Key API

NeuralTraderMCP

The MCP server class exposing trading tools.

import { NeuralTraderMCP } from '@neural-trader/mcp';

const mcp = new NeuralTraderMCP({
  port: 3001,
  transport: 'stdio',
  engine: { mode: 'paper', capital: 100000 },
});

Constructor Options:

Option	Type	Default	Description
`port`	`number`	`3001`	Server port (for SSE transport)
`transport`	`string`	`'stdio'`	Transport: `'stdio'`, `'sse'`, `'ws'`
`engine`	`EngineOptions`	defaults	Neural Trader engine config
`authToken`	`string`	`undefined`	Optional authentication token
`enabledTools`	`string[]`	all	Subset of tools to enable
`readOnly`	`boolean`	`false`	Disable trade execution tools
`maxConcurrent`	`number`	`10`	Max concurrent tool calls

Methods:

Method	Returns	Description
`start()`	`Promise<void>`	Start the MCP server
`stop()`	`Promise<void>`	Stop the MCP server
`getStatus()`	`ServerStatus`	Server and engine status
`getTools()`	`ToolDefinition[]`	List all available tools
`enableTool(name)`	`void`	Enable a specific tool
`disableTool(name)`	`void`	Disable a specific tool

Tool Categories

The 87+ tools are organized into categories:

Category	Count	Description
Market Data	15	Price quotes, OHLCV, order books
Technical Analysis	20	RSI, MACD, Bollinger, SMA, EMA, etc.
Strategy Management	12	Create, configure, backtest strategies
Order Execution	10	Place, modify, cancel orders
Portfolio	8	Positions, balance, allocation
Risk Management	7	VaR, exposure, correlation, limits
Neural Models	8	Train, predict, evaluate alpha models
Backtesting	5	Run, analyze, compare backtests
Alerts	2	Price and condition alerts

Key MCP Tools

Market Data Tools:

`get_pnl`	Get realized/unrealized P&L

Common Patterns

Claude Desktop Integration

Add to Claude Desktop claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "neural-trader": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@neural-trader/mcp@latest"],
      "env": {
        "NEURAL_TRADER_MODE": "paper"
      }
    }
  }
}

Programmatic MCP Server

import { NeuralTraderMCP } from '@neural-trader/mcp';

const mcp = new NeuralTraderMCP({
  transport: 'stdio',
  engine: { mode: 'paper', capital: 50000 },
  readOnly: false,
});

await mcp.start();

Read-Only Market Data Server

import { NeuralTraderMCP } from '@neural-trader/mcp';

const mcp = new NeuralTraderMCP({
  transport: 'sse',
  port: 3001,
  readOnly: true,
  enabledTools: ['get_quote', 'get_ohlcv', 'search_symbols', 'get_market_status'],
});

await mcp.start();
