get_coin_tickers

Find where to buy or sell a specific cryptocurrency by listing its exchange tickers across multiple venues, including price, volume, bid-ask spread, and trust scores.

Instructions

List exchange tickers (trading pairs) for a single coin across many venues.

Use to answer "where can I buy/sell X?" or "which exchanges have the best liquidity for X?" Each ticker includes price, volume, bid-ask spread, converted last/volume in BTC/ETH/USD, and CoinGecko's trust score.

Args: coin_id: CoinGecko coin ID. exchange_ids: Optional comma-separated exchange IDs to filter by (CoinGecko exchange IDs, see list_exchanges_directory). page: Pagination page (each page is up to 100 tickers). order: Sort order. Default ranks by liquidity trust score.

Returns: Object with name (coin name) and tickers (array of ticker objects).

Note: coin_id is validated against ^[a-z0-9][a-z0-9._-]{0,127}$.

Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Describes return data (price, volume, spread, etc.), pagination, and ordering, but no annotations are provided so some behavioral aspects like rate limits are missing.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Succinct top line, followed by usage examples, structured args/returns/note. No unnecessary information.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Covers all parameters, return structure, and validation note. No output schema, but description provides sufficient context for an agent.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Despite 0% schema coverage, the description explains every parameter, including default values, validation, and relationship to other tools.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Clearly states it lists exchange tickers for a single coin across many venues, with specific use cases and data included.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Provides clear when-to-use guidance with example questions, but does not explicitly mention when not to use or alternatives.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
