Toolstem MCP Server
Supports deployment as a self-hosted MCP server on Cloudflare Workers runtime, enabling financial data tools to run on edge infrastructure.
Toolstem MCP Server
Agent-ready financial intelligence tools — curated, not raw.
Toolstem is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that turns raw financial market data into curated, synthesized intelligence for AI agents. Unlike passthrough wrappers that just expose a vendor's REST API, every Toolstem tool combines multiple data sources, derives signals, and pre-computes the math an agent would otherwise have to do itself.
One call. One agent-friendly JSON response. No nested arrays to parse, no cross-endpoint stitching, no null-checking boilerplate.
Why Toolstem?
Most financial MCP servers expose one tool per API endpoint — forcing your agent to make 4–5 sequential calls, write glue code, and reason about raw data shapes. Toolstem is built differently:
Parallel data fetching — every tool fans out to multiple sources concurrently.
Derived signals — human-readable recommendations like
UNDERVALUED,STRONG,ACCELERATINGcomputed from raw numbers.Pre-computed math — CAGRs, YoY growth, margin trends, distance from 52-week high/low, FCF yield, and more are already in the response.
Flat, predictable schema — no deeply nested vendor quirks leaking into agent prompts.
Graceful degradation — if one upstream endpoint fails, the rest of the response still comes through with nulls in place.
Tools

Toolstem is distributed on Smithery for one-click installation into supported MCP clients.
Apify
Available on the Apify Store as the toolstem-financial-data Actor. Call it from your Apify workflow with input:
{
"tool": "get_stock_snapshot",
"symbol": "AAPL"
}or
{
"tool": "get_company_metrics",
"symbol": "AAPL",
"period": "annual"
}Results are pushed to the default dataset. The actor monetizes per tool call via Apify's Pay-Per-Event model.
Self-hosting (Cloudflare Workers / any Node runtime)
Build and run the HTTP transport:
npm install
npm run build
FMP_API_KEY=your_key npm run start:httpYour MCP client can then connect to POST http://your-host:3000/mcp.
