DePIN Infrastructure Project Fetcher
Comprehensive DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) project analysis and information retrieval system for researching, evaluating, and monitoring decentralized infrastructure projects.
Activation Triggers
Core Capabilities
Project Research
- Fetch real-time project metrics and statistics
- Analyze tokenomics and economic models
- Evaluate network coverage and node distribution
- Compare multiple DePIN projects side-by-side
Network Categories
<domain_terminology>
- Wireless Networks: Helium (IoT/5G), Pollen Mobile (cellular)
- Storage Networks: Filecoin, Arweave, Sia
- Compute Networks: Render Network, Akash, Flux
- Sensor Networks: PlanetWatch (air quality), WeatherXM (weather)
- Energy Networks: React Network, Powerledger
- Mapping/Location: Hivemapper (dashcams), DIMO (vehicle data) </domain_terminology>
Implementation Workflow
Step 1: Parse Query Intent
interface DePINQuery {
project_name?: string;
location?: string;
category?: 'wireless' | 'storage' | 'compute' | 'sensor' | 'energy' | 'mapping';
metric_type?: 'coverage' | 'nodes' | 'tokenomics' | 'roi';
}Step 2: Data Retrieval
Execute scripts/fetch-depin-data.ts with parsed parameters:
npx tsx .claude/skills/depin-infrastructure-fetcher/scripts/fetch-depin-data.ts \
--project "helium" \
--location "new-zealand" \
--metrics "coverage,nodes"Step 3: Format Response
Use project-specific templates from references/project-templates/:
- Network statistics summary
- Node deployment requirements
- ROI calculations
- Coverage maps interpretation
Quality Gates
<validation_rules>
- Data freshness: Max 24 hours old
- Source verification: Only trusted APIs (see references/trusted-sources.md)
- ROI calculations: Include all costs (hardware, electricity, maintenance)
- Coverage data: Verify with multiple sources when available </validation_rules>
Output Format
Project Summary Template
PROJECT: [Name]
CATEGORY: [Network Type]
LOCATION: [Coverage Area]
STATUS: [Active Nodes] | [Network Growth]
DESCRIPTION:
[1-2 sentence overview]
KEY METRICS:
- Active Nodes: [count]
- Network Coverage: [area/percentage]
- Token Price: [current]
- Node ROI: [monthly estimate]
DEPLOYMENT:
- Hardware Cost: $[amount]
- Setup Complexity: [Low/Medium/High]
- Maintenance: [requirements]Error Handling
<error_recovery>
- API timeout (5s): Fall back to cached data with freshness warning
- No results: Suggest alternative projects in same category
- Ambiguous query: Ask clarifying questions (location, use case, budget) </error_recovery>
Performance Optimization
- Cache responses for 24 hours using
scripts/cache-manager.ts - Batch multiple project queries into single API calls
- Pre-fetch popular projects during idle time
Security Considerations
Success Metrics
Track via scripts/analytics.ts:
- Query response time (<2s target)
- Data accuracy (>95% match with official sources)
- User satisfaction (follow-up questions indicate success)
