At a glance

Query CoinGecko API for prices, market data, trending tokens, and historical charts.

  • SKILL.md covers Base URL, Endpoints, CoinGecko ID Reference and Usage Notes

What it does

Coingecko is an agent skill from TermiX-official/cryptoclaw. Query CoinGecko API for prices, market data, trending tokens, and historical charts.

Its SKILL.md is about 760 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Stock and market analysis. It works with Ethereum and Arbitrum. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Stock and market analysis

Example prompts

  • “/coingecko”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9e1c91b. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • api.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.

Context cost

Coingecko loads about 755 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 24 tokens; SKILL.md has 221 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~24
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~755

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

  • The market-data skill provides high-level workflow guidance; this skill is the concrete API reference
  • Report data source and freshness: "CoinGecko, fetched just now"
