What is the Cryptoscholar MCP Server?

Ask Claude "Is SOL set up for a swing trade?" and it fetches live data from Binance, runs a full indicator suite, scores it, and delivers a grounded bull/bear

Configuration

You will need one environment variable: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

When to reach for it

Plenty of developer tooling 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. Cryptoscholar's toolset — watchlist_add, watchlist_remove, watchlist_show and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by cryptographer11; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

Caveats

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.

Recorded tools

  • watchlist_add — Add symbols to a named list (creates the list if needed)
  • watchlist_remove — Remove symbols; also clears their alerts
  • watchlist_show — Show all symbols + configured alerts for a list
  • watchlist_lists — List all named watchlists with symbol counts
  • watchlist_scan — Run a full TSS analysis on every coin in the list — parallel digest view
  • alert_set — Set a tss_above, tss_below, or regime_change alert on any symbol
  • alert_check — Fetch live TA for all alerted symbols, report which alerts fired, update baseline
  • analyze_coin — Full technical analysis snapshot for any coin. Fetches 300 days of real OHLCV candles from Binance (with CoinGecko fallback) and computes:
  • rank_coins — Pass a list of symbols and get them back ranked by TSS. Runs in parallel (up to 8 workers) for fast results on large lists. Each result includes TSS, regime, EMA alignment, 4H MTF alignment, RSI divergence, OBV trend, fu
  • top_coins — No symbol list needed. Fetches the top 50 coins by market cap from CoinGecko and returns them ranked by TSS. Smart filtering automatically removes: - Stablecoins (USDT, USDC, DAI, etc.) - Wrapped / synthetic tokens (WBTC
  • correlate_coins — Compute pairwise Pearson correlation of 30-day daily returns across 2–20 coins. Returns the full correlation matrix, high-correlation clusters (>0.85), and uncorrelated pairs (<0.30) — useful for portfolio diversificatio
  • market_context — Macro market signals to frame individual coin analysis. Uses CoinGecko global data, DefiLlama stablecoin supply, and Alternative.me Fear & Greed Index. Returns:
  • debate — Claude reads the live TA data and generates a structured bull/bear debate grounded in actual indicator values — not hallucinated opinion. Returns: - Bull case — what the technicals say in favour - Bear case — wha
  • train_regime_model — Manually trigger a retrain of the HMM volatility regime model on fresh BTC price history. The model auto-retrains every 7 days automatically — use this after a major market structure shift to force an immediate update. A

Setup and compatibility

This listing has no verified copy-paste launch configuration. Use the project documentation to confirm the entry point, runtime and authentication before registering it in your MCP client. A package name or repository alone is not a runnable configuration.

Recorded tools

Check the linked publisher documentation and your connected client's tool list. Names and availability can vary with the server version and account permissions.
