MCP server for PreReason - the Context API for financial agents.

Give your agent market context, not raw price feeds. 17 briefings covering BTC, macro,
cross-asset regimes, and liquidity - each with trend signals, confidence scores, and causal narratives.

Quick Start

Option 1: One-Click Connect (Claude.ai, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, VS Code Copilot)

Clients that support MCP OAuth can connect with no API key setup required. Add the server URL and the client handles the rest - you'll be prompted to sign in or create a free account, and your API key is provisioned automatically.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prereason": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.prereason.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

No Authorization header needed - OAuth handles it.

Option 2: Direct HTTP with API Key (Claude Code, scripts, cron jobs)

For CLI tools or when you want to use an existing API key:

# Claude Code (CLI one-liner)
claude mcp add prereason --transport http https://api.prereason.com/api/mcp

Or with an explicit key in your MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prereason": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.prereason.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Option 3: stdio bridge (Claude Desktop and other stdio-only clients)

Requires Node.js 18+

Add to your MCP client config (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prereason": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@prereason/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "PREREASON_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop config file location:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Restart your MCP client after editing the config. PreReason should appear with 5 tools.

Get an API Key

  1. Sign up at prereason.com/signup
  2. Go to Dashboard > Settings > API Keys
  3. Copy your key (starts with pr_live_)

PreReason MCP server — FAQ

Common questions about connecting and running PreReason.

  • What data does PreReason provide?

    17 pre-reasoned market briefings covering Bitcoin, macro indicators, cross-asset regimes, and liquidity. Each briefing includes trend signals, confidence scores, and causal narratives. Free tier includes 6 briefings; Basic ($19.99/mo) and Pro ($49.99/mo) unlock additional analysis like on-chain metrics, regime classification, and treasury intelligence.

  • How do I authenticate with the MCP server?

    Get a free API key at prereason.com/signup, then add it to your MCP config as `PREREASON_API_KEY` (stdio) or in the Authorization header (HTTP). OAuth-enabled clients like Claude.ai can connect without manual key setup. The `list_briefings`, `list_metrics`, and `get_health` tools work without authentication.

  • Which MCP clients does this server support?

    Supports HTTP transport for Claude.ai, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code Copilot via OAuth or API key headers. For stdio-only clients like Claude Desktop, use the npm package (`npx @prereason/mcp@0.1.13`) with Node.js 18+. See the README for client-specific setup.

  • What's the difference between the free, Basic, and Pro tiers?

    Free includes 6 briefings (BTC quick-check, macro snapshot, correlations, pulse, grid-stress, on-chain basics). Basic ($19.99/mo) adds momentum, liquidity, miner-survival, and breadth analysis. Pro ($49.99/mo) includes full BTC intelligence, regime classification, FX liquidity, energy models, and treasury data.

  • Can I use this in a script or cron job?

    Yes. Use the HTTP endpoint (https://api.prereason.com/api/mcp) with your API key in the Authorization header, or run the CLI with `PREREASON_API_KEY=pr_live_... npx @prereason/mcp`. The server exposes 5 tools: `list_briefings`, `list_metrics`, `get_health`, `get_context`, and `get_metric`.
