Robinhood Agentic Trading

Connect to Robinhood Agentic Trading via MCP. This skill lets OpenClaw access your Robinhood Agentic account — view portfolio, analyze positions, place trades, and execute automated strategies.

Setup

The MCP client (rh-client.mjs) handles OAuth 2.1 PKCE authentication to https://agent.robinhood.com/mcp/trading and manages token storage/refresh automatically.

Prerequisites

1. Robinhood Agentic access (still rolling out — you'll get an email)
2. A dedicated Agentic account (created during OAuth flow)
3. Node.js ≥ 18

Install Dependencies

cd robinhood-agentic
pnpm install

First-time Auth

node rh-client.mjs auth

The script will:

1. Discover Robinhood's OAuth endpoints
2. Generate a PKCE challenge
3. Print an authorization URL → Open this in a desktop browser (mobile redirects to the Robinhood app which doesn't support the Agentic flow)
4. Log into Robinhood, authorize the agent
5. You'll be redirected to http://localhost:1455/callback?code=XXXX...
6. Copy the full redirect URL and paste it back into the terminal
7. Tokens are stored in .rh-tokens.json (gitignored, mode 0600)

Usage

All commands output to stdout. Errors and status messages go to stderr.

Check auth status

node rh-client.mjs status

Returns a JSON object with authenticated, expired, expiresAt, hasRefreshToken, and savedAt.

List available MCP tools

node rh-client.mjs list-tools

Returns a JSON array of tool definitions with names, descriptions, and input schemas.

Call a tool

node rh-client.mjs call <tool_name> '<json_args>'

# Or with stdin for complex args:
echo '{"symbol": "AAPL"}' | node rh-client.mjs call get_equity_quotes -

Output depends on the MCP tool response — may be plain text or JSON. Error messages go to stderr.

Refresh token (auto)

Token refresh happens automatically when the access token is within 5 minutes of expiry (only if a refresh token is available). No manual intervention needed unless the refresh token itself expires.

What OpenClaw Can Do

After auth, OpenClaw can call any tool Robinhood exposes through the MCP server. Based on official docs, the available tools are:

> Read-only tools (portfolio, positions, quotes, etc.) work on all your Robinhood accounts. Trading tools (place/cancel orders) are restricted to the dedicated Agentic account — fund it separately.

Security Notes

• Separate account: The Agentic account is separate from your main Robinhood account — fund it with what you're comfortable with the agent managing
• Tokens stored locally: OAuth tokens in .rh-tokens.json with restrictive 0600 permissions (gitignored, never committed)
• Orders execute immediately: place_equity_order sends the order directly with no app-side confirmation prompt. The only preview is the review_equity_order MCP call — use it before placing.
• Pre-trade preview only in MCP: The review_equity_order tool is the only pre-trade check (returns quote + alerts); place_equity_order skips any app-side prompt entirely.
• Instant shutdown: You can revoke agent access anytime from Robinhood account settings.
