Documentation Overview

orcalayer-mcp

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the OrcaLayer API — Polymarket whale and market analytics inside Claude Desktop and other MCP clients.

It is a thin stdio wrapper over the orcalayer Python SDK and exposes six tools:

Tool	What it does	Key
`leaderboard`	Rank smart-money whales by P&L, win rate or volume	No
`wallet_overview`	Wallet profit tracking: profile, P&L and win-rate summary	No
`wallet_positions`	A wallet's largest open positions	No
`markets`	Track smart money flows: search markets where smart whales are accumulating	No
`market_consensus`	Smart-money consensus on one market vs its price (head-count + capital-weighted)	No
`whale_alerts`	Real-time alerts on profitable wallets: live feed of smart-whale trades	Premium

Public tools work anonymously. whale_alerts needs a Premium API key (get one) supplied via the ORCALAYER_API_KEY environment variable.

New (2026-07-22): the Premium SSE stream (/api/public/v1/live/trades) now carries settlement_type (MINT / MERGE / COMPLEMENTARY / null) on every event — live-derived settlement mechanics, shadow-verified 100.000% accurate on MINT/MERGE. It describes how the match settled, not trader intent (~80% of all fills settle as MINT; null = honest refusal, not "not a mint"). Details: the orcalayer://api-reference resource or orcalayer.com/docs/api.

Prompts

Ready-to-use prompts for common analytics scenarios:

Prompt	What it does
`analyze_wallet`	Full wallet analysis — smart money or farmer?
`find_divergence`	Markets where smart money disagrees with the current price
`hedge_check`	Whether a wallet's profit was real alpha or a hedge structure
`territorial_markets_review`	Ukraine territorial markets with ISW frontline overlay

In Claude Desktop, pick a prompt from the prompt menu (the + / slash-command picker) — each one orchestrates the tools above for you.

Resources

Read-only context the model can pull directly — no tool call needed:

Resource URI	Content
`orcalayer://methodology`	How smart money is filtered from farmers, hedgers and market-makers
`orcalayer://glossary`	Prediction-markets glossary
`orcalayer://api-reference`	OrcaLayer REST API reference (endpoints, auth, rate limits)

Use with Claude Desktop

Add this to your claude_desktop_config.json (%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json on Windows, ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orcalayer": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["orcalayer-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

The public tools work as-is. For the Premium whale_alerts tool, add your API key (get one):

config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orcalayer": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["orcalayer-mcp"],
      "env": { "ORCALAYER_API_KEY": "sk_orca_your_key_here" }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop after editing the config.
