AlphaAI MCP server

Real-time, AI-enriched financial news for AI agents and trading bots — over the Model Context Protocol. Hosted at mcp.alphai.io, no install, OAuth (no API key to paste), free tier 100 calls/hour.

Every story is enriched with per-ticker analysis, a category (14 buckets), and a 1–10 relevance score, so an agent can filter to what actually matters before spending a reasoning token.

This repo is the public home of the hosted AlphaAI MCP server (the listing you'll find on Smithery, Glama, and the MCP Registry). The product is AlphaAI — a financial-news platform built for AI agents.

Connect

The server speaks Streamable HTTP at https://mcp.alphai.io/mcp. Add it to any OAuth-capable MCP client. Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http alphai https://mcp.alphai.io/mcp

The first tool call opens a browser for OAuth 2.1 — a login, no key to copy-paste. ChatGPT, Claude Desktop / claude.ai, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and Gemini connect the same way. Or use the one-click listing on Smithery.

Notes

  • This is a hosted server — to use it, connect to https://mcp.alphai.io/mcp; there is nothing to self-host. The product source lives in the AlphaAI backend; this repo is the catalog home + server.json manifest.

  • glama_server.py + Dockerfile are an introspection build: a tiny stdio server that declares the same 11 tools (identical names, schemas, descriptions, annotations) so MCP directories can read the tool catalog without OAuth. Its handlers don't run the queries — they point back at the hosted endpoint, where the real data and auth live.

  • News, not advice. The tools summarize reporting; they don't give buy/sell calls.

  • raw_text (full article bodies) is never served — copyright. Responses carry titles, AI summaries, per-ticker analysis, categories and relevance scores.
