trading_skills vs fastapi_mcp
trading_skills: Trading Skills collapses multiple trading tools into a single conversational interface powered by Claude. It provides real-time market data, technical analysis, options Greeks, risk metrics, and portfolio management for Interactive Brokers users. The project supports both Claude Code/Cursor and MCP server for Claude Desktop.; fastapi_mcp: FastAPI-MCP allows you to expose your existing FastAPI endpoints as Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools. It offers native integration with FastAPI, including built-in authentication using existing dependencies, and preserves schemas and documentation.
TL;DR
Retail options traders who sell premium, run PMCCs, or manage covered calls
- You already have a FastAPI application and want to expose its endpoints as MCP tools while reusing your existing FastAPI authentication dependencies and Swagger schemas.
- You want to mount the MCP server directly onto your ASGI app or deploy it separately under an MIT license.
- You are building a standalone MCP server from scratch rather than wrapping a FastAPI app; use FastMCP or the official MCP Python SDK.
- You need an actively updated repository (last push was November 2025).
