Kraken Crypto Skill

Use the kraken_cli.py wrapper to query your Kraken account.

Setup

Export your Kraken API credentials.

export KRAKEN_API_KEY="your_api_key"
export KRAKEN_API_SECRET="your_api_secret"

You can also create a .env file in the skill directory.

1. Primary Commands

Use these commands for portfolio queries. They calculate totals automatically.

Example Output summary

TOTAL NET WORTH
  Main Wallet (Equity):    $544.95
  Earn Wallet (Bonded):    $81.89
  TOTAL:                   $626.84

AUTO EARN (Flexible) in Main Wallet
  BTC   : $493.92 (rewards: $0.03)
  ETH   : $50.66 (rewards: $0.11)

BONDED STAKING in Earn Wallet
  SOL   : $66.73 (rewards: $0.89)
  DOT   : $15.16 (rewards: $0.55)

  Total Staking Rewards:   $1.71

The wrapper separates Auto Earn from Bonded staking to avoid double counting.

2. Raw API Commands

These commands use kraken_api.py for detailed data. Use them for specific information not covered by primary commands.

3. Critical Caveats

Double Counting Warning

Do not add balance and earn-positions together.

Kraken has two staking types.

• Auto Earn Flexible assets stay in the Main wallet. These are included in portfolio equity.
• Bonded Staking assets move to the Earn wallet. These are not in portfolio equity.

The summary command handles this correctly. If you use raw commands manually follow this logic.

• Correct calculation is Total equals Portfolio Equity plus Bonded Earn Only.
• Incorrect calculation is Total equals Portfolio Equity plus All Earn Allocations.

API Response Notes

• ohlc returns a list under the pair key.
• depth bids and asks are nested under the pair key.
• recent-trades returns a list containing price, volume, time, side, type, and misc.
• earn-strategies uses the items key with apr_estimate.
