MCP Server

Connect Your AI Platform

Step-by-step guides for connecting Laevitas derivatives data to your favorite AI platform. Requires an Enterprise API key from your Laevitas dashboard.

Claude.ai Connectors

OAuth 2.1

Connect directly from Claude.ai using the built-in MCP Connectors feature. OAuth handles authentication automatically.

1

Go to Settings → Connectors in Claude.ai
2

Click Add custom connector
3

Fill in the fields:

NameLaevitas

Remote MCP server URLhttps://apiv2.laevitas.ch/api/v1/mcp

OAuth Client IDclient_1782736649991_nu62f5exa

OAuth Client Secretleave empty
4

Click Add — a popup will open asking for your Laevitas API key
5

Enter your API key and click Authorize. The connector is now active.

Paste the OAuth Client ID exactly as shown and leave the Client Secret blank — it's a public client secured by PKCE. A pre-registered Client ID is required because anonymous dynamic client registration is disabled for security. After clicking Add, Claude redirects you to the Laevitas login page to enter your API key.

Claude Desktop

API Key

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

1

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config

Add the following to your config file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "laevitas-derivatives": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://apiv2.laevitas.ch/api/v1/mcp",
        "--header",
        "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY"
      ]
    }
  }
}

3

Restart Claude Desktop. The Laevitas tools will appear in your tool list.

Claude CLI (Claude Code)

API Key

One command to connect:

Run in your terminal:

claude mcp add laevitas-derivatives \
  --transport http \
  https://apiv2.laevitas.ch/api/v1/mcp \
  --header "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY"

Ask naturally:

claude -p "What's the BTC perpetual funding rate?"

Cursor

API Key

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project root (or the global ~/.cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "laevitas": {
      "url": "https://apiv2.laevitas.ch/api/v1/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "apikey": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Open Settings → MCP and confirm the laevitas server shows a green dot, then ask the agent in chat.

VS Code (Copilot)

API Key

Create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace:

{
  "servers": {
    "laevitas": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://apiv2.laevitas.ch/api/v1/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "apikey": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Open the Copilot Chat panel in Agent mode — the Laevitas tools appear in the tools picker. Requires GitHub Copilot with MCP support enabled.

Windsurf

API Key

Add to your mcp_config.json (Cascade → MCP settings → Edit raw config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "laevitas": {
      "serverUrl": "https://apiv2.laevitas.ch/api/v1/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "apikey": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Click Refresh in the MCP panel, then talk to Cascade.

Codex CLI

API Key

One command to register the server:

codex mcp add laevitas \
  --url https://apiv2.laevitas.ch/api/v1/mcp \
  --header "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY"

Then ask Codex directly — e.g. "Get the BTC perpetual funding rate on Binance."

ChatGPT / OpenAI

GPT Actions

Connect as a custom GPT Action using the MCP endpoint.

1

Go to Explore GPTs → Create in ChatGPT
2

Under Configure → Actions → Create new action
3

Set Authentication to API Key, header name apikey
4
Import the OpenAPI schema from:
```
https://apiv2.laevitas.ch/swagger-json
```
5

Save and test. Your GPT can now call Laevitas endpoints directly.

OpenAI GPT Actions use the REST API directly (not MCP protocol). All futures and options endpoints are available via the Swagger schema.

n8n

n8n Automation

MCP Client Node

Use the n8n MCP Client node to connect to Laevitas.

1

Add an MCP Client node to your workflow
2

Set Transport to Streamable HTTP
3
Enter the server URL:
```
https://apiv2.laevitas.ch/api/v1/mcp
```
4

Add a custom header: apikey: YOUR_API_KEY
5

Connect to an AI Agent node. The agent can now call all Laevitas tools.

Troubleshooting

Common issues when connecting an MCP client. Restart your client after changing any configuration.

`406 Not Acceptable`

Your client (or curl) didn't send Accept: application/json, text/event-stream. Both content types are required on every request.

`401 Unauthorized`

Missing or invalid credentials. Check the apikey header. The MCP handshake (initialize / tools/list) returns 401 with a WWW-Authenticate header when no credentials are sent — that's the cue for OAuth clients to log in. For Claude.ai, set the pre-registered OAuth Client ID (see the Claude.ai guide above); the connector then redirects you to the Laevitas login page.

`429 Too Many Requests`

You hit the per-minute tool-call limit. Back off using the X-RateLimit-Reset response header (seconds until reset). Batched JSON-RPC calls count one slot per tools/call frame.

`402 Payment Required`

A tools/call was sent without an API key or OAuth token, so x402 pay-per-call kicked in. Either authenticate, or let a wallet-enabled agent settle the payment. See the x402 guide.

Duplicate tools / won't connect

Configure the Laevitas server once per client. If you added it more than once (e.g. an API-key entry and an OAuth entry), remove the duplicate, then restart.

`npx` not found

Clients that bridge via mcp-remote need Node.js. Run npx --version to confirm it's installed, and make sure your network allows outbound HTTPS to apiv2.laevitas.ch.

Still stuck? Debug interactively with the MCP Inspector (npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector) or email [email protected].

Header (preferred)	`apikey: your-key-here`
Header (alternative)	`x-api-key: your-key-here`
Query parameter	`?apiKey=your-key-here`

PKCE	`S256` (required)
Grant type	`authorization_code`
Token lifetime	`1 hour` (auto-refreshes)
