HPSILab Quant Finance missed 3 checks this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: HPSILAB_API_KEY (HPSILab API key generated and managed in HPSILab Settings.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Available tools 10

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

generate
generate_stock_images
Generate stock-report PNG images and return their URLs. This is intentionally separate from analyze_stock so the JSON analysis stays fast and light. The backend reuses the same Growth Engine image generators used by email/social publishing. Args: symbol: Stock symbol, e.g. "RXRX". force: Regenerate images instead of using cached PNGs. Defaults to True so manually requested images reflect the latest available data. types: Optional subset of chart types. Allowed values are "ai_prediction", "iv_radar", "option_pressure", "monte_carlo", and "equity_curves". Omit to generate every chart type.
generate_stock_research_report
Full markdown research report with five stock-report charts. Pro tool ($0.35/call via x402 for anonymous callers; free within plan limits for signed-in accounts, subject to a monthly report quota). Runs analyze_stock and stock-report image generation concurrently, then renders a presentation-ready markdown report (direction, direction score, bullish / bearish factors, source-tool status, and the five chart embeds). The markdown is returned for display and the same data is mirrored in structured JSON. Signed-in hpsilab users call this within their plan's free rate limits. Anonymous / tokenless agents pay per call via x402 (USDC on Base) when payments are enabled — send the x402 payment in the request _meta. Args: symbol: Stock symbol, e.g. "RXRX". refresh: Bypass the backend's fresh IV cache for the IV-driven modules. Defaults to False. force_images: Force a fresh image render instead of reusing the backend's image cache. Defaults to False.
analyze
analyze_stock
Aggregate all quant tools into one JSON stock analysis. The tool reuses the existing MCP tools as its data sources, then derives a direction signal, direction score, bullish factors, bearish factors and plain-English summary. If one underlying tool is gated, unavailable or raises an error, the remaining tools still contribute to the final result (status "partial"); if every underlying tool fails, the whole call fails (status "error", isError=True) instead of a misleadingly "successful" empty analysis. Args: symbol: Stock symbol, e.g. "NVDA". refresh: Request fresh IV Radar data instead of using the backend's fresh IV cache. Defaults to False. lang: Language for `summary`, `bullish_factors` and `bearish_factors` - "en" (default), "zh" or "ja"; regional forms like "zh-CN" are accepted. Everything else in the response, `signal` included, is language-independent, so an existing caller that omits this gets byte-identical output to before.
equity
get_equity_curve
Backtest performance of the quant strategy across your watchlist: Sharpe ratio, max drawdown, win rate and total return per symbol. Available to every authenticated plan (Free / Pro / Enterprise); subject to the caller's plan requests/day and requests/minute limits. Args: ticker: Optional symbol to show just one row, e.g. "SPY". Leave blank for all.
monte
get_monte_carlo
Monte Carlo price simulation for the next ~10 trading days: thousands of random price paths estimate a likely price range and the odds of finishing higher. Args: ticker: Stock symbol, e.g. "AAPL".
option
get_option_pressure
Option-chain pressure map for the nearest weekly/monthly expiry — Max Pain, dealer Gamma Wall, likely weekly high, and an extreme squeeze target. Args: ticker: Stock symbol, e.g. "SPY".
prediction
get_ai_prediction
AI next-day prediction: probability the stock closes UP, a plain buy/watch/sell-lean signal, and how strongly the models agree (consensus). Available to every authenticated plan (Free / Pro / Enterprise); subject to the caller's plan requests/day and requests/minute limits. Args: ticker: Stock symbol, e.g. "TSLA".
pretrade
get_pretrade_risk_scan
Full pre-trade risk scan JSON for a stock. Pro tool ($0.15/call via x402 for anonymous callers; free within plan limits for signed-in accounts). Signed-in hpsilab users call this within their plan's free rate limits. Anonymous / tokenless agents pay per call via x402 (USDC on Base) when payments are enabled — send the x402 payment in the request _meta. Args: symbol: Stock symbol, e.g. "NVDA".
radar
get_iv_radar
Implied-volatility (IV) structure for a stock: how expensive options are, whether volatility is being squeezed, and whether traders are paying up for upside (calls) or downside (puts). Available to all signed-in users. Args: ticker: Stock symbol, e.g. "NVDA". refresh: Bypass the backend's fresh IV cache and request the latest option-chain pull. Defaults to False.
register
register_account
Register a free hpsilab account for yourself, with no human involvement, and receive an API key immediately. Call this when you are hitting anonymous daily limits and want a higher allowance. You do not need a password, a wallet, or a web browser. The account is bound to you server-side, so calls you make after this are metered as your account even though you cannot change your own Authorization header. Registering keeps the anonymous daily allowance until the email address is confirmed; confirming it unlocks the full Free plan. Ask the human you are working with to click the link in the email that will arrive. A valid user email address is required. Do not call this tool with an empty or fabricated email address. If the user's email is unavailable, ask the user to provide it before calling register_account. Args: email: The real user email address that will receive verification.

HPSILab Quant Finance — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can HPSILab Quant Finance do?
It exposes 10 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: analyze_stock, generate_stock_images, generate_stock_research_report, get_ai_prediction, get_equity_curve, get_iv_radar and 4 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 →
Is HPSILab Quant Finance 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 878 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect HPSILab Quant Finance?
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 HPSILab Quant Finance need an API key?
No. HPSILab Quant Finance completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 10 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is HPSILab Quant Finance?
It answers our handshake in 878 ms on average, which is faster than 11% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use HPSILab Quant Finance?
The pypi package hpsilab-quant-finance-mcp was installed 380 times in the last week. Week over week that is -64%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is HPSILab Quant Finance open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 1 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.
