What is the Qgold MCP server?

QGold is an MCP Server facilitating natural language processing and understanding of certain asset prices, namely Gold, Silver, Palladium, Copper, Bitcoin and Ethereum. For kicks, it also. The qgold mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 6 defined tools rather than through you.

Its toolset

Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:

  • Configuration — You can modify the following parameters: - ApiEndpointBase: The base URL of the API to fetch data from (https://api.gold-api.com/price) - TableName
  • Customization — The DynamoDB indexes are setup such that the data is updated daily (as opposed to taking into account time as well)
  • Cleanup — The Cleanup tool exposed by this server
  • Setup — The Setup tool exposed by this server
  • get_asset_prices — Retrieves currency price information using specified date ranges
  • model_financial_projections — This MCP tool was just scratching an itch. It helps to provide some idea of annual growth of a principal amount over a 30 year period, as well as

Adding it to your client

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.

When to reach for it

Among the developer tooling 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. Qgold's toolset — Configuration, Customization, Cleanup and 3 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by jcaple; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Qgold's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

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.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the qgold mcp server does with a few real requests.

It connects Qgold to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 6 tools (Configuration, Customization, Cleanup, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Qgold directly.
