The NGN Market skill teaches your coding agent how to use the NGN Market API without being told each time. The skill file is hosted at docs.ngnmarket.com/skill.md. Once installed, your agent will be able to:
  • Look up live and historical NGX equities, indices, ETFs, and bond data
  • Fetch OHLCV price history and render it as a candlestick or line chart correctly
  • Convert between NGN and other currencies using live forex rates
  • Pull dividend calendars, corporate disclosures, and company fundamentals
  • Know which plan tier (free through enterprise) an endpoint requires before recommending it

​
Prerequisites

  • An NGN Market API key. Sign up at ngnmarket.com, copy the key from your developer dashboard (prefix ngm_live_), and export it in the shell your agent inherits so the skill can read it:
    For a single project, drop it in .env.local and have the agent load that file before each run.
  • A supported agent. Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, OpenCode, and other agents that read skill files.
  • Node.js to run the npx skills installer (or install manually with curl).

​
Installation

​
Method 1: Skills CLI (one command, every agent)

The skills CLI detects your agent and drops the skill in the directory that agent reads. One command covers every supported agent:
Drop the -g to install into the current project instead of globally.

​
Method 2: Manual install with curl

Pick your client below and run the matching curl. Use the project commands for an in-repo skill, or the global commands for a cross-project skill that lives in your home directory.

​
Verify it loaded

Open a fresh agent session and ask:
“Using the NGN Market API, what endpoint and plan tier do I need to get a candlestick chart for DANGCEM?”
A correctly loaded skill answers GET /companies/{symbol}/chart?format=ohlcv and notes it requires the Hobby plan. If the agent invents a different endpoint or gets the tier wrong, the skill didn’t load — confirm the file exists at the path your agent reads and that nothing else is shadowing it.
