What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 10, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • ping

    Liveness check for the OptionsBell MCP server. No API key required.

  • get_dataset_stats

    Discover what data is available before querying: date ranges, contract counts, symbol counts and sector coverage for the unusual-activity dataset and its daily aggregates. Call this first when unsure about available history.

  • get_unusual_activity

    Contract-level unusual options activity scan across 7,000+ US stocks (the dataset behind OptionsBell alerts). Filter by symbols, side and thresholds: Vol/OI ratio, premium (USD), IV, days-to-expiration, volume, open interest. Rows include strike, expiry, volume, open interest, IV

  • get_symbol_flow

    Every unusual contract on a single ticker, ranked by score (Vol/OI weighted by premium). Use when the question is about one specific stock's unusual options flow.

  • get_top_prints

    The day's biggest options bets ranked by estimated premium - the same view OptionsBell alert emails lead with. Perfect for 'what were the largest options trades today?'

  • get_flow_history

    End-of-day series of one symbol's UNUSUAL options flow (aggregated from the contracts that passed the unusual filter - not the full tape): daily call/put volume, premium, C/P ratios, average IV, net delta and the consecutive-day streak. ~75 trading days - the series behind back-t

  • get_flow_streaks

    Symbols with unusual options activity on N+ consecutive trading days, with the dominant side (call/put). Persistent unusual flow is a stronger signal than a single print - use for 'where does money keep showing up?'

  • get_expiry_concentration

    Where the day's unusual premium sits along the expiry axis, in DTE buckets (0-7, 8-30, 31-90, 90+) with call/put splits. Heavy short-dated premium reads as event bets; heavy long-dated as positioning.

  • get_flow_sentiment

    Bullish/bearish classification of each symbol's unusual flow with a 0-9 strength score, based on call/put volumes, premium and net delta. Pass a symbol for that ticker's sentiment time series (date_from, date_to, limit apply); omit it for the cross-market snapshot (filterable by

  • get_iv_rank

    IV rank and IV percentile per symbol against its rolling history (needs 20+ days). Pass a symbol for its IV-rank time series (lookback_days, limit apply); omit it for a ranked snapshot (e.g. side=put&min_rank=0.8 finds elevated put IV; side=both ranks by the higher of call/put IV

  • get_oi_changes

    Day-over-day open-interest change per symbol (total, calls, puts) - fresh positioning being built or unwound. Pass a symbol for its OI-change series (date_from, date_to, limit apply); omit it for market-wide gainers/losers.

  • get_sector_flow

    Which sectors the day's unusual options premium is concentrating in: total premium, volume, average net delta and bullish/bearish symbol counts per sector label (11 GICS sectors plus Diversified, Unknown and Unclassified; only labels with activity, at most 14 rows).

  • get_market_regime

    Market-wide breadth of unusual flow per trading day: breadth score 0-100, aggregate call/put ratio, regime label (bullish/bearish/mixed) and signal counts. Use for 'what's the overall tone of the unusual-flow tape?'

Common questions

Is OptionsBell Options Flow safe?

It passed 4 of 4 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 4 months ago, and the latest version (2.0.0) reached the registry 4 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT on the web (full MCP on Business and above; Pro read-only).

What can I use instead?

OptionsBell MCP Server

Ask Claude (or any MCP client) about unusual options activity on 7,000+ US-listed stocks. The whole US options tape is rescanned every 5 minutes; this server exposes the unusual prints and the analytics derived from them.

This repository hosts the registry manifest and documentation for the

hosted (remote) server. The server itself runs at optionsbell.com.

What you can ask

  • "What unusual put buying hit TSLA today?"
  • "Where has unusual flow shown up for 10+ consecutive days?"
  • "Which sectors is premium concentrating in this week?"
  • "Show me stocks with put IV rank above 0.8 - and pull the biggest prints on each."

Authentication (BYOK)

Connect with your own OptionsBell API key - generated at optionsbell.com/settings (active subscription required):

  • X-API-Key: sms_... header, or Authorization: Bearer sms_...
  • Recommended: a personal connector URL (https://optionsbell.com/u/mct_xxx/mcp) generated in Settings - named, revocable, no key handling in client configs.

Anonymous connections can list tools; calls return a friendly hint. Tool calls count 1:1 against your API rate limits (Pro: 30/min, 2,000/day).

Quick connect

Data notes

  • Coverage is unusual activity only - contracts that passed the unusual filter, not the full options tape. Derived analytics are aggregated from those prints (~75 trading days of history).
  • Premium values are estimates (last_price × volume × 100).
  • Market data, not investment advice.
