## 🚀 Quick Start
### Installation
Install Finance MCP using pip:
```bash
pip install finance-mcp
```
Or using uv:
```bash
uv pip install finance-mcp
```
### Usage Modes
Finance MCP supports two usage modes:
1. **Stdio Mode**: Direct execution via `uvx`, suitable for local MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.)
2. **Service Mode**: Start as HTTP/SSE server, suitable for remote deployment and web applications
---
### Mode 1: Stdio Mode (Direct Execution)
This mode runs Finance MCP directly through `uvx`, communicating via standard input/output. Ideal for local MCP clients.
#### Step 1: Configure MCP Client
Add this configuration to your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cursor):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"finance-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"finance-mcp",
"config=default,ths",
"mcp.transport=stdio",
"llm.default.model_name=qwen3-30b-a3b-thinking-2507",
"disabled_flows='[\"tavily_search\",\"mock_search\",\"react_agent\"]'"
],
"env": {
"FLOW_LLM_API_KEY": "xxx",
"FLOW_LLM_BASE_URL": "https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1",
"DASHSCOPE_API_KEY": "xxx",
"TUSHARE_API_TOKEN": "xxx",
"TAVILY_API_KEY": "xxx",
"BAILIAN_MCP_API_KEY": "xxx"
}
}
}
}
```
---
### Mode 2: Service Mode (HTTP/SSE Server)
This mode starts Finance MCP as a standalone HTTP/SSE server that can be accessed remotely.
#### Step 1: Configure Environment Variables
Copy `example.env` to `.env` and fill in your API keys:
```bash
cp example.env .env
# Edit .env and fill in your API keys
```
#### Step 2: Start the Server
Start the Finance MCP server with SSE transport:
```bash
finance-mcp \
config=default,ths \
mcp.transport=sse \
mcp.host=0.0.0.0 \
mcp.port=8001 \
llm.default.model_name=qwen3-30b-a3b-thinking-2507 \
disabled_flows='["tavily_search","mock_search","react_agent"]'
```
The service will be available at: `http://0.0.0.0:8001/sse`
#### Step 3: Connect from MCP Client
Add this configuration to your MCP client to connect to the remote SSE server:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"finance-mcp": {
"url": "http://0.0.0.0:8001/sse"
}
}
}
```
---
### HTTP RESTful API with Streaming Support
Finance MCP also supports HTTP RESTful API mode with streaming capabilities. This allows you to access flows directly via HTTP endpoints, not just through MCP protocol.
#### Step 1: Start HTTP Server
Start the Finance MCP server with HTTP backend:
```bash
finance-mcp \
config=default,stream_agent \
backend=http \
http.host=0.0.0.0 \
http.port=8002 \
llm.default.model_name=qwen3-30b-a3b-thinking-2507
```
#### Step 2: Make Streaming HTTP Requests
All flows configured with `stream: true` will be exposed as streaming HTTP endpoints. Responses are streamed in real-time using Server-Sent Events (SSE) format.
Example: Request streaming deep research (inspired by [open_deep_research](https://github.com/langchain-ai/open_deep_research)):
```bash
curl -X POST http://0.0.0.0:8002/langchain_deep_research \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"query": "I want to learn about Kweichow Moutai stock"}'
```
The response will be streamed in real-time, showing:
- Thinking process and reasoning
- Tool calls and intermediate results
- Final comprehensive answer
**Note**: By default, this uses DashScope search, but you can replace it with other search backends (e.g., Tavily) by modifying the `stream_agent.yaml` configuration.
### Configuration Parameters
| Parameter | Description | Example |
|--------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------|
| `config` | Configuration files to load (comma-separated). Available: `default` (core flows), `ths` (TongHuaShun stock data), `stream_agent` (streaming agents), `external_mcp` (external MCP services) | `config=default,ths` |
| `mcp.transport` | Transport mode: `stdio` (Claude Desktop), `sse` (web apps), `http` (RESTful), `streamable-http` | `mcp.transport=stdio` |
| `mcp.host` | Host address (for sse/http transports only) | `mcp.host=0.0.0.0` |
| `mcp.port` | Port number (for sse/http transports only) | `mcp.port=8001` |
| `llm.default.model_name` | Default LLM model name (overrides config file) | `llm.default.model_name=qwen3-30b-a3b-thinking-2507` |
| `disabled_flows` | JSON array of flow names to disable. **Tip**: Disable flows if you don't have the required API keys (e.g., `tavily_search` requires `TAVILY_API_KEY`) | `disabled_flows='["react_agent"]'` |
### Environment Variables
| Variable | Required | Description |
|-----------------------|-------------|--------------------------------------------|
| `FLOW_LLM_API_KEY` | ✅ Yes | API key for OpenAI-compatible LLM service |
| `FLOW_LLM_BASE_URL` | ✅ Yes | Base URL for OpenAI-compatible LLM service |
| `DASHSCOPE_API_KEY` | ⚠️ Optional | For DashScope search and entity extraction |

### Using with FastMCP Client
When running in Service Mode, you can also use the [FastMCP](https://gofastmcp.com/getting-started/welcome) Python client to directly access the server:
```python
import asyncio
from fastmcp import Client
async def main():
async with Client("http://0.0.0.0:8001/sse") as client:
result = await client.call_tool(
name="dashscope_search",
arguments={"query": "Recent news about Zijin Mining"}
)
print(result)
asyncio.run(main())
```
