> optimizing-defi-yields
Find and compare DeFi yield opportunities across protocols with APY calculations, risk assessment, and optimization recommendations. Use when searching for yield farming opportunities, comparing DeFi protocols, or analyzing APY/APR rates. Trigger with phrases like "find DeFi yields", "compare APY", "best yield farming", "optimize DeFi returns", "stablecoin yields", or "liquidity pool rates".

Overview
Find and compare DeFi yield opportunities across protocols. Aggregates data from DeFiLlama and other sources to provide APY/APR comparisons, risk assessments, and optimization recommendations for yield farming strategies.
Prerequisites
Before using this skill, ensure you have:
- Python 3.8+ installed
- Internet access for API queries
- Understanding of DeFi concepts (APY, APR, TVL, impermanent loss)
Instructions
- Search for yield opportunities across all chains or filter by a specific chain:
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --top 20 python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --chain ethereum --top 10 - Filter by criteria -- minimum TVL (for safety), asset type, or protocol:
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --min-tvl 10000000 --top 15 # 10000000 = 10M limit python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --asset USDC --chain ethereum python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --protocol aave,compound,curve - Apply risk filters -- show only audited protocols or filter by risk level (
--risk low,--risk medium,--risk high):python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --audited-only --min-tvl 1000000 # 1000000 = 1M limit python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --risk low --min-apy 3 - Analyze specific opportunities -- get detailed pool breakdown or compare protocols:
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --pool "aave-v3-usdc-ethereum" --detailed python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --compare aave,compound,spark --asset USDC - Export results to JSON or CSV for further analysis:
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --top 50 --format json --output yields.json python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/yield_optimizer.py --chain ethereum --format csv --output eth_yields.csv

Error Handling
See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/errors.md for comprehensive error handling.
Common issues:
- API timeout: Uses cached data with staleness warning
- No pools found: Broaden search criteria
- Invalid protocol: Check supported protocols list
Examples
See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/examples.md for detailed usage examples.
Quick Examples
Find stablecoin yields:
python yield_optimizer.py --asset USDC,USDT,DAI --min-tvl 10000000 # 10000000 = 10M limit
Low-risk opportunities:
python yield_optimizer.py --risk low --audited-only --min-apy 2
Multi-chain search:
python yield_optimizer.py --chain ethereum,arbitrum,polygon --top 20
Export top yields:
python yield_optimizer.py --top 100 --format json --output all_yields.json
Configuration
Settings in ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/config/settings.yaml:
- Default chain: Primary chain to search
- Cache TTL: How long to cache API responses
- Risk weights: Customize risk scoring factors
- Min TVL default: Default minimum TVL filter
