  2. 02Backtesting and performance analysis
  3. 03Strategy parameter optimization
  4. 04TradingView integration
  5. 05Web interface and desktop app entry points

Use cases

  1. 01Assisting PineScript strategy development in Claude Desktop
  2. 02Backtesting and tuning trading parameters
  3. 03Generating TradingView-compatible code

MCP support

This project is an MCP server that connects to Claude Desktop through npx or claude mcp add, providing PineScript development capabilities.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
"mcpServers": {
"pinescript": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"pinescript-mcp-server"
]
}
}
}
Run commandnpx -y pinescript-mcp-server

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

Quick Start

  1. Install dependencies:

    npm install
    
  2. Start the UI (choose one method):

    # Standard Next.js development server
    npm run ui
    
    # Clean start with port cleanup
    npm run ui:clean
    
    # Alternative Express server (if Next.js has issues)
    npm run ui:express
    
    # Desktop app (no web server required)
    npm run ui:electron
    
  3. Access the web interface at:

    http://localhost:3001
    

    (Not required for the desktop app option)

UI Options

The project includes multiple ways to access the UI:

1. Next.js Development Server
# Standard Next.js dev server
npm run ui

# Clean start (kills any existing processes using the ports)
npm run ui:clean

# Start with administrator privileges (for stubborn processes)
npm run ui:admin
2. Alternative Server Options
# Simple Express server (more stable alternative)
npm run ui:express

# Basic HTML test page server
npm run ui:test
3. Desktop Application

For environments where web servers have connectivity issues:

# Electron desktop application (no web server required)
npm run ui:electron
Troubleshooting UI Server

If you experience connection issues with the UI server:

  1. Check your firewall settings
  2. Run the firewall exception script: npm run firewall:allow
  3. See the scripts/docs/ui-connect-guide.md for detailed connection troubleshooting
  4. Try the desktop app option: npm run ui:electron

Utility Scripts

The repository includes several utility scripts to help with development and troubleshooting:

Essential Server Scripts (in scripts/server/)
  • run-ui-clean.bat - Main script to start the UI server (cleans up existing processes)
  • run-ui-admin.bat - Starts the UI server with administrator privileges
  • serve-test-page.bat - Serves a simple HTML test page on port 8000 to test connectivity
  • run-express-server.bat - Starts an Express server as an alternative to Next.js
  • run-electron-app.bat - Starts the Electron desktop application (no web server required)
Network Troubleshooting (in scripts/network/)
  • check-connectivity.bat - Comprehensive network connectivity diagnostics
  • check-windows-firewall.bat - Check firewall status and rules

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.
