API reference for CoinMarketCap DEX endpoints including token lookup, pools, transactions, trending, and security analysis. Use this skill whenever the user mentions DEX API, asks about on-chain token data, wants to look up tokens by contract address, needs security/rug risk checks, or is building DEX integrations. This is the definitive reference for CMC DEX API questions. Trigger: "DEX API", "token by contract address", "CMC security API", "liquidity pool API", "/cmc-api-dex"
This skill covers CoinMarketCap's DEX (Decentralized Exchange) APIs for on-chain token data. Unlike CEX endpoints, these APIs fetch data directly from blockchain DEXs like Uniswap, PancakeSwap, and Raydium.
