What it does
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI clients use tools from other services. Once you connect QuantPilot, your AI client can:
read the QuantScript v2 documentation
look up supported markets and symbols, and the dates they have data for
validate a strategy and explain each error
run a backtest on the QuantPilot engine
show backtest results, metrics and orders
list your backtests that are not attached to a strategy or a chat
The client acts as you. Backtests run under your QuantPilot account, on the same engine as backtests in the app.
Tools
These are the tools your AI client gets once QuantPilot is connected. Seven of them only read. One, Run a backtest, creates a backtest in your account; a client that asks before a non-read-only action, such as ChatGPT, asks only for that one.
