Preview a Borrow operation with its paired quote method, or size a borrow with getRequiredCollateral or getMaxBorrow. For the full list of quote methods and their return shapes, see Borrow quote methods.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that you’ve: These are required so any example below runs with a valid kit and adapter.

Preview a borrow

getBorrowQuote handles both opening a new loan and borrowing more against an existing one. To preview opening a new loan, pass the walletAddress, chain, and marketId:
TypeScript
To preview borrowing more against an existing loan, pass its loanId. The service resolves the owner, blockchain, and market from the loan:
TypeScript
Either call returns the collateralAmount the borrow would pull, the loanAssetAmount it would deliver, the market’s borrowApy, fees, gasFees, and the position’s resultingHealthFactor, resultingLtv, resultingBand, and liquidationPrice.

Preview add collateral

Quote the effect of adding cirBTC to an existing loan:
TypeScript
The quote returns fees, gasFees, and the position’s resulting health fields after the collateral addition.

Preview a repayment

Quote a partial repayment. The SDK rejects repayments that exceed the loan’s outstanding debt at quote time.
TypeScript
The quote returns the requested repayAmount, fees, gasFees, and resulting health fields.

Preview a full close

Quote a full payoff. Because closeLoan uses share-based payoff math and may pull more USDC than needed (up to your slippageBps bound), the quote’s bundledRepayment reflects the upper bound of what the transaction may pull.
TypeScript
The quote returns bundledRepayment (the upper bound of USDC the close may pull), collateralAmount (the cirBTC returned), fees, gasFees, and resulting health fields.

Preview withdrawing collateral

Quote the effect of withdrawing collateral, including the USDC required for the internal repay leg:
TypeScript
The quote returns collateralAmount (the cirBTC released), bundledRepayment (the upper bound of USDC needed for the internal repay leg), fees, gasFees, and resulting health fields. Between preview and execution, the exact repayment amount can shift slightly as interest accrues on the loan. slippageBps (default 300, or 3%) caps how much larger the actual repayment can be than the previewed amount. Pass a smaller slippageBps to tighten the ceiling, or omit it for the default.

Size a borrow

Use getRequiredCollateral when the user knows how much USDC they want and what health factor they want to land on:
TypeScript
Use getMaxBorrow when the user has a fixed collateral amount and wants to see the largest borrow it supports:
TypeScript
Both return the sizing value along with resultingHealthFactor and liquidationPrice. They do not return fees, gasFees, resultingLtv, or resultingBand.
