Reads TradingView's desktop macOS app for quotes, options chains, and chart state via
opencli
and a CDP attach to the running TradingView.app process. Powered by the
tradingview
plugin in this repo's
opencli-plugins/tradingview
tree (a separate plugin from opencli's built-in adapters, installed via opencli's monorepo subpath syntax).
This skill is read-only.
Designed for analysis: pulling options chains, checking IV/greeks, capturing chart state. It does NOT place trades, post ideas, modify watchlists, or change chart layouts.
Important
Unlike browser-based opencli readers (twitter, linkedin), this one talks directly to a running TradingView desktop app over Chrome DevTools Protocol. The user must (a) have
TradingView.app
installed, and (b) be logged in inside that app. The plugin handles relaunching with the debug port.
How it works
data commands harvest session cookies via CDP
Storage.getCookies
, then fire HTTP requests from Node directly. Page-context fetch is blocked by browser CORS preflight even from TradingView's own pages — the desktop app uses Electron's main process (Node network stack) to bypass this, and we replicate that path. No Browser Bridge extension required, no
apps.yaml
registration needed.
Step 1: Ensure opencli + Plugin Are Installed and Ready
Current environment status:
!(command -v opencli && opencli tradingview status 2>&1 | head -5 && echo "READY" || echo "SETUP_NEEDED") 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT_INSTALLED"
