MCPOpen SourceMIT19.0

by MardiantoS • Finance & Markets

An MCP server that enables LLMs (e.g., Claude) to interact with Alpaca's trading API to view accounts, fetch market data, and place or manage orders.

Example Use Cases

1
Access and summarize a user's Alpaca account and portfolio information via MCP.
2
Fetch real-time quotes and recent historical price bars to inform trading strategies.
3
Place, manage, and cancel market or limit orders programmatically through Alpaca.

Description

This repository implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects LLMs to the Alpaca trading API, exposing account info, positions, market quotes, historical bars, and order operations. It provides helper tools for placing market and limit orders, cancelling orders, and summarizing the portfolio, and integrates with the Alpaca-py SDK. The server uses paper trading by default for safety and is intended for prototyping agent-driven trading workflows (e.g., testing with Claude for Desktop).
