Kalshi MCP | CLI Trader

Kalshi MCP is an MCP server that connects agents to Kalshi, the CFTC-regulated prediction market exchange. It provides structured tools for browsing available event contracts, checking prices and market depth, and executing trades on real-world event outcomes. This covers categories including economic indicators, political events, weather, and other domains where Kalshi offers contracts.

The server exposes Kalshi’s API through the MCP protocol, allowing agents to search markets, retrieve current pricing and order book data, and place trades. The structured interface is particularly valuable for prediction markets, where agents may need to evaluate many contracts simultaneously, compare implied probabilities across related events, or monitor position exposure across a portfolio of event bets.

Kalshi MCP is designed for prediction market traders who want to bring agent automation to their Kalshi workflows. The ability to programmatically browse and evaluate event contracts through an agent is powerful for identifying opportunities and managing positions at scale. As with any trading integration, implement proper risk controls — including position limits, loss thresholds, and human confirmation for trade placement — before using the execution features with real capital.
