VIX Monitor connector

Install the VIX Monitor in Claude, ChatGPT or Grok

The VIX Monitor is a read-only Model Context Protocol server. You add it once to your assistant, sign in with your personal access key, and ask about market volatility in plain language. The tools read data and never place orders.

01 · Connector address

One address for every assistant

Every assistant asks for the server address. Use this one, exactly as written.

02 · Claude

Add it to Claude

  1. Open Settings, then Connectors, and choose Add custom connector.
  2. Paste the connector address and give it a name, for example VIX Monitor.
  3. Choose sign in. Claude opens the VIX Monitor authorization page.
  4. Enter your personal access key on that page and confirm.

Claude can also send the key as a fixed X-API-Key request header in the connector settings. On Team and Enterprise plans that header is shared by every member of the workspace.

03 · ChatGPT

Add it to ChatGPT

  1. Open Settings, then Connectors, and create a new connector.
  2. Paste the connector address and choose sign in (OAuth) as the authentication method.
  3. ChatGPT opens the VIX Monitor authorization page. Enter your personal access key and confirm.

ChatGPT does not accept custom request headers, so sign in is the only way to connect.

04 · Grok

Add it to Grok

  1. Open the connectors settings and choose to add a custom connector.
  2. Enter the connector address and complete the sign in on the VIX Monitor authorization page with your personal access key.

On Grok Business and Enterprise an administrator first enables the connector for the workspace.

05 · Access key

Your personal access key

Each person or service gets its own key. Keep it private and never paste it into a chat. Without a key the connector answers that access is not authorized. Ask for early access to receive one.

06 · Questions

Frequent questions

Does the connector change anything in my accounts?

No. Every tool is read-only. It returns volatility data and never places orders or stores client records.

Why does the assistant ask me to sign in?

Sign in exchanges your personal access key for a session token, so the key itself is entered only on the VIX Monitor page.

What happens if my key stops working?

The connector answers that access is not authorized. Ask for a new key and sign in again.
