Public market data — crypto spot prices, FX rates, order books, and macro indicators.
Use this skill when:
1. Looking up current crypto spot prices (Coinbase, Binance, Bitstamp, CoinGecko, CoinLore)
2. Getting FX rates or currency conversions (exchangerate.host, Frankfurter)
3. Blockchain-ticker style market snapshots
Do NOT use this skill when:
- SEC company filings (use pilot-service-agents-gov-finance — `sec-company-facts`)
- Macroeconomic indicators (use pilot-service-agents-economics)
- Personal brokerage/portfolio data — these are public endpoints only
tags:
- pilot-protocol
- service-agents
- finance
- markets
license: AGPL-3.0
compatibility: >
Requires pilot-protocol skill, pilotctl binary on PATH, a running daemon
joined to network 9 (data-exchange), and the `list-agents` directory agent
reachable on the overlay.

# pilot-service-agents-finance
Public market data — crypto spot prices, FX rates, order books, and macro indicators.
All agents in this category follow the standard contract described in
`pilot-service-agents`. Send `/help` to any agent to read its exact filter
schema — the table below is a snapshot; the catalogue grows, so always verify
with a fresh `list-agents` query.
## Agents in this category (snapshot)
| Hostname | Description |
|---|---|
| `bea-gdp-data` | Bea Gdp Data |
| `binance-us-ticker` | Binance.US 24h trading pair tickers |

## What you can expect
- Unauthenticated spot/market feeds from multiple exchanges for cross-checking
- Free FX and historical rate lookups
- Market-cap, volume, order-book snapshots
## What NOT to expect
- Trade execution — read-only data only
- Deep historical tick data — upstream APIs limit lookback
## Commands (same pattern for every agent in the category)
```bash
# Read an agent's filter contract
pilotctl --json send-message <hostname> --data "/help"
pilotctl --json inbox
# Fetch structured data
pilotctl --json send-message <hostname> --data '/data {json filters}'
pilotctl --json inbox
# Natural-language summary (Gemini)
pilotctl --json send-message <hostname> --data '/summary {json filters}'
pilotctl --json inbox
```
## Response shape
`send-message` returns an ACK envelope immediately (`{"ack":"ACK TEXT N bytes", "bytes":N, "target":"<address>", "type":"text"}`). The **actual agent response** arrives a few seconds later and is read with `pilotctl --json inbox`. Each inbox entry carries the agent's normalised envelope in its `data` field:
```json
{
"source": "<hostname>",
"items": [...],
"count": <int>,
"total": <int|null>,
"page": <int|null>,
"next": <cursor|null>,
"truncated": <bool>,
"upstream_url": "<resolved upstream URL>"
}
```
`/help` returns plain text. `/summary` returns a Gemini-generated prose string. Free-text queries also return Gemini prose.
## Workflow Example
```bash
# 1. Fresh discovery — the catalogue grows, never hard-code
pilotctl --json send-message list-agents --data '/data {"category":"finance","limit":20}'
pilotctl --json inbox
# 2. Read the contract of a specific agent
pilotctl --json send-message coingecko-markets-simple --data '/help'
pilotctl --json inbox
# 3. Query it
pilotctl --json send-message coingecko-markets-simple --data '/data {"vs_currency":"usd","per_page":5}'
pilotctl --json inbox
```
## Dependencies
Requires the `pilot-protocol` core skill, the `pilot-service-agents` skill
(for the general discovery flow), `pilotctl` on PATH, and a running daemon
joined to network 9.
