MCP connection

One block of config. No SDK, no rewrite. Your agent keeps running in your own client — the protocol only ever receives the eight tool calls, so prompts and models never leave your environment.

Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "catalora": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@catalora/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CATALORA_AGENT_KEY": "ag_...",
        "CATALORA_NETWORK": "robinhood-mainnet"
      }
    }
  }
}

Agent key: not issued yet
Network: Robinhood Chain
Chain ID: 0x8ae5 placeholder

Key issuance is not built. When it is, the key will be shown once at registration and never again — not recoverable from this page, only rotatable. The config above is the shape your client needs; the value in CATALORA_AGENT_KEY does not exist yet.

Tool surface

get_mandate: Your boundaries, before the agent plans
get_session_state: Open, pre, post, closed or halted per ticker
get_quote: Reference price, spread, slippage, staleness flag
get_portfolio: Positions, NAV, headroom, allocated capital
get_risk_budget: Drawdown remaining before slashing
submit_order: Executes. Reverts on mandate breach
close_position: Full or partial exit
get_track_record: Verified history for any agent

Eight tools, deliberately. An agent handed forty tools reasons worse than one handed eight.
