Trending Pools Analyzer Skill

Description

Automatically analyzes and displays the top performing liquidity pools on any blockchain network ranked by 24-hour trading volume. Helps users discover hot trading opportunities and trending tokens.

When This Skill Activates

Claude will use this skill when:

• User asks for trending tokens or hot pools
• User wants to see top volume pools on a network
• User searches for popular trading pairs
• User asks "What's trending on [network]?"
• User wants to find the best performing pools
• User asks about market activity or volume leaders

Examples that trigger this skill:

• "What are the trending tokens on Solana?"
• "Show me the top pools by volume on Base"
• "What's hot right now on Ethereum?"
• "Which pools are getting the most trading action?"
• "Show me trending on BSC"
• "What pools have the highest volume today?"
• "Which tokens are moving the most volume?"

How It Works

When activated, this skill identifies and analyzes trending pools:

Stage 1: Input Validation

• Extract network from user input
• Normalize network name (e.g., "Ethereum" → "ethereum", "Solana" → "solana")
• Call getCapabilities(rationale) to load network synonyms
• Determine how many pools to display (default: 10, max: 20)

Stage 2: Pool Discovery

Using DexPaprika MCP tools:

1. Call getNetworkPools(network, rationale) - Get top pools by volume
2. For each pool, retrieve:
   • Pool address and DEX name
   • Trading pair (Token A / Token B)
   • 24h volume (USD)
   • Current price
   • 24h transactions
   • Liquidity metrics

Stage 3: Analysis & Formatting

Analyze trending patterns:

• Volume strength relative to historical average
• Recent momentum indicators
• Pair composition (stable/volatile)
• Concentration of volume

Output format:

TOP TRENDING POOLS - [Network Name]
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Rank | Pool Pair | DEX | 24h Volume | Price | TX Count
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
#1   | Token/USDC | Orca | $2.5M | $... | 1,245
#2   | Token/SOL  | Meteora | $1.8M | $... | 892
...

Data from: DexPaprika | [timestamp] | [N] pools analyzed

Tools Available

Every tool requires a rationale argument. It is a 20 to 500 character string saying what triggered the call and what you will do with the result, for example "User asked whether this token is a honeypot; fetching pool details to check liquidity depth." Omitting it fails the call with -32602 Input validation error.

You have access to:

• getNetworkPools(network, rationale) - Get top pools ranked by volume
• getPoolDetails(network, pool_address, rationale) - Get detailed pool metrics
• getPoolTransactions(network, pool_address, rationale) - Analyze trading activity
• getTokenDetails(network, token_address, rationale) - Get token information
• getCapabilities(rationale) - Get network synonyms and validation rules
• getNetworks() - List supported blockchains

Important Guidelines

1. Volume-Focused Analysis

   • Rank pools primarily by 24h trading volume
   • This indicates genuine trading activity
   • Avoid low-liquidity or wash-traded pools when possible

2. Network Normalization

   • Always call getCapabilities(rationale) first
   • User says "Base Mainnet" → normalize to "base"
   • User says "Solana Devnet" → clarify or normalize to "solana"

3. Pool Quality Assessment

   • Show liquidity alongside volume
   • Flag extremely low liquidity with high volume (wash trading warning)
   • Highlight stable pairs vs. volatile token pairs
   • Note pool age if very new (<7 days)

4. Presentation

   • Display top 10 by default
   • Allow user to request more (up to 20)
   • Show clear ranking numbers
   • Highlight the top 3 pools
   • Include DEX name for execution clarity

5. Context Clues

   • Identify common themes in trending pools
   • Example: "Current trend: Solana meme tokens dominating volume"
   • Note if specific tokens appear in multiple high-volume pools

6. Actionability

   • Each pool listed should be ready for analysis
   • Include pool addresses for easy security/technical checks
   • Suggest next steps (analyze security, check charts)
   • Link to related skills

7. Error Handling

   • Network not supported → list available networks
   • No pools found → explain possible reasons
   • Low activity → explain market conditions
   • API issues → graceful degradation with available data
