MCP Yahoo Finance

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Yahoo Finance interaction. This server provides tools to get pricing, company information and more.

Please note that mcp-yahoo-finance is currently in early development. The functionality and available tools are subject to change and expansion as I continue to develop and improve the server.

Installation

You don't need to manually install mcp-yahoo-finance if you use uv. We'll use uvx to directly run mcp-yahoo-finance.

I would recommend using this method if you simply want to use the MCP server.

Using pip

Using pip.

pip install mcp-yahoo-finance

Using Git

You can also install the package after cloning the repository to your machine.

git clone git@github.com:maxscheijen/mcp-yahoo-finance.git
cd mcp-yahoo-finance
uv sync
