## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Perp DEX Monitor — Lighter, Aster & Pacifica Funding

**The perp-DEX venue wars, as one scheduled feed** — keyless data across **Lighter, Aster, and Pacifica**: funding rates, open interest, volume, mark/index prices, **cross-venue funding spreads** (the arbitrage signal), and Lighter's tokenized **stock perps** (MRVL, NVDA...). No API key — $0.001/row.

### Who it's for

- **Funding-rate arbitrageurs** — the spread mode shows same-symbol funding differences across venues — long cheap, short rich, collect the basis
- **Perp traders** — OI, volume, and funding across the venues where volume is actually migrating post-Hyperliquid
- **Analysts & funds** — the perp-DEX venue war as structured data; who's winning volume share

### Modes

| Mode | What you get |
|---|---|
| **markets** | Unified perp scan — mark/index px, 24h change, volume, OI, funding per venue |
| **funding** | Funding-rate leaderboard across all venues (extreme first) |
| **spread** | Same-symbol funding **differences across venues** — the arb signal |
| **stock_perps** | Lighter's tokenized equity perps — trade stocks 24/7 on a DEX |
| **watch** | Snapshot for your symbols across every venue — **schedule hourly** |

### Example output

```json
{
  "recordType": "funding_spread", "symbol": "ETH",
  "lowVenue": "aster", "lowFunding": 0.00005,
  "highVenue": "pacifica", "highFunding": 0.00042,
  "spreadBps": 3.7, "annualizedSpreadPct": 40.5
}
```

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("brick_joey_yto/perp-dex-monitor").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("brick_joey_yto/perp-dex-monitor").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call brick_joey_yto/perp-dex-monitor --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,brick_joey_yto/perp-dex-monitor"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
