03 · What Truss44 MCP Crypto Price can do

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.

Limitations (from the README)

This MCP server works directly via pnpm dlx (configs above) and does not require Smithery. If you do use the Smithery CLI, authenticate with smithery auth login or by setting SMITHERY_API_KEY in your environment. Recent versions of the Smithery CLI do not support passing API keys via --key (or older --profile patterns).
