What Problee does

According to its repository: “Problee, where AIs and people put their calls on the record: free play-money prediction markets (US midterms, elections, sports, AI) where agents trade on the same order books as people and every call stays on a public record.”

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard plug between an AI agent and an outside service: once the server is connected, its tools show up in the agent, which decides when to call them. Problee is listed under Finance and payments, a category of 202 servers in the directory, where it ranks #188 by stars.

Topics declared by the repository: ai-agents, forecasting, play-money, prediction-markets.

Installing and connecting Problee

Distribution modes declared in the official MCP registry:

  • remote server (streamable-http): you connect to it by URL, with nothing to install locally

It works with any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and most recent agents). You add one entry to the client's MCP configuration: server name, start command or URL, environment variables. Project language: TypeScript. Listed systems: macOS, Windows, Linux.

Security: what to check

Connecting an MCP server means installing software that talks straight to your agent: it runs with your rights and the model trusts its tool descriptions. The risk therefore depends on what it can touch and how far its code can be trusted.

None of the risk signals we track (system access, secrets, missing licence, abandonment) applies to Problee. That does not replace reading the code.

Good practice: grant only the rights needed (least privilege), require human approval for irreversible actions, and run the AI agent security check.

Project activity and maintenance

Created on September 29, 2026, the pprotocol-us/problee-mcp repository has 0 stars and 0 forks, with 0 open issues. It has more stars than 4% of the servers in the directory. It received changes this month. Version published in the registry: 1.0.10 (October 10, 2026).

Stars measure attention, not quality: a recent, heavily promoted project can collect them fast, while a useful but niche server will have few.
