Financial Modeling Prep MCP Server

npm version license Listed on LightNow mcptry Financial Modeling Prep MCP on mcprush

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the Financial Modeling Prep API, exposing 267 financial data tools to AI assistants.

Features

  • 267 Financial Tools across 24 toolsets — 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 (5 meta-tools), Static (pre-loaded toolsets), or All Tools (default)
  • Flexible Deployment — use the hosted instance or self-host via npm, Docker (built from source), or source
  • Streamable HTTP 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

The hosted instance runs in Dynamic mode: it starts with 5 meta-tools that load toolsets on demand. Pass your FMP API key as FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN in the ?config= session configuration (see Usage).

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.

Installation

Prerequisites: Node.js 25.3.0 or higher (for v2.6.0+). For older versions (v2.5.x and below), Node.js 20+ is required.

Choose the method that fits your workflow:

  • NPM — npm install -g financial-modeling-prep-mcp-server
  • Docker — build the image from source (no pre-built image is published)
  • Source — clone and run with npm install && npm run build

See docs/INSTALLATION.md for detailed steps per method.

Configuration

The server supports three operational modes controlled via CLI arguments or environment variables:

ModeHow to EnableDescription
DynamicDYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=trueStarts with 5 meta-tools; load toolsets at runtime
StaticFMP_TOOL_SETS=search,companyPre-loads specified toolsets on session creation
All Tools (default)(default)Loads all 267 tools immediately

Precedence: for mode and tool sets, CLI args > Environment variables > Defaults. A session ?config= token overrides the server's FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN for that session.

See docs/CONFIGURATION.md for the full configuration reference.

Usage

Connect to the server over streamable HTTP:

  • Claude.ai / Claude Desktop — add as a remote connector (Settings > Connectors)
  • Custom clients — POST to /mcp: send initialize first, then the mcp-session-id it returns on every later request
  • MCP registries — see Registries for where this server is listed

See docs/USAGE.md for client-specific setup, session headers, and request examples.
