The AI agent retrieves the current price for the configured coin from CoinGecko.

Overview

End-to-end automation for price monitoring and alert delivery.

The AI agent continuously fetches real-time prices from CoinGecko. It compares the price to user-defined min and max thresholds and decides if an alert is needed. When triggered, it sends a formatted Discord message and logs the event for auditing.

Yes. The AI agent supports a watchlist, allowing you to configure individual min and max thresholds per coin. It fetches prices for all configured coins on each run and evaluates them in parallel. You can adjust per-coin notifications and keep a consolidated log of all events.

You can set the check interval when configuring the agent. It supports frequent polling (e.g., every minute) or longer intervals (e.g., every 15 minutes) depending on your needs. Each run pulls the current price from CoinGecko and evaluates thresholds anew.

If a Discord delivery fails, the agent retries with exponential backoff and logs the failure details. It will surface a persistent alert in the logs so you can diagnose the issue. You can configure a fallback channel or alert method if needed.

The agent only uses the configured CoinGecko ticker and the Discord webhook URL you provide. It does not store private keys or sensitive data beyond timestamps and coin identifiers in the logs. You should rotate webhooks regularly and apply least-privilege access.

Yes. You can run a test mode that uses a sandbox Discord channel and a test coin/threshold configuration. The agent will generate a sample alert to show the exact message format and log entries without affecting your live channels.

The current design is modular: you can add additional price sources or alert destinations with minimal changes. It’s straightforward to plug in alternatives for price data or messaging platforms while preserving the core evaluation logic.

Add your coin ID, set min and max thresholds, paste your Discord webhook URL, and run a test. Review the logs to confirm a successful price fetch, evaluation, and alert delivery. Adjust thresholds if needed and re-test until the flow behaves as expected.
