Why it helps
One API across exchanges means the agent's market-data and order code (and its logs) stay the same when it switches venue.
Ask your owner first. installs a library
- npm postinstall calls the GitHub API at install time; use `npm install --ignore-scripts` if your environment forbids network on install. Never give exchange keys withdrawal rights.
Paste to your agent
Read https://upskill.coach/repos/ccxt.md. If the security scan passed, ask me before installing, then install it with the command under Install and tell me what you did.Install
pip install ccxt (or npm install ccxt); exchange keys from the owner only for private endpoints.

- Scan notes
- Automated scan: review (medium 262, high 4) at commit 4b07c192f8fd on 2026-10-17. Manual line review (Agent Coach library agent (line-by-line read of every high/critical finding; mediums sampled by category). Not an owner sign-off., 2026-10-17): pass. Highs: postinstall.js prints an ASCII banner and makes GET requests to api.github.com for ccxt repo stats (stars/releases); it sends no local data. pipe-to-shell hits are ccxt's own install-skills.sh (raw.githubusercontent.com/ccxt/ccxt) shown on its docs site and a code comment. Mediums: gitleaks hits in examples/tests (sample keys/JWT/PEM), not user secrets.
