Financial Modeling Prep MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the Financial Modeling Prep API, exposing 250+ financial data tools to AI assistants.

250+ Financial Tools across 24 categories — stocks, ETFs, crypto, forex, commodities, economics, and more
Dynamic Tool Management — built on toolception for runtime enable/disable of toolsets via meta-tools
Three Server Modes — Dynamic (meta-tools), Static (pre-loaded toolsets), or All Tools (default)
Flexible Deployment — use the hosted instance or self-host via npm, Docker, or source
HTTP/SSE Transport — compatible with Claude.ai, Claude Desktop, and MCP registries

Quick Start

Hosted Instance (Fastest)

No installation required. Connect directly:

https://financial-modeling-prep-mcp-server-production.up.railway.app/mcp

Provide your FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN in session configuration and start using 5 meta-tools to load toolsets on demand.

Self-Hosted (One-Liner)

npx financial-modeling-prep-mcp-server --fmp-token=YOUR_FMP_API_KEY

Or install globally:

npm install -g financial-modeling-prep-mcp-server
fmp-mcp --fmp-token=YOUR_FMP_API_KEY

Get your API key at financialmodelingprep.com.
