MCP support
Exposes Angel One SmartAPI authentication, portfolio, order, market, GTT, and calculation tools to MCP clients over stdio. Trade-changing operations have configurable soft and hard limits.

Details
From the project READMEAngel One MCP Server
TypeScript Model Context Protocol server for Angel One SmartAPI.
Use it from Claude, Cursor, Copilot, or any MCP client to:
- place and manage orders
- read holdings, positions, and funds
- fetch market data, candles, OI, Greeks, and movers
- manage GTT rules
- estimate charges and margin
Highlights
- Direct
fetch()integration. No Angel One SDK dependency. - Auto TOTP generation from your base32 secret.
- Lazy login with token refresh in API layer.
- Safety guard for trading mutations with soft and hard limits.
- stdio MCP server. Works well with
npx.
Discoverability
- npm package:
angel-one-mcp - Official MCP Registry:
io.github.ameernoufil/angel-one - GitHub repo:
ameernoufil/angel-one-mcp
If your client supports registry-based discovery, search for io.github.ameernoufil/angel-one.
If your client prefers package installs, use angel-one-mcp from npm.
Quick Start
Option A: Use with npx (recommended)
Add this to your MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"angel-one": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "angel-one-mcp"],
"env": {
"ANGEL_API_KEY": "your_smartapi_key",
"ANGEL_CLIENT_ID": "your_client_id",
"ANGEL_PASSWORD": "your_mpin",
"ANGEL_TOTP_SECRET": "your_base32_totp_secret"
}
}
}
}
Option B: Run from source
git clone https://github.com/ameernoufil/angel-one-mcp.git
cd angel-one-mcp
npm install
cp .env.example .env
npm run build
npm start
If running from source, point your MCP client to build/index.js.
Environment Variables
Required:
ANGEL_API_KEYANGEL_CLIENT_IDANGEL_PASSWORDANGEL_TOTP_SECRET
Optional safety limits:
SOFT_MAX_ORDER_QTYdefault25HARD_MAX_ORDER_QTYdefault100SOFT_MAX_ORDER_VALUEdefault10000HARD_MAX_ORDER_VALUEdefault100000
Example .env:
ANGEL_API_KEY=your_smartapi_key
ANGEL_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id
ANGEL_PASSWORD=your_mpin
ANGEL_TOTP_SECRET=your_base32_totp_secret
Safety Model
Trading mutations are guarded.
Soft limits block by default and can be overridden with force: true.
Hard limits cannot be bypassed without changing env vars and restarting the server.
Guarded operations include:
place_ordermodify_ordercreate_gtt_rulemodify_gtt_ruleconvert_position
For MARKET orders, the server attempts LTP-based value checks before allowing the request.
Tool Coverage
- Auth: login and logout
- Portfolio: holdings, positions, funds, conversion
- Orders: place, modify, cancel, book lookup, trade lookup
- Market: search, LTP, quotes, candles, OI, Greeks, movers, PCR
- GTT: create, modify, cancel, list, inspect
- Calculator: margin and brokerage estimates
- User: profile

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.
