Bring your own Claude
The VYX MCP server lets your own AI client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or claude.ai — read live order flow and drive your board through the Model Context Protocol. It exposes VYX as tools (actions the model can take), resources (read-only context it can attach), and prompts (slash-command templates). It is analysis-only and non-custodial — the model can read, configure your board, and trade the simulated paper rail, but never places a live order.
Remote server (recommended)
The hosted server is the zero-install path. Add it as a custom connector in your Claude client and authorize with an API key as a Bearer token. It speaks Streamable HTTP, works on mobile claude.ai, and auto-updates. Mint a key under Settings → API & integrations on any paid plan.

Each tool maps to an API route and the scope it needs. Read tools work with any paid key; write tools require the matching write scope.
- vyx_scan — your board scored by your active signals, with top movers.
- vyx_symbol — one symbol's microstructure (candles, L10 depth, CVD/OFI, funding/OI) by ticker (BTC) or numeric id.
- vyx_pulse — the live order-flow pulse across the universe.
- vyx_list — list your signals, alerts, regimes, traders, or workspaces.
- vyx_create_signal — create or update a composite signal (combine: consensus, linear, or strict).
- vyx_create_alert — create or update a formula alert.
- vyx_set_server_side — toggle 24/7 server-side execution for a signal (Pro and up).
- vyx_analyst_latest — read the AI analyst's latest notes.
- vyx_trader_decisions — read a trader's auditable decision log.
- vyx_paper_positions — read your simulated paper positions.
Resources
Resources are read-only context you can attach so the model grounds its reasoning in your live board and the analyst's view — two analysts at once.
- vyx://signals — your signal definitions.
- vyx://board — your scored board and latest engine scores.
- vyx://pulse — the live order-flow pulse snapshot.
- vyx://analyst — the AI analyst's latest notes.
Example prompts
Once connected, ask in plain language and the model picks the right tools.
- "What is the order-flow pulse right now — where are funding and aggression concentrated?"
- "Scan my board and summarize the three strongest signals and why."
- "Build me a signal that fires when the book fractures: spread blowout plus an unstable spread."
- "Inspect BTC's 1h microstructure and tell me what depth and CVD are doing."
What it will never do
The MCP server is a research and analysis surface. It recommends and simulates; it does not execute live trades or hold custody. The live-trading path is closed to the API entirely. Your AI can help you read the market and shape your board — the decision to act stays with you, in the app.
