A tool that vanishes takes a piece of your agent with it, and the change arrives silently. Watch this server and every such change lands in your inbox.

Available tools 16

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

score
get_score_for_day
Use for the Score on one day: its value (0–100), its classification (Low, Moderate-low, Neutral, Elevated or High) and whether the day is live or back-calculated (daily since July 18, 2011; live publication since October 6, 2026; earlier days back-calculated with the current method). Choose it for a single day; for today's Score with its historical position and the five market areas use get_score_live, for a run of days get_score_history, for recent change get_score_momentum. Free through the Delayed date (the free cut-off, three months before the latest published day). A later day, or live = true, costs $0.25 in bitcoin over Lightning, one payment per answer, no subscription: the first call returns an invoice instead of data (steps under payment).
get_score_history
Use for the raw daily series: one row per day with the Score, its classification and a live or back-calculated mark (daily since July 18, 2011; live publication since October 6, 2026; earlier days back-calculated with the current method), as JSON or CSV, 100 rows a page. Choose it to chart or export values; for one day use get_score_for_day, for summaries get_score_statistics, for classification periods get_classification_history. Free through the Delayed date (the free cut-off, three months before the latest published day). A later "to", or live = true, costs $0.25 in bitcoin over Lightning, one payment for every page of that query, no subscription: the first call returns an invoice instead of data (steps under payment). Example: from 2024-01-01, to 2024-03-31 and format csv return that quarter as one table; a range longer than a page comes back in parts, so repeat the same call with page = next_page until next_page is null.
get_score_live
Use for today's complete live picture in one paid call: the latest published BTC Intel Score (0–100) and its classification, its historical position (the share of recorded days below and above it, daily since July 2011; live since October 6, 2026, earlier days back-calculated with the current method), and the five market areas (Technical, On-chain, Market structure, Sentiment, Macro), each with its state, position on the five-step scale and last change. Not for a past day (use get_score_for_day), a range of days (get_score_history), statistics (get_score_statistics) or the market areas alone (free: get_market_read or get_market_detail). Context, not a forecast. $0.25 per call in bitcoin over Lightning, one payment per answer, no subscription: the first call returns an invoice instead of data (steps under payment). Research, not investment advice.
get_score_momentum
Use for recent change: how many points the Score moved over 1, 7, 30 and 90 days, and how many days it has held its current classification. Choose it to see whether the Score is rising or falling; for the values themselves use get_score_history, for averages and distributions get_score_statistics, for past classification periods get_classification_history. Free through the Delayed date (the free cut-off, three months before the latest published day). live = true reaches the latest published day and costs $0.25 in bitcoin over Lightning, one payment per answer, no subscription: the first call returns an invoice instead of data (steps under payment). Changes describe the past, not what comes next.
get_score_statistics
Use for a summary of the record: the historical position (the share of recorded days below and above the latest reading), mean, median and range, days per 10-point band, the share of days per classification, and counts of stretches and moves between classifications. Choose it to see how unusual a reading is; for the stretches themselves use get_classification_history, for daily values get_score_history, for recent change get_score_momentum. Free through the Delayed date (the free cut-off, three months before the latest published day). A later "to", or live = true, costs $0.25 in bitcoin over Lightning, one payment per answer, no subscription: the first call returns an invoice instead of data (steps under payment). The historical position describes where today's Score sits in the record, not what comes next.
market
get_market_detail
Use for the five market areas broken into their published components: each area (Technical, On-chain, Market structure, Sentiment, Macro) with its state on the five-step scale (Adverse, Cautionary, Neutral, Constructive, Supportive), explanation, last change and edition time, and its components (26 in all), each with its state and position. Choose it for component-level detail; for one summary line per page, including Cross-market, Liquidity and Cycle, use get_market_read; for the live Score with the five areas use get_score_live. Free. The published market read, as on the Analysis pages. The market components describe the published market read. The BTC Intel Score is computed separately.
get_market_read
Use for the current market read, one line per published page: the state word and summary line of the Full Read, the five areas (Technical, On-chain, Market structure, Sentiment, Macro), Cross-market, Liquidity and Cycle, each with its link, as printed on the site now. Choose it for one summary line per page and its link; for today's full briefing (price, forces, news, calendar) use get_bitcoin_today, for one area in depth get_area, for the five areas broken into 26 components get_market_detail, for the Brief headlines get_brief, for the Score get_score_for_day. Today only: for a past day's Full Read and five area words use get_daily_intelligence_brief with a date. Free, no arguments; a page not published at the moment is left out.
area
get_area
Use for one named area of the market ("how is on-chain?", "what is liquidity saying?"), as its Analysis page shows it today: the read, how confident it is and when it last changed, the read by horizon (days, weeks, months), the reasoning in plain English (what holds it up, what could change it) and the state of each of its parts. Areas: technical, on-chain, market-structure, sentiment and macro (the five areas of the read), and cross-market (how the five line up), liquidity (the price levels where forced buying and selling sit, funding and the next big options expiry) and cycle (where Bitcoin is in its four-year cycle). For every area at once with the price and news use get_bitcoin_today; for the parts of all five areas side by side get_market_detail. Free.
bitcoin
get_bitcoin_today
Use for "what is Bitcoin doing and why", first: one morning briefing from BTC Intel's published Brief and Full Read. It gives the price now with its 24-hour, 3-day and 12-month moves and the distance from the cycle high; the market read in one sentence; the five areas (Technical, On-chain, Market structure, Sentiment, Macro) with each one's reason and last change; the forces moving the market, each with the figures behind it (for example stablecoin supply, funding, ETF flows, VIX); what changed today, this week and this month; what would change the read; the day's top stories with what each changes for a holder; the tone of the last 48 hours of headlines; and the events coming up. detail "full" adds the full reasoning, the rest of the day's news and 14 days of calendar instead of 7. For the news alone use get_news, for the calendar alone get_calendar, for one area in depth get_area, for the BTC Intel Score get_score_for_day. The Brief is published at 6 AM ET; the price is rolling. Free.
brief
get_brief
Use for the latest public Brief (the daily read: headline, lead sentence, publication time, link) and the latest public Weekly Brief (headline, date, link). Only the latest editions: their full text is on the linked pages, past editions are not searchable here, and an edition not available comes back as null. Headlines and links only: for today's full briefing use get_bitcoin_today, for the day's stories and headlines get_news, for every read page's summary line get_market_read. Free, no arguments.
calendar
get_calendar
Use for the events ahead that can move Bitcoin: macro releases (CPI, jobs, the Fed), options expiries, the difficulty adjustment and Bitcoin dates, each with its date, Eastern time and one line on why it matters. Example: days 3 lists what lands before the weekend. For today's read and news use get_bitcoin_today. Free.
classification
get_classification_history
Use for the periods the Score spent in each classification (Low, Moderate-low, Neutral, Elevated, High): the start, end and length in days of each, newest first, 100 a page, each marked live or back-calculated. Choose it to see when a classification last held and for how long; for daily values use get_score_history, for shares and counts across the record get_score_statistics. Free through the Delayed date (the free cut-off, three months before the latest published day). A later "to", or live = true, costs $0.25 in bitcoin over Lightning, one payment for every page of that query, no subscription: the first call returns an invoice instead of data (steps under payment).
daily
get_daily_intelligence_brief
Use for one structured record of a day: the Full Read and the five market areas with their state words (Adverse, Cautionary, Neutral, Constructive or Supportive) and, for the latest day, the Brief's headline and top stories. Choose it for a stored day's record: the latest day carries the headline and stories, an earlier day only the five state words. The stored reads begin Oct 5, 2026, so the free record starts in early January 2027; for today's briefing use get_bitcoin_today. For the latest Brief and Weekly Brief headlines with links use get_brief, for today's read page lines get_market_read, for the areas' 26 components get_market_detail, for the Score get_score_for_day. Free through the Delayed date (the free cut-off, three months before the latest published day). A later date, or live = true for the latest day with headline and stories, costs $0.25 in bitcoin over Lightning, one payment per answer, no subscription: the first call returns an invoice instead of data (steps under payment).
methodology
get_methodology
Use for definitions, not data: what the Score is, its five classifications, the record's dates, how it is published and checked, and what live, back-calculated, historical position and the Delayed date mean. The method itself is private. For Score values use get_score_for_day or get_score_live; for the Intel DCA rules get_plan_rules. Free, no arguments; one text document.
news
get_news
Use for the day's Bitcoin news: the three top stories, each summarised with what it changes for a holder; the rest of the day's news rewritten in one line each; the tone of the last 48 hours of headlines (how many positive, negative and neutral, from how many outlets); and the headlines themselves, unedited, with outlet, age and tone. scope "top" gives the stories and lines only, "important" (default) adds the important headlines, "all" every headline; tone narrows the headlines to one tone. For the market read and the price use get_bitcoin_today. Free.
plan
get_plan_rules
Use for the published Intel DCA ladder: what each plan (Defensive, Balanced, Growth) does on payday in each Score band (buy, save, or sell a set share once), word for word from btcintel.org/intel-dca/, with the notes under the ladder. Example: plan Balanced with score 34 returns the 20 to 39 band of the Balanced plan and its payday action there. Rules only: no personal plan, no advice, no backtest. For the Score to read the ladder against use get_score_for_day or get_score_live; for what the classifications mean get_methodology. Free.

BTC Intel — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can BTC Intel do?
It exposes 16 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_area, get_bitcoin_today, get_brief, get_calendar, get_classification_history, get_daily_intelligence_brief and 10 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is BTC Intel mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around score and market. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is BTC Intel working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 296 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Did BTC Intel ever remove tools?
Yes. get_delayed_score, get_btc_intel_score, get_live_score are no longer exposed — we recorded the date each one disappeared. A tool vanishing usually means a breaking change for anything that depended on it.
How do I connect BTC Intel?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does BTC Intel need an API key?
No. BTC Intel completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 16 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is BTC Intel?
It answers our handshake in 296 ms on average, which is faster than 47% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
