MCP Installation

stock-sdk's MCP server talks to clients over stdio, and the launch command is always stock-sdk mcp. In each AI client you simply register it as a stdio-type MCP server.

The examples below launch via npx (no pre-install needed; -y skips the interactive prompt):

{
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["-y", "stock-sdk", "mcp"]
}

You can also npm install -g stock-sdk first, then set command to "stock-sdk" and args to ["mcp"], saving the npx resolution cost on each start.

Cursor

Create/edit .cursor/mcp.json in your project root (or the global config dir):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stock-sdk": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "stock-sdk", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

After saving, enable stock-sdk in Cursor's MCP settings to call the market-data tools in chat.

Claude Desktop

Edit the Claude Desktop config file:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stock-sdk": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "stock-sdk", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

After saving, restart Claude Desktop; the stock-sdk tool icon should appear in the toolbar.

Codex

Add a server entry to Codex's MCP config (TOML):

[mcp_servers.stock-sdk]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "stock-sdk", "mcp"]

Gemini

Add mcpServers to the Gemini CLI settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stock-sdk": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "stock-sdk", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Verify the connection

The server uses stdio and is normally spawned by the client — no need to run it by hand. To manually confirm it starts in a terminal:

npx -y stock-sdk mcp

The process waits for JSON-RPC messages (such as initialize) on stdin. Once a client is connected, ask the model to "list available tools" to confirm the handshake succeeded.

Config file paths and field names may vary across client versions — follow each client's official docs. This page only fixes the stock-sdk mcp launch entry.
