Implementation Reference
- binance.py:311-376 (handler)The handler function implementing the 'find_arbitrage_pairs' tool logic. It fetches funding rates and volumes from Binance futures API, filters pairs based on criteria like minimum funding rate, volume, and stability of rate direction, and returns sorted list of opportunities. The @mcp.tool() decorator registers it as an MCP tool.
