"coingecko": {
  "url": "https://mcp.api.coingecko.com/mcp",

Add Docs MCP

"coingecko-docs": {
  "url": "https://docs.coingecko.com/mcp",
  "disabled": false
}
Full details: Docs MCP

SDK Prompts (Steering)

Copy the prompt into a Kiro steering file so every generation follows the right SDK patterns.

Prompt for integrating CoinGecko Python SDK

Try It Out

Once everything’s wired up, try asking Kiro:
  • “Using the CoinGecko MCP, show me the top 10 trending pools on Base and export them to CSV.”
  • “Write a Python script using coingecko-sdk that tracks my portfolio and alerts if any coin moves more than 10% in an hour.”
