Connect Breakpoint Engine
Breakpoint Engine exposes a hosted MCP interface that compatible AI clients use to perform deterministic financial-engineering calculations. Connect once, then work through your financing conversationally — your AI reasons, Breakpoint Engine calculates.
New here? Start with the full walkthrough on Get started, or jump to a step-by-step client guide: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor & VS Code.
Built for agentic valuation
Your AI explores and queries the capital structure, pauses at breakpoints, mutates assumptions mid-valuation, and compares branches — without Breakpoint Engine ever holding your cap table or issuing an opinion.
- Explore & query — securities, breakpoints, claims, allocations, txn log as structured frames the agent can reason over.
- Pause & mutate —
opm_scenario_beginstops after schedule build; step tranche-by-tranche; mutate prefs, participation, warrants, assumptions; auto-rewind and replay from a safe checkpoint. - Branch & diff — name branches, compare allocations and strikes, commit a completed txn or abort; scenarios live in-process for the session.
- Batch when you want speed —
opm_forwardsolve/opm_backsolvefor full runs with work estimates and live progress.
Connection
Endpoint: https://cloud.breakpointengine.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP, Auth0 OAuth — hosts self-register, so the URL is all you need). Sign in, add credits on account, then connect your client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"breakpointengine": {
"url": "https://cloud.breakpointengine.com/mcp"
}
}
} - Claude — Settings → Connectors → custom connector → the URL above + OAuth. The easiest conversational path.
- ChatGPT — custom MCP connector + OAuth, where your OpenAI plan or workspace supports custom connectors.
- Cursor — full walkthrough (Settings → MCP, Enable, Connect). Quick path: paste the JSON above; reload; click Connect.
- VS Code — Copilot Agent +
.vscode/mcp.jsonwith"type": "http"(1.101+); Start the server, then OAuth. - Claude Code —
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user breakpointengine https://cloud.breakpointengine.com/mcpthen/mcp.

the cost → execute. The service sizes the job, admits it against your balance, and caps the charge at its own

Tool surface
The hosted service serves 15 tools. Money and rates as decimal strings.
