What this server can do

31 functions, named and described by the server itself. Parameter names are shown because they say more about what a function does than its name usually does.

getCapabilities(rationale): Get the server's capabilities, supported workflow patterns, validation rules and recommended tool sequences. Use FIRST to onboard as an agent, or when asked 'what can this server do', 'how should I chain these tools', 'what are the parameter rules'. This describes the MCP server itself, not crypto data. Required: rationale.
getChangelogIDs(page, limit, rationale): Get the ids of recent changes to CoinPaprika's coin and exchange listings (additions, renames, delistings) for syncing a local dataset. Use for 'what changed recently', 'new or delisted coins', 'listing changelog'. Read-only; page (default 1) and limit (default 50) paginate the feed. Requires your own Starter+ CoinPaprika key; without one this hosted server returns a plan-required message. Required: rationale.
getCoinById(coinId, rationale): Get descriptive project information about a coin: description, links, team and tags. Use for 'tell me about Uniswap', 'what is this project'. Does NOT include price; for price and market cap use getTickersById. Read-only; coinId is a canonical id (resolve with resolveId). No API key required. Required: coinId, rationale.
getCoinEvents(limit, coinId, rationale): Get the timeline of events for a coin (launches, partnerships, hard forks, conference talks) with dates and descriptions. Use for 'what is happening with X', 'upcoming events for Ethereum', 'X roadmap events'. For prices use getTickersById. Read-only; coinId is a canonical id, limit caps results. No API key required. Required: coinId, rationale.
getCoinExchanges(limit, coinId, rationale): List the exchanges that LIST a specific coin (venue names only). Use for 'which exchanges list X', 'is X on Coinbase', 'where is X listed'. For where to BUY with per-market price and volume use getCoinMarkets; for the live price use getTickersById. Read-only; coinId is a canonical id, limit caps results. No API key required. Required: coinId, rationale.
getCoinMarkets(limit, coinId, quotes, rationale): Get the specific markets and trading pairs where a coin trades, with per-market price and 24h volume. Use for 'where can I buy X', 'X price on Binance', 'best market for X'. For just the list of exchange names use getCoinExchanges. Read-only; coinId is a canonical id, quotes sets quote currencies, limit caps results. No API key required. Required: coinId, rationale.
getCoinOHLCVHistorical(end, limit, quote, start, coinId, interval, rationale): Get OHLC candles (open, high, low, close, volume) for a coin. Use for 'daily chart last month', 'hourly candles since Jan 1'. For one past price use getTickersHistoricalById; for the latest candle use getCoinOHLCVLatest. Read-only. Params: coinId (required) canonical id like 'btc-bitcoin' (resolve via resolveId); start (required) and end (optional, default now) accept 'yyyy-mm-dd' or ISO 8601; interval (optional, default '24h'): one of '5m', '15m', '30m', '1h', '6h', '12h', '24h'; quote (optional, default 'usd'); limit (optional, default 50, max 250) caps candles. Requires a Starter+ plan (COINPAPRIKA_API_KEY). Required: coinId, start, rationale.
getCoinOHLCVLatest(quote, coinId, rationale): Get the latest full-day OHLC candle (open, high, low, close and volume) for a coin. Use for 'yesterday's candle for BTC'. For the live spot price use getTickersById. Read-only; coinId must be a canonical id (resolve a bare symbol with resolveId first), quote defaults to usd. No API key required. Required: coinId, rationale.
getCoinOHLCVToday(quote, coinId, rationale): Get today's in-progress OHLC candle for a coin. Use for 'today's high and low for ETH'. For the current spot price use getTickersById; for past candles use getCoinOHLCVHistorical. Read-only; coinId is a canonical id (resolve with resolveId). No API key required. Required: coinId, rationale.
getCoins(limit, rationale): List all available coins with id, name, symbol and rank. Use to discover coins or map a name to an id. Does NOT include prices; for prices use getTickers or getTickersById. Read-only; limit caps the number of coins returned. No API key required. Required: rationale.
getContracts(limit, rationale, platformId): List the token contract addresses tracked on one platform as a list, mapping each contract to its CoinPaprika coin id. Use for 'contracts on ethereum', 'what tokens does BSC have', or to map a contract address to a coin id. Find the platformId first with getPlatforms; for one contract's live price use getTickerByContract, and for its history use getHistoricalTickerByContract. Read-only. Params: platformId (required) is a platform id such as 'eth-ethereum' or 'bsc-binance-smart-chain'; limit (optional, default 50, max 250) caps how many contracts return. An unknown platformId returns an error. No API key required. Required: platformId, rationale.
getExchangeByID(quotes, rationale, exchangeId): Get details for a specific exchange: 24h volume, market count, trust score, links and fiat support. Use for 'tell me about Binance', 'Coinbase exchange stats', 'is X a trustworthy exchange'. For the pairs traded there use getExchangeMarkets; find the exchange id first with search or getExchanges. Read-only; exchangeId is an exchange id such as binance. No API key required. Required: exchangeId, rationale.
getExchangeMarkets(limit, quotes, rationale, exchangeId): List the trading pairs (markets) on one exchange as a list, each with the pair, base and quote coin ids, latest price, 24h volume and category. Use for 'what pairs trade on Binance', 'markets on Kraken', 'BTC pairs on Coinbase'. For exchange-level stats such as trust score use getExchangeByID; find the exchangeId first with getExchanges. Read-only. Params: exchangeId (required) is an exchange id such as 'binance'; quotes (optional, default 'usd') is a comma-separated list of quote currencies for the figures, e.g. 'usd,btc'; limit (optional, default 50, max 250) caps how many markets return. No API key required. Required: exchangeId, rationale.
getExchanges(limit, quotes, rationale): List exchanges tracked by CoinPaprika as a list ranked by rank, each with id, name, trust score, active market count and 24h volume. Use for 'top exchanges by volume', 'biggest crypto exchanges', or to find an exchangeId before calling getExchangeByID. For one exchange's full stats use getExchangeByID; for its trading pairs use getExchangeMarkets. Read-only. Params: quotes (optional, default 'usd') is a comma-separated list of quote currencies for the volume figures, for example 'usd,btc'; limit (optional, default 50, max 250) caps how many exchanges return. No API key required. Required: rationale.
getGlobal(rationale): Get a global crypto market overview: total market cap, total 24h volume, Bitcoin dominance, and market-wide 24h change. Use for 'how is the crypto market doing', 'total market cap', 'BTC dominance'. For a single coin's price use getTickersById. Read-only; takes no parameters and needs no API key. Required: rationale.
getHistoricalTickerByContract(end, limit, quote, start, interval, rationale, platformId, contractAddress): Get a token's price and market history by its contract address, as a time series. Use for 'token price on 2024-01-01 by address', 'hourly history for a contract'. For its current price use getTickerByContract; by coin id use getTickersHistoricalById. Read-only. Params: platformId (required) chain id like 'eth-ethereum'; contractAddress (required) token address; start (required) and end (optional, default now) accept 'yyyy-mm-dd' or ISO 8601; interval (optional, default '5m'); quote (optional, default 'usd'); limit (optional, default 50, max 250) caps points. Requires a Starter+ plan (COINPAPRIKA_API_KEY). Required: platformId, contractAddress, start, rationale.
getMappings(dti, isin, coingecko, rationale, coinpaprika, coinmarketcap, cryptocompare): Get mappings between CoinPaprika ids and external or legacy identifiers (CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko, CryptoCompare, ISIN, DTI) so you can reconcile ids across systems. Use for 'map CoinPaprika ids to X', 'id crosswalk', 'external id mapping'. Read-only; every parameter is an optional filter for that provider's id, and supplying more than one narrows the result. Requires your own Business-plan CoinPaprika key; without one this hosted server returns a plan-required message. Required: rationale.
getPeopleById(personId, rationale): Get the profile of one person in crypto by id: name, description or bio, teams_count, positions held, and linked projects plus social and code accounts. Use for 'who is Vitalik Buterin', 'background on Charlie Lee', 'projects tied to this founder'. Find the personId first with search or resolveId using type 'people'; this tool needs the exact id, not a name. Read-only. Params: personId (required) is a canonical person id such as 'vitalik-buterin' or 'satoshi-nakamoto'; an unknown id returns not found. No API key required. Required: personId, rationale.
getPlatforms(limit, rationale): List the smart-contract platforms (blockchains such as ethereum, bnb, polygon) for which CoinPaprika indexes token contracts. Use for 'which chains are supported for contract lookups', 'list contract platforms', or to pick a platform id before calling getContracts. Read-only; limit caps results. No API key required. Required: rationale.
getTagById(tagId, rationale, additionalFields): Get details for one CoinPaprika tag (a category such as 'defi' or 'stablecoin'): its id, name, description, coin_counter, ico_counter, and optionally the coins and ICOs grouped under it. Use for 'what coins are in the defi tag', 'show the stablecoin category', 'tokens tagged ai'. To list every tag or find a tagId first use getTags. Read-only. Params: tagId (required) is a tag id from getTags such as 'defi'; additionalFields (optional, default none) is a comma-separated list of extra sections, valid values 'coins' and 'icos' (example 'coins,icos'). An unknown tagId returns an error. No API key required. Required: tagId, rationale.
getTags(limit, rationale, additionalFields): List all CoinPaprika tags (categories such as 'defi', 'stablecoin', 'memecoin', 'ai') used to group coins, returned as a list with each tag's id, name, coin_counter and ico_counter. Use for 'what crypto categories exist', 'list market sectors', or to find a tagId before calling getTagById. For the coins inside one tag use getTagById. Read-only. Params: additionalFields (optional, default none) is a comma-separated list of extra sections per tag, valid values 'coins' and 'icos' (example 'coins,icos'; omit for just summaries); limit (optional, default 50, max 250) caps how many tags return. No API key required. Required: rationale.
getTickerByContract(rationale, platformId, contractAddress): Get the current price and market data of a token by its contract address (for on-chain and DeFi tokens). Use when you have a contract address (0x...) rather than a name. For history use getHistoricalTickerByContract. Read-only; platformId is the chain (e.g. eth-ethereum) and contractAddress the token address. No API key required. Required: platformId, contractAddress, rationale.
getTickers(limit, quotes, rationale): Get current prices, market caps and 24h changes for the top cryptocurrencies ranked by market cap. Use for 'top 5 coins', 'top crypto today', 'biggest cryptocurrencies', or a market snapshot. For one specific coin use getTickersById. Read-only; quotes sets the quote currencies (default USD), limit caps results. No API key required. Required: rationale.
getTickersById(coinId, quotes, rationale): Get the current price, market cap, 24h change and volume of one cryptocurrency in USD or another quote currency. Use for 'what is the price of X', 'how much is Bitcoin worth', 'BTC to USD', 'ETH price now'. For past prices use getTickersHistoricalById. Read-only; coinId is a canonical id (resolve a bare symbol with resolveId first), quotes sets the quote currency (default USD). No API key required. Required: coinId, rationale.
getTickersHistoricalById(end, limit, quote, start, coinId, interval, rationale): Get a coin's price, market cap and volume at past times as point-in-time snapshots (not OHLC candles). Use for 'price of BTC last Tuesday', 'ETH market cap on 2024-01-01'. For OHLC chart candles use getCoinOHLCVHistorical; for the current price use getTickersById. Read-only. Params: coinId (required) canonical id like 'btc-bitcoin' (resolve via resolveId); start (required) and end (optional, default now) accept 'yyyy-mm-dd' or ISO 8601; interval (optional, default '5m'); quote (optional, default 'usd'); limit (optional, default 50, max 250) caps points. Requires a Starter+ plan (COINPAPRIKA_API_KEY). Required: coinId, start, rationale.
keyInfo(rationale): Get details and usage for the CoinPaprika API key you supplied: plan, quota, requests remaining and expiry. Use for 'what plan am I on', 'how many requests are left', 'is my API key valid'. Read-only; takes no parameters. Requires you to supply your own paid-plan CoinPaprika key; without one this hosted server returns a plan-required message instead of calling the API. It reports your key, never the server's. Required: rationale.
priceConverter(amount, rationale, baseCurrencyId, quoteCurrencyId): Convert an amount from one crypto or fiat to another at the current rate, e.g. 'how much is 0.5 BTC in USD', 'convert 100 USDC to EUR'. For a plain coin price without an amount, use getTickersById. Read-only; baseCurrencyId and quoteCurrencyId are canonical ids and amount is the quantity to convert. No API key required. Required: baseCurrencyId, quoteCurrencyId, rationale.
resolveId(type, limit, query, rationale): Resolve a fuzzy coin, exchange, person or tag name or symbol to a ranked list of candidate CoinPaprika ids, best first (take the top one). Call FIRST when you have a bare name or symbol but need an id, since ids are not derivable, then pass the id to getTickersById for price. Returns candidates with id, name, symbol, type and rank; an empty list means no match. Read-only. Params: type (required; one of 'coin', 'exchange', 'people', 'tags') sets entity kind; query (required) is the fuzzy text; limit (optional, default 50, max 250) caps candidates. Answers 'id for AAVE', 'resolve Vitalik'. No API key required. Required: type, query, rationale.
search(q, limit, modifier, rationale, categories): Broadly search CoinPaprika across coins, exchanges, ICOs, people and tags by name or symbol when the entity type is unknown or you are exploring. Use for 'find anything called X'. If you specifically need a coin's canonical id to fetch its price, prefer resolveId. Read-only; q is the query, categories filters entity types, limit caps results. No API key required. Required: q, rationale.
status(rationale): Get the CoinPaprika MCP server's status and configuration (uptime, mode, enabled features). Use when asked 'is the server up', 'what mode am I in', 'server status'. This reports the MCP server itself, not the crypto market; for market health use getGlobal. Read-only; takes no parameters and needs no API key. Required: rationale.
submitFeedback(goal, expected, observed, severity, blocked_at, attempted_tools): Report a problem or gap back to the CoinPaprika MCP maintainers: call it when you got stuck, a response was unexpected, information you needed was missing, or a tool did not behave as documented. Use when the user says 'this is wrong', 'report this', 'that did not work'. Low friction, partial feedback is welcome, and every submission is read. Required: goal.

These share tags the maintainers applied themselves, such as crypto-api, cryptocurrency, bitcoin, market-data. Common tags like "mcp" or "ai" are ignored for this: agreeing with six hundred other projects is not a similarity.

This is not a recommendation and not a test result. It is a map of what the authors said their work is about.
