A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides read-only access to Bybit's cryptocurrency exchange API.

THIS IS ALPHA QUALITY SOFTWARE - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Only ever use a read-only API key with this server. I wouldn't trust my code with your "money" and neither should you!

This MCP server provides the following tools for interacting with Bybit's API:

• get_ticker: Get real-time ticker information for a trading pair
• get_orderbook: Get orderbook (market depth) data for a trading pair
• get_kline: Get kline/candlestick data for a trading pair
• get_market_info: Get detailed market information for trading pairs
• get_trades: Get recent trades for a trading pair
• get_instrument_info: Get detailed instrument information for a specific trading pair
• get_wallet_balance: Get wallet balance information for the authenticated user
• get_positions: Get current positions information for the authenticated user
• get_order_history: Get order history for the authenticated user

1. Node.js (v20+)
2. pnpm (npm i -g pnpm)
3. If you want to run the Ollama client as shown in the quick start below, you'll need Ollama installed and running, as well as your model of choice.

pnpm i

To install packages build everything and start the interactive client:

pnpm i

Copy the .env.example file to .env and fill in your details.

cp .env.example .env
code .env

pnpm serve

Install required client packages:

(cd client && pnpm i)

Copy the client .env.example file to .env and fill in your details.

cp client/.env.example client/.env
code client/.env

Then to start the client and server in one command:

pnpm start

The server requires Bybit API credentials to be set as environment variables:

• BYBIT_API_KEY: Your Bybit API key (required)
• BYBIT_API_SECRET: Your Bybit API secret (required) - IMPORTANT - Only ever create a read-only API key!
• BYBIT_USE_TESTNET: Set to "true" to use testnet instead of mainnet (optional, defaults to false)
• DEBUG: Set to "true" to enable debug logging (optional, defaults to false)

Client environment variables (./client/.env):

• OLLAMA_HOST: The host of the Ollama server (defaults to http://localhost:11434)
• DEFAULT_MODEL: The default model to use for chat (defaults to llama-3.2-11b-instruct:Q8_0)

To use this server with MCP clients, you need to add it to your MCP settings configuration file. The file location depends on your client:

      BYBIT_API_KEY: ""      # Add your Bybit API **READ ONLY** key here

      BYBIT_USE_TESTNET: "true"  # Set to false for production
      DEBUG: "false"         # Optional: Set to true for debug logging

This package includes a TypeScript client that provides a command-line interface for interacting with both Ollama LLMs and the bybit-mcp server. The client supports:

• Interactive chat with Ollama models
• Direct access to all bybit-mcp trading tools
• Automatic server management
• Environment-based configuration
• Debug logging

For detailed client documentation, see the client README.

1. Build the server:

pnpm build

2. Run the server:

node build/index.js

For development with automatic TypeScript recompilation:

pnpm watch

To inspect the MCP server during development:
