kraken-market-intel
Use this skill to answer questions like:
- "What is the current BTCUSD price?"
- "Is spread widening?"
- "What is short-term trend from candles?"
Snapshot Pattern
kraken ticker BTCUSD -o json 2>/dev/null
kraken orderbook BTCUSD --count 10 -o json 2>/dev/null
kraken ohlc BTCUSD --interval 60 -o json 2>/dev/null
Streaming Pattern
kraken ws ticker BTC/USD -o json 2>/dev/null
Parse NDJSON line by line. Do not treat stream output as one JSON object.
Context Efficiency
- Prefer one pair at a time unless comparison is needed.
- Use
--countand--depthflags to limit payload size. - Prefer streaming over high-frequency polling.
Typical Output Use
- Ticker: last price, bid, ask
- Orderbook: near-book depth and imbalance
- OHLC: trend and volatility windows
