Description
Option analytics over the SYNTH sample or a permitted chain: Greeks, positioning, payoffs, plots.
What our measurements say
Option Desk is a remote MCP server published at optiondesk.avidquant.com. It has been probed 6 times since 9/12/2026. It answered in 6 of them (100.0%), a near-uninterrupted record. Median response time is 224 ms, placing it among the faster endpoints. It offers a narrow, focused set of 13 tools. On the protocol side it still runs 2025-11-25 and has not moved to the newer spec.
Agent readability score
Can an LLM agent pick the right tool here — names, descriptions and parameter clarity are assessed.
Agent readability score
Strengths
- Some tools (e.g., option_desk_status) clearly state limitations like no live feed support.
- Required parameters (e.g., 'symbol' in option_private_dashboard) are explicitly marked.
Weaknesses
- Many tool names are generic (e.g., 'option_chain_snapshot') without clear intent differentiation.
- Parameters like 'source_text' and 'source_data' have null types with no context.
- Tools like option_validate_snapshot and option_import_snapshot have overlapping purposes.
- Descriptions often lack use-case context, only stating functionality.
option_chain_snapshot— Parameters with null types (e.g., source_format) lack clarityoption_plots— No explicit error handling for invalid plot typesoption_strategy_plot— Ambiguous 'strategy' parameter without allowed valuesoption_report_plots— Unclear how 'strategies' array is formattedoption_private_dashboard— No warning about data retention risks

Advice
Schema compliance
tools/list structure, inputSchema validity, and a functional smoke test — the components of the 0-100 score.
- tools/list schema valid
- inputSchema is valid JSON Schema
- Smoke test not run this round
- Cold-start: cold 66ms → warm 64ms (penalty 2ms)
Tools
Tools the server advertised in the latest measurement — measured, not catalog-claimed.
option_desk_statusCheck the Option Desk data mode, source, refresh time, and public licence gate before requesting figures. No live feed or hosted backtest tool exists, even with uploaded history. Do not offer hosted backtests.
option_snapshot_schemaReturn the accepted CSV and JSON option-chain fields, safe repair rules, size limits, data-rights confirmation, and retention policy.
option_chain_snapshotSummarize SYNTH or analyze a user-supplied option chain for private analysis. This service never fetches market data.
symbolstringsource_textsource_datasource_formatdata_sourcerights_confirmedbooleanexpiryratedividend_yield
option_positioningReturn gamma walls, gamma flip, and max pain from SYNTH or a user-supplied chain. Dealer signs are an assumption, not observed positions.
symbolstringsource_textsource_datasource_formatdata_sourcerights_confirmedbooleanexpiryratedividend_yield
option_plotsRender opaque PNG plots in the conversation. The SYNTH sample offers the market plot (dealer gamma exposure, open interest, volume and the smile by strike), the Greek ladder, and the structure comparison. Each is computed from the sample's own engine artifacts; there is no simulation or backtest for SYNTH because the hosted service has no price history.
symbolstringplotstringsource_textsource_datasource_formatdata_sourcerights_confirmedbooleanexpiryratedividend_yield
option_strategy_plotShow an option-strategy payoff as an opaque PNG in the conversation. Any structure in the engine playbook can be built on the SYNTH sample chain. A market ticker requires user-supplied chain data. Do not start a localhost dashboard.

option_report_plotsReturn the market map, Greek ladder, strategy comparison and up to three requested payoff charts in ONE widget. Prefer this tool for multi-chart reports instead of parallel individual plot calls. Includes strategy_records, Greek units, scenarios and cost assumptions. Use those records for tables; never invent currency or a multiplier. Uses SYNTH or a user-supplied chain; never fetches live data.
