Connects your AI client to MetaTrader 5 and 16 crypto venues over a single MCP endpoint. It runs safety rules on the server and starts new keys with a $5,000 paper balance.

## What it does

AlgoVesta hosts a remote Model Context Protocol endpoint communicating over Streamable HTTP. An AI assistant uses this connection to inspect account balances and place trade orders across supported venues. The service exposes 20 tools divided into 13 read operations, 3 state modifications, and 4 destructive actions.

Safety checks happen outside the language model. Risk limits compile into JSON rules that the hosted infrastructure evaluates deterministically before touching any exchange. Every completed execution produces a hash-chained receipt verified with an ed25519 signature.

The backend is hosted and closed-source. Running your own instance locally is not an option. You connect directly via OAuth 2.1 with PKCE or using a secret URL token. Live execution remains locked until you complete two-factor authentication in the control panel.
