Option Desk MCP server

Option Desk is an MCP server with 13 tools an agent can call, among them option_chain_snapshot, option_delete_snapshot, option_desk_status. It answers at https://optiondesk.avidquant.com/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 6 of 6 times since 12 September 2026; the last check, on 24 October 2026, succeeded.

Option analytics over the SYNTH sample or a permitted chain: Greeks, positioning, payoffs, plots.

Description as the publisher wrote it.

The 13 tools Option Desk offers

ToolWhat it does
option_chain_snapshotSummarize SYNTH or analyze a user-supplied option chain for private analysis. This service never fetches market data.
Inputs: symbol, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source, rights_confirmed
option_delete_snapshotDelete one short-lived imported dashboard before its automatic one-hour expiry.
Inputs: token
option_desk_statusCheck the Option Desk data mode, source, refresh time, and public licence gate before requesting figures. No live feed or hosted backtest tool exists, even with uploaded history. Do not offer hosted backtests.
option_import_snapshotImport user-supplied option-chain data into a bearer-private interactive dashboard. Delete the artifacts after one hour.
Inputs: symbol, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source, rights_confirmed
option_plotsRender opaque PNG plots in the conversation. The SYNTH sample offers the market plot (dealer gamma exposure, open interest, volume and the smile by strike), the Greek ladder, and the structure comparison. Each is computed from the sample's
Inputs: symbol, plot, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source
option_plots_from_snapshotCreate opaque market and Greek PNG images from a user-supplied snapshot. Stamp source, capture time, expiry, and warnings on every image. Delete temporary files before the response.
Inputs: symbol, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source, rights_confirmed
option_positioningReturn gamma walls, gamma flip, and max pain from SYNTH or a user-supplied chain. Dealer signs are an assumption, not observed positions.
Inputs: symbol, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source, rights_confirmed
option_private_dashboardCreate a private interactive dashboard from user-supplied data. The bearer URL and all derived artifacts expire after one hour.
Inputs: symbol, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source, rights_confirmed
option_report_plotsReturn the market map, Greek ladder, strategy comparison and up to three requested payoff charts in ONE widget. Prefer this tool for multi-chart reports instead of parallel individual plot calls. Includes strategy_records, Greek units, scen
Inputs: symbol, strategies, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source
option_snapshot_schemaReturn the accepted CSV and JSON option-chain fields, safe repair rules, size limits, data-rights confirmation, and retention policy.
option_strategy_from_snapshotBuild one option structure from a user-supplied chain and return its opaque payoff PNG with permanent source and risk warnings.
Inputs: symbol, strategy, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source
option_strategy_plotShow an option-strategy payoff as an opaque PNG in the conversation. Any structure in the engine playbook can be built on the SYNTH sample chain. A market ticker requires user-supplied chain data. Do not start a localhost dashboard.
Inputs: symbol, strategy, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source
option_validate_snapshotValidate and safely normalize a user-supplied option-chain snapshot. Return corrections and a summary. Delete all temporary files before the response.
Inputs: symbol, source_text, source_data, source_format, data_source, rights_confirmed
