title	ens:set-primary-name

Set the primary ENS name (reverse record) of the calling account.

Syntax

ens:set-primary-name <name>

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
name	string	ENS name (e.g. mydao.eth)

Options

Name	Type	Description
--for	address	Set the primary name of this contract instead (the caller must be the contract, its Ownable owner, or an approved operator)

Examples

load ens

# Name the executing account (e.g. a DAO agent or Safe running this script)
ens:set-primary-name mydao.eth

# Name a contract owned by the executing account
ens:set-primary-name treasury.mydao.eth --for 0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678

Notes

• The reverse record only counts as a primary name when the forward record matches: make sure mydao.eth resolves to the account first (see ens:set-addr).
• With --for, the caller must be the target contract itself, its Ownable owner, or an approved operator on the Reverse Registrar.
