Where most onchain interfaces present finance as disconnected actions, Clio presents a unified execution surface where swap, staking, and lending positions are managed in one system. The product is structured around three modules: **Swap** (efficient token exchange), **Stake** (curated single-asset yield pools), and **Lend** (collateralized borrowing with visible risk metrics). Clio is named after Clio, the Greek Muse of history. The name reflects our product thesis: finance software should not hide context. Users need clear records, measurable risk, and transparent execution. This document describes the system in detail: the problem we are addressing, the architecture of our response, the token that aligns participants, and the team and governance plan that backs it. ### At a Glance * **Chain:** BNB Smart Chain (chainId 56) * **Wallets supported:** MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Phantom * **Status at publication:** Phase II — public mainnet launch, security review planning, initial liquidity bootstrap * **Security reviews:** Independent review process in planning * **Community:** X and Telegram (links in [Community & Governance](broken://pages/1a65c6cb6f8a086f38a54bccf40ebe1e0d8f9ba8)) --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://clio-defi.gitbook.io/docs/introduction.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
