DeFi TVL API
DeFi TVL API: current total value locked in USD for any DeFi protocol by DefiLlama slug ('aave', 'uniswap', 'lido' — full list at defillama.com/protocols). Aggregates across every chain the protocol deploys on. Use for protocol health checks, DeFi rankings, risk screening, and market research by autonomous agents. Slugs are lowercase. Cached up to 5 minutes; freshness reported in meta.fetchedAt.
Paid test badge: not yet. The checks above are free: we call the tool without paying and read the payment request it sends back. The Verified badge needs paid calls whose answers match the promised output, and nobody can buy a badge.
