import sys, json
sys.path.insert(0, "/data/workspace/skills/rootdata")
from exports import rd_search, rd_project_detail, rd_funding_rounds

print(rd_search(query="berachain")[:2])
print(rd_project_detail(project_id=3375, include_investors=True).get("project_name"))
print(rd_funding_rounds(page=1, page_size=5).get("total"))
EOF

Available functions in exports.py: rd_init_key, rd_search, rd_id_map, rd_project_detail, rd_funding_rounds, rd_hot_index, rd_job_changes.

First-Time Setup (auto-init key)

RootData provides an anonymous low-privilege key via init API.

  • 429 rate limit
  • 500 internal error

Rate limit:

  • 200 requests / minute / key
  • on 429, use Retry-After header before retry

Usage Notes

  • Keep a cached ROOTDATA_SKILL_KEY to avoid frequent init calls.
  • For research tasks, preferred flow:

1) rd_search → find entity ID 2) rd_project_detail / rd_funding_rounds for deeper analysis

  • Funding rounds endpoint is recent-window only (365 days), mention this explicitly in outputs.
