Interactive Brokers API FastMCP Server
A server implementation for Interactive Brokers' API that allows LLMs to interact with your IB account using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
Overview
This project creates a middleware server that connects to Interactive Brokers Gateway and exposes its functionality through the FastMCP framework. This allows LLMs like Claude to interact with your IB account, retrieve portfolio information, and potentially execute trades.
Features
Connect to Interactive Brokers Gateway via the official IB API
Support multiple simultaneous client connections through FastMCP
Expose IB functionality as MCP tools and resources
Connection status monitoring
Error handling and logging
Prerequisites
Python 3.11+
