Orderly Network MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing documentation and SDK patterns for Orderly Network - an omnichain perpetual futures trading infrastructure.

Quick Start

Install the MCP server with one command for your AI client:

npx @orderly.network/mcp-server init --client <client>

Supported clients: claude, cursor, vscode, codex, opencode

Examples

# OpenCode
npx @orderly.network/mcp-server init --client opencode

# Claude Code
npx @orderly.network/mcp-server init --client claude

# Cursor
npx @orderly.network/mcp-server init --client cursor

# VS Code (with Copilot)
npx @orderly.network/mcp-server init --client vscode

# Interactive mode (prompts for client selection)
npx @orderly.network/mcp-server init

This command will:

1. Create the appropriate configuration file for your AI client
2. Install @orderly.network/mcp-server as a dev dependency
3. Guide you through the next steps

After installation: Restart your AI client and try asking: "How do I connect to Orderly Network?"

Installation

Quick Install (Recommended)

Use the CLI to automatically configure your AI client:

npx @orderly.network/mcp-server init --client <client>

Available clients:

Manual Setup

If you prefer to configure manually or the automatic setup doesn't work for your client:

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18 or higher
• Yarn (or npm)

Setup from Source

1. Clone or create the project:

cd orderly-mcp

2. Install dependencies:

yarn install

3. Build the project:

yarn build

Hosted Server

A publicly hosted instance is available at https://mcp.orderly.network.

Health check:

curl https://mcp.orderly.network/health

Use in MCP client config (Streamable HTTP):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orderly": {
      "url": "https://mcp.orderly.network/"
    }
  }
}

Running the Server

The MCP server supports two modes:

1. Stdio Mode (Default - for local MCP clients)

Use this for local AI assistants:

yarn start

Manual Configuration

If not using the automatic installer, add this configuration to your AI client:

Claude Code (.mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orderly": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@orderly.network/mcp-server@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orderly": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@orderly.network/mcp-server@latest"]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (.vscode/mcp.json):

{
  "servers": {
    "orderly": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@orderly.network/mcp-server@latest"]
    }
  }
}

OpenCode (.opencode/mcp.json):

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "mcp": {
    "orderly": {
      "type": "local",
      "command": ["npx", "@orderly.network/mcp-server@latest"],
      "enabled": true
    }
  }
}

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml):

[mcp_servers.orderly]
command = "npx"
args = ["@orderly.network/mcp-server@latest"]

2. HTTP Mode (for self-hosted deployments)

Run as an HTTP server for remote access:

yarn start:http

The server will start on port 3000 (or PORT env var):

• MCP endpoint: http://localhost:3000/
• Health check: http://localhost:3000/health

Note: A public instance is already deployed at https://mcp.orderly.network - see Hosted Server above.

Docker Deployment:

# Build the image
docker build -t orderly-mcp .

# Run the container
docker run -p 3000:3000 orderly-mcp

The Docker image runs in stateless HTTP mode by default.

Development

For development with auto-rebuild:

yarn dev

This project uses ESLint and Prettier for code quality:

# Run linting
yarn lint

# Fix linting issues
yarn lint:fix

# Format code
