# GammaRips

> Better-quality option contracts every night, the history to set targets and stops, and your AI builds the trade plan with you. In Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Codex.

GammaRips is an options-flow intelligence engine for AI agents. Every trading night it ranks about 3,500 optionable US stocks by liquidity, keeps the 100 most liquid, keeps the bullish names, and selects one out-of-the-money call in each on contract liquidity: a pool of roughly 40 to 50 contracts with deep books. Humans browse everything free at gammarips.com. AI agents connect over MCP (Agent Access, $29/mo founding price, 30-day free trial) for the full pool, point-in-time features, liquidity checks, the exit lab (how far past pool contracts moved for and against, touch probabilities, bracket scoring), contract replay, regime context, and methodology playbooks.

Ask your agent for a trade and it builds a plan with you: candidates that pass the liquidity and earnings checks, entry, a target and a stop set from what past pool contracts did, and a size that fits your maximum loss. There is no pick endpoint. Each user's agent builds its own plan, so subscribers do not crowd into one contract.

- **Live record:** Claude Code trading the GammaRips pool with real money closed 11 of 14 trades at a profit, +$2,263 net realized (entries 2026-09-14 to 2026-10-02). Every trade is on https://gammarips.com/scorecard, and redacted day traces are public at https://github.com/DevDizzle/gammarips-harness.
- **Pool hit rates:** of 636 pool contracts that have expired (scan dates 2026-08-24 to 2026-09-18), 56.3% hit +50% and 73.6% hit +20% before expiration. Within 3 trading days of the 10:00 ET entry, 34.5% of 1,150 pool contracts hit +50%. A hit is a touch of that level, not profit kept. Contracts move both ways, so the exit plan decides the result: that is what the exit lab is for.
- **Contract quality:** median open interest 4,664 vs 906 before the liquidity rule, median session volume 1,039 vs 232, and the thinnest 10% at 1,635 open interest vs 29 (1,300 pool contracts 2026-08-24 to 2026-10-01 vs the 60 scan days before). In a 60-session study ending 2026-08-14, no-fill at the 10:00 ET entry fell from 40.5% to 6.1%.

## The funnel (liquidity-first since 2026-08-24)

1. **Scanner**: nightly liquidity rank of about 3,500 optionable US stocks. A name needs 3M+ session share volume and 25+ listed strikes; the top 100 by combined chain dollar volume and share volume survive. Liquidity decides membership, not unusual activity; flow is context in the data, not a gate.
2. **Pool**: bullish names only; one out-of-the-money call per name, chosen on contract liquidity; roughly 40 to 50 contracts (`overnight_score >= 1` is a cosmetic floor; most days more than 50 bullish names qualify, and a deterministic point-in-time rank (delta band, 60-day momentum, a liquidity demotion) keeps 50, using no outcome data). Thesis, technicals, news context, and the selected contract attached per name.
3. **Earnings check**: the published pool is NOT earnings-screened. Run `get_signal` with `view=earnings` on any candidate before acting.
4. **Leakage discipline**: every field is point-in-time; nothing an agent reads contains information that wasn't knowable at the time it's dated.
5. **Outcome tracking**: every pool contract is tracked to its realized outcome. The exit lab serves that history so your agent sets the target and the stop from data.

## MCP server (Agent Access: API key or OAuth sign-in)

- Endpoint: `https://mcp.gammarips.com/mcp`
- Transport: Streamable HTTP (legacy SSE at `/sse`)
- Auth, option 1 (any client that can send a header): `Authorization: Bearer <API key>`, generated by the subscriber at https://gammarips.com/account with an active subscription (subscribe at https://gammarips.com/pricing; $29/mo, 30-day free trial; the key is shown once, at creation)
- Auth, option 2 (chat clients that cannot send a header): OAuth 2.1 at `https://mcp.gammarips.com/pro`, the credentialed twin of `/mcp` with the same transport and the same 9 tools. An anonymous request gets a 401 naming the authorization server (`https://gammarips.com`), which starts the sign-in. PKCE S256 required; dynamic client registration (RFC 7591) and client ID metadata documents both supported; grants `authorization_code`, `refresh_token`, `client_credentials`; scope `mcp:read`. Discovery: `https://mcp.gammarips.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/pro` and `https://gammarips.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`. Headless agents use `client_credentials` with a machine client created at https://gammarips.com/account. An API key also works on `/pro`; `/mcp` stays anonymous.
- Anonymous funnel tier (no key): the pool preview (`get_pool` with `view=preview`), daily reports, methodology playbooks, and the regime and calendar reference tools. The full pool and the outcome substrate require a key.
- Start with: `get_playbook` with `name=start-here`, then `get_pool`, then `query_outcomes` with `view=harvest`
- All 9 tools: `get_pool` (the candidate pool; `view=preview` is free, `view=enriched`/`raw`/`features` need a pro key), `get_signal` (one ticker: detail or earnings-window check), `get_liquidity` (fresh entry-day liquidity, one contract or the whole pool), `query_outcomes` (realized outcomes and receipts, nine views), `replay_contract` (raw option price tape, minute or daily), `get_regime_context` (VIX vs VIX3M regime rail), `get_market_calendar_status` (NYSE status or available scan dates), `get_playbook` (methodology, field dictionary, and data-contract schema), `get_daily_report` (the daily report or a list of recent ones)
- Built-in prompts: `morning_brief`, `analyze_candidate`, `run_your_own_tournament`: workflows that end in a plan you decide on, never a pick.

## Pricing

- **Free**: the whole human-readable website. Today's pool, daily reports, per-ticker deep dives, scorecard, the Lab, methodology. Free forever, no account required.
- **Agent Access $29/mo**: full MCP access. $29/mo is the founding price, for the first 100 subscribers, and it stays at that rate as long as the subscription stays active. The price is $39/mo after that. Send your API key in an Authorization header (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, and any MCP client that can send the header), or add `https://mcp.gammarips.com/pro` and sign in with OAuth, which is how a chat client that cannot send a header reaches the same tools. The free tier works in every MCP client with no credential at all. 30-day free trial. Cancel anytime.
