MCP Tools
The CrowdTime MCP server augments your LLM client with a variety of Web3 tools. Some of these tools require bespoke provider credentials to be configured.

Conventions
Read vs. write
Research tools run as soon as the LLM calls them. Live trading tools (everything that starts with place_ or cancel_) require confirm: true.
Symbols
Every tool that takes a symbol argument expects the internal symbol — BTC-PERP, ADA-PERP, SOL-PERP, ZEC-PERP, ETH-PERP.
Minimum notional
Opening orders must be at least $10 USD notional (configurable on the server via MCP_MIN_NOTIONAL_USD). Reduce-only orders are exempt — closing dust is always allowed.
Mark price vs. close
Snapshots return both price (last candle close) and mark_price (the provider's live mark, used for liquidation and PnL settlement). For reasoning about entries and exits, use mark_price — that's what your account is actually marked against.
Stale data refusal
strike_get_market_snapshot will return isError: true if the provider's klines feed is detected as stale (forward-filled or lagging > 2× the interval). Indicators on stale data are misleading, so the MCP refuses to compute them rather than emit a confidently wrong answer.
