openalgo-mcp

This is an MCP server for OpenAlgo - (logic is copied from https://github.com/marketcalls/openalgo )

It has been repackaged for use as a module without necessity of cloning repos and installing python script.

Requirements:

• Local 3.12 or higher Python

• uvx installed

How to Install uvx (uv)

• Universal (Windows, Linux, Mac):

  pip install uv

• Mac (with Homebrew):

  brew install uv

• Prebuilt binaries:
  Download from uv releases for your platform.

After installation, the uvx command will be available in your terminal.

Divergence from upstream

This package talks to the OpenAlgo REST API (/api/v1/*) directly over httpx. It deliberately does not depend on the openalgo Python library, so installs stay small and work on musl/Alpine images (the library ships a Rust abi3 core with no musllinux wheel).

Consequence: the 9 upstream research tools that compute indicators locally via openalgo.ta (calculate_indicator, get_trend_snapshot, get_momentum_snapshot, get_volatility_snapshot, get_support_resistance, detect_signals, screen_instruments, multi_timeframe_analysis, correlation_beta) are not included. They are pure local math, not REST endpoints, so they cannot be proxied. Everything that maps to an API endpoint is covered - 40 tools.

get_historical_data matches upstream behaviour: start_date/end_date are optional, bars (default 20) or lookback_days size the window, epoch timestamps are normalised to ISO 8601 (IST for intraday intervals), and the response carries count/returned/ truncated metadata.
