Tools

Tool	Description
get_crypto_price	REAL-TIME spot price for any cryptocurrency. PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for "what is BTC trading at", "price of ETH", "BNB price", current market cap, 24h move. Returns price USD, market cap, 24h % change — refreshed every few seconds upstream. Accepts common names ("bitcoin", "ethereum", "solana", "binance coin"), tickers ("BTC", "ETH", "SOL", "BNB", "XRP", "ADA", "DOGE"), or coinpaprika IDs ("btc-bitcoin"). Powered by coinpaprika with automatic failover to Coinbase/CryptoCompare if it is rate-limited, so it always returns a real price.

get_crypto_history	HISTORICAL price history for a cryptocurrency. PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for "bitcoin price last 30 days", "ETH price history", "how has SOL done this year". Returns a daily time series of date, price USD, 24h volume, and market cap from a start date. Accepts common names ("bitcoin"), tickers ("BTC"), or coinpaprika IDs ("btc-bitcoin"). Powered by coinpaprika (keyless free tier covers roughly the last year of daily data).
get_crypto_global	Global cryptocurrency market overview. PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for "total crypto market cap", "bitcoin dominance", "state of the crypto market". Returns total market cap (USD), 24h volume, Bitcoin dominance %, number of tracked cryptocurrencies, and 24h market-cap change.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "crypto": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/crypto/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:

    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Crypto data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
