How to Help Users Find Crypto Skills

Step 1: Identify the User's Need

When a user asks for crypto-related help, identify:

1. Asset type — BTC, ETH, SOL, altcoins, stablecoins, NFTs
2. Action — trading, analyzing, monitoring, automating, staking, bridging
3. Platform — CEX (Binance, OKX, Coinbase) or DEX (Uniswap, Jupiter, dYdX)
4. Data need — price feeds, on-chain data, sentiment, news

Step 2: Search Using Crypto-Specific Queries

Run the find command with targeted keywords:

npx skills find [query]

Recommended query mapping:

Step 3: Present Options to the User

When relevant skills are found, present them with:

1. Skill name and what it does
2. Supported exchanges or chains (if applicable)
3. The install command

Tips for Effective Crypto Searches

1. Be exchange-specific: binance futures returns better results than just trading
2. Include the chain: solana swap or ethereum defi narrows results effectively
3. Try abbreviations: btc, eth, sol often work as well as full names
4. Check these common sources for crypto skills:
• ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills
• okx-trade-mcp
• Exchange-specific repos (e.g. binance-labs/agent-skills)

When No Crypto Skills Are Found

If no relevant skill exists:

1. Acknowledge that no existing skill was found
2. Offer to help directly — e.g., fetch price data via CoinGecko API, analyze a wallet address, or explain a DeFi protocol
3. Suggest creating a custom skill:

I searched for skills related to "[query]" but didn't find any matches.
I can still help you directly — for example, I can pull live price data or
walk you through a trade manually.

If you need this often, you can scaffold your own skill:
npx skills init my-crypto-skill

Security Reminders

When installing any crypto-related skill, remind the user to:

• Never share private keys or seed phrases with any skill
• Use API keys with trade-only permissions (no withdrawal access) when connecting to exchanges
• Test with small amounts before automating real trades
• Verify the skill source on GitHub before installing
