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

investment
get_investment_thesis
Return the complete thesis for `slug`: the economic framework (pillars with [E]/[M]/[K] evidence grades, falsifiers and a deep-dive), the rule-based portfolio (asset blocks × conservative/balanced/offensive weights + sizing rationale), and the stress evidence (per-tier backtest, per-regime median drawdown, real historical episodes, pre-registered claim verdicts, and the hedge hold/break behaviour). This is the 'instant portfolio with all tested attributes'. Discover slugs with list_investment_theses(). Descriptive, not advisory — the agent decides suitability.
list_investment_theses
Discover the investment-thesis catalog. Each entry is a descriptive case study that pairs an economic framework with a rule-based portfolio and the synthetic + historical stress evidence for that allocation. Returns one compact summary per thesis (slug, title, one-liner, tags, risk tiers, framework summary, headline finding). Call get_investment_thesis(slug) for the full framework / portfolio / stress evidence, or read the thesis://{slug} resource. Descriptive, not advisory — the agent decides what is suitable.
portfolio
portfolio_compare
Compare two portfolios (A = reference, B = candidate revision) on IDENTICAL simulated substrate paths — a paired design, so every delta is attributable to the weights, not seed noise. Returns drawdown-distribution deltas (median/worst/quantiles), probability-weighted scenario summaries, per-scenario outcome deltas, risk-concentration shift (Euler decomposition), and which diversification failures the candidate introduces or resolves. revision_required flags a candidate that deepens the worst-path drawdown or introduces a new diversification failure — the case where a revision made robustness worse. Provide holdings_a / holdings_b as lists of {asset, weight}. Descriptive, not advisory; neither portfolio is recommended or ranked.
portfolio_stress_test
Stress a multi-asset portfolio across cross-asset regimes (baseline / risk_off_crisis / rate_shock). Provide `holdings` as a list of {asset, weight}; weights are normalised. Returns, per regime: portfolio return, worst-episode drawdown, a per-leg decomposition, and a cross_asset_finding (diversification_intact / hedge_holds / hedge_breaks / shared_drawdown) describing how the holdings behaved TOGETHER. The joint correlation structure (incl. the bond hedge that can break under rate shocks) is baked into a pre-computed substrate, so Tier-1 is instant over a fixed universe (read portfolio://universe). Optional `costs` ({rebalance: none|daily|monthly|quarterly|band, annual_costs: {asset: fraction}, transaction_cost_bps}) adds a cost_impact block: frictionless vs the stated rebalancing policy + costs via a path-loop engine with real unit accounting, paired on identical paths. The substrate is a fixed 4-asset universe (SPY, TLT, GOLD, BTC; read portfolio://universe). For ANY other ticker or a custom multi-asset book, use build_portfolio in assess mode (portfolios={name:{ticker:weight}}), which calibrates and stresses an arbitrary universe live. Descriptive, not advisory.
backtest
backtest_integrity
Confront a backtest claim with its over-optimism failure modes before trusting it. Given an annualized Sharpe + the number of configurations tried + the backtest window (YYYY-MM-DD), returns: the DEFLATED Sharpe — the expected MAXIMUM Sharpe achievable by chance grows with the trial count, so a high in-sample Sharpe is a selection artifact (Bailey & López de Prado); which CRISIS REGIMES were ABSENT from the backtest window (untested, from the historical-anchor catalogue); and a base-rate caveat. If the trial count is unknown — the usual case for an agent reasoning from a backtest — the Sharpe is flagged as not-deflatable / UNPROVEN. All inputs optional; supply as many as known. Descriptive, not advisory.
challenge
challenge_strategy
Adversarial-evaluation primitive — the semantic integration layer of the platform. Given a strategy identifier, returns a 3-layer analysis: (1) outcome metrics in the worst regimes the strategy was evaluated against, (2) vulnerability profile in the 8-dimension strategy vulnerability ontology with severity classification, (3) descriptor attribution showing which regime descriptors most strongly couple to the strategy's failure. v1 supports only 'buy_and_hold' (the outcome matrix is built once per strategy); future versions will support arbitrary strategy specs once the parser-driven strategy backtest pipeline is wired in. Read ontology://strategy-vulnerabilities for the vulnerability vocabulary.
describe
describe_regime
Single-regime introspection: returns the median behavioural descriptors of a known regime, the z-scores vs the catalogue population (so you can see what makes THIS regime distinct from the average), an English characterisation generated from the most extreme descriptors, and the top 2 nearest neighbours as a preview. Complements find_similar_regime: that tool ranks neighbours of a target, this tool tells you what a single regime IS. Read this before searching if you want to reason about one regime first.
dossier
get_dossier
Compile recorded diagnostic responses into ONE citable record — a proper process documents itself. Every envelope response (MCP and REST) is recorded automatically, keyed by its request_id. Provide explicit request_ids (compiled chronologically) or last_n for the most recent entries. Returns the entries with their gate signals (revision_required + grounding_summary each) plus a ready-to-cite markdown document; revision_required on the dossier itself flags workflows containing unaddressed gate signals. Single verbatim entries: GET /api/v1/dossier/{request_id} on the REST surface. A factual record, not an assessment — descriptive, never advisory.
factor
factor_decomposition
Reveal HIDDEN risk concentration: a portfolio can be capital-diversified while its RISK is dominated by one factor. Returns the Euler risk-contribution decomposition (RC_i = w_i*(Sigma*w)_i / w'Sigma*w, summing to 1) alongside the capital weights, using the empirical covariance of real returns. For this universe each asset proxies a factor (SPY=equity-beta, TLT=duration, GOLD=real-asset, BTC=crypto). E.g. a 60/40 is ~83% equity risk; a 50/50 SPY/BTC is ~86% BTC risk despite 50/50 capital. Descriptive, not advisory.
ips
ips_gate
Check a portfolio against an Investment Policy Statement BEFORE accepting it — the planning step a proper process does FIRST (CFA). Provide holdings + IPS constraints (max_drawdown_tolerance as a fraction e.g. 0.15, time_horizon_years, liquidity_need 'low'|'medium'|'high'). Runs the stress test internally and flags where the proposal VIOLATES the stated policy: worst stress drawdown exceeds tolerance; a short horizon cannot absorb a deep drawdown; material holdings are less liquid than the stated need. A HARD GATE, not a score. Descriptive, not advisory.
long
long_horizon_stress
Distribution of multi-year wealth paths for a savings plan (monthly_contribution) or a withdrawal plan (monthly_withdrawal, inflation-indexed by default) on a portfolio from the substrate universe. Multi-year paths chain ~2y model blocks (block-bootstrap, disclosed); long-run drift is RE-ANCHORED to stated capital-market assumptions (overridable via long_run_drift; the substrate's raw stress drift would compound a structural bear universe — both are echoed in the output) while the model's path shape (vol, clustering, correlations, hedge-breaks) is kept. Costs are ON by default. Returns terminal-wealth quantiles (nominal + real), ruin/shortfall probabilities, a sequence-of-returns diagnosis (same plan, bad vs good first two years), and a drift-sensitivity block (assumptions − 2pp). Amounts in the caller's currency unit. Descriptive, not advisory — no rate, allocation, or product is recommended.
market
market_regime_map
Compressed cross-category map of the current market state in ONE call: for 18 category proxies (US large-cap + tech, the 9 SPDR sectors, developed ex-US, emerging markets, long Treasuries, high-yield credit, gold, oil, Bitcoin) the operational regime (BULL/SIDEWAYS/BEAR/CRISIS), model-conditional regime probabilities over a 5- or 21-trading-day horizon, stress probability vs its unconditional baseline, a descriptive historical forward-return distribution conditional on the current regime label, and an equity-factor commonality flag (US sectors largely re-express one factor — the map is fewer independent signals than rows). Per (asset, horizon) cell only the preregistered, out-of-sample-validated model tier ships (covariate logit / persistence / unconditional — see tier_pvalues). Deliberately ships NO directional up/down forecast: regime membership is the validated signal, not return direction. Use regime_outlook for single-asset depth with as_of support. Descriptive, not a market prediction, not advisory.
regime
regime_outlook
Model-conditional probabilities that an asset is in each market regime (BULL / SIDEWAYS / BEAR / CRISIS, operational trailing-vol/drift labels) after a 5- or 21-trading-day horizon — the probability complement to the conditional stress tools: stress tools answer 'what happens GIVEN regime X', this answers 'how likely is regime X from today's observable state'. Ships only the preregistered, out-of-sample-validated tier (covariate logit; seasonality was tested and falsified); the persistence and unconditional baselines are reported alongside so an agent can see how much the model adds. Validated assets: SPY, QQQ, GLD, TLT. Optional as_of (YYYY-MM-DD) computes the outlook at a historical date. Probabilities describe membership in operationally defined regime classes — descriptive, not a market prediction, not advisory.
similar
find_similar_regime
Nearest-neighbour retrieval over the cached regime catalogue. Provide EITHER a reference_profile_hint (use that bundle's median descriptors as target) OR a descriptor_target dict (partial spec, missing dimensions are ignored — only the provided ones contribute to distance). Optional asset_filter restricts to one asset. Returns top_n matches with similarity_score (0..1), euclidean distance in z-score space, and per-descriptor signed deltas so the agent can see WHY a regime matched. Read ontology://regime-descriptors for the descriptor definitions, and regimes://descriptors for the full catalogue.
stress
run_stress_test
Run a buy-and-hold backtest against the synthetic stress regime identified by profile_hint. Returns a structured diagnostic: robustness score (0-100), per-FM-bucket failure-behavior classification with confidence + context, and the resolved regime parameters that were actually evaluated. v1 supports only buy-and-hold. To discover available regime profile_hints, read the `regimes://available` resource. Diagnostic is descriptive, not advisory.
submit
submit_feedback
Persist structured improvement feedback about a previous tool response. Provide your agent identity, the request_id you are commenting on, and one or more feedback items each carrying category (from the FeedbackCategory ontology), severity, observation, optional suggested_action, and agent_confidence (0..1). Read `feedback://insights` to see aggregated cross-agent feedback.

Crashtestyourstrategy — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Crashtestyourstrategy do?
It exposes 16 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: backtest_integrity, challenge_strategy, describe_regime, factor_decomposition, find_similar_regime, get_dossier 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 Crashtestyourstrategy mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around portfolio and investment. 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 Crashtestyourstrategy working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 133 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Crashtestyourstrategy?
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 is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Crashtestyourstrategy need an API key?
No. Crashtestyourstrategy 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 Crashtestyourstrategy?
It answers our handshake in 133 ms on average, which is faster than 77% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Crashtestyourstrategy open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
