Short answer

Before using ChartsPod's agent, check the model key setup (bring your own key; ChartsPod states the key stays in the browser), which model you've selected, and that tool calls are visible so you can verify each value. Write prompts that name the market, venue and window, and require timestamps and sources. The agent doesn't place orders. An MCP endpoint (/api/mcp) also lets Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use ChartsPod tools.

Common first-session mistakes:

  • Trusting prose over tool output
  • Vague prompts
  • Assuming it can trade

Worked example

Illustrative: an answer cited funding at 0.04%; the tool call shows that value was predicted, not settled. Prompt patterns: AI Crypto Model Selection: A Prompt That Requests Evidence and Invalidation.
