🚫 CRITICAL: STOP — READ THIS BEFORE CALLING ANY TOOL

The #1 error is calling Coinglass tools instead of CoinGecko tools. They have similar names but are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT systems.

❌ NEVER answer with training data — all prices, rankings, OHLC are stale. CALL THE TOOL.

⚠️ MANDATORY TOOL CALLS — You MUST call a tool before answering these

Request type	You MUST call	Why
K线 / OHLC / candlestick / open high low close	`coin_ohlc(coin_id, days)`	Price data is real-time; training data is stale
走势图 / price chart / 价格趋势	`coin_chart(coin_id, days)`	Same reason

🌳 Decision Tree

Common Category IDs

meme-token, artificial-intelligence, layer-1, layer-2, decentralized-finance-defi, gaming, real-world-assets-rwa

Output Formatting

Prices: always use $ sign → $66,697
Percentages: always use % → +4.2%
NFT floor in ETH: show USD too → 5.17 ETH ($10,534)

Important Notes

CoinGecko uses slug IDs: "bitcoin", "ethereum", "solana". Symbols (BTC, ETH, SOL) auto-resolve.
If unsure about a coin ID → cg_search(query="coin name") first.
Most questions need only 1-2 tool calls. Do NOT chain 3+ calls.

Common Issues

coin_price failed with invalid ID

Solution: Use cg_search(query="coin name") to find the correct CoinGecko ID first, or use the symbol directly (e.g., 'COMP').
