What problem does it solve? Evaluating DeFi protocols and finding buildable market opportunities requires trustworthy on-chain data, but manually researching TVL, fees, yields, and stablecoin flows across chains is slow and error-prone. This Skill turns the free DefiLlama API into a structured research workflow for identifying growing protocols and underserved niches, especially on Solana. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Protocol and chain TVL analysis: Query endpoints like /protocols, /v2/chains, and /overview/fees to rank protocols by TVL, growth, and revenue health. - Opportunity detection framework: Apply six documented patterns (cross-chain gaps, aggregation, infrastructure gaps, yield vacuums, stablecoin flows, fee/TVL mismatch) to spot what to build. - Structured phase handoff: Write research results into .superstack/idea-context.md with top protocols, opportunities, and integration targets for downstream build phases. - Use Case: Ask which Solana DeFi categories are growing fastest, and receive a ranked table of protocols with TVL, 7-day change, fee revenue, and three data-backed build opportunities. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to show you the DeFi landscape on Solana, including which protocols are growing, where the gaps are, and what you should build.
