Indmoney

PyPI PyPI Downloads MCP Badge Glama License: MIT

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives Claude read-only access to your INDmoney portfolio — stocks, mutual funds, US stocks, gold, credit cards, liquid savings, loans, and debt.

Built with Python + Playwright. Uses browser automation for OTP login and network interception to capture live API data. Sessions are encrypted and persist across restarts.

What you can ask Claude

Once connected, you can ask things like:

• "Show me my stock holdings and P&L"
• "How are my mutual funds performing?"
• "What's my US stocks portfolio in INR?"
• "What's my outstanding credit card balance?"
• "Give me a full portfolio summary with asset allocation"
• "How much cash do I have in my savings accounts?"

---

Features

14 MCP tools	Status, connect, disconnect, holdings, MF, US stocks, gold, loans, credit cards, liquid, debt, summary, credit score, discover
Persistent sessions	AES-256-GCM encrypted session survives server restarts (12-hour TTL)
Two-level cache	In-memory (5 min) + disk (60 min) — subsequent queries are instant
Reliable fetching	Direct JWT Bearer calls + page-nav interception fallback
Read-only	No order placement, no fund transfers — portfolio data only
Type-safe	Pydantic models throughout; all responses are structured JSON

---

Requirements

• Python 3.11+
• macOS / Linux / Windows (WSL2)
• Claude Desktop (or any MCP-compatible client)
• An INDmoney account

---

Installation

1. Clone and install

git clone https://github.com/VIckys-AI-Stuffs/indmoney-mcp-python.git
cd indmoney-mcp-python

python3.11 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate        # Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

pip install -e .
python -m playwright install chromium

2. Generate an encryption key

The server encrypts your session on disk with AES-256-GCM. Generate a persistent key once and keep it — losing it means losing your saved session (you'll just need to log in again):

python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_hex(32))"
# example output: a3f1c8e2b4d7...  ← copy this value

3. Configure Claude Desktop

Open your Claude Desktop config file and add the indmoney server block. All configuration is passed directly via the env key — no .env file needed.

Platform	Config file location
macOS	~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Linux	~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows	%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "indmoney": {
      "command": "/absolute/path/to/indmoney-mcp-python/venv/bin/python",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/indmoney-mcp-python/main.py"],
      "env": {
        "PYTHONUNBUFFERED": "1",
        "SESSION_ENCRYPTION_KEY": "paste-your-32-byte-hex-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Important: Use the full absolute path to venv/bin/python, not just python.

All supported env variables

Variable	Required	Default	Description
SESSION_ENCRYPTION_KEY	Recommended	(auto-generated)	32-byte hex key for AES-256-GCM session encryption. If omitted, a new key is generated on every restart and your saved session will be lost each time.
SESSION_TTL_HOURS	No	12	How long a logged-in session stays valid before requiring re-login
CACHE_TTL_MINUTES	No	60	Disk cache TTL — how long fetched portfolio data is kept on disk
IN_MEMORY_CACHE_TTL_MINUTES	No	5	In-memory cache TTL — subsequent queries within this window return instantly
API_REQUEST_TIMEOUT	No	10	Per-request timeout in seconds
API_TOTAL_TIMEOUT	No	60	Total timeout for a full data fetch in seconds
LOG_LEVEL	No	INFO	Log verbosity: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR
BROWSER_HEADLESS	No	false	Set true to hide the browser window (not recommended — you need to see it for OTP login)
BROWSER_DATA_DIR	No	./browser-data	Path to store the persistent Playwright browser profile (cookies, localStorage)
SESSIONS_DIR	No	./sessions	Path to store encrypted session + cache files

Advanced: full config example with all options

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "indmoney": {
      "command": "/absolute/path/to/indmoney-mcp-python/venv/bin/python",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/indmoney-mcp-python/main.py"],
      "env": {
        "PYTHONUNBUFFERED": "1",
        "SESSION_ENCRYPTION_KEY": "paste-your-32-byte-hex-key-here",
        "SESSION_TTL_HOURS": "12",
        "CACHE_TTL_MINUTES": "60",
        "IN_MEMORY_CACHE_TTL_MINUTES": "5",
        "LOG_LEVEL": "INFO",
        "BROWSER_HEADLESS": "false"
      }
    }
  }
}

Alternative: Instead of the env block, you can copy .env.example to .env in the project root and set values there. Both approaches work — the Claude config env block takes precedence over .env if the same key appears in both.

3. Restart Claude Desktop

Quit completely and reopen. The indmoney server should appear in Settings → MCP Servers.

---

Connecting for the first time

In Claude, say:

Connect me to INDmoney

Claude will:

1. Open a Chromium browser window
2. Navigate to INDmoney login
3. Wait while you enter your phone number + OTP
4. Detect successful login, save the encrypted session, and close the browser

The OTP login window may timeout after ~30 seconds on Claude's side — that's okay. The browser stays open and the session is saved when you complete the OTP. Call broker_status afterward to confirm.

How it works

              sessions/indmoney/       browser-data/indmoney/
              ├── session.json         (persistent browser profile
              └── cache/               with cookies + localStorage)
                  ├── holdings.json
                  └── ...

Authentication flow:

1. Playwright launches a persistent Chromium context (keeps cookies/localStorage between runs)
2. User completes OTP login manually in the browser window
3. Server extracts the JWT from document.cookie (token cookie on www.indmoney.com)
4. JWT is stored encrypted on disk; browser context preserves cookies for the lifetime of the session

Data fetching:

• Most endpoints: page.evaluate(fetch(url, {Authorization: Bearer <jwt>})) — direct API call from the browser context (avoids CORS)
• Some endpoints (gold, fallbacks): page.expect_response(predicate) while navigating to the relevant SPA page — captures the first matching network response

---

Configuration

Copy .env.example to .env and edit as needed:

cp .env.example .env

Variable	Default	Description
SESSION_ENCRYPTION_KEY	(auto-generated)	32-byte hex key for AES-256-GCM
SESSION_TTL_HOURS	12	How long a session stays valid
CACHE_TTL_MINUTES	60	Disk cache TTL
IN_MEMORY_CACHE_TTL_MINUTES	5	In-memory cache TTL
API_REQUEST_TIMEOUT	10	Per-request timeout (seconds)
LOG_LEVEL	INFO	DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR
BROWSER_HEADLESS	false	Set true to hide the browser window

If SESSION_ENCRYPTION_KEY is empty, one is auto-generated and printed on first run. Copy it to .env to keep sessions valid across restarts.

Security

• Encrypted at rest: Session tokens are encrypted with AES-256-GCM before being written to disk. The key lives only in .env (gitignored).
• OTP stays in your browser: The OTP you type never passes through the MCP server — it goes directly from your keyboard to the INDmoney website.
• Read-only: The server has no tools for placing orders, transferring funds, or modifying your account.
• Local only: All data stays on your machine — nothing is sent to any third-party server.

ToS notice: Browser-based scraping may be against INDmoney's Terms of Service. Use responsibly and at your own risk.

Troubleshooting

See TROUBLESHOOTING.md for detailed solutions to common issues.

Quick fixes:

Symptom	Fix
Server not showing in Claude	Check absolute path in config; restart Claude fully
"not connected" after OTP	Call broker_status — session may have saved after timeout
Tools return stale data	Ask Claude to "clear cache and refresh"
Session deleted unexpectedly	Never run pytest without the test isolation fixture
Gold returns nothing	Your gold holding may already be in get_holdings (e.g., GOLDBEES ETF)
