MCP Server

Published npm package with 21 tools. Connect CRYPTYX to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP-compatible AI agent with a single npx command.

What it does

The @cryptyx/mcp-server package exposes the full CRYPTYX intelligence layer as Model Context Protocol tools. Any MCP-compatible client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, or a custom agent — can query conviction scores, backtest signals, scan regimes, and pull market data without writing a single API call. The server handles authentication, request formatting, and response parsing.

Getting started

Run the server with npx. Set your API key as an environment variable:

npx @cryptyx/mcp-server

For Claude Desktop, add this to your configuration file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cryptyx": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@cryptyx/mcp-server"],
      "env": { "CRYPTYX_API_KEY": "cx_your_key" }
    }
  }
}

Once configured, the 21 tools appear automatically in your client's tool list. No additional setup required.

Key capabilities

21 tools across 5 categories:

  • Market Data (6) — asset snapshots, market pulse, price history, asset search, live prices, liquidity depth
  • Factor Intelligence (4) — conviction scores, factor rankings, regime detection, featured metrics

What to try first

  • "Show me the current regime for BTC"
