What the server does

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Capital.com Open API - enabling LLM-driven access to your Capital.com trading account.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • Note — API keys are trading-capable; Capital.com doesn't offer read-only keys
  • Required — The Required tool exposed by this server
  • Optional — The Optional tool exposed by this server

Installation

Because this one is hosted, setup is mostly authentication — you point your client at the endpoint and approve access. Nothing runs on your machine, so there is no runtime to keep patched.

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: CAP_API_KEY, CAP_DEFAULT_ACCOUNT_ID. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Where it fits

Plenty of planning and project tracking servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Capital.Com MCP's toolset — Note, Required, Optional — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by capital-com-sv; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Worth knowing first

  • Your data travels to the provider's service, so the usual questions apply about what you send and what they retain.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
