MCP server

Endpoint: https://papertrade-sdk.pages.dev/mcp

It speaks MCP over Streamable HTTP, stateless: one POST per JSON-RPC 2.0 message (batches are accepted), no session header, no login. Protocol versions 2025-06-18, 2025-03-26 and 2024-11-05 are supported; an unknown client version gets 2025-06-18.

Everything is read-only. The tools read the public Papertrade API, run the SDK's verified math, or build unsigned EIP-712 payloads. No tool signs, sends, deposits, withdraws or places an order. Wallet signing stays in the user's own wallet. Every tool carries readOnlyHint: true and destructiveHint: false.

Transport details#

Methods: initialize, ping, tools/list, tools/call, plus empty resources/list and prompts/list. Protocol errors use the standard codes (-32700 parse, -32600 invalid request, -32601 unknown method, -32602 unknown tool or bad params). Bad tool arguments and upstream outages come back as a normal result with isError: true and a message the model can act on. Results include content text and structuredContent matching each tool's outputSchema.

Try it#

curl -s https://papertrade-sdk.pages.dev/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"papertrade_estimate_position","arguments":{"market":"BTC","side":"long","marginUsd":100,"leverage":500,"priceMovePct":0.1}}}'

A real result (BTC at 82,800.3 when this was written):

{
  "market": "BTC", "side": "long", "marginUsd": 100, "leverage": 500, "notionalUsd": 50000,
  "entryPrice": 82800.3, "entrySource": "live mark",
  "bustPrice": 82674, "distanceToBustPct": 0.1525,
  "openValidation": { "accepted": true, "problem": null },
  "scenarios": [{
    "exitPrice": 82883.1, "priceMovePct": 0.1,
    "rawPnlUsd": 50, "adjustedPnlUsd": 36.99, "winFeeUsd": 0.74, "netPnlUsd": 36.25,
    "netReturnOnMarginPct": 36.2, "keptFractionOfRawGain": 0.7249, "liquidated": false
  }]
}

The raw $50 gain keeps about 72% after the deadband, impact haircut and 2% fee. That gap is why quoting before trading matters.

Tools#

papertrade_markets#

Live Papertrade perpetual markets (BTC, ETH): current mark price, max leverage, open interest and caps in USD for each side, status, and the protocol minimums. Read-only.

papertrade_estimate_position#

Quote a Papertrade position without opening it. Returns the exact bust (liquidation) price, whether the open would be accepted, and what a close would pay at a given exit: raw PnL, deadband and impact haircut, the 2% win fee, net PnL and PAPER mint basis. Entry defaults to the live mark. Give exitPrice or priceMovePct for one scenario, or neither for a ladder of scenarios. Uses the SDK math verified against mainnet settlements. Quote only: nothing is opened or signed.

papertrade_prepare_open#

Validate a position open against live market limits (pause state, leverage, minimum margin and notional, size and open-interest caps) and, if accepted, return the UNSIGNED OpenPosition EIP-712 payload plus a plain-language summary to show the user.

Limits#

Each client IP may make 60 tool calls per minute (best effort, per edge isolate). Requests are capped at 64 KB and batches at 20 messages. Wallet snapshots time out after 9 seconds. Upstream calls retry once.

Building typed data safely#

papertrade_prepare_open and papertrade_build_typed_data return a typedData object and an eth_signTypedData_v4 request. The flow for an agent is: call the tool, show the user the summary and bust price, get an explicit yes, then let the user's own wallet or session key sign, and submit with PapertradeClient.submitIntent. The server never holds keys and cannot submit for you.
