Connect
Install
@yellow-pro/yellow-pro-mcp and register it with your AI app. See Installation, or the README on GitHub for the steps for each client.Scope the key
Read scopes are enough for prompt 1 and the review in prompt 10. Add
trade:spot and trade:futures to place orders, and transfer:spot-perp for prompt 8. Leave withdraw:spot off. The connector has no withdrawal tool, so nothing in it can send funds to an outside address. Manage scopes in API Keys.Turn on trading
Order tools load only when
YELLOW_PRO_ENABLE_TRADING=true. Pairing turns this on for you, so on that path the key’s scopes are what limit it. Practise first with YELLOW_PRO_SANDBOX=true. See Configuration.Run prompt 1 first
It checks permissions, balances, position modes and open orders without changing anything, then tells you market by market whether you’re ready.
The prompts
Basic prompts
Prompts 1 to 5. Every step spelled out, post-only by default, leverage at 5x or lower.
Intermediate prompts
Prompts 6 to 10. Shorter guardrails and more moving parts.
Good to know
Market names
Spot markets use the pair name:ETHUSDT, WBTCUSDT, YELLOWUSDT. Perpetuals add -PERP: BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, BNB, DOGE, LINK, SUI, HYPE and TAO, as in BTCUSDT-PERP. Amounts are in the base asset (ETH for ETHUSDT), and Spot and Perps balances are separate. This list was checked on 11 September 2026; ask your assistant for the current one.
What the connector doesn’t do
- It answers when you ask. Nothing runs between your messages, so it can’t alert you or react to price.
- Stops and take-profits are separate orders. There are no one-cancels-other or trailing orders, so when one fills, cancel the other yourself.
- Perpetuals trade on cross margin through the connector.
- Hedge or one-way mode is set in the Yellow.pro app, not by your assistant.
- Orders can’t be edited. To move one, cancel it and place a new one.
- Removing the connector doesn’t revoke the key. Revoke it in the Yellow.pro app — see API Keys.
