## Description
Build, backtest, and deploy quantitative trading strategies from your AI agent.
## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):
```json
"mcpServers": {
"cpzai": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y","cpzai"]
}
}
```
## Documentation & README
CPZAI MCP Server
Model Context Protocol server for AI agent access to CPZAI
---
A production-grade [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server that exposes [CPZAI](https://ai.cpz-lab.com) capabilities — strategy management, backtesting, multi-broker order routing (Alpaca / Interactive Brokers / FIX), portfolios, risk analytics, market data — as tools for any MCP-compatible AI agent (Claude, Cursor, GPT, etc.).
The hosted endpoint at `https://mcp.cpz-lab.com/mcp` is the only supported way to connect. This repo exists for transparency: anyone wiring their broker API keys through an AI agent should be able to read the exact code that handles those keys.
## Quick Start
You'll need a CPZ API key + secret. Create one at [ai.cpz-lab.com/settings/api-keys](https://ai.cpz-lab.com/settings/api-keys).
### Cursor
Add to `.cursor/mcp.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cpzai": {
"url": "https://mcp.cpz-lab.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"X-CPZ-Key": "your_cpz_key",
"X-CPZ-Secret": "your_cpz_secret"
}
}
}
}
```
### Claude Desktop
Add to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cpzai": {
"url": "https://mcp.cpz-lab.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"X-CPZ-Key": "your_cpz_key",
"X-CPZ-Secret": "your_cpz_secret"
}
}
}
}
```
### Claude (web / mobile) via OAuth
The server speaks OAuth 2.1 + PKCE at `https://mcp.cpz-lab.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`. Use Claude's "Connect a server" flow and point it at `https://mcp.cpz-lab.com/mcp`.

CPZ Platform REST API
```
**Design decisions:**
- **Stateless transport.** Each `POST /mcp` creates a fresh server instance — no session tracking, scales horizontally without coordination.
- **Thin protocol adapter.** Validates the API key, then proxies tool calls to the CPZ REST API. Zero business logic in the MCP layer; what you see in `src/` is what runs in production.
- **Key auth.** Agents authenticate with CPZ platform API keys (`X-CPZ-Key` / `X-CPZ-Secret`) — the same keys used by the REST API and the [`cpz` Python SDK](https://pypi.org/project/cpz/).
- **Paper-only by default.** Live trading on a strategy requires explicit per-strategy promotion in the platform.

## Local development
```bash
npm install
export CPZ_API_BASE_URL=https://api.cpz-lab.com
export CPZ_SERVICE_KEY=your_service_key
npm run dev
# server starts on http://localhost:3001
```
### Tests + type check
```bash
npm test # single run
npm run test:watch # watch mode
npx tsc --noEmit # type check
```
### Build
```bash
npm run build # compiles TS → dist/
npm start # runs the compiled server
```
### Docker
```bash
docker build -t cpzai-mcp-server .
docker run --rm -p 3001:3001 \
-e CPZ_API_BASE_URL=https://api.cpz-lab.com \
-e CPZ_SERVICE_KEY=your_service_key \
cpzai-mcp-server
```
## Security model
- All connections HTTPS with TLS 1.3 at the edge.
- API credentials are forwarded in HTTP headers and **never logged**.
- Per-request API key validation against the platform's `api_keys` table.
- All data access is user-scoped via the `user_id` derived from the validated key.
- OAuth tokens (when used) are held in server memory only — never persisted.
See the [privacy policy](https://mcp.cpz-lab.com/privacy) for the full data-handling story.
## Self-hosting
We don't currently support self-hosting. Use the hosted endpoint at `https://mcp.cpz-lab.com/mcp` with your CPZ API key. The hosted server is the same code in this repo plus AWS infrastructure (ALB, ECS Fargate, WAF, secrets) that's not part of this repo.
If you have a strong reason to self-host (e.g. air-gapped trading desk), open an issue and we'll talk.
## Contributing
Issues and PRs welcome. Before submitting:
- `npx tsc --noEmit` must pass
- `npm test` must pass
- Keep changes minimal and aligned with existing patterns
