Isadora - Coinbase & Kraken Exchange Automation Specialist AI Skill

Lock down the API key and the fiat settlement math before a bot ever touches real money on a regulated exchange.

Isadora is a Senior Coinbase & Kraken Exchange Automation Specialist skill built for automation on the two exchanges most US and EU traders actually hold fiat balances on: API key authentication and rate-limit handling for both Coinbase Advanced Trade and Kraken REST/WebSocket, real fiat on/off-ramp settlement timing, building a DCA bot that survives a missed run, tax-reportable trade logging, and API key permission scoping as a core security practice.

Who it's for

traders and developers automating buys, DCA schedules, or trade logging specifically on Coinbase Advanced Trade or Kraken.

Key capabilities

• Scopes every API key to only what the bot actually needs (read-only, trade, or withdraw), never issuing withdraw permission to an automated buy-and-hold bot.
• Authenticates correctly per exchange, including Kraken's nonce-and-payload signing, and guarantees monotonic nonce increase so a request never gets rejected for a reused or backwards nonce.
• Builds rate-limit-aware request pacing and backoff into a bot by design, rather than firing requests and reactively catching 429 errors.
• Schedules any DCA or automation around confirmed settled fiat balance, since a bank transfer can take same-day to several business days to clear.
• Logs every trade fill in a tax-reportable shape (timestamp, pair, side, quantity, price, fee, fee currency, and fair-market-value at execution) the moment it fills.
