Server tool list (15)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| crypto_price | Live USD price and 24 h change for up to 30 crypto assets on any chain — by symbol, CoinGecko id, contract or mint address. Resolves each asset (BTC, "coingecko:ethereum", "base:0x…", a bare 0x address with chain, or a Solana mint) and prices it from DefiLlama's aggregated oracle (confidence score included). Symbols resolve against the top 1,000 coins by market cap first, so "USDC" means the real one; ambiguous symbols list the alternatives. When to use: For current prices by symbol on any chain; for Solana mints by address use price (on the MAD Synapse · Wallets & Risk server, https://agent.maddegen.art/hub/mcp/risk); for history use price_history. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| price_history | Historical USD prices for any crypto asset (hourly or daily, up to 365 days) with return, high/low, max drawdown and annualized volatility. Same asset resolution as crypto_price. Returns the series plus stats computed from it: total return, high/low with dates, max drawdown, and annualized volatility from log returns. When to use: For past prices and drawdowns; for the current price (on the MAD Synapse · Wallets & Risk server, https://agent.maddegen.art/hub/mcp/risk) use crypto_price. Price: $0.002 per call (10 free/day; after that a payment-required result lists x402 options). Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| defi_rankings | Top DeFi protocols by TVL (or 1 d / 7 d TVL change), filterable by chain and category — lending, DEX, liquid staking, bridges, perps… From DefiLlama's full protocol list (~6,000 protocols). Each row: TVL, TVL on the requested chain, 1 h/1 d/7 d change, market cap, category, chains, site. Use for "biggest lending protocols on Base" or "fastest growing DEXes this week". When to use: To rank protocols; for one protocol in depth use defi_protocol. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| defi_protocol | One DeFi protocol in depth: TVL by chain, TVL trend, fees and revenue (24 h/7 d/30 d), market cap, audits, links. Look up by name or DefiLlama slug ("aave", "Uniswap", "jupiter"). Combines DefiLlama's protocol list with its fees/revenue summaries. Fuzzy name matches return the best match plus close alternatives. Price: $0.002 per call (10 free/day; after that a payment-required result lists x402 options). Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| chain_tvl | Total value locked on every blockchain right now, ranked — or one chain's daily TVL history. DefiLlama chain TVL. Without "chain": ranking of all chains with token symbol. With "chain": daily TVL history for up to 365 days plus 7 d / 30 d / 90 d change. When to use: For chain-level TVL; for protocols use defi_rankings. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| yield_pools | Search ~19,000 DeFi yield pools across all chains: filter by chain, protocol, token, stablecoin-only, min TVL; sort by APY or TVL. Base vs reward APY, 30 d mean, IL risk. DefiLlama yields data, refreshed every 15 minutes. Shows APY split into base (organic fees/interest) and reward (token emissions), the 30-day mean APY so an agent can spot unsustainable spikes, impermanent-loss risk, exposure (single/multi) and DefiLlama's up/down prediction. Price: $0.003 per call (10 free/day; after that a payment-required result lists x402 options). Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| stablecoins | Every stablecoin's circulating supply, 1 d/7 d/30 d supply change, current price and peg deviation — spot depegs and mint/burn flows. DefiLlama stablecoin data across all chains. Filter by symbol or peg type. peg_deviation_pct is measured against the peg (USD, EUR…) using DefiLlama's price. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| dex_volumes | DEX trading volume in the last 24 h / 7 d / 30 d — all chains or one — with the top DEXes and their share and change. DefiLlama DEX overview. Optionally scoped to one chain. Includes perps with type=perps (derivatives volume) or aggregators. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |

"fees" = what users paid; "revenue" = what the protocol kept. Ranked, with day-over-day change. Price: $0.002 per call (10 free/day; after that a payment-required result lists x402 options). Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| gas_now | What a transaction costs right now on 17 EVM chains, Solana and Bitcoin — gwei/priority fee and the USD cost of a transfer and a swap on each. EVM: base fee + priority fee from the latest block (eth_feeHistory), USD cost of a 21,000-gas transfer and a ~150,000-gas swap (L2s shown before their L1 data fee). Solana: recent prioritization-fee percentiles. Bitcoin: mempool.space recommended sat/vB with USD for a typical 140 vB transaction. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| cex_ticker | Live bid/ask/last, 24 h change, volume and range for a pair on Kraken, Coinbase and OKX side by side — with the cross-venue spread. Queries each venue's public ticker in parallel. OKX quotes in USDT when USD is asked for. The cross-venue spread shows arbitrage gaps and which venue is off. When to use: For top-of-book prices; for how much size the book can absorb use orderbook_depth. Price: $0.001 per call (10 free/day; after that a payment-required result lists x402 options). Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
| orderbook_depth | How much size a market can take: bid/ask depth within ±0.1/0.5/1/2/5%, spread, and the slippage of a $10k/$100k/$1M market order on Kraken, Coinbase or OKX. Pulls the full public L2 book and walks it. Use before sizing an order or comparing venue liquidity. slippage is vs. mid price, in basis points; null means the fetched book was too thin for that size.

Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged). |
