Unverified: 1 category
A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
candles ~195
OHLCV candles (intervals 1m 5m 15m 1h 4h 1d). Free keys get BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP and DOGE on Binance for the last 30 days; other venues need Advanced. Max 5,000 rows per call. Rows are oldest first. Without start you get the newest `limit` rows up to a fixed end (end, or now, sent to the API) from a window that is `limit` intervals long, starting on a bucket boundary (whole buckets within 30 days on Free); with start, the first `limit` rows from start. The result's `window` and `note` say which range was used.

funding_rates ~165
Funding rate settlements per exchange (funding_rate, mark_price). Free on the five free symbols for 30 days. Max 5,000 rows per call. Rows are oldest first. Without start you get the newest `limit` rows up to a fixed end (end, or now, sent to the API) from a window that is `limit` x 8 h long (x 1 h on Hyperliquid, clipped to 30 days on Free); with start, the first `limit` rows from start. The result's `window` and `note` say which range was used.

l2_depth_summary ~139
Resting size within each `bps` band of the mid (default [10, 50]) at a moment, per side, in the base asset and in USDT, each band flagged complete or not. window_minutes > 0 adds mean/min/max of that depth over complete one-second samples, with their count. Depth outside the anchor snapshot's known price window is partial: report completeness per band and exclude incomplete samples from full-depth statistics. The day must be downloaded first.

Files already cached with a matching hash are skipped. The 1st of each month is free on every plan; other days need Pro. Uses CANDLEFEED_API_KEY; without it, only the public no-account sample days can be downloaded.

Bid-ask spread statistics for a downloaded day (or an ISO start/end window inside it), sampled every `freq` (100ms to 5min): mean, median, p95 and max spread in bps, the mid range, and the biggest 1-minute mid move. series_points > 0 adds an evenly thinned series (max 500 points).

liquidations ~326
Liquidations bucketed by interval (1m 5m 15m 1h 4h 1d), or tick rows when interval is null. side (the filter), position_side and long/short_liq_usd mean the liquidated position on every exchange. A tick row's side is the exchange's raw value: sell = long liquidated on Binance, Huobi and Hyperliquid, buy = long liquidated on Bybit, long/short on OKX. Builder plan and up. Max 5,000 rows per call. Rows are oldest first. Without start you get the newest `limit` rows up to a fixed end (end, or now, sent to the API) from a window that is `limit` intervals long (24 h for tick rows); with start, the first `limit` rows from start. The result's `window` and `note` say which range was used. Hyperliquid liquidations start 2026-05-28 (node fill data, rebuilt 10 October 2026) and usually lag 3 to 4 hours, longer if Hyperliquid's S3 uploads stall. A dataset that's switched off returns the error code dataset_paused. On Hyperliquid a row sums the liquidated fills sharing a time, side and price: count is rows, not fills.
