Live Silver Price Skill

Overview

Each request returns real-time silver prices calculated per gram, kilogram, and troy ounce, defaulting to USD with a timestamp and 24-hour price change. Paid plans can switch to any of 172 supported ISO currencies, retrieve 24-hour percentage changes, or pass an hourly flag to receive 24 historical hourly price points.

The tool

Once your client is connected to the VerveKit server, this appears in its tool list as LiveSilverPriceSkill. It is read-only and open-world — it fetches and never mutates anything on your side — so most clients call it without asking you to confirm.

{
  "name": "LiveSilverPriceSkill",
  "arguments": {}
}

Connecting

One server URL covers every skill in the catalog, including this one. Authorization is OAuth: the client opens a browser once, and there is no key to paste into a config file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vervekit": {
      "url": "https://api.vervekit.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Per-client setup — Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT — is on the MCP setup page.

Arguments

These are the properties on the tool's inputSchema, so a well-behaved client validates them before the call is made. Premium arguments are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them.

What the model gets back

The result carries a structuredContent object matching the tool's declared outputSchema, so a client reads fields without parsing prose. status is "ok" and error is null on success; a null field means the value was not available for that input, not that the call failed.

Response fields

Paths are relative to data. Premium fields are absent rather than zeroed on plans that do not include them, so check for presence instead of comparing to 0.

Failure modes

Errors come back as tool errors carrying a sentence the model can act on, not a bare status code. Error handling covers the full list.

A call costs 2 credits each time the tool actually runs; a model that reasons about the tool without calling it costs nothing.

Use cases

Bullion Store Checkout

Bullion dealers calculate live retail markups against current per-ounce spot silver rates during customer checkout to prevent selling below metal value.
