This skill provides practical, developer-focused guidance for using the CoinGecko API to access cryptocurrency market data. It consolidates endpoint usage, common request patterns, and code examples so you can integrate price feeds, market cap, volume, and historical data quickly. The content is organized by topic for fast lookup during development.
The skill inspects and summarizes CoinGecko endpoints and parameters, showing how to call REST endpoints, handle pagination, and parse JSON responses. It highlights authentication nuances (CoinGecko is largely public), rate limits, and typical request/response shapes for coins, markets, exchanges, contracts, NFTs, and historical data. Use the references to view endpoint-specific examples and response fields for each feature.
Do I need an API key to use CoinGecko?
No API key is required for most public endpoints, but you must respect rate limits and use caching to avoid request throttling.
How do I get reliable coin identifiers?
Use CoinGecko's coin list endpoint to map symbols to canonical CoinGecko IDs and store those IDs for subsequent queries.
