Type-safe price checks in Pydantic AI

Call `get_price` and let Pydantic AI validate the output against your models at runtime. If the API returns a malformed price, the agent catches it before it causes a logic error. This prevents silent failures when the market data format shifts. You get high-confidence data for every trading calculation your agent performs.

Validated historical data for Pydantic AI

Request OHLCV data via `get_historical_hourly` and ensure every field matches your schema. Your agent rejects any response that doesn't fit your strict type definitions. This approach stops hallucinations regarding historical price points. Your logic remains grounded in verified, type-checked data.

Structured news extraction for Pydantic AI

Pull news items with `get_latest_news` and cast them directly into your Pydantic models. You define the structure, and the agent enforces it for every article fetched. This makes your agent's news processing consistent and reliable. You avoid dealing with inconsistent API responses by using built-in validation.
