Aevo MCP

Authentication

The AEVO MCP server uses session-based authentication. Each MCP client session stores its own AEVO credentials in server memory via the aevo_authenticate tool.

Credentials

All credentials are available at app.aevo.xyz/settings.

To read account data (balances, positions, history):

api_key + api_secret

To trade (create/cancel orders):

api_key + api_secret + wallet_address + signing_key_private_key

Session Flow

1. Connect to the MCP server
2. Call aevo_onboard() — checks if credentials exist
3. Call aevo_authenticate(api_key, api_secret, wallet_address, signing_key_private_key)
4. Use tools normally
5. Session expires automatically after 12 hours

Credentials are stored in memory only — never written to disk or logs. Each session is isolated; credentials from one session are never visible to another.

Endpoints

Environment	MCP Endpoint
Mainnet	`https://mcp.aevo.xyz/mcp`
Testnet	`https://mcp-testnet.aevo.xyz/mcp`

Connecting

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http aevo-trading https://mcp.aevo.xyz/mcp

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aevo-trading": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.aevo.xyz/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Self-Hosting

git clone https://github.com/ribbon-finance/aevo-mcp.git
cd aevo-mcp
docker compose up --build -d

Then connect to http://localhost:8080/mcp.

For multi-user hosting, do not set AEVO_API_KEY/AEVO_API_SECRET in the server environment — let each session authenticate independently.
