Connects Claude to Kraken's public market data API without requiring authentication. You get access to real-time and historical cryptocurrency data including server time, system status, asset info, trading pairs, ticker prices, OHLC candles, order book depth, and recent trades. Part of the Pipeworx gateway, which means you can either connect to just Kraken or tap into their full network of 250+ data sources through a single endpoint. Includes an ask_pipeworx tool that lets you query market data in plain English instead of calling specific API methods. Useful when you need crypto market intelligence in your Claude workflows without managing API keys or rate limits.
Kraken MCP — keyless public market endpoints.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1476+ live data sources.

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/kraken/mcp returns the tools in the table
above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx,
discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the
gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a
single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the
pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and
is the authoritative answer for a given day.
This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a
scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via
ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a
second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without
them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth,
connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1476+ data sources. The
only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx
reaches all of them from either one.
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Kraken data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
