Perpwatch

perpwatch

A forwarding client for the MarketTrace perpetual-futures microstructure feed. perpwatch exposes the feed's eleven read-only tools as a stdio MCP server (and a small CLI): it validates each call locally — including the nine-symbol universe (BTC, ETH, SOL, BNB, XRP, DOGE, HYPE, ZEC, ENA, case-insensitive with an optional USDT suffix) — and proxies the call to the hosted endpoint, which aggregates Binance, Bybit, OKX and Hyperliquid.

Tools, by the question they answer:

• Market context — get_market_state (one normalized snapshot: funding + percentile, OI, volume, CVD, book imbalance, liquidation pressure, basis), get_funding_percentile
• History and base rates — get_conditional_outcomes (measured forward returns after a stated condition; history_silent when the evidence is too thin), get_state_history (15-minute state archive series), get_ohlcv (consolidated candles)
• Flow and footprint — get_liquidations_recent, get_volume_profile (POC / value area / naked POCs), get_big_trades, get_footprint_events (absorbed / pulled book walls), get_stacked_imbalances
• help — the tool guide, served locally with no credentials: tools grouped by question, example calls, scales, and limits.

Auth

The hosted endpoint uses OAuth sign-in (browser → email magic link). Complete that sign-in and export the resulting bearer:

export MARKETTRACE_BEARER="<bearer from the hosted sign-in>"

Without it, data calls fail with an error naming MARKETTRACE_BEARER and the sign-in — no data is fabricated. The endpoint defaults to https://api.markettrace.ai/mcp; override it with MARKETTRACE_MCP_URL. Market data is informational only, not financial advice.

CLI

npx @reneturcios/perpwatch toolsnpx @reneturcios/perpwatch helpnpx @reneturcios/perpwatch call get_market_state '{"symbol":"BTC"}'npx @reneturcios/perpwatch --version

Exit codes: 0 success, 1 runtime error (including a missing bearer or an upstream error), 2 usage error.

MCP server

npx -y @reneturcios/perpwatch mcp

MCP client config:

{  "mcpServers": {    "perpwatch": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@reneturcios/perpwatch", "mcp"],      "env": { "MARKETTRACE_BEARER": "<bearer from the hosted sign-in>" }    }  }}

Docker

docker run -i -e MARKETTRACE_BEARER="<bearer>" ghcr.io/cloudcorprecords/perpwatch
