npm install nexustrade

Zero runtime dependencies. ESM and CommonJS builds ship together, with types.

MCP server

NexusTrade also exposes the platform as a hosted, remote Model Context Protocol server. Modern MCP clients connect directly to the production Streamable HTTP endpoint and discover NexusTrade OAuth automatically:

claude mcp add --transport http nexustrade https://nexustrade.io/api/mcp

Cursor and other remote-capable clients use:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nexustrade": {
      "url": "https://nexustrade.io/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

For Claude Desktop and other stdio-only clients, use the established mcp-remote bridge—no clone or local NexusTrade server is required:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nexustrade": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote@latest",
        "https://nexustrade.io/api/mcp",
        "--transport",
        "http-only"
      ]
    }
  }
}

The live server exposes more than 120 tools across market research, portfolio construction, backtesting, optimization, walk-forward validation, managed compute, Aurora agents, paper trading, and controlled brokerage operations. Its creator-marketplace tools cover the full strategy adoption path:

• search_creators discovers public creators and their marketplace portfolios.
• subscribe_portfolio validates a monetized listing and returns a safe checkout preview; the user completes payment in NexusTrade, never through the MCP tool.
• fork_shared_portfolio creates a one-time editable copy of a marketplace strategy in a new or existing portfolio.
• copy_trade_shared continuously mirrors an accessible strategy into a paper or live portfolio at an explicit allocation.

See the developer guide, the utility tool reference, and the Aurora tool reference.

Research and historical results are not investment advice and do not guarantee future performance. Keep paper and live modes explicit. Tools that can affect portfolios, schedules, or brokerage orders remain subject to the authenticated account's NexusTrade permissions and approval controls.

Quickstart

import {
  NexusTradeClient,
  always,
  backtest,
  buy,
  portfolio,
  stockAsset,
  strategy,
} from "nexustrade";

const client = new NexusTradeClient({
  apiKey: "sk-...",
  baseUrl: "https://nexustrade.io/api/v1",
});

const book = portfolio("Example", [
  strategy("Buy SPY", always(), buy(stockAsset("SPY"), 100)),
]);

const operation = await client.createBacktest(
  backtest(book, { startDate: "2024-01-01", endDate: "2024-12-31" }),
  { idempotencyKey: "example-v1" }
);
const result = await client.waitForBacktest(operation.id as string);
console.log(result.result);

Backtest operations may include warnings: string[] immediately after submission and again in the terminal result. Treat them as material caveats; they do not change a successful operation into a failure.
