## Overview

AlgoVault is an MCP-native API that returns **one composite trading verdict per call** instead of 26 raw indicators. Buyers are AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, OpenClaw, GetClaw, custom builds). The product fuses RSI(14), EMA(9/21) crossover, funding rate, OI momentum, volume + cross-venue regime classification into a single JSON response per call:

```json
{
  "call": "BUY|SELL|HOLD",
  "confidence": 0-100,
  "regime": "TRENDING_UP|TRENDING_DOWN|RANGING|VOLATILE",
  "indicators": { "funding_rate": "...", "funding_state": "NORMAL|ELEVATED|EXTREME", "trend_persistence": "LOW|MEDIUM|HIGH", "breakout_pending": "INACTIVE|IMMINENT" },
  "_algovault": { "tool": "get_trade_call", "version": "1.10.0" }
}
```

Every signal is **hashed on-chain (Base L2) before its outcome is known**. Daily Merkle batches anchor the day's signals to the public `MerkleRootRegistry` contract at `0x6485396ac981fe0a58540dfbf3e730f6f7bcbf81`. Anyone can verify any past signal against the on-chain root via `algovault.com/verify`. This is the moat: verifiable accuracy, not a marketing claim.

| Metric | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Total signals tracked | 56,375+ | /api/performance-public#totalSignals |
| Total evaluated (PFE eval window passed) | 55,935+ | /api/performance-public#overall.totalEvaluated |
| Overall PFE Win Rate | 89.4% | /api/performance-public#overall.pfeWinRate |
| BUY signal PFE WR | 90.6% | /api/performance-public#bySignalType.BUY.pfeWinRate |
| SELL signal PFE WR | 88.5% | /api/performance-public#bySignalType.SELL.pfeWinRate |
| HOLD calls | always free | per pricing policy |
| Merkle batches anchored | 16+ | /api/merkle-batches |
| Latest batch published | 2026-04-26T00:05:04Z | /api/merkle-batches#batches[0].published_at |

**By timeframe (PFE WR):** 5m=91.1%, 15m=92.5%, 30m=90.3%, 1h=89.0%, 2h=85.3%, 4h=86.1%, 8h=80.3%, 12h=84.1%, 1d=53.5%.

**Methodology:** PFE = Peak Favourable Excursion. Each signal is evaluated at a timeframe-appropriate horizon (5m=1hr, 1h=8hr, 4h=24hr) for whether the price moved >X bps in the predicted direction at any point during the window. Confidence floor of 60% applies to all tracked signals.

## The 3 MCP Tools

### 1. `get_trade_call`

**Input:**
- `coin` (string, required): Asset symbol (e.g. `"BTC"`, `"ETH"`, `"SOL"`)
- `timeframe` (enum): `"1m"`, `"3m"`, `"5m"`, `"15m"`, `"30m"`, `"1h"`, `"2h"`, `"4h"`, `"8h"`, `"12h"`, `"1d"`. Default `"15m"`.
- `exchange` (enum): `"BINANCE"` (Binance USDT-M Futures, default), `"HL"` (Hyperliquid), `"BYBIT"`, `"OKX"`, `"BITGET"`.
- `includeReasoning` (bool, default true): Include human-readable reasoning.

**Output:** Composite verdict per JSON shape above.

### 2. `scan_funding_arb`

**Input:**
- `minSpreadBps` (number, default 10): Minimum annualised funding spread in basis points.
- `limit` (number, default 5): Top-N opportunities by spread.

**Output:** Ranked list of `{coin, longVenue, shortVenue, spreadBps, annualisedReturn}` rows.

### 3. `get_market_regime`

**Input:**
- `coin` (string, required)
- `timeframe` (string, default `"4h"`)
- `exchange` (enum, default `"HL"`)

**Output:** Regime classification (TRENDING_UP / TRENDING_DOWN / RANGING / VOLATILE) + confidence + underlying metrics + cross-venue funding sentiment + plain-English strategy suggestion.

## 4 Pricing Tiers

| Tier | Price | Coverage | Calls/month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | All assets, all 11 timeframes (1m–1d), top-5 funding-arb | 100 |
| Starter | $9.99/mo | All crypto + TradFi assets, all 11 timeframes | 3,000 |
| Pro | $49/mo | All crypto + TradFi assets, all 11 timeframes | 15,000 |
| Enterprise | $299/mo | Unlimited calls + SLA + priority support | Unlimited |

**Track-record coverage:** the public dashboard shows 10 of 11 timeframes (3m + 5m–1d). The 3m row joined the public track record on 2026-05-19 after clearing the shadow-mode decision gates (PFE Win Rate 92.42% across 3,959 evaluated samples; gates ≥85% and ≥3,000). The 1m timeframe stays API-on-demand while its sample density accrues. Calls for 1m work fine; they just don't yet appear in the rolling-window PFE breakdown.

**~98% HOLD rate. We only fire when we mean it.** Most signal tools always emit a verdict. AlgoVault rejects ~98% of scans as HOLD — and HOLDs are **always free** at every tier. That selectivity is why the rest have 89.4%+ Merkle-verified accuracy. (Live `hold_rate` at https://algovault.com/api/performance-public; snapshot 2026-04-27.)

## All 20 Skills (catalog at /skills)

Each Skill is a single-prompt wrapper over 1–3 AlgoVault MCP tool calls. Difficulty: Beginner (1) → Intermediate (3) → Advanced (14) → Research (1) → Expert (1).

<!-- BUILD:LLMS_FULL_SKILLS -->
01. **Quick BTC Check** (Beginner): The simplest possible call. Ask your agent for a single trade call.
02. **Portfolio Scanner** (Intermediate): Loop through the top 10 assets, get trade calls for each, and filter by high confidence.
03. **Regime-Aware Trading** (Intermediate): Check the market regime first. Only request trade calls when the regime is favorable for directional trading.
04. **Funding Arb Monitor** (Intermediate): Scan for cross-venue funding rate arbitrage opportunities. Alert when the annualized spread exceeds your threshold.
05. **Full 3-Tool Pipeline** (Advanced): The complete AlgoVault workflow: regime detection, trade call, then arb check for the same asset. Maximum context for one decision.
06. **Multi-Timeframe Confirmation** (Advanced): Get trade calls on multiple timeframes for the same asset. Only act when all timeframes agree on direction.
07. **TradFi Rotation** (Advanced): Compare regime and direction across TradFi perpetuals. Rotate into the asset with the strongest trend.
08. **Risk-Gated Entry** (Advanced): Only enter trades when both confidence and regime alignment pass your risk filters. Skip everything else.
09. **Funding Sentiment Dashboard** (Advanced): Get market regime for major assets and use the cross-venue funding sentiment to gauge overall market bias.
10. **Contrarian Meme Scanner** (Advanced): Scan lower-tier assets for contrarian setups: high-confidence SELL calls during an uptrend may signal crowded longs about to unwind.
11. **Divergence Detector** (Advanced): Compare trade call direction vs market regime. When they disagree, flag it as a high-risk divergence.
12. **Hourly Digest Bot** (Advanced): Build an automated digest: scan all tier-1 and tier-2 assets every hour, summarize trade calls and market regime into a brief report.
13. **Hedging Advisor** (Advanced): You hold a long ETH position. Check regime and trade call — if both turn bearish, look for a funding arb to hedge via the cheaper venue.
14. **Volatility Breakout Watch** (Advanced): Use regime detection as a screener: find assets in VOLATILE regime with high confidence — these are breakout candidates. Then get trade call for direction.
15. **Cross-Asset Correlation** (Advanced): Get trade calls for BTC, ETH, SOL simultaneously. If all say SELL, it's a macro risk-off signal, not just one asset.
16. **Funding Cash-and-Carry** (Advanced): Find a funding arb spread, then get a trade call on the long side. If the trade call agrees with the long direction, you have double conviction.
17. **Weekend vs Weekday Patterns** (Research): Schedule trade calls every 4 hours, log results over time. Compare weekend vs weekday regime patterns to find exploitable edges.
18. **Agent Portfolio Rebalance** (Advanced): Daily regime check for each asset in your portfolio. Shift allocation toward TRENDING assets, reduce exposure to VOLATILE/RANGING positions.
19. **Smart DCA Bot** (Advanced): Dollar-cost averaging, enhanced: skip buys when the trade call says SELL with high confidence. Only DCA when direction is neutral or favorable.
20. **Multi-Agent War Room** (Expert): Three specialized agents, one coordinator. Agent A: regime, Agent B: trade calls, Agent C: funding arbs. Coordinator synthesizes all three.

## On-Chain Verification (the Merkle moat)

Every signal call is hashed on-chain (Base L2) **before its outcome is known** — preventing any retroactive editing. Daily Merkle batches (00:05 UTC) anchor the day's signals to the public `MerkleRootRegistry` contract.

- **Contract address:** `0x6485396ac981fe0a58540dfbf3e730f6f7bcbf81` (Base L2 / Basescan)
- **Verify any signal:** https://algovault.com/verify
- **Public batches API:** https://algovault.com/api/merkle-batches
- **Public performance API:** https://algovault.com/api/performance-public
- **Latest batch:** batch_id 16, published 2026-04-26T00:05:04Z (snapshot)

What this proves to a sceptical buyer:
1. We can't edit history. The on-chain Merkle root is immutable.
2. We tracked the prediction BEFORE the outcome was known. Hashing happens at signal emission, not at outcome eval.
3. Anyone can verify a single signal independently — paste any signal ID into /verify, get the on-chain proof.
4. Aggregate accuracy claims are bounded by the on-chain commitment count. We can't claim 1M signals if only 56K are anchored.

## FAQ

**Q: Is this investment advice?**
A: No. AlgoVault returns analytics; the agent and its risk policy decide what (if anything) to execute. We're an API for AI agents, not a financial advisor.

**Q: How does pricing work for HOLD calls?**
A: HOLDs are always free, on every tier. Only BUY/SELL signals (the ~7% that pass our 93% rejection rate) count against your monthly quota.

**Q: What's the difference between PFE Win Rate and "outcome win rate"?**
A: PFE (Peak Favourable Excursion) measures whether the price moved in the predicted direction at any point during the evaluation window. It's the canonical public metric. Outcome-based metrics are internal to our quant engine and not exposed.

**Q: Can I run an agent against this in Cursor / Cline / OpenClaw?**
A: Yes — any MCP-compatible client. The Streamable HTTP endpoint is `https://api.algovault.com/mcp`. Or install the Skills plugin for one-line invocations.

**Q: Do I need keys to use the free tier?**
A: No. The free tier is per-IP rate-limited (100 calls/month). Paid tiers issue API keys at signup.

**Q: What exchanges are analysed?**
A: Hyperliquid (primary), Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget. Cross-venue funding spreads + regime alignment are derived across all 5.

**Q: Is the source code open?**
A: The Skills pack (`algovault-skills`) is MIT-licensed and open: https://github.com/AlgoVaultLabs/algovault-skills. The MCP server itself is closed-source but its outputs are fully verifiable on-chain.

**Q: What's the Merkle batch publishing schedule?**
A: Daily at 00:05 UTC. Each batch contains all signals emitted in the preceding 24 hours. Batch IDs increment monotonically.
