Use a client that supports Streamable HTTP MCP:

• Server URL: https://api.seiche.info/riptide/mcp
• Authentication: none for the public read-only tools.
• Payment: none for these MCP tools.

For Claude Code project configuration, use .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "riptide": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.seiche.info/riptide/mcp"
    }
  }
}

This repository also includes VS Code configuration and Cursor configuration, following their VS Code and Cursor configuration formats. Merge the Riptide entry into an existing configuration so other connections are preserved. Review the public tools when your client asks to connect.

The machine-readable tool snapshot was observed on 6 September 2026. Discover tools from the live endpoint before depending on a cached schema. server.json matches the active official Registry record for version 1.3.0 observed that day; it is a discovery record, not an independent deployment attestation.

Evidence boundaries

Riptide returns records committed by independent jobs. A public request does not compute a new signal, write a trading ledger, or place an order. Paper performance is not real-money performance or a promise of returns.

Event-market prices are published crowd quotes, not Riptide forecasts or bets. Source rights, jurisdiction and quote freshness can require an intentional quarantine with zero provider events. Preserve unavailable states, source dates, and the service's stated limitations when presenting a result.

The MCP tools provide research, not investment advice or trading authorization. Public access does not grant redistribution rights to underlying provider material; follow the rights information returned with each record.
