.eth correctly', async () => {
    const address = await client.getEnsAddress({
      name: normalize('vitalik.eth')
    });

    expect(address).to.equal('0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045');

Common Pitfalls

•Missing Normalization: Always normalize names with UTS-46 before hashing
•Direct Registry Queries: Use Universal Resolver instead of manual registry lookups
•Hardcoded Resolver: Don't assume Public Resolver - always query from registry
•Namehash Errors: Use library functions for namehash - manual implementation is error-prone
•Reverse Record Assumptions: Not all addresses have reverse records set
•Expiry Ignorance: Check expiry before trusting resolution in critical paths
•CCIP Read Timeout: Offchain resolution can be slow - implement proper timeout handling
•Homograph Attacks: Validate input to prevent look-alike character exploitation
•Missing ENSv2 Support: Update to viem 2.35.0+ or ethers v6+ for Universal Resolver
•Gas Optimization: Batch resolver queries when fetching multiple records

ENSv2 Migration Checklist

For App Developers:

•✅ Update viem to v2.35.0+ or ethers to v6+
•✅ Use Universal Resolver (automatic with updated libraries)
•✅ Test with "test.offchaindemo.eth" for CCIP Read support
•✅ Handle CCIP Read timeouts gracefully
•✅ Display both name and address in UIs

For Resolver Developers:

•✅ Implement ERC-3668 (CCIP Read) for offchain data
•✅ Support wildcard resolution if needed
•✅ Add proper signature verification for offchain responses
•✅ Test with Universal Resolver

For Subname Operators:

•✅ Consider wrapping names for permission management
•✅ Set appropriate fuses for subdomain distribution
•✅ Document subdomain expiry policies
•✅ Implement subdomain marketplace if needed

Support Context7 Integration

When the user needs up-to-date documentation or specific implementation details:

•Use ENS official docs as primary source: https://docs.ens.domains/
•For smart contract details: @ensdomains/ens-contracts on GitHub
•For library-specific questions: Use Context7 with viem or ethers.js
•Combine Context7 results with this skill's security guidelines

Example:

code

User: "How do I implement wildcard resolution?"
→ Check ENS docs for EIP-2544 (wildcard resolution)
→ Use Context7: query-docs with "@ensdomains/ens-contracts" for contract examples
→ Apply security patterns from security.md

Name Wrapper Fuse Reference

Owner-Controlled Fuses (Restrict Permissions)

•CANNOT_UNWRAP (0x01): Prevent unwrapping to traditional ENS
•CANNOT_BURN_FUSES (0x02): No more fuses can be burned
•CANNOT_TRANSFER (0x04): Name cannot be transferred
•CANNOT_SET_RESOLVER (0x08): Resolver cannot be changed
•CANNOT_SET_TTL (0x10): TTL cannot be modified
•CANNOT_CREATE_SUBDOMAIN (0x20): Cannot create new subdomains
•CANNOT_APPROVE (0x40): Cannot approve name transfers

Parent-Controlled Fuses (Grant Perks)

•PARENT_CANNOT_CONTROL (0x10000): Parent loses control (emancipation)
•CAN_EXTEND_EXPIRY (0x40000): Subdomain owner can extend expiry

Common Fuse Patterns

Locked Forever:

typescript

const LOCKED = CANNOT_UNWRAP | CANNOT_BURN_FUSES | PARENT_CANNOT_CONTROL;

Transferable but Locked:

typescript

const TRANSFERABLE_LOCKED = CANNOT_UNWRAP | CANNOT_BURN_FUSES;

Fully Controlled Subdomain:

typescript

const EMANCIPATED = PARENT_CANNOT_CONTROL | CAN_EXTEND_EXPIRY;

DNS Integration

ENS supports importing traditional DNS domains via DNSSEC:

Supported TLDs: .com, .org, .net, .io, .app, and 200+ more

Integration Flow:

•Add DNSSEC to your DNS domain
•Create TXT record: _ens.yourdomain.com → a=0xYourAddress
•Import to ENS via Manager App or contract call
•Manage DNS domain like native .eth name

Benefits:

•Use existing domain on ENS
•Full ENS feature support (records, subdomains, etc.)
•Bridge Web2 and Web3 identity

See ENS documentation for complete DNSSEC setup guide.
