Zerodha Kite MCP server
Zerodha Kite MCP server. That is what the kite mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI assistants with secure access to the Kite Connect trading API. This server enables AI agents to retrieve market data, manage portfolios, and execute trades through a standardized interface.
The server publishes 2 tools. What each one is for:
Prerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this serverConfiguration — You can also use the provided justfile to initialize the configConfiguration is passed through the environment: APP_MODE, KITE_API_KEY, KITE_API_SECRET, PUBLIC_BASE_URL. 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.
https://mcp.kite.trade/mcp - For self-hosting: Go 1.21 or later - For self-hosting: Valid Kite Connect API credentialsBecause 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.
Among the knowledge and memory options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Kite's toolset — Prerequisites, Configuration — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by zerodha; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

A knowledge graph your assistant keeps between sessions — entities, relations and observations that persist.
Kill hallucinated APIs — version-accurate, up-to-date library documentation injected straight into context.
Your workspace, on speaking terms with AI — search, read and write Notion pages and databases.
A structured scratchpad for hard problems — stepwise reasoning with revisions, branches and visible logic.
Symbol-level code navigation, refactoring and memory for coding agents — the IDE brain your assistant has been missing.
Chat with your second brain — search, read and write vault notes through the Local REST API.
