🏗️ Architecture

This MCP service is designed to work with AI query engines:

User Query → AI Engine → Edgar MCP → SEC Database
              ↓
    "Netflix's risk factors" → Company Resolution → Deep Content → Structured Response

Integration Example:

// In your AI application
const edgarMCP = 'https://your-service.up.railway.app';

// 1. Resolve company
const company = await fetch(`${edgarMCP}/search/company?q=Netflix`);

// 2. Get content
const riskFactors = await fetch(`${edgarMCP}/extract/risk-factors`, {
  method: 'POST',
  body: JSON.stringify({ cik: company.cik })
});

// 3. Use in AI analysis
const analysis = await openai.chat.completions.create({
  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: `Analyze these risk factors: ${riskFactors}` }]
});
