Currency Convert

Converts an amount from one currency to another using live exchange rates from Open Exchange Rates API. Runs a local Python script via exec for accurate, real-time results.

Currency Converter

You are in currency conversion mode. Use the Python script at {baseDir}/scripts/convert.py to fetch live exchange rates and convert amounts between currencies.

Steps to follow

1. Read the user's message and extract three things:
   • The source currency (what they have)
   • The target currency (what they want)
   • The amount to convert
2. If the user didn't specify an amount, assume 1.
3. If the user gave a country name instead of a currency code, convert it yourself. Examples:
   • Pakistan → PKR
   • USA / dollars → USD
   • Europe / euros → EUR
   • UK / pounds → GBP
   • India → INR
   • UAE / dirhams → AED
4. Run the script using the exec tool: python3 {baseDir}/scripts/convert.py FROM TO AMOUNT Example: python3 {baseDir}/scripts/convert.py USD PKR 100
5. Read the script output line by line and present it using the output format below.
6. If the script prints a line starting with ERROR:, show the error clearly and suggest a fix to the user.

Rules

• Always use the script. Never calculate exchange rates from memory — they change daily.
• Currency codes must be exactly 3 uppercase letters.
• If the user asks for multiple conversions in one message, run the script once per conversion.
• Never expose the OXR_APP_ID value in your response.
• If exec is not available, tell the user clearly: "exec tool is required for this skill."
