What it does

Monitoring Whale Activity is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Track large cryptocurrency transactions and whale wallet movements in real-time. Use when tracking large holder movements, exchange flows, or wallet activity. Trigger with phrases like "track whales", "monitor large transfers", "check whale activity", "exchange inflows", or "watch wallet".

Its SKILL.md is about 960 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 14 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `ARD.md`, `PRD.md` and `config/settings.yaml`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Crypto and DeFi analysis. It works with Python. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tracking large holder movements
  • Wallet activity
  • With phrases like track whales
  • Monitor large transfers

Example prompts

  • “track whales”
  • “monitor large transfers”
  • “check whale activity”
  • “/monitoring-whale-activity”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, Bash(python:*whale*)

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Navigate to Scripts Directory
  2. Choose a Command
  3. Interpret Results

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • Bash(python:*whale*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 5 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • whale-alert.io
    • etherscan.io
    • coingecko.com

    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.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Monitoring Whale Activity loads about 958 tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 269 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~79
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~958
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.5k

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.

Monitoring Whale Activity

Contents

Overview | Prerequisites | Instructions | Output | Error Handling | Examples | Resources

Overview

Track large cryptocurrency transactions and whale wallet movements across multiple blockchains. Monitor exchange inflows/outflows, manage custom watchlists, and identify known wallets (exchanges, funds, bridges).

Prerequisites

  1. Install Python 3.8+ with requests library
  2. Optionally obtain Whale Alert API key (free tier available for live data)
  3. Verify internet access for API calls

Instructions

Step 1: Navigate to Scripts Directory
bash
cd ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts
Step 2: Choose a Command
  1. View recent whale transactions: python whale_monitor.py recent
  2. Analyze exchange flows: python whale_monitor.py flows
  3. Manage watchlist: python whale_monitor.py watchlist
  4. Track specific wallet: python whale_monitor.py track 0x123...
  5. Search known labels: python whale_monitor.py labels --query binance

Alternatively, customize with chain and threshold filters:

bash
python whale_monitor.py recent --chain ethereum              # Specific chain
python whale_monitor.py recent --min-value 10000000          # 10000000: $10M+ only
python whale_monitor.py watch 0x123... --name "My Whale"     # Add to watchlist
python whale_monitor.py labels --type exchange               # Or use type filter
Step 3: Interpret Results

Transaction Types:

  • DEPOSIT: Sent to exchange (potential selling pressure)
  • WITHDRAWAL: From exchange (accumulation signal)
  • TRANSFER: Wallet to wallet (whale movement)

Flow Analysis:

  • Net positive flow to exchanges = selling pressure
  • Net negative flow from exchanges = buying pressure

Output

  • Real-time whale transactions with USD values
  • Labeled wallets (exchanges, funds, bridges, protocols)
  • Exchange inflow/outflow summaries
  • Custom watchlist tracking
  • JSON, table, or alert format output (--format json)

Error Handling

See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/errors.md for:

  • API rate limit handling and backoff
  • Network timeout recovery
  • Invalid address format validation
  • Price service fallbacks

Examples

Example 1: View $10M+ whale transactions on Ethereum:

bash
python whale_monitor.py recent --chain ethereum --min-value 10000000  # 10000000 = 10M limit

Example 2: Analyze if whales are selling:

bash
python whale_monitor.py flows --chain ethereum

Example 3: Track a known whale wallet:

bash
python whale_monitor.py watch 0x28c6c... --name "Binance Cold"
python whale_monitor.py track 0x28c6c...

Example 4: Export to JSON for further analysis:

bash
python whale_monitor.py recent --format json > whales.json

See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/examples.md for more usage patterns.
