This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add mcp-server-kalshi -- uvx mcp-server-kalshi

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: KALSHI_ENV (demo (sandbox) or prod (real money)), KALSHI_API_KEY (Kalshi API key ID; required only for portfolio/order tools), KALSHI_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH (Path to your RSA private key .pem; required for authenticated tools), BASE_URL (Optional explicit REST base override (must include /trade-api/v2)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

MCP Server Kalshi — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MCP Server Kalshi?
MCP Server Kalshi runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package mcp-server-kalshi was installed 242 times last week.
How do I connect MCP Server Kalshi?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls mcp-server-kalshi straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use MCP Server Kalshi?
The pypi package mcp-server-kalshi was installed 242 times in the last week. Week over week that is -44%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is MCP Server Kalshi open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 27 stars on GitHub and 2 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
