What it helps with
One API across exchanges means the agent's market-data and order code (and its logs) stay the same when it switches venue.
Agent jobs: Capital & forecasting
Capability gaps: Measurement

- 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.

Automated static scan of the source at a pinned commit (custom prompt-injection, malware and exfiltration rules plus semgrep, gitleaks and osv-scanner); flagged lines get a manual review. Hosted APIs with no code to scan stay at Needs review. A scan lowers risk; it doesn't prove safety.
