About pairsync
PairSync is a read-only MCP server for AI clients to explore nightly cointegration statistics across six markets. It also provides methodology, chart and code templates, and scaffolds for strategy building without handling trades or money.
Key features
- 01Nightly ranked pair statistics
- 02Locked parameters and calibration records
- 03Backtest-tracked spread states
- 04Methodology and strategy scaffolds
- 05Chart and code templates
Use cases
- 01Screen pairs across supported markets
- 02Review a pair’s parameters and spread state
- 03Check frozen recipes against new refits
- 04Create chart or connector templates
MCP support
Exposes 18 read-only tools over Streamable HTTP, including statistics, templates, methodology, strategy scaffolds, and charts. MCP clients connect to the hosted server using OAuth or an API-key header.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Pairs trading statistics
What it does
PairSync refits cointegration statistics every night across six markets (US equities, US ETFs, EU, India, Australia, crypto) and serves the output as ranked pair statistics: spread z-scores, locked parameters, calibration records, and backtest-tracked spread states. Your AI can screen pairs, read a pair's locked parameters, freeze a parameter recipe, generate ready-to-paste chart and code templates, check a frozen list against the latest refit output, read the plain-English methodology library, and fetch a strategy-builder scaffold whose every decision is an owner-decision slot your AI fills by asking you.
- Server:
https://mcp.pair-sync.com/mcp(remote MCP, Streamable HTTP) - Tools: 18, all read-only (statistics, templates, methodology library, strategy-builder scaffold, charts)
- Markets / cadence: US, US ETFs, EU, IN, AU, crypto — one refit per market per night
- Rate limit: 300 tool calls/hour per key
- Documentation: https://terminal.pair-sync.com/api
Read-only by design
Every tool is read-only statistics and templates. PairSync has no order path, no custody, no execution, and never manages money — prices, decisions, and execution stay entirely on your side. Anything you choose to freeze or persist is stored on your side; the server keeps nothing.
Get an API key
- Sign in (or sign up) at https://terminal.pair-sync.com
- Open Settings → API Access
- Mint an API key and copy it — you'll paste it into Cursor below
Your credentials stay private: you authenticate with a single PairSync API key minted on your own account page. OAuth tokens are sealed, short-lived envelopes of that key — the server stores no tokens, no sessions, and no personal data.
Connect from Cursor
One-click install (OAuth)
Click the Install in Cursor badge above. Cursor walks you through PairSync's OAuth sign-in — you paste the API key you minted once during authorization, and you're connected.
PairSync's OAuth is standard OAuth 2.1 (RFC 9728 discovery, dynamic client registration, PKCE), so the same zero-config entry works in any OAuth-capable MCP client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pairsync": {
"url": "https://mcp.pair-sync.com/mcp"
}
}
}
Manual mcp.json (API-key header)
Prefer a header instead of OAuth? Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or your
project's .cursor/mcp.json) and set the PAIRSYNC_API_KEY environment
variable to your key:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pairsync": {
"url": "https://mcp.pair-sync.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"X-Api-Key": "${env:PAIRSYNC_API_KEY}"
}
}
}
}
Example prompts

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.
