Usage Notes
- Large payloads: The
/v2/protocolsand/poolsendpoints return massive JSON arrays. Always extract and present only the top N items relevant to the user's query. - Combine with CoinGecko for token price context and with
read_contractfor on-chain verification of TVL claims. - When presenting yield data, always note that APY is historical and not guaranteed.
- Sort pools by TVL to surface safer opportunities first.
