Flicker MCP Server: Connect AI Assistants to Real-Time Crypto Data
Give Claude, ChatGPT, and other AI assistants direct access to Flicker's crypto signals, smart money tracking, and market intelligence through the Model Context Protocol.
Flicker now has an MCP server.
If you use AI assistants like Claude or ChatGPT for crypto research, they can now pull live data directly from Flicker โ no copy-pasting, no switching tabs.
What is MCP?
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard created by Anthropic that lets AI assistants connect to external tools and data sources.
Think of it as a universal plug that connects AI models to the real world. Instead of AI assistants being limited to their training data, MCP lets them:
- Access live data โ real-time prices, signals, and market movements
- Call external tools โ execute queries and retrieve specific information
- Stay current โ no more "my knowledge cutoff is..." limitations for connected data
Major AI providers including OpenAI and Google DeepMind have adopted MCP. It's becoming the standard way AI agents interact with external services.
What Flicker MCP Gives You
Connect the Flicker MCP server to your AI assistant and it gains access to:
AI-Powered Signals
Ask your AI assistant about buy/sell signals for any asset. It will fetch Flicker's real-time recommendations with confidence scores.
Smart Money Tracking
Query whale movements and institutional flows. Your AI can analyze what smart money is doing right now, not weeks ago.
Market Intelligence
Get breakout alerts, sentiment data, and technical analysis. Your AI assistant becomes a crypto research analyst with live data.
Portfolio Context
If you've connected your exchanges to Flicker, your AI can reference your actual positions when giving advice.
Example Conversations
Once connected, you can have conversations like:
"What are Flicker's current signals for ETH?"
"Show me the top 5 assets with bullish signals right now."
"Is smart money accumulating or selling BTC this week?"
"Based on Flicker's data, what breakouts are forming?"
"Analyze my portfolio and tell me which positions have negative signals."
Your AI assistant fetches live Flicker data to answer โ not hallucinated information from training data.
Why This Matters
AI assistants are powerful for analysis and research. But they have a fundamental limitation: they don't know what's happening right now.
Ask ChatGPT about Bitcoin's price and it'll tell you its knowledge is outdated. Ask Claude about current market sentiment and it can only speculate.
MCP fixes this. Your AI assistant becomes a live research tool with access to:
- Real-time market data
- Current trading signals
- Up-to-the-minute smart money flows
- Your actual portfolio
The AI's reasoning capabilities plus Flicker's live data equals a crypto research assistant that actually knows what's happening.
