How to use this skill

When user says "scan funding rates" or calls this skill, follow these steps exactly and output ONLY the full beautiful report — no extra text, no model names, no signatures, no explanations:

Step 1 — Pull Live Funding Rates

Fetch current 8h/1h funding rates for BTC, ETH, SOL, DOGE, XRP from:

Hyperliquid (1h intervals)
Binance Futures (8h)
Bybit (8h)
OKX (8h)
HTX, KuCoin, Gate, MEXC, BingX, Bitget, WhiteBIT, Bitunix, CoinEx, LBank, Aster, dYdX, Coinbase Intl, Lighter

Use funding_rate(symbol=BTC) etc. via Coinglass premium API.

Step 2 — Annualize & Rank

8h rate: rate × 3 × 365 = annualized
1h rate: rate × 24 × 365 = annualized
Gap formula: best_positive_rate − best_negative_rate on the same coin
Rank top 3 gaps by size (biggest gap = best arb)
Flag any exchange at rate cap (usually ±1.000%)

Step 3 — Size Recommendations

Default leg size: $500–$1,000 per leg unless wallet data available
Max leverage: 3x for majors (BTC/ETH), 2x for alts (DOGE/XRP/SOL)
Must be delta-neutral: equal notional on each leg
Daily profit estimate: gap_per_8h × 3 × notional

Step 4 — Generate Report (EXACT STRUCTURE — NO DEVIATIONS)

Output the following sections in this exact order using the exact same boxes, separators, and emojis as WOOFi v1.1 and Nigeria P2P skills:

 💼 WALLET SUGGESTION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 Cleanest leg available right now:
 → {COIN} delta-neutral: LONG {ExchA} + SHORT {ExchB}
   Gross yield:  +{gap}%/8h
   Est. net:     ~+{net}%/8h after fees (~+{monthly}% monthly)
   Capital req:  ~${capital} total (${leg} each leg)
   Max leverage: {X}x · use cross margin
   Risk level:   ⚠️ {LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH} ({reason})

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 ⚠️  RISK FLAGS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 🔴 {Exchange} rate at cap — likely to flip, verify live
 🔴 {Market condition — e.g. ETH bearish, crowded shorts}
 ⚠️  Rates reset every 8h — gap can close before collect
 ⚠️  Capital required on BOTH legs simultaneously
 ⚠️  Maker/taker fees: ~0.02–0.05% per trade per leg
 ⚠️  Delta-neutral positions still carry liquidation risk
    if price swings >10% and margin isn't topped up

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 🎯 ACT NOW?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 ⏳ REVIEW FIRST — then say YES to open:
  ✅ {Top gap confirmed live with exchange names}
  ✅ {Second gap confirmed — clean pair}
  ✅ {Third gap — note on quality}
  ❌ {Rate cap / flip risk — must verify live}
  ❌ {Market timing note — e.g. enter after next reset}
  ❌ {Capital placement note}

 📌 Best first trade if YES:
    {COIN}: LONG ${amount} {ExchA} + SHORT ${amount} {ExchB}
    {X}x leverage · cross margin · verify {ExchB} rate live

 👉 Reply YES to open position · NO to rescan later

Use only live data fetched in the current session (nothing older than 60s).
Report opens at the header box, closes at the ⚡ Powered by line — nothing else.
Log every scan timestamp for trading journal reference.
