ChatGPT on Hyperliquid: build and backtest strategies in chat
Add the Keel MCP server as a ChatGPT connector and ChatGPT gets 29 tools on Hyperliquid: search the typed component library, compose a strategy, backtest it on real Hyperliquid history and read the result — in the chat, nothing installed.
- 1Settings → Security and login → turn on Developer mode (a paid ChatGPT plan; on Business/Enterprise an admin must allow it)
- 2Open chatgpt.com/plugins, choose +, give the connector a name and a description, and enter https://mcp.usekeel.io/mcp as the MCP server URL (the /mcp path included)
- 3Sign in or sign up on the Keel page that opens (no account needed beforehand)
https://mcp.usekeel.io/mcpSign in in the browser when asked. No API keys. Sign in to Keel in the browser window ChatGPT opens
Two ways to tell, and either one settles it — a connection that is already live is not improved by signing in again.
In ChatGPT Keel is listed where you added it (Settings → Security and login → Developer mode; chatgpt.com/plugins → +) once the sign-in has finished.
Ask the agent keel_account_status answers with the Keel account the session is signed in as, which nothing but a live connection can return. If the agent says it has no Keel tools, the sign-in did not finish.
Use keel_account_status and tell me which Keel account this session is signed in as.Not yet verified against a ChatGPT version. These steps follow OpenAI's own documentation, read on 2026-09-16.
Ask, compose, backtest, review.
Ask for a strategy
Describe the idea and the universe. ChatGPT searches the typed component library and picks the signals, regimes and sizing rules that fit.
Compose and validate
It writes the strategy in the Keel DSL against those 218 components. The graph is checked as it is composed, so a wrong connection is caught before a backtest.
Backtest on real history
Hyperliquid 15-minute bars and hourly carry, real fees and slippage. Metrics come back in the conversation; ask for a fork to compare a variant.
Review in the app
The agent builds, tests and reads. When you want to run a strategy on your account, it hands it to the Keel app and you take it from there.
Questions about ChatGPT and Hyperliquid
How do I connect ChatGPT to Hyperliquid?
Copy the prompt above into ChatGPT, or add the Keel MCP server as a connector: the box above has the URL and the steps. Sign in with your Keel account in the browser when asked. No API keys, nothing installed.
Does ChatGPT support MCP?
Yes. ChatGPT connectors take a remote MCP server URL, which is how the Keel MCP server plugs in. Codex, OpenAI's coding agent, connects with one command — the Codex guide on the agents page has it.
What can ChatGPT do once it is connected?
Everything the 29 tools cover: component search, composing, backtesting, forking and comparing versions, the strategy library, share links and reading a result. The full list, grouped, is on the agents page.
Can I run a backtest from ChatGPT?
Yes. Ask for one and ChatGPT calls the backtest tool, waits for it, and summarises the metrics in the conversation. Ask for a fork with one parameter changed to compare two runs side by side.
