# Funding Rates MCP
An MCP server that provides real-time funding rate data across major crypto exchanges, enabling agents to detect arbitrage opportunities.

## Features
- **Real-Time Funding Rates**: Fetches current funding across Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget, Gate and CoinEx.
- **Pivoted Table Output**: Displays symbols as rows, exchanges as columns, and includes a `Divergence` column for max funding rate difference.
- **Claude Desktop Integration**: Runs as an MCP server for interactive queries.
## Installation
### Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+
- [uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) for dependency management
- [Claude Desktop](https://www.anthropic.com/claude) (optional, for interactive queries)
- Git
### Steps
1. **Clone the Repository**:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/kukapay/funding-rates-mcp.git
cd funding-rates-mcp
```
2. **Set Up Dependencies with uv**:
```bash
uv sync
```
3. **Configuring Claude Desktop**:
To use with Claude Desktop:
1. Edit the Claude configuration file:
- **macOS**: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
- **Windows**: `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`
2. Add the MCP server:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"funding-rates-mcp": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["--directory", "/absolute/path/to/funding-rates-mcp", "run", "funding-rates-mcp"]
}
}
}
```
3. Restart Claude Desktop. Look for the hammer icon to confirm integration.
## Usage
### Tools
The server provides the following MCP tool for querying funding rates:
- **`compare_funding_rates`**:
- **Description**: Compares current funding rates for multiple symbols across specified exchanges, returning a pivoted Markdown table with a `Divergence` column showing the maximum funding rate difference for each symbol.
- **Parameters**:
- `symbols` (List[str]): List of trading pairs (e.g., `["BTC/USDT:USDT", "ETH/USDT:USDT"]`). Required.
- `exchanges` (List[str], optional): List of exchanges to compare (e.g., `["binance", "okx"]`). Defaults to all supported exchanges (`binance`, `okx`, `bybit`, `bitget`, `gate`, `coinex`).
- `params` (Dict, optional): Additional parameters for the API call. Defaults to `{}`.
- **Returns**: A Markdown table with symbols as rows, exchanges as columns, funding rates as values (formatted as percentages), and a `Divergence` column.
- **Example**: See the Examples section below.
### Prompts
The server includes the following MCP prompt for generating natural language queries:
- **`compare_funding_rates_prompt`**:
- **Description**: Generates a natural language prompt for comparing funding rates across all supported exchanges, suitable for Claude Desktop input.
- **Parameters**:
- `symbols` (List[str]): List of trading pairs (e.g., `["BTC/USDT:USDT", "ETH/USDT:USDT"]`). Required.
- **Returns**: A string prompt (e.g., "Compare the funding rates for BTC/USDT:USDT, ETH/USDT:USDT across binance, okx, bybit, bitget, gate, coinex.").
- **Usage**: Used internally by Claude Desktop to interpret user queries or for testing in MCP Inspector.
### Examples
#### Compare Funding Rates
- **Input** (in Claude Desktop):
"Compare funding rates for BTC/USDT:USDT and ETH/USDT:USDT across all exchanges."
- **Output**:
```
Current funding rates:
| Symbol\Exchange | binance | okx | bybit | bitget | gate | coinex | Divergence |
|-----------------|-----------|-----------|-----------|-----------|-----------|-----------|------------|
| BTC/USDT:USDT | 0.005161% | 0.007548% | 0.010000% | 0.002900% | -0.019200% | -0.035013% | 0.045013% |
| ETH/USDT:USDT | 0.010000% | 0.005839% | 0.010000% | 0.010000% | -0.008200% | 0.000000% | 0.018200% |
```
#### Compare Specific Exchanges
- **Input** (in Claude Desktop):
"Compare funding rates for SOL/USDT:USDT on Binance, OKX, and Bybit."
- **Output**:
```
Current funding rates:
| Symbol\Exchange | binance | okx | bybit | Divergence |
|-----------------|-----------|-----------|-----------|------------|
| SOL/USDT:USDT | -0.015312% | -0.003639% | -0.004467% | 0.011673% |
