DeFi Data Fetcher

Purpose

Collect DeFi metrics from prioritized sources, normalize them, reconcile cross-source conflicts, and return a source-attributed dataset with freshness and confidence labels.

Use this skill when

• The user asks for current or historical DeFi metrics (TVL, APY, volume, fees, revenue, token prices).
• The user wants protocol/token comparisons across chains.
• The user needs a clean dataset before risk or strategy analysis.

Do not use this skill when

• The task is transaction signing or broadcasting.
• The task is pure protocol economic risk scoring (use defi-risk-evaluator).

External dependency profile

• Dependency level: High for live/current metrics.
• Primary sources: protocol-native APIs/subgraphs and official analytics.
• Secondary sources: DeFiLlama and market data aggregators.
• Validation/backfill: direct RPC reads.
• Offline fallback: supports normalization/reconciliation/reporting on user-provided snapshots only.

Workflow

1. Clarify query scope:
   • Protocols/tokens/chains
   • Time window (latest, 24h, 7d, custom)
   • Required metrics
2. Build source plan with references/source-priority.md.
3. Fetch using ordered providers and keep retrieval timestamps.
4. Normalize fields/units via references/metric-definitions.md.
5. Apply freshness policy from references/freshness-sla.md.
6. Reconcile conflicts (median + spread analysis) and assign confidence.
7. If live fetch is unavailable, switch to references/offline-fallback.md mode and state limits.
8. Return required schema.

Data quality rules

• Always separate apy_base and apy_reward.
• Percentages are decimal internally (0.12 = 12%).
• All timestamps must be UTC ISO-8601.
• Never hide source disagreement; show spread and confidence.
• Explicitly flag stale or partial coverage.

Bundled resources

• references/metric-definitions.md: Canonical metric semantics.
• references/source-priority.md: Source ranking and failover policy.
• references/freshness-sla.md: Metric-specific freshness thresholds.
• references/offline-fallback.md: Behavior when live providers are unavailable.
• scripts/normalize_metrics.py: Deterministic normalization + optional reconciliation mode.

Use scripts/normalize_metrics.py --reconcile when you have multiple rows per metric/entity/chain and need consistent confidence/spread outputs.
