MCP Tools

What this site exposes over MCP

Model Context Protocol is the standard for letting an LLM client (Claude, Cursor, agents, anything that speaks the spec) discover and call tools from external services. This site runs its own MCP server at /api/mcp, and the assistant on this site also discovers tools from any external MCP servers configured via the MCP_SERVERS_JSON env var.

MCP server endpoint

`/api/mcp`

JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP, protocol version 2025-06-18. Implements initialize, tools/list, tools/call and ping.

  "mcpServers": {
    "portfolio": {

}

Quick smoke testNo client required — POST a JSON-RPC tools/list and inspect the response.
