2 minute setup
Quick Start Guide
Get your AI agent trading in 2 minutes with the setup wizard
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ installed
- Exchange API keys (MEXC, Gate.io, Bitget, or Kraken)
Quick Start (4 Steps)
1
Install
Install the OpenMM package globally
Install
npm install -g @qbtlabs/openmm-mcp2
Setup Vault, Wallet & Exchanges
Run the one-time setup wizard to create your encrypted vault
Setup Wizard
openmm-initThe setup wizard will:
- Create an AES-256-GCM encrypted vault
- Generate an on-chain wallet
- Prompt for exchange API credentials (stored in vault)
3
Start the Server
Start the unified MCP server. Run this before launching any AI client.
Start Server
openmm serve✅ Once you see "Ready — waiting for MCP connections..." you're good.
4
Configure Your AI Client
Write the MCP config for your client (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.)
Configure Client
openmm-mcp --setupThis writes only OPENMM_SOCKET to your client config — no credentials leave the vault.
How It Works
One vault, one socket, zero credentials in your AI client.
- •
openmm serveunlocks your vault and opens a local IPC socket - • Your MCP client connects via
OPENMM_SOCKETonly - • Payment signing goes through the socket — private key never leaves the vault process
- • Policy enforcement happens at the socket before the key is touched
See MCP Setup Guide for client-specific instructions, or CLI Reference for all commands.
