canli-research-mcp / Hosted 0.2.0
Read the papers, failures and paper record
Search Canli Capital's quant research, inspect killed candidates and trial counts, and read the published paper record with its stated evidence limits.
6 tools in the hosted release. MIT source. Hosted and npm versions are distributed separately.
When to use this server
Use this server to inspect the research record behind ALPHAC. Search paper titles and summaries, browse topic indexes, and read a paper or one section without sending the entire library to an assistant. The trial ledger provides search context; the paper record and verification-chain head provide the current published evidence.
Connect the hosted server
Paste this URL into a client that supports MCP over Streamable HTTP:
https://canlicapital.com/mcp/researchFor Claude Code, register the same endpoint:
claude mcp add --transport http canli-research https://canlicapital.com/mcp/researchThe tool list below describes hosted version 0.2.0. The canli-research-mcp npm package can have a different version; check its published version and README before using a local install. The developer setup guide covers clients, API keys and local validation.
A useful first workflow
- Search by a mechanism or browse list_topics. Include feasibility work and killed candidates when checking how a mechanism was investigated.
- Read the returned paper slug with get_paper. Request a section and set max_chars when you need a bounded excerpt; follow the paper's own sources and limitations.
- Check trial_ledger before interpreting a result, then inspect live_record and chain_head. Distinguish current paper observations from mature, funded or independently reviewed performance.
Example tool arguments
Find up to five published papers matching momentum, then read a returned slug with get_paper. Search results reflect this project's research record, not the entire academic literature.

Tools in the hosted release
| Tool | Purpose and input scope |
|---|---|
search_research | Find Canli Capital research papers (strategy tests, killed candidates, literature reviews, feasibility protocols) by words in their titles and summaries. Use it to find a paper's slug, then read it with get_paper; to browse by subject instead, use list_topics. |
list_topics | The research topics, with how many papers each holds and what it covers. |
get_paper | A research paper's text as published, by slug, with its headings; send section for one part, and max_chars to cap the length. Find the slug with search_research or list_topics first. |
trial_ledger | How many distinct hypotheses Canli Capital has tried against its declared budget, and how many were killed or survived. Use it to judge any published result against the size of the search behind it. |
live_record | The live paper-trading record (returns, costs, risk, corrections, provenance) and each sleeve's paper equity, with their limits. Use it for how the strategies are doing now; for why they exist, read the papers. |
chain_head | The head of the tamper-evident chain that shows the published record was not rewritten after publication, with where to verify it. Use it to check that a figure you read was not changed later. |
Evidence limits
The server reads public Canli Capital documents and caches them for the session. A paper can describe a failed, corrected or incomplete investigation. Paper execution does not establish funded results. A tamper-evident publication chain does not establish completeness of the research search or independent review.
