TradingAgentStack MCP server

A small, read-only MCP server that lets Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients search the TradingAgentStack directory: broker MCP servers, broker and market-data APIs, agent frameworks, backtesters and security tools. Each entry includes paper vs live trading, order approval and safety controls, pricing, rate limits, an official source and a last-checked date.

It can't place trades or connect to any broker. It only reads the open dataset in ../data/tools.json (CC BY 4.0).

Tools

ToolWhat it does
search_tools(query, category?, limit?)Keyword search, with an optional category filter
get_tool(slug)Full record for one tool, e.g. alpaca-mcp-server
compare_brokers(a, b)Side-by-side comparison of two tools
list_categories()Categories with counts

Example prompts: "Which broker MCP servers support paper trading?", "Compare Alpaca MCP and Tradier MCP on safety controls."

Install

Needs Node.js 18 or later.

Claude Desktop

Add this to claude_desktop_config.json (Settings → Developer → Edit Config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tradingagentstack": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "tradingagentstack-mcp"] }
  }
}
Cursor

Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or .cursor/mcp.json in a project):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tradingagentstack": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "tradingagentstack-mcp"] }
  }
}
Claude Code
claude mcp add tradingagentstack -- npx -y tradingagentstack-mcp
From source
git clone https://github.com/intoApex/ai-trading-tools && cd ai-trading-tools/mcp-server
npm install && npm test        # copies ../data/tools.json and runs a stdio smoke test
node src/index.js              # or point your client's "command" at this file

The server uses the dataset bundled with the package. To use the latest data from GitHub instead, set TRADINGAGENTSTACK_LIVE=1; it falls back to the bundled copy if the fetch fails.
