Try It Out

Once everything’s wired up, try asking Claude Code:
  • “Using the CoinGecko MCP, show me the top 10 trending pools on Base and export them to CSV.”
  • “What parameters does /coins/markets accept? Write a Python function that fetches the top 100 coins by market cap.”
  • “Write a TypeScript script that tracks my portfolio and alerts if any coin moves more than 10% in an hour.”
