# Gate MCP Skill
Use this skill to run Gate public market data workflows through `uxc` + MCP.
Reuse the `uxc` skill for shared MCP execution, output parsing, and generic auth guidance.
## Prerequisites
- `uxc` is installed and available in `PATH`.
- Network access to `https://api.gatemcp.ai/mcp`.
## Scope
This skill covers the official Gate MCP surface for:
- public spot market discovery
- public spot tickers, trades, order books, and candlesticks
- public futures contracts, tickers, trades, order books, funding, and premium data
This skill does **not** cover:
- private account or trading workflows
- Gate REST v4 signed APIs
- wallet, funding, or portfolio actions
## Endpoint
Use Gate's official MCP endpoint:
- `https://api.gatemcp.ai/mcp`
## Core Workflow
1. Use the fixed link command by default:
- `command -v gate-mcp-cli`
- If missing, create it:
`uxc link gate-mcp-cli https://api.gatemcp.ai/mcp`
- `gate-mcp-cli -h`
2. Inspect tool and argument help before execution:
- `gate-mcp-cli cex_spot_get_spot_tickers -h`
- `gate-mcp-cli cex_spot_get_spot_order_book -h`
- `gate-mcp-cli cex_fx_get_fx_tickers -h`
- `gate-mcp-cli cex_fx_get_fx_order_book -h`
3. Prefer narrow spot or futures reads with explicit instrument identifiers:
- `gate-mcp-cli cex_spot_get_spot_tickers currency_pair=BTC_USDT`
- `gate-mcp-cli cex_spot_get_spot_order_book currency_pair=BTC_USDT limit=20`
- `gate-mcp-cli cex_fx_get_fx_tickers contract=BTC_USDT`
- `gate-mcp-cli cex_fx_get_fx_funding_rate contract=BTC_USDT`
## Operations
### Spot
- `cex_spot_list_currencies`
- `cex_spot_list_currency_pairs`
- `cex_spot_get_currency`
- `cex_spot_get_currency_pair`
- `cex_spot_get_spot_tickers`
- `cex_spot_get_spot_order_book`
- `cex_spot_get_spot_trades`
- `cex_spot_get_spot_candlesticks`
### Futures
- `cex_fx_list_fx_contracts`
- `cex_fx_get_fx_contract`
- `cex_fx_get_fx_tickers`
- `cex_fx_get_fx_order_book`
- `cex_fx_get_fx_trades`
- `cex_fx_get_fx_candlesticks`
- `cex_fx_get_fx_funding_rate`
- `cex_fx_get_fx_premium_index`
- `cex_fx_list_fx_liq_orders`
## Guardrails
- Keep automation on the JSON output envelope; do not use `--text`.
- Parse stable fields first: `ok`, `kind`, `protocol`, `data`, `error`.
- Treat this v1 skill as read-only.
- Prefer `currency_pair` values like `BTC_USDT` for spot and `contract` values like `BTC_USDT` for futures unless help output indicates a different contract name.
- `gate-mcp-cli <operation> ...` is equivalent to `uxc https://api.gatemcp.ai/mcp <operation> ...`.
