Introduction
# Exchange Rates (XE.com)
Fetch live mid-market exchange rates from XE.com via headless browser.
## Usage
```bash node ~/clawd/skills/exchange-rates/scripts/xe-rate.mjs <FROM> <TO> [AMOUNT] ```
**Examples:** ```bash node ~/clawd/skills/exchange-rates/scripts/xe-rate.mjs USD INR # 1 USD → INR node ~/clawd/skills/exchange-rates/scripts/xe-rate.mjs EUR USD 500 # 500 EUR → USD node ~/clawd/skills/exchange-rates/scripts/xe-rate.mjs THB INR 1000 # 1000 THB → INR ```
**Output:** JSON with `amount`, `from`, `to`, `rate`, `converted`, `source`, `timestamp`
## Response Format
Present results cleanly: - Show the converted amount prominently - Include the unit rate (1 FROM = X TO) - Mention source is XE.com mid-market rate - For amounts > 1, show both unit rate and total conversion
## Notes
- Uses Playwright + Browserless (CDP) to scrape XE.com - Falls back to exchangerate-api.com if XE fails - Currency codes: standard 3-letter ISO 4217 (USD, INR, EUR, GBP, THB, JPY, etc.) - Rates are mid-market (not buy/sell spreads) - Script takes ~4-5 seconds per lookup (browser overhead)
