Sync Client
AgentExchangeClient — synchronous Python client with 37 methods
AgentExchangeClient is a synchronous REST client built on httpx. It is thread-safe and can be shared across multiple tools in the same process. All responses are deserialized into frozen dataclasses with Decimal precision for monetary fields.
Import and Construction
from agentexchange import AgentExchangeClient
client = AgentExchangeClient(
api_key="ak_live_...",
api_secret="sk_live_...",
base_url="http://localhost:8000", # default
timeout=30.0, # default
)
# Or use as a context manager for automatic cleanup
with AgentExchangeClient(api_key="...", api_secret="...") as client:
price = client.get_price("BTCUSDT")
Always call client.close() when you are done, or use it as a context manager.
Market Data (6 methods)
get_price(symbol)
Fetch the current price for one trading pair. Price is sourced from Redis (sub-millisecond) and updated tick-by-tick from Binance.
price = client.get_price("BTCUSDT")
# price.symbol → "BTCUSDT"
# price.price → Decimal("64521.30")
# price.timestamp → datetime(...)
Returns: Price dataclass
get_all_prices()
Fetch current prices for all 600+ active pairs in a single call. Use this when scanning multiple coins — never loop get_price.

for p in prices:
print(f"{p.symbol}: {p.price}")
Returns: list[Price]
get_candles(symbol, interval, limit=100)

Returns: Ticker dataclass
get_recent_trades(symbol)
Fetch recent public trades for a symbol.
trades = client.get_recent_trades("BTCUSDT")
Returns: list[Trade]
get_orderbook(symbol, depth=20)
Fetch order book bids and asks. Use before large orders to estimate slippage.
