Hive Skills: Agent Skills for Crypto Intelligence

Live crypto, wallet, token, DeFi, DEX, NFT, Solana, security, network, prediction-market, and market workflows for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and any agent, powered by the Hive Intelligence MCP server.

Install

npx skills add hive-intel/hive-skills        # all skills

Install a single skill, non-interactively, or for a specific agent:

npx skills add hive-intel/hive-skills --skill hive-token-diligence --yes
npx skills add hive-intel/hive-skills --skill hive-query --agent claude-code
npx skills add hive-intel/hive-skills --list   # browse without installing

Skills are also bundled in the hive-intelligence npm package (npx -y -p hive-intelligence@latest hive init --all --browser) and installable as a Claude plugin via the bundled .claude-plugin/plugin.json.

Prerequisites

• Hosted Hive MCP (default): https://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp. Works with a single Hive API key and no provider setup. Start with the hive-mcp skill to wire it up, or hive-build-onboarding to get a key.
• Local stdio / self-host: optional, for your own provider keys. The hive-mcp skill covers both paths.

Skill catalog

Start here

The one skill to install first: live crypto intelligence on MCP or the hive CLI, with setup, routing, credits, error handling, and feedback built in.

Skill	Use when
hive	One skill for live crypto intelligence on MCP or the hive CLI: setup, routing, the Hive loop, credits and errors, feedback, and archived derivatives history.

Setup and Build

Skills for installing Hive MCP, getting API keys, using the Hive CLI, and integrating Hive into application code.

Skill	Use when
hive-mcp	Add Hive's MCP server to Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, or Gemini CLI. Per-client instructions.
hive-build-onboarding	Walk the user through browser-based sign-in. Use when the user has no API key or cannot find theirs.
hive-cli	Use the hive CLI inline from a chat: query prices, scan wallets, check token security, automate briefings.
hive-build	Integrate Hive into app code via REST or MCP SDK. Python, TypeScript, Go, Java, Rust patterns with retry / async / typed responses.

Discovery and Routing

Skills that teach agents how to discover task toolsets, inspect schemas, and execute bounded Hive MCP calls.

Skill	Use when
hive-query	Route crypto questions through canonical task toolsets, schema lookup, and exact tool invocation.
hive-tool-discovery	Find the right Hive tool, task toolset, schema, or endpoint before execution.

Crypto Research Workflows

Focused workflows for market, token, wallet, security, DEX, DeFi, NFT, Solana, network, prediction-market, and stateful monitoring analysis.

Skill	Use when
hive-market-research	Research live prices, liquidity, exchanges, OHLC, order books, funding rates, and derivatives.
hive-token-diligence	Investigate token metadata, market context, liquidity, holders, enrichment, and risk.
hive-wallet-investigation	Inspect wallet balances, transfers, NFTs, PnL, DeFi positions, and notable activity.
hive-security-risk	Check token, approval, address, dApp, phishing, contract, and simulation risk.
hive-dex-pool-analysis	Analyze pools, pairs, liquidity, trades, OHLCV, and DEX flow.
hive-defi-research	Analyze DeFi protocols, TVL, fees, revenue, stablecoins, bridges, and yields.
hive-nft-research	Research NFT collections, ownership, metadata, floors, sales, rarity, and spam checks.
hive-solana-analysis	Analyze Solana wallets, SPL accounts, DAS assets, parsed transactions, and priority fees.
hive-network-infrastructure	Read chain state, gas, blocks, receipts, logs, transaction status, and RPC diagnostics.
hive-prediction-markets	Research Polymarket prediction markets: events, market-implied odds, order books, odds history, and wallet positions.
hive-stateful-monitoring	Create, list, update, and archive durable crypto monitors, alerts, scheduled reports, and agent memory.

Try it

Once installed, skills activate when the agent detects a relevant task. Each example shows the phrasing that routes to a given skill:

Ask your agent	Routes to
"What is the price and 24h change for ETH right now?"	hive-query
"Is the token at 0x6982… safe to ape? Run diligence."	hive-token-diligence
"Trace where this wallet's funds came from on Ethereum."	hive-wallet-investigation
"What's the BTC perp funding-rate picture across exchanges?"	hive-market-research
"Show the top DeFi protocols by TVL and 7d fees."	hive-defi-research
"Add Hive to Cursor and verify it works."	hive-mcp

Answers should report provider provenance, data freshness, and runtime status.

How it works

Each skill follows the Agent Skills spec: a SKILL.md with YAML name + description and progressive disclosure: metadata loads at startup, full instructions load on activation, and where a skill carries genuinely deep material (per-client install matrices, root-MCP architecture, B2B subject signing) it lives in references/ and loads only when needed. Every skill also ships evals/ with execution test cases and trigger evals. Every Hive skill preserves the same loop: discovery → schema lookup → bounded execution → diagnostics → provenance-aware answer.

Trust & provenance

Data trust is the product. Skills surface the source provider, freshness, and degraded/cached/rate-limited runtime states in grounded answers, and avoid silently mixing provider data. Missing provider keys return a classified missing_key state rather than a wrong answer.

Supported agents

Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code (Copilot Chat), OpenAI Responses API, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, and agents installable via npx skills or a .claude-plugin marketplace.
