Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| whale_tradesA | Live whale trades merged across 15 CEX venues plus on-chain DEX swaps (Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum), newest first, capped at 50 rows. Keyless calls get the free shape (BTC/USD + $1M+ CEX trades live, other pairs delayed 15 min, DEX swaps $250K+); a paid developer plan lifts the shape to every pair with no delay (still 50 rows here, full depth on the REST API). Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| whale_tapeA | Deprecated alias for whale_trades, kept so existing clients keep working. Prefer whale_trades. Live whale trades merged across 15 CEX venues plus on-chain DEX swaps (Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum), newest first, capped at 50 rows. Keyless calls get the free shape (BTC/USD + $1M+ CEX trades live, other pairs delayed 15 min, DEX swaps $250K+); a paid developer plan lifts the shape to every pair with no delay (still 50 rows here, full depth on the REST API). Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| whale_radarA | Smart Money Radar: which coins have unusual whale flow right now, across 1h, 4h and 24h windows. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| flag_outcomesB | Recently fired signal-ledger flags with fire-time price and later price outcomes, logged live and never backfilled. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| whale_flowA | Hourly buy and sell USD flow buckets for one coin, CEX and DEX split, over a rolling window. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| liquidationsB | Recent liquidation trades for a pair with the long and short breakdown. A long is force-closed by selling, so sell-side events are long liquidations. long_liquidations and short_liquidations are event COUNTS; long_usd and short_usd carry the dollar split. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| market_snapshotA | One-call market state for a pair: last price, 24h stats, average funding rate, open interest and recent liquidation totals across 15 exchanges. Keyless calls cover the free pairs; a paid developer plan covers every streamed pair. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| crypto_newsA | Recent crypto headlines with a pre-computed sentiment score (-100 to +100) for one coin plus the macro picture. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| market_historyA | Daily history: funding rate, open interest, price and liquidation totals for one pair (archived since 2026-03-18), or daily whale buy/sell flow for one coin (since 2026-06-18). Keyless calls cover 30 days; a paid developer plan reaches the full archive. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| market_extremesA | Which pairs sit at a record or in their own top or bottom 5 percent for funding, open interest or liquidations, each vs that pair's own recorded history, with next-day outcome stats for past occurrences where enough events exist. Daily scan across every recorded pair. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| trade_contextA | The pre-trade context blob in one call: price, cross-venue funding with time-to-next-funding and carry arithmetic (optional position_usd), open interest, whale flow vs the coin's own baseline, and recent visible liquidations, on ANY streamed pair keyless. compact: true returns the one-line composed answer (about 30 tokens). A paid developer plan adds the percentile judgment vs the pair's own recorded days, whale USD magnitudes, full 24h stats and the crowding score. Strictly descriptive: state plus recorded history, no advice. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| market_screenerA | Screen every recorded pair in one call: filter by funding_band / oi_band (vs each pair's OWN recorded days: record high, top 5%, top 25%, typical, bottom 25%, bottom 5%, record low), minimum whale-flow multiple vs the coin's own average, and radar-unusual. The discovery call. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| whale_contextA | Per-coin whale flow vs that coin's OWN logged history: multiple of its daily average, N-day-high flags, buy share now vs 7d. The "is this unusual for THIS coin" call; coin accepts a comma-separated list for portfolio briefs (single coin returns a flat object; a list returns {coins:[...]}). Keyless returns multiples and records (USD magnitudes need an active developer plan). Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| market_overviewA | One-call market scan: totals (volume, OI, liquidations, mcap), 24h whale net flow, BTC risk regime (SMA20/50 + breadth), and the top rows by volume. Pass coin to get one symbol's row directly (no paging needed). Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| funding_matrixA | Per-venue funding rates for one pair with predicted next rate and payout time where the venue provides it. Keyless on any streamed pair. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| squeeze_scoreA | Fused 0-100 crowding read per pair (funding + long/short accounts + taker imbalance + OI trend) with the overexposed side. Descriptive, not a trade signal. Needs a paid developer plan. Descriptive market data only. More depth on a developer plan: coinlobster.com/developers?utm_source=mcp&utm_medium=agent |
| liq_zonesA | Projected liquidation level book for one pair (modeled from leverage assumptions - clearly labeled as a projection, not executed trades). Keyless serves the free pairs without cascade chains; an active developer plan serves any pair with the full snapshot. Descriptive market data only.

TDQS
Scored across 17 tools
Each tool targets a distinct data slice (trades, radar, flow, liquidations, funding, news, history, extremes, context, screener, overview, squeeze, zones), but whale_tape is a deprecated alias of whale_trades creating one overlap, and trade_context vs market_snapshot could confuse at the margins. Overall boundaries are clear.
Names follow a consistent noun_phrase pattern with clear domain prefixes (whale_, market_, funding_, liq_, etc.). Even the deprecated alias fits the pattern, and no camelCase or mixed verb styles appear.
17 tools is on the heavier side but justified for a broad market-data server covering trades, flow, liquidations, funding, history, news, and screening. The set remains navigable due to consistent naming, though a few tools could potentially be merged without loss.
The surface covers the core descriptive crypto data domain well: live trades, unusual flow, historical flows, funding, OI, liquidations, news, context, and screening. Minor gaps include lack of order-book depth or trade-level details beyond the top 50 rows, but nothing that would cripple typical agent workflows.
