Uses CoinGecko and Yahoo Finance free APIs so you get real-time crypto and stock data with no account signup or key management.
When to use it
- Checking live BTC price before placing a trade
- Setting an alert when AAPL falls below a target buy price
- Generating a daily markdown summary of portfolio performance
- Comparing crypto and stock returns side by side
- Scheduling automated price checks with a cron job
Example Workflow
Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.

- 1Runs `finance-watcher add ETH --type crypto` to add Ethereum to the watchlist
- 2Runs `finance-watcher add TSLA --type stock` to add Tesla
- 3Runs `finance-watcher alert ETH --below 2000` to set the price alert
- 4Runs `finance-watcher check` to verify current alert status
- 5Runs `finance-watcher report --output daily-report.md` to generate the portfolio summary
Watchlist contains ETH and TSLA, a below-$2000 alert is set for ETH, and daily-report.md is written with current prices and changes
