About

Enables access to stock and financial data from Alpha Vantage, including stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies, commodities, and technical indicators, through natural language queries.

README

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for accessing Alpha Vantage stock and financial data.

Features

  • Complete support for all Alpha Vantage API endpoints including stocks, economic indicators, technical indicators, forex, cryptocurrencies, and commodities

  • For reduced context window usage, certain endpoints are organized under same tool (technical indicators, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies)

API Organization

To provide a more efficient experience and reduce context window usage:

  • Technical Indicators: Consolidated into 5 unified endpoints (moving averages, momentum, volatility, volume, cycle) with type parameters
  • Commodities: Unified into a single endpoint with commodity_type parameter
  • Forex: Time series endpoints consolidated with a series_type parameter
  • Cryptocurrencies: Time series endpoints consolidated with a series_type parameter

This organization maintains full functionality while significantly reducing the number of tools required.
