# Kronos by ForgeMesh MCP [![M8ven Verified](https://m8ven.ai/badge/mcp/forgemeshlabs-kronos-forgemesh-mcp-1dod5h?variant=verified)](https://m8ven.ai/mcp/forgemeshlabs-kronos-forgemesh-mcp-1dod5h) [![mcpservers.org](https://mcpservers.org/badge.svg)](https://mcpservers.org/servers/forgemeshlabs/kronos-forgemesh-mcp) An MCP stdio server that lets agents purchase structured Kronos market intelligence from `https://kronos.forgemesh.io` using x402 USDC payments on Base. This is the agent client layer for the third Kronos product origin. ## Build your own Kronos Want to build your own Kronos market-intelligence and paper-trading system instead of calling this one? The **Kronos Field Guide** is the ebook + coding-agent build package we kept being asked for: two learning paths, 81 explained configuration fields, the documented failures of our own paper setup, and two self-contained briefs you hand to Claude Code, Codex or Cursor. https://forgemesh.io/kronos/field-guide — educational only, not financial advice, no support of any kind. ## Tools | Tool | Purpose | Price | | --- | --- | ---: | | `get_kronos_risk` | Risk state, streaks, and cooldown context | $0.02 | | `get_kronos_whale_flows` | Whale, exchange, bridge, and stablecoin flows | $0.02 | | `get_kronos_signals` | Current multi-symbol signal context | $0.05 | | `get_kronos_history` | Up to 168 hours of signal history | $0.05 | | `get_kronos_forecast` | Calibrated 80% range and upside probability | $0.05 | | `check_kronos_preflight` | Conditions check before journaling | $0.05 | | `audit_kronos_decision` | Outcome audit for a prior `decision_id` | $0.07 | | `create_kronos_decision` | Auditable market-intelligence journal | $0.15 | | `get_kronos_perp_funding` | **Futures.** Live perp funding, mark/index, open interest, crowding (Kraken Futures + Hyperliquid) | $0.02 | | `check_kronos_futures_risk` | **Futures.** Will this side / leverage / entry survive the calibrated range? Liquidation distance + verdict | $0.05 | | `get_kronos_futures_decision` | **Futures.** LONG / SHORT / FLAT with stop and target on the calibrated range, leverage cap, liquidation price, sizing, funding cost | $0.15 | ### Kronos Futures (new in 0.2.0) The three futures tools turn a bearish Kronos signal into a sized short instead of "stay out". Direction comes from the same spot signal; stop and target sit on the conformally calibrated 80% range; leverage is capped so liquidation stays outside twice the stop distance and never exceeds the Kronos risk state (NORMAL 3x, ELEVATED 2x, HIGH 1x, absolute 5x). Funding is read live from Kraken Futures and Hyperliquid. No exchange execution ever happens; the output is market intelligence, not a trade instruction. Leverage multiplies losses and adds liquidation risk. ## Install ```bash npx -y @forgemeshlabs/kronos-forgemesh-mcp ``` The private key stays local and is used only to sign x402 payment authorizations. Use a dedicated low-balance Base wallet; never use a primary wallet. The server allowlists `https://kronos.forgemesh.io` as its only production API origin. ## Requirements Node.js 20+ and a dedicated, low-balance Base wallet funded with USDC (`WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY`). The server refuses to sign for any payee other than the Kronos wallet, any network other than Base mainnet, any asset other than USDC, or any amount over the cap ($0.15 per call, $10 per session). The env vars `X402_MAX_PRICE_USD` and `X402_SESSION_BUDGET_USD` can only lower those caps. Requests are same-origin, time out after 60 seconds, are capped at 2 MB, and never follow redirects. ## Claude Code / Desktop ```json { "mcpServers": { "kronos": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@forgemeshlabs/kronos-forgemesh-mcp"], "env": { "WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY": "0x" } } } } ``` No payment occurs when the server starts or lists its tools. Payment happens only when an agent invokes one of the eleven tools. Errors are returned as structured `KRONOS_TOOL_ERROR` payloads so the calling agent can recover without reading server logs. Market intelligence only. Outputs are not instructions to transact. Source: https://github.com/forgemeshlabs/kronos-forgemesh-mcp
