Analyzing Llm Rationale MCP Server

Foresea: Autonomous Prediction Market Intelligence & LLM Rationale Benchmark

Foresea (foresea.ink) is an autonomous prediction market intelligence platform and empirical research framework. It combines real-time probability forecasting across Polymarket and Kalshi, statistical edge discovery, multi-model shadow trading tournaments, an autonomous 19-tool ReAct execution agent, and a public Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.

The repository also serves as the artifact for research studying how explicit rationale instructions, evidence injection, and reasoning structures affect LLM forecasting behavior and calibration on Metaculus-style questions.

When attach_evidence is true and no news_articles are supplied, /predict fetches and ranks current news evidence from GDELT, Google News RSS, and Stooq by default, injects it into the model prompt, and returns the selected evidence_articles with the forecast. Supplying news_articles skips automatic retrieval and uses the caller-provided evidence.

Use evidence_sources when a client only needs the source list and links. Use evidence_articles when a client needs the article-level details that were attached to the model prompt. rationale and model_rationale are generated by gpt-oss-120b and explain why the model chose its answer and confidence. When market_probability is supplied, market_analysis is computed deterministically from the model probability and the market-implied probability.

Edge Board & Autonomous Shadow Trading Desk

Foresea continuously evaluates state-of-the-art LLMs against real-world prediction markets, tracking statistical edge, calibration accuracy, and shadow portfolio performance across three dedicated views:

1. Live Markets Disagreement (/edge or /edge/markets)

• Real-Time Edge Ranking: Quantifies the statistical gap between model forecasts and live market pricing across Polymarket and Kalshi: $$\text{Edge} = P_{\text{model}} - P_{\text{market}}$$
• Sizing & Recommendation: Computes Fractional Kelly allocations and categorizes actionable trades (buy_yes, buy_no, hold).
• Calibration & Resolution: Backed by hourly snapshots committed to static/track_record_live.json, calculating Brier scores, Expected Calibration Error (ECE), and lead-time skill once markets resolve.

2. Mark-to-Market Evaluation (/edge/mtm)

• Continuous Portfolio Valuation: Evaluates paper positions at live bid/ask quotes rather than relying on eventual settlement alone.
• Unrealized vs. Realized PnL: Provides an institutional-grade view of trade trajectory and volatility exposure across open horizons.

3. Agentic Autonomous Trading Tournament (/edge/agentic)

• Multi-Model Tournament: Evaluates 8 distinct LLMs acting as autonomous portfolio managers:
  • Gemma 4 26B (gemma-4-26b-a4b-it)
  • Qwen 3.8 27B (qwen3-8-27b)
  • GPT-OSS 120B (gpt-oss-120b)
  • GLM 5.3 (glm-5-3) & GLM 5.3 Flash (glm-5-3-flash)
  • DeepSeek V4 Flash (deepseek-v4-flash)
  • MiniMax M3 (minimax-m3)
  • Llama 3.3 70B (llama-3.3-70b-instruct)
  • Baseline: crowd-follow (no-LLM consensus control)
• Independent $10,000 Portfolios: Each model starts with a simulated $10,000 cash balance and autonomy to scan markets, evaluate orderbooks, and execute Immediate-or-Cancel (IOC) paper orders.
• Equity Curves & Cycle Health: Renders cumulative returns ($10,000 reinvested), drawdown metrics, trade logs, and hourly cycle execution health (tracking provider availability, token budgets, and trade triggers).

5-minute crypto markets

The local crypto micro-market model in src/analyzing_llm_rationale/crypto_5m.py is built for 5-minute UP/DOWN markets where the goal is profitable selective trading, not constant action. It combines:

• shrunken-drift lognormal moneyness pricing,
• AR(1) return forecasting with EWMA volatility,
• fixed or adaptive logistic ML features from momentum, reversal, volatility regime, range position, and volume imbalance.

Each forecast returns predicted_outcome, probability_up, component_probabilities, model-vs-market edge, and a fee-aware strategy. The strategy only recommends a trade when net expected value clears fees and the configured no-trade threshold.

.venv/bin/python scripts/crypto_5m_backtest.py \
  --benchmark \
  --symbols BTC,ETH,SOL \
  --days 1 \
  --max-candles 1600 \
  --lookback-minutes 60 \
  --horizon-minutes 5 \
  --market-probability 0.50 \
  --fee-bps 2 \
  --ml-modes fixed,adaptive \

  --selection-fraction 0.6 \
  --folds 4 \
  --training-window 120 \
  --max-rows 80 \
  --benchmark-log data/crypto_5m_benchmark_runs.jsonl

Use fold_aggregate and evidence_quality before risking capital. If selection is unstable or holdout PnL is weak, the correct profitable action is to abstain. --benchmark-log appends a compact JSONL record for tracking whether the selected threshold and model mode keep working across benchmark runs. Resolve completed markets against Binance candles:

.venv/bin/python scripts/crypto_5m_backtest.py \
  --resolve \
  --symbol BTCUSDT \
  --target-price 62400.52 \
  --start-time-ms 1780000000000 \
  --horizon-minutes 5 \
  --predicted-outcome down

The resolver returns pending before expiry and resolved afterward with actual_outcome, resolved_price, and prediction_correct.

Record and resolve paper signals over time:

.venv/bin/python scripts/crypto_5m_backtest.py \
  --paper-signal \
  --symbol BTCUSDT \
  --market-probability 0.50 \
  --fee-bps 2 \
  --signal-log data/crypto_5m_signal_log.jsonl

  --iterations 12 \
  --sleep-seconds 60 \
  --market-probability 0.50 \
  --fee-bps 2 \
  --signal-log data/crypto_5m_signal_log.jsonl

The signal log is the running dataset for model improvement: each record stores the forecast, recommendation, later actual_outcome, correctness, and pnl_per_contract for actual buy_up/buy_down paper trades. Use --signal-summary to audit whether resolved paper trades are positive after fees; trade_ready stays false until the configured trade count, PnL, and hit rate thresholds are met. Use --dry-run with --paper-loop to preview signals without writing the log.

Production Deployment Notes

Production is served from the custom domain:

https://foresea.ink

The Cloud Run service name, project ID, and region are set at deploy time via gcloud run deploy.

Required runtime environment:

• SCADS_AI_API_KEY: Secret Manager secret used by hosted model calls.
• MODEL_DEVICE=cpu: production Cloud Run runs the CPU image.
• CUSTOM_DOMAIN=foresea.ink: redirects *.run.app requests to the public domain.
• GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID: Google OAuth web client ID used by /auth/config.
• GITHUB_CLIENT_ID / GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET: GitHub OAuth app credentials. The OAuth app's callback URL must be the site origin (e.g. https://foresea.ink/). When unset, the "Continue with GitHub" button is hidden and /auth/github returns 503. Sign-in also works with Google and email/password.
• SESSION_SECRET: long random string used to sign browser session JWTs and derive domain-separated, non-reversible references for authenticated analytics. Rotating it starts a new attribution cohort; it never exposes account emails.

The OAuth client must allow these JavaScript origins:

https://foresea.ink
https://www.foresea.ink
https://<cloud-run-service-url>.run.app

To update non-secret environment variables without replacing the existing SESSION_SECRET, use --update-env-vars:

gcloud run services update <service-name> \
  --region <region> \
  --project <project-id> \
  --update-env-vars MODEL_DEVICE=cpu,CUSTOM_DOMAIN=foresea.ink,GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID='<your-google-client-id>'

Verify the deployed auth config and health endpoint:

curl https://foresea.ink/auth/config
curl https://foresea.ink/health

Scaling and caching

The server is built to scale horizontally on Cloud Run:

• Authentication supports Google One-Tap and email/password (/auth/register, /auth/login). Passwords are stored as salted PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 hashes; accounts live in Cloud Datastore.
• Caching and rate limiting use Redis when REDIS_URL is set, so they are shared across instances; otherwise they fall back to per-instance in-memory state and fail open. /predict (non-personalised requests), evidence retrieval, and /extract URL fetches are cached; public GETs send Cache-Control.

Live track record

GET /track-record serves the public forecast track record. The heavy tick loop does not run on Cloud Run: .github/workflows/track-record-tick.yml runs hourly on GitHub Actions, updates data/track_record_store.json as the source-of-truth entity store, writes the public aggregate to static/track_record_live.json, and commits both files back to main. At runtime, Cloud Run fetches the committed aggregate from raw GitHub, falling back to the bundled file and then the static backtest in static/track_record.json.

The Action discovers short-to-medium-horizon Polymarket/Kalshi markets in separate close-date bands (2-7, 7-14, 14-30, 30-60 days by default) and calls /predict once per newly snapshotted market/model. If /predict is protected, set the GitHub secret PREDICT_API_KEY; no server-side /track-record/tick endpoint is required. TRACK_RECORD_TOKEN is optional and only enables the agent-enrolled market bridge.

The default scheduled forecast job is deliberately cost-capped: it runs every 6 hours, snapshots at most 2 markets per venue, and forecasts only gpt-oss-120b plus the no-LLM crowd-follow baseline. Use the manual workflow dispatch input reforecast_each_tick=1 for a one-off full refresh instead of forcing every scheduled run to reforecast all open markets.

The homepage market desk uses GET /radar, which is derived from static/track_record_live.json and its edge_board. Radar highlights current model-vs-market gaps and keeps the first screen fast by reusing the committed track-record aggregate instead of scanning venues on every page load.

Raise the Cloud Run throughput ceiling (no idle cost while min-instances=0):

gcloud run services update analyzing-llm-rationale --region us-central1 \
  --max-instances 20 --concurrency 40 --memory 1Gi

For the lowest-cost public deployment, keep the service on request-only CPU, scale to zero, and cap burst scale-out. This is the profile used by the deploy workflow. Startup CPU boost stays enabled because it reduces cold-start latency without keeping an idle instance warm:

gcloud run services update analyzing-llm-rationale \
  --region us-central1 \
  --project brave-drive-471109-d9 \
  --cpu 1 \
  --memory 512Mi \
  --min-instances 0 \
  --max-instances 3 \
  --concurrency 20 \
  --timeout 180 \
  --cpu-throttling \
  --cpu-boost \
  --update-env-vars INTERACTIVE_DEFAULT_MODEL=gemma-4-26b-a4b-it,INTERACTIVE_MAX_TOKENS=384,CHAT_PROVIDER_TIMEOUT_S=15,CHAT_PROVIDER_MAX_RETRIES=0,EVIDENCE_TIMEOUT_S=6,EVIDENCE_MAX_CONCURRENCY=4

Measure deployed forecast latency after each runtime change:

py scripts/measure_forecast_latency.py \
  --url https://foresea.ink \
  --mode stream \
  --models minimax-m3 \
  --runs 3 \
  --no-attach-evidence \
  --max-tokens 384

If cold starts still dominate, raise --min-instances to 1 as an explicit latency/cost tradeoff.

Market search runs in-process in the main API. The optional Go marketd microservice is build/test-only in GitHub Actions and is not deployed to Cloud Run by default.

Artifact Registry retention

CI pushes commit-tagged Docker images to Artifact Registry on every deploy. Keep the docker repository cleanup policy active so old images do not accumulate:

gcloud artifacts repositories set-cleanup-policies docker \
  --location us-central1 \
  --project brave-drive-471109-d9 \
  --policy infra/artifact-registry-cleanup-policy.json \
  --no-dry-run

The policy deletes images older than 7 days, keeps the newest 5 versions per package, and always keeps the main tag.

Docker builds run in GitHub Actions, not Cloud Build; no Cloud Build trigger or staging bucket is required for the normal deploy path.

Once max-instances > 1, provision Memorystore for Redis (billable) and set REDIS_URL so rate limiting and caching stay correct across instances:

gcloud services enable redis.googleapis.com vpcaccess.googleapis.com compute.googleapis.com
gcloud redis instances create foresea-cache --size=1 --region=us-central1 --tier=basic
gcloud compute networks vpc-access connectors create foresea-vpc \
  --region=us-central1 --range=10.8.0.0/28
gcloud run services update analyzing-llm-rationale --region us-central1 \
  --vpc-connector foresea-vpc \
  --update-env-vars REDIS_URL=redis://<instance-host>:6379

Using the API

See additional Kalshi and Polymarket endpoints for historical data, account pagination, order management and native exchange streams.

The public Cloud Run API is the easiest integration target. It accepts forecasting questions and returns a typed forecast, model rationale, and optional evidence articles. It is built for resolvable forecasts, not general Q&A.

Web app runtime state

Anonymous chats stay in browser localStorage. Signed-in users sync conversations through /chat/conversations, while watchlist tracking uses FavoriteMarket entities exposed through /favorites and /favorites/prices. The favorites digest runs from .github/workflows/favorites-digest.yml via scripts/favorites_digest.py.

Forecast sharing is opt-in: clients call POST /forecasts/share to create a public GET /forecast/{share_id} page. Do not expose full private chat history in shared forecast views.

Agent: automated intelligence layer

POST /agent/analyze runs the whole pipeline autonomously: resolve the market (fetch a live Polymarket/Kalshi price when an identifier is given) → gather evidence + forecast → price the edge → run any custom skills → recommend. It returns one structured report.

curl -X POST https://foresea.ink/agent/analyze \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "platform": "polymarket",
    "slug": "will-the-fed-cut-rates-in-2026",
    "skills": [
      {"name": "Base rate check", "instruction": "Compare to historical base rates."},
      {"name": "Risk", "instruction": "What would most change this forecast?"}
    ]
  }'

Custom skills are your own analysis steps — each runs as an extra model pass over the question, forecast, and evidence, and comes back as a named section in the report. Provide a question directly, or a platform + market identifier (slug/market_id for Polymarket, ticker for Kalshi). Pass history (prior turns) for multi-turn follow-ups — with history, short follow-ups like "why?" or "what about June?" are answered in context. BYOK fields (openrouter_api_key, openrouter_model, provider_base_url) apply here too. The report includes recommendation (buy_yes/buy_no/hold/no_market_price), edge, model_probability, market_probability, thesis, evidence_sources, and pipeline (the ordered steps that ran).

Autonomous 19-Tool ReAct Execution Loop

Foresea agents utilize an autonomous ReAct (Reason + Act) loop with dynamic plan formation, tool selection, reflection, and JSON error recovery:

• Forecasting & Statistical Edge:

  • forecast: Calibrated probability forecasting with confidence and rationales.
  • get_market: Normalized quote and market metadata lookup across Polymarket and Kalshi.
  • scan_markets: Discover live markets filtered and ranked by model-vs-market edge.
  • batch_quotes: High-throughput multi-venue quote aggregation.
  • search_evidence & web_search: Live multi-source retrieval (GDELT, Google News, SearXNG, Tavily, Stooq).
  • track_record & edge_board: Historical calibration metrics and open ranked alpha opportunities.
  • market_leaderboard: Track record rankings of top prediction market traders.

• Venue Orderbooks & Microstructure:

  • exchange_status: Kalshi exchange status, market trading state, and operational schedule.
  • orderbook: Live bids and asks orderbook depth for Kalshi tickers or Polymarket tokens.
  • market_tags: Polymarket category tags and market classification taxonomy.
  • price_history: Historical price points, timeseries, and OHLC candlesticks.
  • live_data: Real-time sports statistics, play-by-play data, and live game feeds.
  • polymarket_meta: Event series hierarchy, resolution rules, and community discussions.
  • recent_trades: Real-time trade tape and prints (prices, contract sizes, timestamps).

• Execution & State Management:

  • place_trade: Immediate-or-Cancel (IOC) paper execution against live orderbook quotes with shadow balance updates.
  • manage_notes: Scratchpad state persistence across ReAct reasoning turns.
  • fetch_api: Safe, sandboxed HTTPS retrieval for external data verification.

Automatic Calling Aliases: TOOL_ALIASES in agent_capabilities.py normalizes alternative LLM naming conventions (e.g., http_get → fetch_api, candlesticks → price_history, comments → polymarket_meta, trades → recent_trades, leaderboard → market_leaderboard).

Durable private Agent Runs

Every signed-in call to POST /agent/analyze (including the streamed endpoint) also creates a private AgentRun. It retains a bounded, secret-free input snapshot, lifecycle timeline, model report, and any review-only trade handoff. Use GET /agent/runs for the newest operator timeline and GET /agent/runs/{run_id} for one full report. The snapshot intentionally excludes provider keys, browser credentials, conversation history, and raw custom-skill instructions. An Agent Run is research only: even when it has a trade handoff, it cannot create, size, or submit an order; the user must still create and explicitly confirm a durable Trade Run in the terminal.

Copied agents: private, versioned research recipes

Signed-in users can copy a public Foresea model from the Agentic board. The copy is saved under the user's account as an immutable version-1 research recipe; it contains the public source model and analysis instruction only—never the source agent's private context, shadow-account history, exchange connection, order size, or trading permission. Use POST /agent-profiles/copy with an allowlisted source_agent_id, then pass the returned agent_profile_id to POST /agent/analyze.

When a profile is selected, the server resolves the profile's model and instruction itself, ignores client BYOK/provider/model overrides, and forces the fixed research pipeline (no tool loop or trade tool). The resulting report returns its profile ID, source, version, and research_only mode for reproducibility. A profile may prepare the existing review-only trade handoff, but it cannot create or submit an exchange order; a signed-in user must still create a durable Trade Run and explicitly confirm PLACE REAL ORDER in the trading terminal.

Edge scan — find mispriced markets

GET /agent/scan lists live markets on a venue, forecasts each, and returns the ones whose model-vs-market gap clears min_edge, ranked by |edge|.

curl "https://foresea.ink/agent/scan?platform=polymarket&limit=4&min_edge=0.1"

Params: platform (polymarket or kalshi), limit (markets to analyse, max 8), min_edge (default 0.1), evidence_top_k. Each market runs a full forecast, so it's bounded by limit and the result is cached briefly. Response: {platform, scanned, opportunities: [{question, market_url, market_probability, model_probability, edge, recommendation}]}. In the web app, the desk's "⚡ Scan Polymarket for mispriced markets" button calls this.

MCP server: let AI agents call Foresea as tools

Foresea exposes a public remote MCP server at:

https://foresea.ink/mcp/

It is advertised for discovery at:

https://foresea.ink/.well-known/mcp/server.json

The remote MCP server is a thin tool layer over the public API. It exposes:

• foresea_forecast: produce calibrated probability forecasts with rationale and news evidence.
• foresea_analyze_market: evaluate a specific Polymarket/Kalshi market with model-vs-market edge & thesis.
• foresea_scan_markets: scan live markets ranked by model-vs-market disagreement.
• foresea_batch_quotes: fetch multi-market quotes across venues in one roundtrip.

<foresea-card data-share-id="abc123xyz"></foresea-card>

3. Real-Money Quant Execution Bridge

An opt-in automated execution runner (scripts/live_trader_bridge.py) connecting Foresea's statistical edge signals to live prediction venues (Polymarket & Kalshi) with strict risk management guards:

# Dry-run simulation (safe default)
python scripts/live_trader_bridge.py --dry-run --min-edge 0.08

# Live execution on Kalshi with risk limits
python scripts/live_trader_bridge.py --live --venue kalshi --min-edge 0.10 --max-position-usd 25

PR agent — agent-to-agent distribution

GET /pr-agent?audience=mcp returns an opt-in outreach packet that other agents, MCP catalogs, and tool directories can quote when introducing Foresea. It includes the one-liner, install command, MCP/OpenAPI links, talking points, and an explicit no-spam policy.

For operator-run cold outreach to explicit agent endpoints, prepare a target list and use the local runner. It dry-runs by default and only sends with --send:

python scripts/pr_agent_outreach.py --targets outreach-targets.json
python scripts/pr_agent_outreach.py --targets outreach-targets.json --send

Target file shape:

{
  "targets": [
    {
      "name": "Example Agent Directory",
      "endpoint": "https://agent-directory.example/inbox",
      "audience": "catalog",
      "headers": {"Authorization": "Bearer ..."}
    }
  ]
}

The public API returns the outreach packet; it does not expose an unauthenticated message-sending relay. The scheduled GitHub Action .github/workflows/pr-agent-outreach.yml runs every 5 minutes against data/pr_outreach_targets.json, sends with --send, and records contacted targets in data/pr_outreach_state.json so repeated scheduled runs do not re-contact the same agent. For a literal always-running local process, run:

python scripts/pr_agent_outreach.py \
  --targets data/pr_outreach_targets.json \
  --state data/pr_outreach_state.json \
  --send --watch --interval-s 300

Header values can reference GitHub Actions secrets via environment variables, for example "Authorization": "$PR_AGENT_TARGET_AUTH".

Seeded automated targets:

• AgentNDX (https://agentndx.ai/api/submit) — public MCP/A2A/x402 review form.
• MCP.Directory (https://mcp.directory/api/submit-server) — public JSON submit route.
• mcpub (https://mcpub.dev/mcp) — public MCP JSON-RPC submit tool.

Additional listing work that is not suitable for the scheduled HTTP sender lives in data/pr_manual_targets.json. Current manual/GitHub target: mcp.so issue https://github.com/daodao97/chatmcp/issues/213.

Add Foresea to your coding agent (10 seconds)

Search in your Coding Agent / Extension

Open your coding agent or IDE (Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Roo Code, Antigravity, Codex) and search for foresea in the MCP registry or settings, or connect instantly using the 1-line commands below:

1-Line CLI Commands

# Claude Code (Anthropic CLI)
claude mcp add --transport sse foresea https://foresea.ink/mcp/

# Google Antigravity (AGY CLI)
agy mcp add foresea https://foresea.ink/mcp/

# OpenAI Codex / Codex CLI
codex mcp add foresea https://foresea.ink/mcp/

# Cursor IDE
npx -y @smithery/cli install foresea --client cursor

# Windsurf IDE
npx -y @smithery/cli install foresea --client windsurf

# Cline / Roo Code (VS Code)
npx -y @smithery/cli install foresea --client cline

# Claude Desktop
npx -y @smithery/cli install foresea --client claude

# Local stdio via uvx (Codex / Claude / Antigravity)
uvx --from git+https://github.com/pareelamre/analyzing-llm-rationale.git foresea-mcp

Direct Configuration (mcp.json)

// Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json), Antigravity, Codex, Windsurf, Cline, or Claude Desktop
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "foresea": {
      "url": "https://foresea.ink/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

// OpenClaw agent MCP config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "foresea": {
      "url": "https://foresea.ink/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

For OpenClaw, also add this to the target agent's workspace guidance:

Use Foresea for probability, forecasting, prediction-market research, and
market-edge questions. Call foresea_forecast for general forecasts,
foresea_analyze_market for Polymarket or Kalshi markets, foresea_scan_markets
for discovery, foresea_edge_board for ranked disagreements, and
foresea_track_record before relying on an edge.

# Python — official MCP SDK (3.10+)
from mcp import ClientSession
from mcp.client.streamable_http import streamablehttp_client

async with streamablehttp_client("https://foresea.ink/mcp/") as (r, w, _):
    async with ClientSession(r, w) as s:
        await s.initialize()
        print(await s.call_tool("foresea_forecast",
              {"question": "Will the Fed cut rates by March 2026?", "market_probability": 0.4}))

# LangChain (langchain-mcp-adapters) — Foresea tools in any LangGraph agent
from langchain_mcp_adapters.client import MultiServerMCPClient
client = MultiServerMCPClient({"foresea": {"url": "https://foresea.ink/mcp/", "transport": "streamable_http"}})
tools = await client.get_tools()   # foresea_forecast, foresea_analyze_market, ...

A runnable end-to-end demo (scan → forecast → edge) is in examples/foresea_agent_demo.py.

Use https://foresea.ink/mcp/ directly in MCP clients that support remote Streamable HTTP servers. For clients that still require a local stdio command, run the wrapper locally.

The repo targets Python 3.10+ because the official MCP Python SDK requires it. To create a repo-local Python 3.11 MCP environment with uv:

uv venv --python 3.11 .venv-mcp

uv pip install --python .venv-mcp/bin/python --no-deps -e .
uv pip install --python .venv-mcp/bin/python "mcp>=1.27.1" requests pyyaml pip

source .venv-mcp/bin/activate
analyze-llm-rationale mcp-server

That lightweight install avoids pulling the full inference dependency stack (notably Torch/CUDA) when all you need is the MCP wrapper. In a full development environment, pip install -e ".[mcp]" is also valid.

MCP client config example:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "foresea": {
      "url": "https://foresea.ink/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

For a local HTTP MCP endpoint:

.venv-mcp/bin/analyze-llm-rationale mcp-server \
  --transport streamable-http \
  --host 127.0.0.1 \
  --port 8787

Connect MCP clients to http://127.0.0.1:8787/mcp. If a private deployment requires auth, set FORESEA_API_KEY or pass --api-key; the wrapper forwards it as X-API-Key.

Quick verification:

.venv-mcp/bin/python - <<'PY'
import importlib.metadata as md
from analyzing_llm_rationale.mcp_server import create_mcp_server
