What it does and how to use it

A connector (MCP) that links Claude to an external integration tool or service, giving it access to real data and actions.

Install the connector (command above).
Add the service credentials/keys when asked.
Claude can now read and act on that service directly.

Install (Claude Code)

mkdir -p .claude/mcps && curl -fsSL https://doutorai.pt/data/lib/mcps__alpaca-trading.md -o .claude/mcps/alpaca-trading.json

Paste this command into the terminal, in your project folder, and the component installs automatically.
