Field notes
Users add an MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or another compatible app; the page also says the service works over plain HTTP. The endpoint is presented as a way to check an idea against prior results before spending another backtest, including failure patterns and distributions across markets. The homepage lists 2,825 tests evaluated on data not used to build the ideas and says 547 verdicts are frozen in a public hash chain; these figures and methods are presented by the project, not independently verified here.
