getCriptoPrice
This skill provides a simple, reliable way to fetch a crypto spot price in USD.
What it does
- Input: a crypto asset symbol (e.g.,
BTC) or CoinGecko id (e.g., bitcoin) - Output: JSON with the normalized price payload
How to run (script)
Use the bundled script:
bash
node scripts/getCriptoPrice.mjs BTC
# or
node scripts/getCriptoPrice.mjs bitcoin
Output format
json
{
"ok": true,
"asset": {
"input": "BTC",
"coingecko_id": "bitcoin",
"symbol": "btc",
"name": "Bitcoin"
},
"currency": "usd",
"price": 12345.67,
"ts": "2026-02-14T03:03:00.000Z",
"source": "coingecko"

Notes
- Uses CoinGecko's public endpoints; no API key required.
- If you later want higher rate limits/latency guarantees, swap the data source (e.g., Coinbase, Kraken, Binance) and keep the same output schema.
