Model Context Protocol
Use StratProof from inside Claude
StratProof exposes its core tools via the Model Context Protocol. Add us as a custom connector in Claude Desktop (or any MCP client) and you can call our tools directly from a conversation. No signup, no auth.

Claude Desktop
- Settings → Connectors, then Add custom connector.
- Name:
StratProof - URL:
https://stratproof.com/api/mcp - Leave OAuth fields blank. Our MCP tools are public.
- Quit and restart Claude Desktop fully (tray icon, Quit, not just close the window).
Once restarted, ask Claude: “Test this strategy through StratProof: Buy ETH when RSI drops below 30, sell above 70.” Claude will call prove_strategy, get a verdict, and explain it.
Cursor
Settings → MCP → Add new global MCP server:
{
"stratproof": {
"url": "https://stratproof.com/api/mcp"
}
}Claude Code CLI
claude mcp add --transport http stratproof https://stratproof.com/api/mcp
Troubleshooting
- Tools did not appear after adding the connector. Most likely you did not fully quit Claude Desktop. Right-click the system tray / dock icon, Quit, then reopen.
- Tool calls time out.
prove_strategycan take 8-20 seconds because it runs an actual backtest. Server-side timeout is 60s. If it is timing out consistently, tryget_statsfirst to confirm the service is live. - HTTP 401 / 403. Our MCP endpoint is public and does not use OAuth. Remove any OAuth config for this connector.
What is not exposed
User account endpoints (saved strategies, history) and owner-only dashboards are intentionally not in the MCP server. If you think a tool belongs here that is not listed, email support@stratproof.com.
