AI Connector — Analyse Indian F&O inside Claude, ChatGPT and Codex
One MCP server. 18+ live options-data tools. Read-only. Works with any MCP client. Free for logged-in users.
https://optionalgo.in/mcpWhat is the OptionAlgo MCP server?
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is Anthropic's open standard for giving AI assistants structured access to external data. Our MCP server exposes 18+ tools — live option chain, GEX, dealer flow, OI change, IV rank, straddle intelligence, sentiment, expected-move analytics — as callable functions any MCP-compatible client can invoke. Once connected, Claude / ChatGPT / Cursor / Codex can query the live NIFTY chain, compute a strategy, or explain a GEX regime IN THE CHAT WINDOW using real OptionAlgo data. No screenshot uploads. No copy-paste. Just ask.
Which AI assistants does it work with?
Claude Desktop / Claude.ai — one-click OAuth via the Connectors settings. Add `https://optionalgo.in/mcp` as a custom connector; log in with your OptionAlgo account; every conversation now has options-data superpowers. Claude Code — add via `claude mcp add optionalgo https://optionalgo.in/mcp` in any project. ChatGPT — via a custom GPT with Actions pointing at our OpenAPI spec (requires ChatGPT Plus). Cursor / Codex — MCP support ships in recent versions; add the URL to your MCP config JSON. Any other MCP client — the endpoint speaks the standard protocol; if your client can list_tools() / call_tool(), it works.
What tools does the AI get?
Chain tools: `get_option_chain(symbol, expiry)` returns the full strike-by-strike CE/PE with IV, delta, gamma, theta, vega. `get_multi_expiry_chain(symbol)` returns every listed expiry in one call. GEX tools: `get_gex_profile(symbol)` returns net gamma, γ-flip, walls. `get_gamma_regime(symbol)` returns a one-word regime classification. Flow tools: `get_oi_change(symbol)`, `get_dealer_flow(symbol)`, `get_option_volume(symbol)`. Sentiment: `get_smart_money_positioning()` returns the FII/DII/Client/Pro OI grid + smart-money-divergence flag. Straddle: `get_straddle_intelligence(symbol)` returns current straddle price, decay, IV rank. Screeners: 50+ pre-built scanners exposed as tools. Everything is READ-ONLY — no trading, no writes.
Example prompts once connected
> "What's the current NIFTY γ-flip and what regime are we in?"
> "Build me an iron condor on BANKNIFTY that's aligned with today's OI walls."
> "Which strikes saw the most put writing today on SENSEX?"
> "Compare the FII/DII smart-money positioning today vs yesterday. Any divergence?"
The AI answers using live OptionAlgo data pulled through the MCP calls — every number cited is real and current. No hallucinations of made-up strikes.
Security and permissions
The MCP server is read-only. There is no `place_order` tool, no `modify_holdings` tool, no write access to your account. It cannot trade, cannot transfer funds, cannot cancel orders. Auth is per-user (OAuth for Claude, bearer token for ChatGPT/Cursor) and scoped to whichever tier your OptionAlgo account has. All calls are logged and rate-limited. Revoke access anytime from your account settings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this free?
Yes for logged-in OptionAlgo users. Free-tier accounts get the free-tier tool subset (chain, GEX, OI). Order Flow / Custom-Algo tiers expose the corresponding advanced tools.
Do I need Claude Pro or ChatGPT Plus?
For Claude the free tier works via the Connectors setting. For ChatGPT you need Plus to create a custom GPT with Actions. Cursor / Codex work on their free tiers.
Can the AI place trades?
No. The MCP server is read-only. It has no order-placement tool exposed. Trading requires the /algo dashboard or your broker directly.
What's the difference between MCP and the AI chat inside /dashboard?
The in-dashboard chat is a fixed Claude Haiku instance we bill. MCP lets you use YOUR OWN Claude/ChatGPT/Cursor with OptionAlgo data — better for long analyses, unlimited length, and integrates with whatever else your AI has access to.
How do I revoke access?
Account settings → Connected apps → Revoke. Or rotate your bearer token; the old one dies immediately.
Which is faster — the dashboard AI or MCP-connected Claude?
MCP is faster for complex multi-step queries because it batches multiple tool calls and streams the response through your Claude Pro subscription (no re-billing per turn).
