## Description

Managing energy risk used to mean jumping between multiple dashboards and running separate reports for every single metric. Now you can connect the AEGIS Hedging account directly to your agent via Vinkius. Your AI client handles complex tasks by simply talking to it. You ask about a portfolio's current Mark-to-Market valuation, and it responds with actionable data. Need to audit trades from last quarter? Just ask. It pulls up the necessary records and checks market insights against them. This MCP lets your agent orchestrate everything—from fetching forward curves for forecasting to pulling normalized figures for compliance reporting—all through natural conversation.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
List all energy trades executed in the last 30 days.
```

**Response:** 
```
I've retrieved your trade logs. You have 12 new trades executed on the AEGIS SEF in the last 30 days, including natural gas swaps and crude oil options. Would you like to see the valuation for these positions?
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Show me the current Mark-to-Market valuation for my natural gas portfolio.
```

**Response:** 
```
I've analyzed your natural gas positions. Based on current forward curves, your MTM valuation is +$1.2M. The settlement estimate for the next month is currently trending higher due to market volatility. Would you like to see the underlying data?
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Retrieve the energy forward curves for the next 12 months.
```

**Response:** 
```
I've retrieved the forward market data. The curves show a steady increase in pricing for Q4 2026. I've prepared a summary of the monthly benchmarks for you. Would you like to audit your current hedge coverage against these curves?

## Capabilities

### Assess current risk exposure
The MCP provides real-time Mark-to-Market (MTM) valuations and settlement estimates for your hedge positions.

### Audit trade history
You can list executed energy hedge trades, checking their status against the AEGIS Marketplace records.

### Forecast commodity pricing
The agent retrieves comprehensive energy forward curves and historical price data for long-term planning.

### Support financial closing
You can pull normalized records covering revenue, taxes, and fees to support month-end accounting and forecasting.

## Use Cases

### Quarterly Portfolio Review
A financial controller needs to know if their gas and oil hedges are profitable. They ask their agent, 'What's the MTM valuation for Q3?' The MCP calls `get_valuations` and combines that data with current market insights from `get_forward_curves`, giving them a single report.

### Investigating an Outlier Trade
A risk manager notices a large, unexplained trade entry. They ask their agent to check the details by running `list_trades` for that specific date range and then cross-reference its valuation using `get_valuations` to see if it was correctly priced.

### Preparing for Year-End Audit
A compliance officer needs proof of all revenue streams. They prompt the agent to retrieve normalized data covering taxes and fees, ensuring they have a complete audit trail from the MCP's reporting tools.

## Benefits

- Audit your entire trade history quickly. Instead of navigating complex databases, you can use the `list_trades` tool to pull up exactly which energy hedge trades were executed, giving instant visibility into the portfolio's activity.
- Get immediate risk status reports. The MCP provides current Mark-to-Market (MTM) data through `get_valuations`, so you always know the real-time value of your open positions without running manual calculations.
- Forecast market moves months ahead. By calling `get_forward_curves`, you access energy forward curves and historical price data, letting you plan for pricing trends over 12+ months.
- Simplify compliance reporting. You can pull normalized records for revenue, taxes, and fees using the MCP to support financial forecasting and SDR reporting with less manual cleanup.
- Stay ahead of operational changes. Always check compatibility first by running `check_api_version`, ensuring that your agent connects using the most current AEGIS API standard.
