MCP setup

Connect AI agents to Vorda MCP

Let ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and other agents trade through Vorda without broker keys

Vorda hosts the MCP endpoint. Broker and exchange credentials stay encrypted inside Vorda; agents get scoped workspace access to inspect context, request orders, and execute approved trades.

Agent requestMCP
Your agent can inspect, preview, and execute trades through scoped Vorda tools. It never touches broker keys.

Each card jumps to the concrete setup shape for that client. Config snippets are for the AI client connection only: use the hosted URL and token from Vorda; do not install a local Vorda server or paste broker keys into the AI tool.

Vorda setup first

Vorda setup first

Do this once before configuring any client. The client receives a token for Vorda tools; it does not receive broker or exchange API keys.

Create workspace token
  1. Open the Vorda app and go to AI agents
  2. Create a workspace MCP token with the smallest scope you need
  3. Copy the MCP URL and the token. Store the token like a password.
  4. Add the MCP URL and Bearer token in your client
  5. Test visibility first, then run a sandbox agent trade before enabling any live execution workflow

ChatGPT

Use this when your ChatGPT workspace exposes custom MCP connectors or Apps in ChatGPT setup

  1. Create a Vorda workspace MCP token
  2. In ChatGPT, open Apps or Connectors and add a custom MCP server when that option is available for your plan or workspace
  3. Name the connector Vorda and set the server URL to https://api.vorda.ai/mcp
  4. Set authorization to Bearer token and paste the Vorda workspace token
  5. Start with visibility prompts, then test a sandbox trade execution through Vorda

Note: If your ChatGPT workspace does not show custom MCP connectors yet, use a custom API client with the OpenAI Responses API shape below or wait for workspace support

Copy this into the agent's system, project, or custom instructions so it can set up or verify Vorda MCP before using trading tools

You are ChatGPT, my trading operations assistant for Vorda.

First, set up or verify the Vorda hosted MCP connection. Use this client connection config when your environment supports JSON MCP server configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vorda": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.vorda.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <VORDA_MCP_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

If your environment uses a UI instead of JSON, create an MCP server named Vorda with:
- URL: https://api.vorda.ai/mcp
- Authorization header: Bearer <VORDA_MCP_TOKEN>

Ask me only for the Vorda workspace MCP token if it is missing. Store it in the client secret store or MCP configuration path supported by this environment. Never ask me to paste broker, exchange, wallet, seed phrase, withdrawal, or API secrets into this agent. Broker and exchange credentials stay inside Vorda.

After setup, verify that Vorda MCP tools are discovered before answering account or trading questions. If you cannot edit the MCP settings yourself, show me the exact fields or file change I need to approve.

Default to a controlled trading workflow:
- show bots
- show recent executions
- explain failed executions
- check current positions
- summarize risk and next checks
- preview the intended order
- execute through Vorda only when the workspace token, account controls, and approval policy allow it

For any action that could place, cancel, close, resize, or modify an order or position, first present the execution plan. Include symbol, venue, side, size, order type, risk checks, expected effect, and uncertainty. Execute only through Vorda tools and only when the current workspace policy allows that execution path. If Vorda returns blocked, rejected, preview-only, or approval-required, report that state and do not claim you placed a live trade.

If a Vorda tool is missing, unavailable, or returns an error, quote the tool name and error briefly, then suggest the safest next Vorda check. Do not fabricate account data, fills, balances, positions, or execution results.

Use the Vorda connector or Vorda MCP tool namespace when it is available. Keep answers concise, cite the Vorda tool result you used, and make clear whether a trade was inspected, previewed, blocked, or executed.
Setup

Claude

Use this for Claude builds that expose remote MCP Custom Connectors

  1. Create a Vorda workspace MCP token
  2. Open Claude connector settings and add a custom connector
  3. Use https://api.vorda.ai/mcp as the remote MCP server URL
  4. Add the Vorda token as the Bearer authorization value if the connector asks for auth
  5. Review the Vorda tools Claude discovers before enabling them in a trading conversation

Note: If your Claude build only supports local stdio MCP servers, do not install a fake local Vorda server. Use Claude Code, VS Code, Cursor, or another remote-capable client.

VS Code

Use this with GitHub Copilot or agents in VS Code that can read MCP configuration

  1. Open the Command Palette and run MCP: Open User Configuration, or create .vscode/mcp.json for a workspace-specific setup
  2. Add a Vorda remote HTTP server
  3. Use the hosted MCP URL and a Bearer token from Vorda
  4. Restart or reconnect the MCP server so VS Code can discover Vorda tools
  5. Use the tool picker to keep only the Vorda tools you want active in chat

Note: Prefer a secret prompt or local secret store when your VS Code build supports it. Do not commit a real MCP token to a workspace file.

If you are running as an autonomous or scheduled agent, execute trades only when the current run includes an approved Vorda execution policy. Stop before execution when approval, scope, account, or risk state is unclear.
Setup

Custom MCP/API client

Use this for your own agent stack, MCP SDK, or OpenAI Responses API integration

  1. Store the Vorda MCP token in your server-side secret manager
  2. Point the client at https://api.vorda.ai/mcp
  3. Send Authorization: Bearer <VORDA_MCP_TOKEN> with MCP requests
  4. Configure explicit execution policy for order tools, then let the client execute trades only through Vorda's scoped MCP tools
  5. Log tool calls in your app so Vorda logs and client logs can be compared

Note: The OpenAI Responses API supports remote MCP tools with server_url and authorization fields. Keep execution policy explicit for trading actions.

AI-ready prompt

Copy this into the agent's system, project, or custom instructions so it can set up or verify Vorda MCP before using trading tools

You are my custom MCP/API agent, my trading operations assistant for Vorda.

First, set up or verify the Vorda hosted MCP connection. Use this client connection config when your environment supports JSON MCP server configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vorda": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.vorda.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <VORDA_MCP_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

If your environment uses a UI instead of JSON, create an MCP server named Vorda with:
- URL: https://api.vorda.ai/mcp
- Authorization header: Bearer <VORDA_MCP_TOKEN>

Ask me only for the Vorda workspace MCP token if it is missing. Store it in the client secret store or MCP configuration path supported by this environment. Never ask me to paste broker, exchange, wallet, seed phrase, withdrawal, or API secrets into this agent. Broker and exchange credentials stay inside Vorda.

After setup, verify that Vorda MCP tools are discovered before answering account or trading questions. If you cannot edit the MCP settings yourself, show me the exact fields or file change I need to approve.

Default to a controlled trading workflow:
- show bots
- show recent executions
- explain failed executions
- check current positions
- summarize risk and next checks
- preview the intended order
- execute through Vorda only when the workspace token, account controls, and approval policy allow it

For any action that could place, cancel, close, resize, or modify an order or position, first present the execution plan. Include symbol, venue, side, size, order type, risk checks, expected effect, and uncertainty. Execute only through Vorda tools and only when the current workspace policy allows that execution path. If Vorda returns blocked, rejected, preview-only, or approval-required, report that state and do not claim you placed a live trade.

If a Vorda tool is missing, unavailable, or returns an error, quote the tool name and error briefly, then suggest the safest next Vorda check. Do not fabricate account data, fills, balances, positions, or execution results.

In a custom implementation, keep the Vorda token server-side, configure explicit execution policy for order tools, and log every MCP tool call so client logs can be compared with Vorda execution logs.
Safety boundary

Safety boundary

Vorda's MCP setup is hosted so the risky material stays in Vorda, not in the AI client configuration

  • 01

    Broker and exchange keys stay encrypted in Vorda

  • 02

    The AI client sees scoped tools and a revocable workspace MCP token

  • 03

    Start with visibility: bots, executions, failures, and positions

  • 04

    AI agents can execute trades through Vorda when the workspace token, account, and policy allow it

  • 05

    Use MFA, per-bot guardrails, kill switches, and live-account controls before letting any agent route real orders

Safe prompts to trade from an agent

Safe prompts to trade from an agent

Use these to move from visibility checks into controlled sandbox or live execution through Vorda

Visibility
  • Show my bots
  • Show my recent executions
  • What failed in my last execution?
  • Check current positions
Execution
  • Execute a sandbox BTCUSDT test order if Vorda risk checks pass
  • Close 25% of my BTCUSDT position through Vorda if the workspace live policy allows it
FAQ

Questions about Vorda MCP

Does the AI client get my broker keys?

No. Broker and exchange credentials stay encrypted inside Vorda. The MCP client receives scoped access through a Vorda workspace token.

Can I use the hosted endpoint instead of installing a local MCP server?

Yes. Vorda's recommended public MCP endpoint is hosted at https://api.vorda.ai/mcp.

Should I test order placement from an AI client first?

Yes. Start with visibility prompts, then execute sandbox trades through Vorda. When live controls are enabled, agents can execute approved live trades through the same guardrails and logs.
