🔌 Connect the MCP Server

Strategy DEX exposes its full engine as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server — 19 tools any AI assistant can call directly. Add the endpoint once, then ask your assistant things like “where’s the strongest setup right now?” or “analyze SOL” and it runs the real engine.

MCP ENDPOINT

https://straw-pearl.vercel.app/api/mcp

Claude (Desktop & Web)

Claude has native MCP support through Connectors. This is the smoothest way to use the server.

Open Claude, go to Settings.
Open the Connectors (or Integrations) section.
Click "Add custom connector".
Paste the endpoint: https://straw-pearl.vercel.app/api/mcp
Save. Start a new conversation so Claude loads the tools.
Ask naturally — e.g. "hunt for the best setups" or "give me a trade setup for ETH".

💡 If you added the connector before and don’t see all 19 tools, remove it and add it again so Claude re-reads the tool list, then open a fresh chat.

Cursor / Windsurf / IDEs

MCP-capable editors accept the server via a small JSON config. Add this to your MCP settings file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "strategy-dex": {
      "url": "https://straw-pearl.vercel.app/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Reload the editor. The 19 tools appear in the assistant’s tool list.

Any MCP client (generic)

The server speaks MCP over JSON-RPC 2.0 using the Streamable HTTP transport. Point any compliant client at the endpoint — no API key, no SDK, read-only.

Transport: Streamable HTTP (POST for calls, GET for discovery)
Protocol version: 2024-11-05
Auth: none (CORS-enabled, public, read-only tools)

Verify it's live

Open the endpoint in a browser — a GET returns the server info and tool list:

https://straw-pearl.vercel.app/api/mcp

Or call a tool directly with curl:

curl -X POST https://straw-pearl.vercel.app/api/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call",
       "params":{"name":"scan_live_signals","arguments":{"symbol":"BTC"}}}'
