# CoinGecko Skill (Crypto Prices, Sentiment, News)
## When to use
Trigger this skill on any crypto-related request:
- A coin symbol (BTC, ETH, SOL, ONDO, etc.) or CoinGecko ID (`bitcoin`, `ondo-finance`).
- Phrases like "is X overbought," "what's the sentiment on Y," "any recent news on Z."
- Pre-trade confluence check on a crypto thesis (AGENTS.md §4 requires sentiment + technicals).
- Multi-coin comparison: "BTC vs ETH vs SOL momentum."
Do NOT use this skill for:
- US equities (Massive + `us-news`).
- KLSE (the three klse-* skills).
- Forex (Massive forex endpoints).
## Why this exists
Massive MCP covers crypto prices and aggregates, but **not**:
- Community sentiment votes (CoinGecko's % up/down)
- Developer activity (GitHub stars, commits, PRs — a real moat-vs-deadcoin signal)
- Per-coin news headlines (Massive's news/sentiment is US-equity focused)
- Smaller alts that may not be in Massive's universe
CoinGecko fills these gaps with a generous free tier (no key required, ~10-30 req/min).
## Setup — optional
Works without a key. If you want higher rate limits, get a free Demo API key (no credit card) at https://www.coingecko.com/en/api/pricing and add to `.claude/skills/crypto-coingecko/.env`:
```
COINGECKO_API_KEY=your-demo-or-pro-key
```
The script auto-loads the .env if present. **Without a key**, it uses the public endpoint — which has lower rate limits but works fine for ad-hoc research.
## Subcommands
The skill ships a single Python script `cg.py` with t
