# CoinMarketCap Data Skill

You have access to CoinMarketCap data through the CoinMarketCap app's tools. Use these tools to provide comprehensive, data-rich answers to crypto-related questions.

## Prerequisites

The tools referenced in this skill are provided by the CoinMarketCap app. If tools fail or return connection errors, ask the user to enable the CoinMarketCap app and sign in when prompted, then retry.

## Core Principle

Err on the side of fetching more data. A complete answer from multiple tools is better than a partial answer that leaves users asking for more. When in doubt, call additional tools to gather comprehensive data.

## Workflow

### 1. Always Search First

When a user mentions a cryptocurrency by name or symbol, search for it first to get the ID:

```
User: "How is Solana doing?"
→ Call search_cryptos with query "solana"
→ Get ID (e.g., 5426)
→ Then call other tools using that ID
```

Most tools require the numeric CMC ID, not the name or symbol. The search tool returns: id, name, symbol, slug, and rank.

### 2. Batch Requests When Useful

When dealing with multiple coins, batch the requests:

```
User: "Compare BTC, ETH, and SOL"
→ Search for each to get IDs: 1, 1027, 5426
→ Call get_crypto_quotes_latest with id="1,1027,5426"
```

This is more efficient than separate calls and allows for direct comparison in the response.

### 3. Match Tools to Query Type

**For price and market data:**
- `get_crypto_quotes_latest` returns price, market cap, volume, percent changes (1h, 24h, 7d, 30d, 90d, 1y), circulating supply, and dominance

**For coin background and links:**
- `get_crypto_info` returns description, website, social links, explorer URLs, tags, and launch date

**For technical analysis:**
- `get_crypto_technical_analysis` returns moving averages (SMA, EMA), MACD, RSI, Fibonacci levels, and pivot points

**For recent news:**
- `get_crypto_latest_news` returns headlines, descriptions, content, URLs, and publish dates

**For holder and distribution data:**
- `get_crypto_metrics` returns address counts by holding value, whale vs others distribution, and holder time breakdowns (traders, cruisers, holders)

**For concept explanations:**
- `search_crypto_info` performs semantic search on crypto concepts, whitepapers, and FAQs

**For overall market health:**
- `get_global_metrics_latest` returns total market cap, fear/greed index, altcoin season index, BTC/ETH dominance, volume, and ETF flows

**For derivatives and leverage data:**
- `get_global_crypto_derivatives_metrics` returns open interest, funding rates, liquidations, and futures vs perpetuals breakdown

**For total market cap technical analysis:**
- `get_crypto_marketcap_technical_analysis` returns TA indicators for the entire crypto market cap

**For trending themes:**
- `trending_crypto_narratives` returns hot narratives with market cap, volume, performance, and top coins in each narrative

**For upcoming catalysts:**
- `get_upcoming_macro_events` returns scheduled events like Fed meetings, regulatory deadlines, and major announcements

## Error Handling

**If search returns no results:**
1. Report that the coin was not found
2. Ask the user to clarify or check the spelling
3. Suggest alternatives if the query might be ambiguous

**If a tool fails or times out:**
1. Retry once for transient errors
2. If still failing, note which data is unavailable and proceed with other tools
3. For price queries, `get_crypto_quotes_latest` is critical. If it fails after retry, inform the user data is temporarily unavailable.
4. For background queries, `get_crypto_info` failure means note "Project info unavailable" and provide what you can from other tools

**If rate limited (429 error):**
1. Inform the user the API is rate limited
2. Suggest waiting a moment before retrying
3. Consider if fewer tool calls could answer the question

## Adapting to User Sophistication

Read context cues from the user's query:
- Casual questions ("how's bitcoin doing?") warrant a clear summary with key numbers
- Technical questions ("what's the RSI on BTC?") can include more detailed data
- Broad questions ("what's happening in crypto?") benefit from market-wide tools like global metrics and trending narratives

# Crypto Research Skill

Perform comprehensive due diligence on any cryptocurrency by systematically gathering and analyzing data from multiple CoinMarketCap tools.

## Prerequisites

The tools referenced in this skill are provided by the CoinMarketCap app. If tools fail or return connection errors, ask the user to enable the CoinMarketCap app and sign in when prompted, then retry.

## Core Principle

Thorough research requires looking at a token from multiple angles. Fetch all relevant data before forming conclusions. Surface both green flags and red flags.

## Research Workflow

### Step 1: Identify the Token

Call `search_cryptos` with the token name/symbol to get the CMC ID. If multiple results, clarify with the user which one they mean.

### Step 2: Basic Information

Call `get_crypto_info` to get:
- Project description and category
- Launch date
- Website, social links, documentation
- Tags (DeFi, Layer 1, Meme coin, etc.)

### Step 3: Market Data

Call `get_crypto_quotes_latest` to get:
- Current price and market cap
- 24h, 7d, 30d, 90d, 1y price changes
- Trading volume and volume change
- Circulating supply vs max supply
- Market cap rank

### Step 4: Holder Analysis

Call `get_crypto_metrics` to get:
- Address distribution by holding value ($0-1k, $1k-100k, $100k+)
- Whale concentration (% held by top holders)
- Holder behavior (traders vs cruisers vs long-term holders)

### Step 5: Technical Analysis

Call `get_crypto_technical_analysis` to get:
- Moving averages (7d, 30d, 200d SMA/EMA)
- RSI (oversold < 30, overbought > 70)
- MACD signal
- Fibonacci levels and pivot points

### Step 6: Recent News

Call `get_crypto_latest_news` with limit 5-10 to get recent headlines and sentiment.

### Step 7: Deep Dive (if needed)

Call `search_crypto_info` to answer specific questions about the token's technology, use case, or mechanics.

## Analysis Framework

After gathering data, evaluate across these dimensions:

### Fundamentals
- What problem does it solve?
- Is there a working product?
- How does it compare to competitors?
- Is the use case sustainable?

### Tokenomics
- What % of max supply is circulating?
- Is there inflation or deflation?
- Are there large unlocks coming?
- How concentrated is ownership?

### Market Position
- Market cap rank and trajectory
- Volume relative to market cap (healthy turnover?)
- Price trend (accumulation or distribution?)

### Risk Factors

**Red flags and why they matter:**
- Extreme whale concentration (>10% held by few addresses): Large holders can dump and crash price instantly
- Low holder count relative to market cap: Thin holder base means price is easily manipulated
- Declining holder numbers: Smart money may be exiting while retail holds bags
- Negative news sentiment: Ongoing negative coverage often precedes further declines
- Price down >80% from ATH with no recovery: May indicate fundamental problems, not just market cycles
- Very low trading volume: Hard to exit positions without significant slippage

**Green flags and why they matter:**
- Growing holder base: Organic adoption suggests real demand, not manufactured hype
- High % of long-term holders: Conviction from holders who have done research, less sell pressure
- Healthy distribution across address sizes: Resilient to any single actor manipulating price
- Active development and news flow: Team is shipping, project is alive and evolving
- Strong community engagement: Network effects build value and create sustainable demand

## Report Structure

Present findings in this format:

```

## Important Notes

- This is research, not financial advice
- Always present both positive and negative findings
- If data is missing or unavailable, note it explicitly
- For very new tokens, some metrics may be limited

## Handling Tool Failures

If individual tools fail during research:

1. **search_cryptos fails**: Cannot proceed without token ID. Ask user to verify spelling or try the contract address.
2. **get_crypto_info fails**: Skip Overview section, note "Project details unavailable" in report.
3. **get_crypto_quotes_latest fails**: Report is incomplete without price data. Retry once, then note "Market data unavailable."
4. **get_crypto_metrics fails**: Skip Holder Analysis section, note "Distribution data unavailable."
5. **get_crypto_technical_analysis fails**: Skip Technical Outlook section, note "Technical analysis unavailable."
6. **get_crypto_latest_news fails**: Skip Recent News section, proceed with other data.

Always complete the report with available data rather than abandoning the research entirely.

```

## Adapting the Report

- **Quick summary**: If user asks for brief overview, focus on Market Snapshot and BTC/ETH sections only
- **Full report**: Include all sections
- **Specific focus**: If user asks about derivatives or narratives specifically, expand that section with more detail

## Handling Tool Failures

If individual tools fail during report generation:

1. **get_global_metrics_latest fails**: Critical for Market Snapshot. Retry once, then note "Global metrics unavailable" and skip that section.
2. **get_crypto_marketcap_technical_analysis fails**: Skip Market Technicals section, proceed with other data.
3. **get_global_crypto_derivatives_metrics fails**: Skip Leverage & Sentiment section, note "Derivatives data unavailable."
4. **trending_crypto_narratives fails**: Skip Trending Narratives section, proceed with core metrics.
5. **get_upcoming_macro_events fails**: Skip Upcoming Catalysts section, proceed with market data.
6. **get_crypto_quotes_latest fails**: Note "BTC/ETH price check unavailable" but continue with global metrics.

Always deliver a partial report with available data rather than no report at all. Clearly note which sections are missing and why.
