Hummingbot MCP Server¶
The Hummingbot MCP Server is an interface to Hummingbot API that enables AI assistants like Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT to control your trading infrastructure using natural language.
GitHub Repository: github.com/hummingbot/mcp
What is MCP?¶
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open-source standard for connecting AI applications to external systems. Using MCP, AI applications like Claude or ChatGPT can connect to data sources, tools, and workflows—enabling them to access key information and perform tasks.
The Hummingbot MCP Server implements this protocol to give AI assistants access to:
- Data sources: Portfolio balances, order history, market prices, funding rates
- Tools: Place orders, manage positions, execute swaps, deploy bots
- Workflows: Multi-step trading operations, strategy deployment, liquidity management
Example Conversations¶
Once configured, you can interact naturally with your AI assistant:
You: Show me my portfolio balances across all exchanges
AI: I'll check your portfolio balances using the Hummingbot MCP server...
