Verification gaps / watch-outs

Installation and comprehensive security have not been independently audited.
Place/cancel trades and change bots with write modules Reported action classes: Place/cancel trades and change bots with write modules; Live order placement/cancellation possible with trading modules and Trade-permission API credentials. Complete write authority is not verified.
Market module keyless; account/trade requires local OKX API credentials in ~/.okx/config.toml
Sensitive access: Trading API keys, Balances, Positions, Trade strategy

Recommend demo/read-only and market-only modules before live operations
Can place real financial orders with live profile and Trade-enabled API key; demo, market-only, read-only and live modes differ. Withdraw permission not required or recommended.
Real live trading is possible; demo keys, market-data-only and read-only modes exist. Never present as a read-only tool by default.
Unknown vulnerabilities and client-side tool approvals were not exhaustively evaluated.

Additional setup details required — see the specific gaps below.

Install / connect
Publisher instructions
Publisher current installation names: `npm install -g @okx_ai/okx-trade-mcp @okx_ai/okx-trade-cli`. Configure OKX credentials with the documented local flow, then register the MCP server in host. Do not confuse old `okx-trade-mcp` publication with current scoped packages.

npm install -g @okx_ai/okx-trade-mcp @okx_ai/okx-trade-cli
client registration · Publisher instructions
okx-trade-mcp setup --client claude-desktop
Configure / authenticate
Publisher instructions
OKX Agent Trade Kit install npm @okx_ai/okx-trade-mcp and CLI then okx config init. Exchange API credentials may authorize live trading; never trade to verify connection.
Check connection
Suggested check
Verify host MCP tool discovery and use only market-info/read-only tools; NEVER verify by placing live trades or transferring assets.
Remove / uninstall / revoke
MCP100 setup guide
First unregister OKX MCP in the target client. This removes installed global executables only; do not remove exchange accounts/API keys as implicit cleanup.
Distinguish client registration removal from software uninstall, persistent data deletion and provider OAuth/API-key revocation.
npm uninstall -g @okx_ai/okx-trade-mcp @okx_ai/okx-trade-cli

What setup and authentication are documented?

Recorded installation/entrypoint step: npx -y @okx_ai/okx-trade-mcp --modules market. Recorded transport: stdio. Prerequisites: Compatible MCP client.

These are the documented setup details, not a claim that installation or client compatibility was independently tested. Authentication: Market module keyless; account/trade requires local OKX API credentials in ~/.okx/config.toml A demo or keyless description is not independently verified read-only authority. Confirm that live order execution is disabled in the configuration you actually run before research-only use.

Can it modify data or perform write operations?

Not verified. The available evidence does not establish the complete write authority. The partial inventory lists: Place/cancel trades and change bots with write modules; Live order placement/cancellation possible with trading modules and Trade-permission API credentials. Recorded permission context: Place/cancel trades and change bots with write modules

What data-handling boundary should I consider?

Depends on configured local process, connected account and remote APIs; review first-party privacy terms for any hosted component. Recorded sensitive-access context: Trading API keys; Balances; Positions; Trade strategy.
