## Background: Challenges in Integrating AI Agents with Financial Trading

With the improvement of large language model capabilities, AI agents are gradually entering various professional fields. In the field of financial trading, AI can assist in analyzing market data, identifying trading opportunities, and calculating risk parameters. However, connecting AI to real trading environments involves significant security and compliance risks—an incorrect instruction could lead to actual financial losses.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol proposed by Anthropic, aiming to standardize the interaction between AI models and external tools and data sources. Through MCP, AI agents can safely call external functions without directly handling sensitive credentials or performing high-risk operations.

Trading MCP Server is a dedicated trading tool server built based on the MCP protocol. Its design philosophy is "AI handles reasoning, the server handles execution"—AI agents perform market analysis and decision recommendations, while the server provides standardized tool interfaces and implements strict security controls at the execution layer.

## Core Design Philosophy: Security First

Trading MCP Server has taken security as a non-negotiable core principle from the very beginning of its design. This security concept is reflected in multiple layers:

## Paper Trading Priority

The system works in Paper Trading mode by default. In this mode, all trading operations are executed in a virtual environment and do not affect real account funds. Users can test strategies, verify AI recommendations, and familiarize themselves with tool interfaces in a zero-risk environment.

## Multiple Protections for Live Trading

Even when switching to live trading mode, the system implements multiple security mechanisms:

- **Environment Variable Control**: The live trading permission `ALLOW_LIVE_TRADING` can only be set by manually editing the `.env` file; no tool can remotely enable live trading
- **Dual Mode Confirmation**: Live trading requires setting both `TRADING_MODE=live` and `ALLOW_LIVE_TRADING=true`
- **Manual Approval Process**: Live orders use a token flow of "Preparation → Manual Approval → Execution" to ensure every transaction is confirmed by a human
- **Comprehensive Verification Checklist**: Each order must pass a risk check list, including stop-loss settings, risk-reward ratio, position limits, intraday loss cap, market time check, etc.
- **CNC Sell Block**: The system completely blocks CNC (Cash and Carry) sell orders and only records recommendations to prevent accidental liquidation

## Audit and Traceability

Every decision and operation is appended to the audit log (`storage/trade_logs.jsonl`), forming a complete operation record. This design not only meets compliance requirements but also provides a data basis for post-event analysis and strategy optimization.

## Functional Architecture: Comprehensive Trading Toolset

Trading MCP Server provides a toolset covering the entire trading process, organized by functional categories:
