CLI

Every endpoint as a command that prints JSON to stdout — pipe it into jq, an LLM, or a bot. Zero third-party dependencies (Python 3.8+ stdlib only). Built for trading agents and shell pipelines.

Why a CLI when there's an MCP server?

The MCP server is for agents inside Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Cline. The CLI is the better fit when you're driving a bot or shell pipeline: plain JSON with no protocol envelope is more token-efficient, it composes with Unix tools, and it runs anywhere curl does. Same data, both surfaces.

Install

pip install n0brains-cli
export N0BRAINS_API_KEY=intel_sk_...   # get one at n0brains.com

Public endpoints (like proof) work without a key. Everything else reads N0BRAINS_API_KEY (or --api-key).

Commands

CommandReturns
signalsActive classified signals (--proven-only, --tradeable-only, --asset, --type, --limit)
signal <id>One signal with full context
similar <query>Semantic similarity search (pro)
levels <coin>Support/resistance
liquidation-map <coin>Estimated liquidation-cluster zones
correlation [coin]Correlation matrix, or one coin's corr+beta (--vs, --coins)
rotationAltseason/rotation read
macroDaily BTC/ETH macro bias
narrative <coin>Narrative context
trust <coin>Trust/rug score
manipulation <coin>Manipulation score
proof [--equity]Live forward-return proof per signal type (+ equity curve)
performance [--days N] [--tier N]Backtest stats
streamLive signal stream over WebSocket (pro)

Examples

# Only proven-edge signals, as JSON
n0brains signals --proven-only --limit 10

# Is it altseason? one-line answer
n0brains rotation | jq -r .regime

# Where are BTC liquidation magnets?
n0brains liquidation-map BTC | jq '.densest_long_liq_zone, .densest_short_liq_zone'

# Live forward-return proof
n0brains proof

# Stream proven strong-conviction signals into a bot (needs: pip install websockets)
n0brains stream | jq -c 'select(.conviction=="strong")'

Exit code is 2 on an API error (so scripts can detect failures), 0 on success. For agent frameworks, the SKILL.md shipped with the CLI describes each tool and how to use the proven-edge gate.
