An installable Agent Skill that teaches an AI agent to use CryptoDataAPI — live crypto market data, market regimes, funding & open interest, liquidations, whale activity, dealer gamma, on-chain flows, a quant risk engine, and historical backtesting, all behind one API key.
Live crypto market data and analysis via CryptoDataAPI (cryptodataapi.com) — market regimes, funding, open interest, liquidations, whale activity, dealer gamma, on-chain flows, sentiment, a quant risk engine, and historical backtesting. Use when the user wants live crypto market data, to read the market regime, analyze derivatives, build/size/evaluate a trading strategy, or backtest against historical snapshots.
The skill ships a lean SKILL.md playbook plus progressive-disclosure reference files (full endpoint map, worked workflows, tiers/limits) that the agent loads only when it needs them.
