# AI tools

> WhiteBIT AI tools — a trading MCP server, a CLI, and documentation integrations for Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, Codex, and OpenClaw.

WhiteBIT provides two categories of AI tools: **trading tools** for executing trades and querying account data, and **documentation tools** for searching the API reference inside a development environment.

<CardGroup cols={2}>

    Connect Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, Codex, or OpenClaw to 115 WhiteBIT trading tools. Place orders, check balances, manage positions, and query market data using natural language.
  </Card>

  <Card title="CLI" icon="terminal" href="/guides/cli">
    Trade and manage the account directly from the terminal. 110+ commands with JSON output, multi-profile support, dry-run mode, and shell completion. Built for scripting and CI/CD pipelines.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Docs search via MCP" icon="magnifying-glass" href="/guides/ai-ide-setup">
    Configure Cursor, VS Code, or Claude Desktop to search the full WhiteBIT API documentation via MCP. The AI client gains direct access to all endpoint reference pages.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Docs page AI menu" icon="comment" href="/guides/ai-context-menu">
    Copy any documentation page for AI consumption, open pages in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, or Grok, and access MCP connection options — from the dropdown on every documentation page.

## Trading tools

The [MCP server](/guides/mcp-server) and [CLI](/guides/cli) connect directly to the WhiteBIT exchange API. Both tools require a WhiteBIT account and API key for authenticated operations. Public market data tools (prices, order book, market info) require no authentication.

| Tool       | Best for                                      | Authentication                                        |
| ---------- | --------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| MCP server | Natural language trading in an AI client      | API key for private tools; `"public"` for market data |
| CLI        | Terminal-based trading, scripting, automation | API key or environment variables                      |

## Documentation tools

The [docs search MCP](/guides/ai-ide-setup) and [docs page AI menu](/guides/ai-context-menu) help developers access API reference content inside AI tools without switching context.

<Note>
  The documentation search MCP (`https://docs.whitebit.com/mcp`) and the trading MCP (`http://localhost:8080/mcp`) are separate integrations. The documentation MCP searches API reference pages. The trading MCP executes API calls against the WhiteBIT exchange.
