## What this connects

CurrencyBeacon is a developer friendly, easy-to-use REST API with real-time and historical exchange rates for fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies.

Vendor: https://currencybeacon.com/

## Tools available

**5** tools available. First 5:

- `CURRENCYSCOOP_CONVERT_CURRENCY2` — Convert Currency with Historical Support — Tool to convert any amount from one currency to another using real-time or historical exchange rates. Use when you need to convert a specific amount between two currencies, optionally specifying a date for historical rates.
- `CURRENCYSCOOP_GET_CURRENCIES` — Get Currencies — Tool to retrieve all supported currencies including their names and countries. Use when you need information about available currencies, either fiat or crypto.
- `CURRENCYSCOOP_GET_HISTORICAL_RATES` — Get Historical Exchange Rates — Tool to retrieve historical exchange rate data for past dates going back to 1996. Use when you need to access exchange rates for a specific historical date with a base currency.
- `CURRENCYSCOOP_GET_LATEST_RATES` — Get Latest Exchange Rates — Tool to retrieve real-time exchange rate data for all available currencies. Use when you need current exchange rates updated based on subscription plan frequency (e.g., every 60 seconds). Returns only current rates, not historical values; use CURRENCYSCOOP_GET_HISTORICAL_RATES for rates on a specific past date.
- `CURRENCYSCOOP_GET_TIMESERIES_RATES` — Get Timeseries Exchange Rates — Tool to retrieve historical exchange rates for a given time period between start and end dates. Use when you need exchange rates for multiple dates in a date range for trend analysis or historical comparisons.

## How agents use CurrencyScoop

Inside a Definable workflow, CurrencyScoop is one of the tools the **Distributor specialist** can call. Example coordination patterns:

- **Researcher → CurrencyScoop** — the Researcher (GPT-5.5) pulls context from CurrencyScoop (records, threads, documents), synthesises findings, and briefs the rest of the team.
- **Writer → Distributor → CurrencyScoop** — the Writer (Claude Opus 4.7) drafts copy in brand voice, the Verifier passes it, then the Distributor writes the result into CurrencyScoop (create record, post message, draft email).
- **Designer / Engineer → Distributor → CurrencyScoop** — the Designer ships an asset or the Engineer ships a code change, the Distributor delivers it via CurrencyScoop (attach file, open PR comment, post status).

The Verifier checks every CurrencyScoop call. On rate limit, schema drift, or auth refresh it self-heals and retries — the workflow completes without manual intervention.
