how it works

Your Claude agent connects to BASTION via MCP. It gets intelligence. It makes decisions. You stay in control.

STEP 01

Your Claude Agent

Add 3 lines of JSON to your Claude Code or Claude Desktop config. Your agent instantly gets access to 147 tools — risk evaluation, market data, whale tracking, derivatives flow, and more.

30 seconds. No SDK. No wrapper.

STEP 02

BASTION Intelligence

Your agent calls BASTION tools via MCP to analyze markets, evaluate positions, track whales, read order flow — all the data a human trader would need, delivered in milliseconds.

560+ signals. 147 tools. Real-time.

STEP 03

Agent Takes Action

Your agent decides what to do based on BASTION intelligence — hold, exit, take profit, reduce size. It uses YOUR exchange API to execute. BASTION never touches your funds.

Your keys. Your agent. Your control.

Copy these prompts directly into Claude Code or Claude Desktop. Your agent knows what to do.

Replace bst_YOUR_KEY with your actual API key from Account → API Keys. Public tools work without a key.

Market Check

No API key needed — instant market data

Use BASTION to give me a full market overview for BTC. Include the current price, 24h change, funding rates, open interest, whale activity, and fear/greed index. Summarize if the market looks bullish or bearish right now.

Risk Evaluation

Requires API key + connected exchange

Use BASTION with my api_key bst_YOUR_KEY to check all my open positions. For each position, run a full risk evaluation. Tell me which ones I should hold, take profit on, or exit. Give me clear reasoning for each.

Whale Intelligence

No API key needed — on-chain + derivatives data

Use BASTION to check whale activity, open interest changes, CVD, funding rate anomalies, and the liquidation heatmap for ETH. Are whales accumulating or distributing? Is there a liquidation cluster nearby that could cause a squeeze?

Research Report

No API key needed — generates institutional-grade report

Use BASTION to generate a comprehensive research report on SOL. Pull market data, derivatives flow (OI, CVD, funding, taker ratio), whale activity, exchange flows, macro signals, and fear/greed. Format it like an institutional research note with a final recommendation.

Pre-Trade Check

No API key needed — validates trade idea with data

I'm thinking about going LONG on BTC at this level with 5x leverage. Use BASTION to check if this is a good idea. Look at the volatility regime, funding rates, OI trend, whale positioning, and liquidation clusters. Give me a go/no-go with your reasoning.

Continuous Monitor

Requires API key — loop-based portfolio guard

Use BASTION with my api_key bst_YOUR_KEY. Every 5 minutes: check all my open positions, run risk evaluation on each one, and alert me immediately if any position gets an EXIT, REDUCE, or TP_PARTIAL recommendation. Keep running until I tell you to stop.

These are just starting points. Your Claude agent can combine any of BASTION's 147 tools creatively.
