## Quick Start

```bash
npm install -g @emblemvault/agentwallet

# What's trending (uses getTrendingCoins)
emblemai --agent --profile default -m "Use getTrendingCoins to show what's trending in crypto right now"

# Token deep dive (uses birdeyeTradeData)
emblemai --agent --profile default -m "Use birdeyeTradeData to analyze SOL — show volume, trades, buy/sell ratio, and liquidity"
```

**Trigger phrases:**
- "What's trending in crypto?"
- "Analyze this token"
- "Show derivatives data for BTC"
- "What are whales buying?"
- "Show smart money flows"

## Workflow: Token Research

### Step 1: Discovery
Find what's moving.
```bash
emblemai --agent --profile default -m "Use getTrendingCoins to show trending tokens, then use birdeyeTrendingTokens for Solana-specific trending with volume data"
```

### Step 2: Deep Dive
Research a specific token with real trade data.
```bash
emblemai --agent --profile default -m "Use birdeyeTradeData to analyze JUP on Solana — show price, volume across timeframes, unique wallets, buy/sell ratio, and liquidity"
```

### Step 3: On-Chain Intelligence
Check what smart money is doing.
```bash
emblemai --agent --profile default -m "Use nansen_smart_money_flows to show token flows on solana in the last 24h. Then use nansen_smart_money_trades to show recent smart money trades"
```

### Step 4: Derivatives Context
Check funding rates and whale positioning.
```bash
emblemai --agent --profile default -m "Use getCoinglassOpenInterestHistory to show BTC open interest, and getCoinglassHyperliquidWhaleAlert for current whale positions"
```
