Shumi MCP Server

Crypto research for MCP clients — prices, funding rates, narratives, regime.

About

Shumi is crypto market intelligence for developers and agents. It exposes read-only MCP tools for prices, trends, funding rates, sentiment, narratives, market regime, pair/delta-neutral research, and real-world assets (Hyperliquid builder DEXes).

Install via npx (@shumi-ai/mcp) or connect to the hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint. Requires a Shumi API key (shumi_sk_*) from https://shumi.ai. Free tier + paid plans; gating is server-side.

For Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, and any MCP client that needs live crypto research data instead of guessing.

From the project's GitHub README.

Shumi crypto trade-intelligence as an MCP server — the same market intelligence the shumi CLI provides, for any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, agents).

It's a thin wrapper over Shumi's data API: prices, trends, funding rates, sentiment, narratives, market regime, synthesized signals, pair / delta-neutral ideas, real-world assets, holder and wallet tracking, and transcript highlights. All tools are read-only.

Quick start

You need a Shumi API key (shumi_sk_…). Create one at https://shumi.ai.

Claude Desktop / Claude Code

Add to your MCP config (claude_desktop_config.json, or claude mcp add for Claude Code):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shumi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@shumi-ai/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SHUMI_TOKEN": "shumi_sk_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart the client. The shumi tools (e.g. get_coin_risk, get_market_health, ask_shumi) appear automatically.

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json uses the same command / args / env shape as above.

Plugin directories

This repo also ships plugin.json and mcp.json at its root, so it installs as an Agent Plugin from Cursor's directory and any other client on that standard.

Set SHUMI_TOKEN in your environment before starting the client when you install this way. The Agent Plugins schema takes literal environment values only — it has no placeholder for a secret — so the manifest deliberately omits env rather than shipping a ${SHUMI_TOKEN} string that would be passed through verbatim and fail as an invalid key.

Tools

Typed (deterministic): get_coin_risk, lookup_coin, resolve_coin, get_coin_sentiment, get_coin_historical, get_market_health, get_market_crossing, get_global_market, get_prices, scan_trends, scan_coins, get_market_sentiment, list_narratives, get_narrative, list_categories, get_category, get_funding_momentum, get_funding_alerts, get_regime, get_signal, get_signal_quality, get_pair_suggestions, list_rwa_assets, get_rwa_asset, get_holders, get_wallets, get_futures_signals, get_basket, get_transcripts.

Real-world assets (list_rwa_assets, get_rwa_asset) cover stocks, ETFs, commodities, indices and FX trading as perps on Hyperliquid builder DEXes. They are not crypto tokens — the coin tools will not find them.

Free-form: ask_shumi (natural-language questions — Shumi classifies, fetches, and synthesizes) and search_web.

List-returning tools accept top (keep first N items) and fields (comma-separated keys to keep) to save tokens.

Resources: shumi://capabilities (the data surface) and shumi://billing/tier (your current entitlement).

Configuration

Env varDefaultPurpose
SHUMI_TOKENAPI key (shumi_sk_*). Required.
SHUMI_API_URLproduction coinrotator-ai endpointOverride the API base URL.
SHUMI_WALLETWallet address to include in NLP query context.

Gating (free / access / pro tiers and pay-per-call) is enforced server-side, exactly as for the CLI — out-of-quota responses come back as a structured error with an actionable hint.

Remote (Streamable HTTP)

For a hosted, multi-user deployment, run the Streamable HTTP transport (MCP 2025-11-25):

PORT=8787 SHUMI_MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS=https://yourapp.com npm run start:http

Each request authenticates with its own Authorization: Bearer shumi_sk_* header; that token is forwarded to the upstream API per request. Endpoint: POST/GET/DELETE /mcp, health: GET /health.

Develop

npm install
npm test                # unit tests (no network)
npm run inspect         # open the MCP Inspector against the stdio server
SHUMI_TOKEN=… npm start # run the stdio server

Deliberately not exposed

Two CLI routes have no MCP tool, both on purpose:

  • walkforward — the route exists, but two of its three actions have nothing behind them while Engine B is paused: positions is empty and outcomes holds a single row from 2026-05-28. Shipping it would hand a caller an empty array with no reason attached. It goes in when the engine resumes.
  • watch — server-sent events, which do not fit MCP tool semantics.

Everything else in the CLI's typed surface has a tool.
