I Built an MCP Server to Trade Robinhood Through Claude Code
Source: Dev.to

What it does
Instead of using the Robinhood app, I just type:
- “What’s my portfolio worth?”
- “Buy 10 shares of AAPL”
- “Place a limit order for TSLA at $400”
Setup (one command)
claude mcp add --transport http trayd https://mcp.trayd.ai/mcp
Then tell Claude: “Link my Robinhood account”.
How it works
- MCP Server – Runs on AWS ECS, handles OAuth + Robinhood API.
- Clerk Auth – Google sign‑in for user isolation.
- Phone 2FA – Robinhood sends an approval notification.
- In‑memory tokens – Never stored on disk.
Security
- Tokens exist only in memory (wiped on restart).
- Phone approval required to link the account.
- Logout wipes everything instantly.
- Open source – review the code yourself.
