coinhunter 1.0.0

CoinHunter trading CLI with user runtime data in ~/.coinhunter

Runtime-safe trading operations, precheck orchestration, review tooling, and market probes.

---

What is this?

coinhunter-cli is the executable tooling layer for CoinHunter — an installable Python CLI that handles trading operations, market probes, precheck orchestration, and review workflows.

Layer	Responsibility	Location
CLI	Top-level command router	cli.py
Commands	Thin argument adapters	commands/
Services	Orchestration & execution logic	services/
Runtime	Paths, env, locks, config	runtime.py
User Data	State, logs, reviews, positions	~/.coinhunter/

Separation of concerns: Code lives in this repo. Your data lives in ~/.coinhunter/. Strategy and prompting live in Hermes skills.

Installation

Standard install

pip install -e .

This creates the coinhunter console script entry point as defined in pyproject.toml.

Quick install script

./scripts/install_local.sh

A thin wrapper that runs pip install -e . and verifies the entrypoint is on your PATH.

Verify:

coinhunter --help
coinhunter --version

Quickstart

Initialize runtime state:

coinhunter init

Inspect the environment:

coinhunter paths
coinhunter diag

Validate API keys:

coinhunter api-check

Run the precheck workflow:

coinhunter precheck
coinhunter precheck --ack "analysis completed"

Run the external gate:

coinhunter gate

The gate reads trigger_command from ~/.coinhunter/config.json under external_gate.

• By default, no external trigger is configured — gate runs precheck and marks state, then exits cleanly.
• Set trigger_command to a command list to integrate with your own scheduler:

{
  "external_gate": {
    "trigger_command": ["hermes", "cron", "run", "JOB_ID"]
  }
}

• Set to null or [] to explicitly disable the external trigger.

Dynamic tuning via config.json

You can override internal defaults without editing code by adding keys to ~/.coinhunter/config.json:

{
  "external_gate": {
    "trigger_command": ["hermes", "cron", "run", "JOB_ID"]
  },
  "exchange": {
    "min_quote_volume": 200000,
    "cache_ttl_seconds": 3600
  },
  "logging": {
    "schema_version": 2
  }
}

Key	Default	Effect
exchange.min_quote_volume	200000	Minimum 24h quote volume for a symbol to appear in market snapshots
exchange.cache_ttl_seconds	3600	How long the ccxt exchange instance (and load_markets() result) is cached
logging.schema_version	2	Schema version stamped on every JSONL log entry

Runtime Model

Default data layout:

~/.coinhunter/
├── config.json
├── positions.json
├── accounts.json
├── watchlist.json
├── notes.json
├── executions.json
├── logs/
├── reviews/
├── cache/
└── state/
    ├── precheck_state.json
    └── external_gate.lock

Credential resolution:

• Binance API keys are read from ~/.hermes/.env by default.
• Override with COINHUNTER_ENV_FILE.
• Override home with COINHUNTER_HOME or HERMES_HOME.
• hermes binary is resolved from PATH, then ~/.local/bin/hermes, unless HERMES_BIN is set.

Development Status

The codebase is actively maintained and refactored in small, safe steps.

Recently completed:

• ✅ Unified CLI entrypoint with short aliases
• ✅ Extracted smart-executor into commands/ + services/
• ✅ Extracted precheck into 9 focused service modules
• ✅ Migrated all active command modules into commands/
• ✅ Extracted review_engine.py core logic into services/review_service.py
• ✅ Removed eager PATHS instantiation across services and commands
• ✅ Fixed smart_executor.py lazy-loading facade
• ✅ Standardized install to use pip install -e .
• ✅ Made external_gate trigger_command configurable (no longer hardcodes hermes)
• ✅ Removed dead auto-trader command
• ✅ Backward-compatible root facades preserved

Next priorities:

• 🔧 Unify output contract (JSON-first with --pretty option)
• 🔧 Add basic CI (lint + compileall + pytest)

Philosophy

CoinHunter is evolving toward:

• Professional execution — scientific position sizing, not moonshot gambling
• Maintainable architecture — clear boundaries between CLI, services, and domain logic
• Safer operations — dry-run, validation gates, and explicit decision logging
• Agent-friendly interfaces — stable JSON outputs and predictable command contracts
• Less dependence on prompt-only correctness — logic belongs in code, not just in system prompts

This repo is where that evolution happens.
