Setup
Connect the Rothera toolkit to search and analyse Toolforest’s stored Rothera market data. It is a read-only toolkit built from Rothera’s public end-of-day files and retained trade tapes, not a connection to live trading.
Prerequisites
Before connecting, ensure you have configured an MCP server in your toolforest.io dashboard.
Setup Steps
Rothera requires no account, OAuth connection, wallet, or trading credentials.
Prefer video? This 58-second walkthrough shows the whole setup, from the Prediction Markets tab to a connected toolkit:
Step 1: Connect
- Open Toolforest and go to Toolkits.
- Select the Prediction Markets tab.
- Find Rothera.
- Click Connect.
Step 2: Confirmation
The toolkit status will change to Connected, and your assistant can begin querying the stored data.
Understanding Data Access
Public, read-only data
Toolforest serves stored snapshots derived from Rothera’s public files, together with retained executions. The toolkit can search and analyse that data but cannot place trades, manage orders, or access funds.
Managing Your Connection
Disconnect
To disconnect the toolkit:
- Click the Disconnect button in your MCP server panel.
- The toolkit will stop serving Rothera data to your assistant.
Note: There is no Rothera account authorisation or third-party permission to revoke.

Reading Rothera data
End of day, not live
price is an end-of-day settlement mark. It is not a live quote, midpoint, best bid or ask, or necessarily the last execution. The toolkit has no order-book tool.
volume, volume_24h, and trade quantities are measured in contracts, not USD notional.
The 0.50 convention
Rothera often publishes 0.5 for a contract that did not trade during a session. Preserve the accompanying volume and open-interest information rather than treating every 0.5 as missing:
price == 0.5withvolume == 0andopen_interest == 0can represent no market or a contract that has never traded.price == 0.5with non-zero open interest remains a real stored settlement mark. The contract may simply have had no execution in that session.
Stored coverage
- Search covers Toolforest’s human-readable title index for supported Rothera end-of-day markets, not the venue’s raw catalogue.
- Trade-tape queries are scoped to one market and retained by source session. They do not form a live tape.
- History contains daily end-of-day observations.
