coingecko

A public service for cryptocurrency data. It lets you find coins and view prices, market rankings, trading volume, details, links, categories, and trending tokens.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search for coins, check one or many current prices, browse coins ranked by market value, inspect a coin, or find currently trending tokens.
Why use it?
It removes the need to collect basic market information from separate coin pages or data sources. It also helps identify a coin before requesting its full details.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

coingecko scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (adapters/coingecko.ts), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 51 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CoinGecko

Overview

Cryptocurrency data aggregator. Public REST API for searching coins, checking prices, market data, and trending tokens.

Workflows

Look up a coin's price and details

  1. searchCoins(query)coins[].id
  2. getCoinDetail(id) → market_data.current_price, description, links, categories

Check current prices for multiple coins

  1. getPrice(ids, vs_currencies){coin_id: {currency: price}}

Browse top coins by market cap

  1. getMarketData(vs_currency)id, current_price, market_cap, total_volume
  2. getCoinDetail(id) → full details for a specific coin

Discover trending coins

  1. getTrending()coins[].item.id, name, symbol, score
  2. getCoinDetail(id) → details for a trending coin

Operations

Operation Intent Key Input Key Output Notes
searchCoins find coins by name/symbol query coins[].id, name, symbol, market_cap_rank entry point for unknown coins
getCoinDetail full coin details id <- searchCoins / getMarketData / getTrending market_data.current_price, description, links, categories use localization=false to reduce payload
getMarketData ranked market overview vs_currency id, current_price, market_cap, total_volume, price_change_24h paginated, entry point for top coins
getTrending trending coins -- coins[].item.id, name, symbol, score no params, entry point
getPrice quick price check ids, vs_currencies {coin_id: {currency: price}} fastest price lookup, batch multiple coins

Quick Start

# Search for a coin
openweb coingecko exec searchCoins '{"query":"bitcoin"}'

# Get detailed coin info
openweb coingecko exec getCoinDetail '{"id":"bitcoin","localization":false,"tickers":false,"community_data":false,"developer_data":false}'

# Get top 20 coins by market cap
openweb coingecko exec getMarketData '{"vs_currency":"usd","per_page":20}'

# Get trending coins
openweb coingecko exec getTrending '{}'

# Get prices for multiple coins
openweb coingecko exec getPrice '{"ids":"bitcoin,ethereum,solana","vs_currencies":"usd","include_24hr_change":true}'

Files

What ships with it

10 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

coingecko is a skill published in the GitHub repository imoonkey/openweb (58 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 541 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
