Pilot Service Agents Finance

Public market data — crypto spot prices, FX rates, order books, and macro indicators. Use this skill when: 1. Looking up current crypto spot prices (Coinbase...

Security Scan

The skill's requirements and runtime instructions match its stated purpose (querying pilot-protocol service agents via pilotctl); it is instruction-only, requests no unrelated credentials, and does not perform unexpected actions.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description ask for public market data via the Pilot Protocol. Declared requirements (pilotctl on PATH, pilot-protocol core skill, running daemon joined to network 9, reachable list-agents agent) are consistent with using a P2P service-discovery/query mechanism.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md instructs only to run pilotctl send-message and pilotctl inbox to discover agents, read their /help contracts, and fetch /data or /summary. It does not instruct reading unrelated files, environment variables, or exfiltrating data to unexpected endpoints.

Install Mechanism

No install spec or archive downloads are present (instruction-only). This minimizes install-time risk; the only external dependency is the pilotctl binary which must already be present.

Credentials

The skill declares no required environment variables, no credentials, and no config paths. That is proportional for a read-only public-data skill.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and model invocation is allowed (platform default). The skill does not ask for persistent system-level changes or other skills' credentials.

Assessment

This skill is internally coherent and appears to do what it says: query public market agents over the Pilot Protocol using pilotctl. Before installing, verify you trust the pilotctl binary and pilot-protocol core skill (install from official sources), be aware that joining network 9 exposes a running daemon to a P2P overlay (check firewall/sandbox policies), and avoid sending any private credentials or personal data to service agents (the skill is intended for unauthenticated public feeds). If you need stronger isolation, run pilotctl/daemon in a container or VM. If you require further certainty, review the pilot-protocol project's official docs and the listed agent hostnames to ensure they match your expectations.

Public market data — crypto spot prices, FX rates, order books, and macro indicators.

All agents in this category follow the standard contract described in pilot-service-agents. Send /help to any agent to read its exact filter schema — the table below is a snapshot; the catalogue grows, so always verify with a fresh list-agents query.

What you can expect

• Unauthenticated spot/market feeds from multiple exchanges for cross-checking
• Free FX and historical rate lookups
• Market-cap, volume, order-book snapshots

What NOT to expect

• Trade execution — read-only data only
• Deep historical tick data — upstream APIs limit lookback

Commands (same pattern for every agent in the category)

# Read an agent's filter contract
pilotctl --json send-message <hostname> --data "/help"
pilotctl --json inbox

# Fetch structured data
pilotctl --json send-message <hostname> --data '/data {json filters}'
pilotctl --json inbox

# Natural-language summary (Gemini)
pilotctl --json send-message <hostname> --data '/summary {json filters}'
pilotctl --json inbox

Response shape

send-message returns an ACK envelope immediately ({"ack":"ACK TEXT N bytes", "bytes":N, "target":"<address>", "type":"text"}). The actual agent response arrives a few seconds later and is read with pilotctl --json inbox. Each inbox entry carries the agent's normalised envelope in its data field:

{
  "source": "<hostname>",
  "items":  [...],
  "count":  <int>,
  "total":  <int|null>,
  "page":   <int|null>,
  "next":   <cursor|null>,
  "truncated": <bool>,
  "upstream_url": "<resolved upstream URL>"
}

/help returns plain text. /summary returns a Gemini-generated prose string. Free-text queries also return Gemini prose.

Workflow Example

# 1. Fresh discovery — the catalogue grows, never hard-code
pilotctl --json send-message list-agents --data '/data {"category":"finance","limit":20}'
pilotctl --json inbox

# 2. Read the contract of a specific agent
pilotctl --json send-message coingecko-markets-simple --data '/help'
pilotctl --json inbox

# 3. Query it
pilotctl --json send-message coingecko-markets-simple --data '/data {"vs_currency":"usd","per_page":5}'
pilotctl --json inbox

Dependencies

Requires the pilot-protocol core skill, the pilot-service-agents skill (for the general discovery flow), pilotctl on PATH, and a running daemon joined to network 9.
