COT Disaggregated, futures only
Use CFTC Public Reporting (cftc) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "COT Disaggregated, futures only" (cot-disaggregated-futures).

Example options: market_and_exchange_names=CRUDE OIL, LIGHT SWEET - NEW YORK MERCANTILE EXCHANGE. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "cftc" and capability "cot-disaggregated-futures". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "cftc" and capability "cot-financial-futures".
