# Polymarket MCP Server **The simplest way to query Polymarket prediction-market data with AI agents.** Built by [Polycool](https://polycoolapp.com) — track & copy top Polymarket traders in one tap. [](https://pypi.org/project/polymarket-mcp/) [](https://www.python.org/) [](LICENSE) --- ## What is this? A lightweight **Model Context Protocol (MCP) server** that gives any AI agent instant access to [Polymarket](https://polymarket.com) prediction-market data — search markets, check probabilities, analyse liquidity, track price history, and more. Built with [FastMCP](https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp) in pure Python. Part of the [Polycool](https://polycoolapp.com) ecosystem. ## Why does this exist? AI agents need **real-time data feeds** to be useful. Prediction markets are one of the best sources of crowd-sourced probability estimates on world events. This project bridges the gap: - **No trading.** Read-only market data. - **No wallets.** No blockchain signing, no private keys. - **No complexity.** Seven tools, zero configuration. Just plug it into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client and start asking questions about the future. --- ## Tools | Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | `search_markets` | Full-text search across all markets (e.g. "Bitcoin", "NBA", "election") | | `trending_markets` | Top markets ranked by 24-hour volume | | `new_markets` | Most recently launched markets | | `markets_closing_soon` | Markets resolving within N hours | | `market_summary` | Detailed probability, volume, liquidity, spread & metadata | | `market_orderbook` | Live orderbook with bids, asks, spread & last trade price | | `market_price_history` | Historical price data with min, max, and % change over any time window | --- ## Quick Install ### Prerequi…
