What it does

Crypto Trading is an agent skill from CoWork-OS/CoWork-OS. Use ccxt (Python) for crypto prices, balances, and order actions across 100+ exchanges.

Its SKILL.md is about 610 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/crypto_trading.py`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Trading and backtesting. It works with Python. The repository describes itself as: Local-first personal agentic OS and everything app for coding, knowledge work, web design, automations, and artifacts. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Trading and backtesting

Example prompts

  • “/crypto-trading”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0ace02b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Crypto Trading loads about 612 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 26 tokens; SKILL.md has 247 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~26
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~612

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Crypto Trading

Purpose

Use ccxt (Python) for crypto prices, balances, and order actions across 100+ exchanges.

Routing

  • Use when: Use when users ask for live crypto prices, balances, or order placement across ccxt-supported exchanges.
  • Do not use when: Do not use for non-crypto topics, legal/compliance guidance, or high-level strategy discussion without concrete execution.
  • Outputs: Returns normalized JSON for price, balance, and order intent/results.
  • Success criteria: Returns explicit mode-specific result plus next steps, with safe handling when order confirmation is missing.

Trigger Examples

Positive
  • Use the crypto-trading skill for this request.
  • Help me with crypto trading.
  • Use when users ask for live crypto prices, balances, or order placement across ccxt-supported exchanges.
  • Crypto Trading: provide an actionable result.
Negative
  • Do not use for non-crypto topics, legal/compliance guidance, or high-level strategy discussion without concrete execution.
  • Do not use crypto-trading for unrelated requests.
  • This request is outside crypto trading scope.
  • This is conceptual discussion only; no tool workflow is needed.
