What this skill does
HTTP client for a user-deployed mt5-httpapi MetaTrader 5 bridge. Use ONLY when the user has explicitly installed and configured mt5-httpapi AND provided MT5_API_URL. Read endpoints (account, symbols, rates, ticks, server-side technical-analysis enrichment via the wickworks sidecar, history, backtest report fetching) are safe to invoke. Trade-mutating endpoints on /orders and /positions require explicit per-action confirmation showing symbol, side, volume, and SL/TP; terminal shutdown/restart also require explicit confirmation naming the target terminal and operation. Never invoke mutations on inferred intent. Do not use this skill for generic market-data, charting, or trading questions where the user hasn't named mt5-httpapi.
mt5-httpapi is part of the Developer Tools category — developer tools that help your agent write, review, debug, and ship code. You can install it on its own or alongside other developer tools skills from the OpenClaw catalog.
