CoinGecko + ChatGPT

Query CoinGecko (crypto prices, market data, historical, exchanges, NFT floor prices) from any AI agent. 8 tools, optional API-key auth.

Requisitos previos

Las instrucciones de configuración completas están incluidas en el conector (visibles en el store al seleccionarlo). Las variables de entorno requeridas:

(none — public API)

Paso 1 — Obtener credenciales

This connector wraps the CoinGecko REST API.

Setup:

  1. The PUBLIC API (api.coingecko.com/api/v3) requires NO API key but is harshly rate-limited (~10-30 calls/min) and missing some endpoints.
  2. For higher throughput, sign up for the free DEMO plan at https://www.coingecko.com/en/developers/dashboard → create an x-cg-demo-api-key. This raises the limit to 30 calls/min and stays free.
  3. Paid PRO plans use a different host (pro-api.coingecko.com) and header x-cg-pro-api-key — switch baseUrl + auth header accordingly.
  4. Set COINGECKO_API_KEY if you have one; leave unset for anonymous public access.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Paso 2 — Instalar el adapter

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Paso 3 — Añadir el conector en ChatGPT

ChatGPT soporta servidores MCP a través de la función Connectors (planes Plus / Pro / Team / Enterprise). El plan gratuito no admite conectores personalizados.

  1. Abre ChatGPT → Settings → Connectors (o pulsa el icono 🔧 en el composer → Manage connectors).
  2. Pulsa "Add custom connector".
  3. Rellena:
    • Name: CoinGecko
    • MCP server URL: https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp
    • Authentication: Bearer token → pega tu MCP API key (de AnythingMCP → Profile → MCP API Keys → New Key)
  4. Pulsa Connect para autorizar.
