Install

How do I install the CurrencyGuard Guard Pricing MCP server?

CurrencyGuard Guard Pricing is a hosted endpoint at https://api.currencyguard.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
explain_guard_product ~58

Explain the Guard product using CurrencyGuard's approved product and FAQ content. Covers: what the Guard is, how it works, who it is for, how it compares to forwards or options, and legal, regulatory, accounting, or eligibility questions.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_forward_rate ~215

Get an indicative forward FX rate for a currency pair at a specific tenor. Rates are derived from interest rate differentials, rounded, and for illustration purposes only — not for execution. Returns: forwardRate (indicative mid outright = spot + forward points), forwardPoints (in pips, e.g. -3.1 means the forward rate is 3.1 pips below spot), spotMid (indicative spot mid rate for comparison), settlementDate (the resolved business date for the tenor). Negative forward points mean the forward rate is below spot; positive means above. Example: base=GBP, quote=USD, tenor=3M returns the 3-month GBPUSD indicative forward rate.

NameTypeReqDescription
basestringyesBase currency ISO code, e.g. GBP
quotestringyesQuote currency ISO code, e.g. USD
tenorstringyesTenor period, e.g. 1W, 1M, 3M, 6M, 1Y

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_historic_best_worst ~310

Analyze historic best/worst FX performance for a currency pair over a Guard's duration. Uses Bank of England historic rates. Returns a 'performances' array with 6 entries — BEST and WORST for each of three lookback periods (5, 10, 25 years). Each entry contains: type, lookbackYears, startDate/endDate, startRate/endRate, performancePercentage, startAmount, finalAmount, deltaAmount. For Guard-Pay: negative delta = cost decreased = BEST; positive delta = cost increased = WORST. For Guard-Receive: positive delta = receipt increased = BEST; negative delta = receipt decreased = WORST. Parameters must match the values used in the preceding price_guard call, including payReceive (PAY or RECEIVE).

NameTypeReqDescription
foreignAmountnumberyesAmount in foreign currency — MUST match foreignAmount from price_guard
foreignCurrencystringyesForeign currency ISO code — MUST match foreignCurrency from price_guard
guardAmountnumberyesGuard amount in base/home currency from the Guard quote (the guardAmount field from the price_guard response)
guardCurrencystringyesHome/base currency ISO code — MUST match guardCurrency from price_guard
payReceivestringyesMUST be the exact same payReceive value you used in price_guard (PAY or RECEIVE). Do NOT change it.
settlementDatestringyesSettlement date in ISO format YYYY-MM-DD — MUST match settlementDate from price_guard

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_spot_rate ~86

Get an indicative spot FX rate for a currency pair. Returns rounded bid, ask, and mid rates for illustration purposes only — not for execution. Example: base=GBP, quote=USD returns the GBPUSD rate.

NameTypeReqDescription
basestringyesBase currency ISO code, e.g. GBP
quotestringyesQuote currency ISO code, e.g. USD

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_supported_currencies ~39

List the currency pairs currently available for Guard pricing. Always call this rather than assuming which pairs are supported — the list is configuration-driven and changes.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

price_guard ~219

Price a Guard — CurrencyGuard's FX protection product for real future payments or receipts. If a tenor like '3 months' is given, call resolve_settlement_date first to get the exact date, then call this tool. Returns: guardType (Guard-Pay or Guard-Receive), guardRate, guardFee, guardFeePercent, effectiveRate, guardAmount (home currency equivalent), foreignAmount, spotRate, settlementDate, settlementWindowOpens, valid, errors. All quotes are indicative.

NameTypeReqDescription
foreignAmountnumberyesAmount in foreign currency to protect
foreignCurrencystringyesForeign currency ISO code, e.g. USD
guardCurrencystringyesHome/base currency ISO code, e.g. GBP
guardRatenumberOptional fixed guard rate (strike) — if set, prices at this rate instead of current market
payReceivestringyesPAY if paying foreign currency, RECEIVE if receiving it
settlementDatestringyesSettlement date in ISO format YYYY-MM-DD

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

price_guard_extension ~249

Get an indicative price for extending a Guard to a later settlement date. Estimates the additional cost using: (1) the guard fee difference between extended and original expiry, (2) the guard spread cost from the roll, and (3) the CurrencyGuard extension margin. Returns a breakdown: extensionCost = feeDifference + guardSpreadCost + extensionMargin. Both the original and extended quotes are priced at the same guard rate (the original quote's strike), so the fee difference reflects purely the longer tenor, not market movement. Use this when a customer asks 'how much would it cost to extend my Guard by X months?' Parameters match price_guard plus the two dates.

NameTypeReqDescription

foreignCurrencystringyesForeign currency ISO code, e.g. USD

payReceivestringyesPAY if paying foreign currency, RECEIVE if receiving it

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

resolve_settlement_date ~185

Resolve a relative time period (tenor) to a valid business settlement date for a currency pair. Use this when a user says '3 months', '6 months', '1 year', etc. instead of an exact date. The tenor format is: 1D (days), 1W (weeks), 1M (months), 1Y (years). Examples: '3M' = 3 months, '6M' = 6 months, '1Y' = 1 year. The returned date accounts for weekends and public holidays in both currencies' financial centres. Use the returned settlementDate as the exact date parameter for price_guard.
