What it does for your agent

crypto_snapshot returns the current spot price for a single crypto pair plus its 24-hour change and volume. Use it as a pricing checkpoint mid-task — when an agent needs to verify current price levels, compare assets, or tag a market regime — without pulling the full klines history. crypto_snapshot({ ticker }) → price, dayChange, dayChangePercent, volume24h, time. That’s it.

Notes

For historical bars, use crypto_historical_klines — it returns OHLCV candles at 1h, 4h, 1d, or 1w intervals. crypto_snapshot is only for “right now”.

Spot markets only. Futures, perpetuals, funding rates, and open interest are not exposed by this tool.

Not trading-grade real-time. It can lag the latest market print by up to 30 seconds. Don’t trade on it.
