exist in the MCP server.

MCP Mode

Read and strictly follow references/mcp.md, then execute this skill's VIP/fee query workflow.

• SKILL.md keeps intent routing and rendering rules.
• references/mcp.md is the authoritative MCP execution layer for account/fee data retrieval and safe output behavior.

Quick Start

Below are the most common prompts to get started quickly:

1. Query VIP tier

> What is my VIP level?

1. Query trading fees

> Show me the spot and futures trading fees.

1. Query VIP tier and fees together

> Check my VIP level and trading fees.

Domain Knowledge

Tool Mapping by Domain

Key Concepts

• VIP Tier: Gate assigns VIP levels (VIP 0 – VIP 16) based on trading volume and asset holdings. Higher VIP tiers unlock lower fee rates.
• Spot Fee: The maker/taker fee rate applied to spot trading pairs.
• Futures Fee: The maker/taker fee rate applied to futures/contract trading, differentiated by settlement currency (BTC, USDT, USD).
• The cex_wallet_get_wallet_fee tool returns fee rates for both spot and futures in a single response. Use the settle parameter to query futures-specific fees.

API Behavior Notes

• Account-level pricing: Gate fee rates are determined by the user's VIP tier. The currency_pair parameter does not change the returned fee values — all trading pairs share the same account-level rate.
• settle parameter scope: The settle parameter only affects futures fee fields (futuresMakerFee / futuresTakerFee). Spot fees (makerFee / takerFee) remain unchanged regardless of settle.
• Invalid currency_pair handling: The API does not return an error for non-existent trading pairs. It silently returns the default account-level fees. Do not treat a successful response as confirmation that the trading pair exists.

Workflow

When the user asks about VIP tier or trading fees, follow this sequence.

Step 1: Identify Query Type

Classify the request into one of these categories:

1. VIP tier query — user wants to know their current VIP level
2. Fee rate query — user wants to know spot and/or futures trading fee rates
3. Combined query — user wants both VIP tier and fee information

Key data to extract:

• query_type: "vip", "fee", or "combined"
• currency_pair (optional): specific trading pair for fee lookup
• settle (optional): futures settlement currency (BTC / USDT / USD)

Step 2: Query VIP Tier (if needed)

If query_type is "vip" or "combined":

Call cex_account_get_account_detail with:

• No parameters required

Key data to extract:

• vip_level: the user's current VIP tier (e.g., VIP 0, VIP 1, etc.)

Step 3: Query Trading Fee Rates (if needed)

If query_type is "fee" or "combined":

Call cex_wallet_get_wallet_fee with:

• currency_pair (optional): specify trading pair context (note: fee rates are account-level and do not vary by pair)
• settle (optional): futures settlement currency — affects futures fee fields only

Key data to extract:

• maker_fee_rate: spot maker fee rate
• taker_fee_rate: spot taker fee rate
• futures_maker_fee_rate: futures maker fee rate
• futures_taker_fee_rate: futures taker fee rate

Step 4: Return Result

Format the response according to the Report Template. The API (cex_wallet_get_wallet_fee) always returns the full fee structure (spot + futures + delivery). Filter the output based on the user's original intent:

• If user asked about spot fees only → show only makerFee / takerFee
• If user asked about futures/contract fees only → show only futuresMakerFee / futuresTakerFee
• If user asked about trading fees (general) → show both spot and futures
• If user asked about VIP only → show only VIP level, no fee data
• If user specified a currency_pair → append a note in the response: "Note: The API returns account-level fee rates. The fee shown applies to all trading pairs; if the pair you specified does not exist, the result still reflects your default account fee rate."

Key data to extract:

• VIP level (if queried)
• Spot maker/taker fee rates (if queried)
• Futures maker/taker fee rates (if queried)
