- description
- Collect and summarize cryptocurrency and coin market news with OpenClaw-friendly workflows. Use when users request coin news, crypto news, token-specific news, daily market briefings, or a replacement for Dify-based news aggregation. Supports configurable sources, keyword scoring, source weighting, deduplication, and structured JSON output for downstream tuning.
Coin News OpenClaw
Collect cryptocurrency news from configurable sources, normalize the articles, score relevance, and return a structured digest that can be tuned over time.
Use This Skill When
- The user wants a daily or on-demand crypto news digest
- The user wants news for a specific token or narrative
- The user wants to replace or compare against an existing Dify news workflow
- The user wants a configurable pipeline that PA can tune later
Workflow
- Read
references/sources.yamlto determine enabled sources and source weights. - Read
references/scoring.yamlto determine token aliases, topic keywords, negative keywords, and ranking logic. - If deterministic collection is needed, run
scripts/fetch_coin_news.py. - Filter the normalized article list to the user’s requested scope.
- Rank articles using source weight, keyword matches, recency, and duplicate suppression.
- Return a short digest or a structured JSON array for downstream workflow use.

python3 scripts/fetch_coin_news.py --days 1 --token-limit 50
# Disable dynamic token fetching (use only YAML config)
python3 scripts/fetch_coin_news.py --days 1 --no-dynamic-tokensOutput Formats
JSON (default)
python3 scripts/fetch_coin_news.py --days 1Returns structured JSON for programmatic use.
Markdown (recommended for reading)
python3 scripts/fetch_coin_news.py --days 1 --format markdownReturns formatted markdown with clickable links for each article:
## 1. [Article Title](https://example.com/article)
**来源**: CoinDesk | **时间**: 2026-03-25 | **分数**: 78
**Token**: BTC, ETH
**主题**: etf
Summary text here...
---Time Range
- Default: last 24 hours
- Support explicit day windows such as:
- recent 2 days - recent 3 days - recent 7 days
- Support common Chinese requests such as:
- 最近2天 - 最近3天 - 最近一周 - 过去7天
- For deterministic runs, prefer
--days <n>over manually converting to hours. - If both
--daysand--hoursare provided,--daystakes precedence. - Recommended mapping:
- 最近2天 -> --days 2 - 最近3天 -> --days 3 - 最近一周 -> --days 7 - 过去7天 -> --days 7
Dynamic Token Fetching
The skill automatically fetches the top 100 tokens (by market cap) from CoinGecko API and merges them with the YAML config:
- Source: CoinGecko API (free, no API key required)
- Cache TTL: 24 hours (stored in
scoring.yamlunderdynamic_tokens) - Merge logic: YAML
token_aliasesoverrides dynamic tokens (for manual tuning) - Disable: Use
--no-dynamic-tokensto use only YAML config
Output Contract
Prefer this JSON structure for workflow handoff:
[
{
“title”: “Example headline”,
“url”: “https://example.com/article”,
“source”: “CoinDesk”,
“published_at”: “2026-03-20T09:00:00Z”,
“summary”: “One paragraph summary.”,
“score”: 78,
“matched_topics”: [“bitcoin”, “etf”],
“matched_tokens”: [“BTC”],
“duplicate_group_key”: “normalized-title-key”
}
]Tuning Rules
- Do not hardcode source lists in prompts. Update
references/sources.yaml. - Do not hardcode scoring logic in prompts. Update
references/scoring.yaml. - Prefer established publications before secondary aggregators.
- If the user asks for “latest” or “today”, prioritize the last 24 hours and show exact dates.
