Alerts to orders
Automate AI agent alerts to Robinhood
Nyria lets an AI agent trade your Robinhood account over MCP.

Setup steps
Add a Nyria strategy's MCP server URL to Claude or Cursor. Then connect your Robinhood account in Nyria with your Robinhood login, an unofficial connection in beta. Each agent alert becomes an order in your own Robinhood account. Nyria connects live Robinhood accounts only, so test it free on Nyria Paper first.
- 1Connect Robinhood. Select Integrations, then the Robinhood card. Enter the username and password you use in the Robinhood app. Approve the request in the Robinhood app, or enter the 6-digit code Robinhood sends you.
- 2Create an AI Agent strategy. In Nyria, select Create strategy and pick AI Agent (MCP) as the alert source. Choose stocks or options as the asset type, then select Create draft. On the Integration tab's Alert format card, select Check format. Once every example passes, the strategy turns Active and can take a bot.
- 3Connect your AI agent. Select Show URL and copy the MCP server URL. In Claude, add it as a custom connector and choose No sign in. Cursor reads it from mcp.json. ChatGPT connects it on Business, Enterprise and Edu plans. On Business, an admin or owner adds it. Keep it private, because the token inside is the key.
- 4Preview, then test on paper. Ask the agent to preview an alert, such as OPEN AAPL LONG. A preview shows how Nyria reads it and places nothing. Send real alerts to a Nyria Paper bot before a live one. The Logs tab shows every alert the agent sends.
- 5Deploy a bot. On the strategy, select Deploy bot. Pick the Robinhood account on the Account step and set a Budget per entry. Live bots need a Nyria Pro plan or a Premium strategy you have bought. The next alert becomes an order.
What an AI agent alert must say
Nyria needs the ticker, the side, and whether it opens or closes a position. It reads plain text or JSON in your own wording. There is no template to follow. For options, Provided in alert reads the strike, expiry and call or put. From my rules picks the contract.
Your agent sends each alert as one message, in plain text or JSON. A clear format, such as OPEN SPY LONG, is read directly. Other wording goes to an AI model, so have the agent preview it first.
An alert cannot set the size: each bot's budget per entry does. Exits come from your exit alerts.
A stock entry
OPEN NVDA LONG
Buy NVDA. The alert carries no size. Each bot sizes it from its own settings.
An exit
CLOSE NVDA LONG
Close the NVDA position, matched against what the bot is holding.
What Robinhood does with it
Nyria's Robinhood connection is unofficial. It signs in with your Robinhood login. The password is used once and discarded, and the tokens Robinhood issues are stored encrypted at rest. If Robinhood ends the session, Nyria asks for a new sign-in. Unofficial connection. Nyria isn't affiliated with Robinhood.
Options go to Robinhood as single legs or spreads up to 4 legs in one order. Options trading must be turned on in the Robinhood account.
A crypto alert places no order on this connection. Use Alpaca or Nyria Paper for crypto.
Each alert becomes a market or a limit order, as the strategy sets it. Nyria sends a market order to Robinhood as a limit order priced from the live quote. Nothing waits at Robinhood between alerts. The exit comes from your alert.
