MEXC Futures REST
Workflow
Resolve bundled helper paths from the skill root. In Claude Code, use ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/...; do not assume the skill is installed under ~/.claude/skills or any fixed repository path.
Use ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/mexc_futures_request.py for request construction and signing. Never ask the user to paste API keys into chat, command arguments, source files, logs, or screenshots.
- Use the quick commands below first for common tasks. Do not open references or run broad text searches until a quick command or lookup slice is insufficient.
- Use
MEXC_API_KEY and MEXC_API_SECRET env vars only; the helper enforces credential loading, signed-param placement, redacted dry-runs, method/path/base-url validation, and live-write confirmation.
- Use
GET /api/v1/contract/detail to confirm contract metadata, precision, leverage limits, and availability before trading.
- MEXC is live-only: use tiny sizes and
--execute --confirm-live only when clearly requested.
- Prefer
python "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/lookup.py" <topic> over opening full references; for balance/account questions, start with python "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/lookup.py" balance.
Quick Commands
python "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/mexc_futures_request.py" GET /api/v1/contract/ping
python "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/mexc_futures_request.py" GET /api/v1/private/account/assets --signed
python "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/mexc_futures_request.py" GET /api/v1/private/account/assets --signed --execute
Rules
- Use
GET /api/v1/private/account/assets --signed --execute for the current Futures balance snapshot.
- Use
python "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/lookup.py" balance to retrieve compact balance/account commands without loading references.
- Futures order placement requires KYC and account-side permission; prefer
externalOid.
- Back off on rate limits and honor retry guidance when returned.
Verification
After helper edits, run python "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/mexc_futures_request.py" --self-test.
