Whether you are tracking market momentum or building an automated trading strategy, your agent acts as a dedicated quantitative analyst through natural conversation.

Frequently asked questions about the CoinAPI MCP Server
How do I format the symbol ID to get specific exchange data?
CoinAPI uses a specific format: EXCHANGE_TYPE_BASE_QUOTE. For example, to get Bitcoin to USD on Bitstamp, use BITSTAMP_SPOT_BTC_USD. You can use the list_symbols tool to find exact identifiers.
Can I get the current price of Ethereum in Euros?
Yes! Use the get_specific_rate tool. Set asset_id_base to 'ETH' and asset_id_quote to 'EUR'. This will return the real-time average conversion rate.
What timeframes are available for OHLCV data?
The get_ohlcv tool supports various periods via the period_id parameter, such as 1MIN, 1HRS, 1DAY, 1MTH, etc. It defaults to 1DAY.
