MCP support
The server exposes Futuur market, account, order, and wager operations as tools for MCP-compatible clients. Authenticated requests use API keys, while public market endpoints need no authentication.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMEFutuur MCP Server
Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the Futuur prediction markets API. Gives Claude (and any MCP-compatible client) the ability to browse markets, simulate and place bets, manage orders, and track wager positions.
Quick start (recommended — Smithery)
# Claude Desktop
npx -y @smithery/cli install @futuur/futuur-mcp --client claude
# Cursor
npx -y @smithery/cli install @futuur/futuur-mcp --client cursor
Smithery will prompt you for your API keys and handle the rest.
Manual setup (npx — no clone needed)
1. Get API keys
Log in to futuur.com → Settings → API → generate a public/private key pair.
2. Configure your MCP client
Claude Desktop — edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):
{
"mcpServers": {
"futuur": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@futuur/futuur-mcp"],
"env": {
"FUTUUR_PUBLIC_KEY": "your_public_key_here",
"FUTUUR_PRIVATE_KEY": "your_private_key_here"
}
}
}
}
Claude Code (CLI) — run once to register the server:
claude mcp add futuur -- npx -y @futuur/futuur-mcp \
-e FUTUUR_PUBLIC_KEY=your_public_key_here \
-e FUTUUR_PRIVATE_KEY=your_private_key_here
Or add to .claude/settings.json under "mcpServers" using the same format as Claude Desktop above.
Cursor — add to .cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"futuur": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@futuur/futuur-mcp"],
"env": {
"FUTUUR_PUBLIC_KEY": "your_public_key_here",
"FUTUUR_PRIVATE_KEY": "your_private_key_here"
}
}
}
}
4. Restart your client
Claude Desktop / Cursor need a full restart after editing config files.

Typical workflow with Claude
1. "Show me the top 10 markets by volume" → get_markets
2. "Give me details on event #1234" → get_market_details
3. "Simulate buying 100 OOM on the Yes outcome" → get_bet_simulation (requires event_id + market_id)
4. "Looks good, place the bet" → place_bet
5. "Show my open positions" → get_user_bets
6. "How much would I get if I sold 50 shares?" → get_partial_sell_amount
7. "Sell them" → sell_bet
Tip: Use
play_moneymode (currency_mode: "play_money") to test without risking real funds. OOM is the play money currency.
Authentication
All authenticated requests use HMAC-SHA512 signatures. The server handles this automatically — just provide your public and private keys via environment variables (FUTUUR_PUBLIC_KEY / FUTUUR_PRIVATE_KEY).
Public endpoints (events listing, event details) do not require authentication.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
