# CoinGecko Crypto Price Skill
Fetches crypto market data from the CoinGecko free API (no key required, ~30 req/min rate limit).
## Commands
### Price check (one or more coins)
```bash
python3 scripts/price.py bitcoin ethereum solana
```
Returns: price, 24h change, market cap, volume for each coin.
### Search for a coin by name/ticker
```bash
python3 scripts/search.py "pepe"
```
Returns: matching coin IDs, symbols, and market cap ranks.
### Token lookup by contract address (Solana, Ethereum, etc.)
```bash
python3 scripts/token.py solana <contract_address>
```
Returns: token name, price, 24h change, market cap, liquidity info.
### Trending coins
```bash
python3 scripts/trending.py
```
Returns: top trending coins on CoinGecko.
## Coin IDs
CoinGecko uses slug IDs (e.g., `bitcoin`, `ethereum`, `solana`, `dogecoin`). Use `search.py` to find the correct ID if unsure.
## Rate Limits
Free API: ~30 calls/min. Cache results when doing bulk lookups. Avoid calling in tight loops.
