List tools (REST) - `POST /mcp/tools/call` - Call tool (REST) #### Web Interface: - `GET /` - Serve HTML interface --- ## 📦 NPM Scripts ### Build & Watch: - `npm run build` - Compile all TypeScript files - `npm run watch` - Watch mode (auto-rebuild) ### Development (with auto-reload): - `npm run dev` - Stock Market server - `npm run dev-currency` - Currency server - `npm run dev-time` - Time server - `npm run dev-units` - Units server ### Production: - `npm start` - Stock Market server - `npm run start-currency` - Currency server - `npm run start-time` - Time server - `npm run start-units` - Units server --- ## 🌟 Key Features by Server ### 📊 Stock Market MCP **Tool:** `topMovers` - Top gainers with price & percentage - Top losers with market data - Most actively traded stocks - Customizable result limits - Real-time Alpha Vantage data ### 💱 Currency Converter MCP **Tools:** `convertCurrency`, `getSupportedCurrencies`, `getExchangeRates` - 160+ currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CNY, etc.) - Real-time exchange rates - Historical data support - Batch rate queries - No API key required (free tier) ### 🌍 World Time MCP **Tools:** `convertTime`, `getCurrentTime`, `getSupportedTimezones`, `getWorldClocks` - 30+ major timezones - Time conversion between any zones - Current time lookup - DST (Daylight Saving Time) detection - UTC offset calculation - World clock dashboard ### 📏 Units Converter MCP **Tools:** `convertUnits`, `getSupportedUnits`, `getCategories` **Categories:** 1. **Length** -
