DefiLlama Prices API Skill

Use this skill to run DefiLlama public price API operations through uxc + OpenAPI.

Reuse the uxc skill for shared execution, auth, and error-handling guidance.

Prerequisites

uxc is installed and available in PATH.

Network access to https://coins.llama.fi.

Access to the curated OpenAPI schema URL:

- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/holon-run/uxc/main/skills/defillama-prices-openapi-skill/references/defillama-prices.openapi.json

Scope

This skill covers a small public read-only price surface on coins.llama.fi:

current price lookups for one or more assets

This skill does not cover:

write operations

protocol or chain overview endpoints from api.llama.fi

yield endpoints from yields.llama.fi

DefiLlama Pro APIs

Authentication

This public skill does not require authentication.

Core Workflow

1. Use the fixed link command by default: - command -v defillama-prices-openapi-cli - If missing, create it: uxc link defillama-prices-openapi-cli https://coins.llama.fi --schema-url https://raw.githubusercontent.com/holon-run/uxc/main/skills/defillama-prices-openapi-skill/references/defillama-prices.openapi.json - defillama-prices-openapi-cli -h

2. Inspect operation schema first: - defillama-prices-openapi-cli get:/prices/current/{coins} -h

3. Prefer narrow read validation before broader reads: - defillama-prices-openapi-cli get:/prices/current/{coins} coins=coingecko:bitcoin searchWidth=4h

Operations

get:/prices/current/{coins}

Guardrails

Keep automation on the JSON output envelope; do not use --text.

Parse stable fields first: ok, kind, protocol, data, error.

Treat this v1 skill as read-only.

This skill only wraps coins.llama.fi; use the separate public analytics or yields skills for other DefiLlama hosts.

defillama-prices-openapi-cli ... is equivalent to uxc https://coins.llama.fi --schema-url ....
