Our reading of Papertrade AI, from the data
Papertrade AI is a ai & llm tools MCP server from nirholas, listed in the official MCP Registry.
Its endpoint requires sign-in or an API key just to list tools, so we haven't measured its token cost; we never use real credentials.
Maintenance is active: the last public signal was 8 days ago (2026-10-10). For comparison, 59% of ai & llm tools servers are active or maintained.
With 0 GitHub stars it ranks #1,305 of 3,169 ai & llm tools servers we index.
It runs either locally over stdio or as a hosted endpoint and needs one secret (PAPERTRADE_PRIVATE_KEY); use a scoped, least-privilege key.
