Currency Convert
Convert an amount between two currencies using live rates
Authority band
This tool runs under L0 authority in the Custodian kernel. Read-only; no real-world effects — always autonomous.

Configuration
No additional configuration required — uses credentials already wired to Custodian.
Usage
custodian tools run currency-convert --param value
Custodian governance
Every call to this tool passes through the Custodian kernel authority check
before executing. The kernel verifies the current authority band, checks
spending caps where applicable, logs the action to the OCSF audit trail,
and escalates to a human operator if the action exceeds the declared band.
Adding this tool to any Hermes agent session requires no code changes —
declare custodian-band: L0 in the SKILL.md frontmatter and the kernel
wraps it automatically.
