Scrape Tokens
Automate token market data collection from CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap using the agent-browser CLI.
Prerequisites
agent-browser CLI installed and accessible
- Run
agent-browser --help to verify installation
Core Workflow
Step 1: Scrape CoinGecko
Navigate to CoinGecko:
agent-browser open https://www.coingecko.com/
Take snapshot to identify elements:
agent-browser snapshot -i
CoinGecko provides:
- Top cryptocurrencies by market cap
- 24h price changes
- Trading volume
- Market cap rankings
Step 2: Extract Token Data (CoinGecko)
For the main token list, extract:
| Field | Description |
|---|
rank | Market cap ranking |
name | Token name |
symbol | Token symbol (BTC, ETH) |
price | Current price in USD |
change_24h | 24-hour price change % |
change_7d | 7-day price change % |
market_cap | Market capitalization |
volume_24h | 24-hour trading volume |
JavaScript extraction pattern:
const tokens = [];
document.querySelectorAll('table tbody tr').forEach(row => {
const cells = row.querySelectorAll('td');
if (cells.length > 5) {
tokens.push({
rank: cells[1]?.innerText,
name: cells[2]?.querySelector('a')?.innerText,
price: cells[4]?.innerText,
change_24h: cells[5]?.innerText,
market_cap: cells[8]?.innerText
});
}
});
return tokens;
Step 3: Scrape CoinMarketCap
Navigate to CoinMarketCap:
agent-browser open https://coinmarketcap.com/
Take snapshot:
agent-browser snapshot -i
CoinMarketCap provides:
- Similar data to CoinGecko
- Fear & Greed Index
- Trending tokens
- Recently added tokens
Step 4: Extract Token Data (CMC)
Extract similar fields from CoinMarketCap table.
Note: CMC may have different CSS selectors. Use snapshot to identify correct refs.
Step 5: Extract Trending & New Tokens
Both platforms show trending/new tokens. Capture these separately:
CoinGecko Trending:
agent-browser open https://www.coingecko.com/en/discover
CoinMarketCap Trending:
agent-browser open https://coinmarketcap.com/trending-cryptocurrencies/
Extract:
- Trending tokens (most searched/traded)
- Recently added tokens
- Top gainers/losers
Step 6: Compile Results
Merge and deduplicate data from both sources.
