setup-kraken

setup-kraken is a skill for Claude Code from MangroveTechnologies/mangrove-agent. It costs 191 tokens per session (1,436 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup guide for connecting your own Kraken account to an agent through a Kraken API key stored on your computer. Kraken is a cryptocurrency exchange, and the guide covers local access with limited permissions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create and connect a least-privilege Kraken API key for trading through the agent, while understanding which connection method to use.
Why use it?
It explains how to connect an exchange account without sending the API key to a Mangrove server or sharing it in chat. It also distinguishes this method from server-managed OAuth login.

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

setup-kraken 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 9d ago.

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.

Setup Kraken (local BYOK)

The agent's job in this skill: walk the user through connecting their own Kraken account so they can trade it through the agent, using their own Kraken API key kept on their machine. This is the local BYOK mode.

The model — say this up front

  • Your key, your machine, direct to Kraken. In this mode the client-side Mangrove SDK connects to api.kraken.com directly with the user's API key. The key never goes to a Mangrove server and is never sent in chat.
  • Kraken is one venue in a multi-venue aggregator. The Mangrove Markets API spans DEX venues (1inch / XPMarket / Jupiter) and CEX (Kraken). This skill covers the Kraken CEX venue via the user's own key.
  • There is a second mode (not this skill): OAuth2. Once enabled, the user authorizes Mangrove and the server submits orders on their behalf via a per-user OAuth2 grant. That is exchange-venue-specific and server-side. If the user asks for "log in with Kraken / don't want to manage a key," that's the OAuth2 path — tell them it's coming and stop; do not improvise it here.

Security primer — give this unprompted (mirror the wallet Stage-4.5 primer)

  1. Never paste your API key or secret into this chat. The agent must never see it. .claude/hooks/block-wallet-secrets.sh guards pasted secrets — don't work around it. The key is entered out-of-band (see Step 3).
  2. Least privilege. Enable only the permissions needed to trade; leave Withdraw Funds OFF. A trading key should never be able to move funds off the exchange.
  3. Real funds. Kraken spot has no testnet — orders execute against real balances. Start with a tiny amount and use validate-only (dry-run) orders before any real fill.
  4. Scope it down. Set an IP allowlist on the key and a key expiry if the user can; consider a sub-account dedicated to agent trading.

Step 1 — Create the API key on Kraken

Direct the user (in their browser, signed in to Kraken):

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.
