Python 3.10+ is required. Install the package via pip; a FinBrain API key is mandatory.

How do I provide my FinBrain API key?

Set `FINBRAIN_API_KEY` in the MCP client’s `env` block (recommended) or as an environment variable. Restart the client after setting the env var.

What endpoints are available?

Tools include `predictions_by_ticker`, `news_sentiment_by_ticker`, `app_ratings_by_ticker`, `analyst_ratings_by_ticker`, `house_trades_by_ticker`, `senate_trades_by_ticker`, `insider_transactions_by_ticker`, `linkedin_metrics_by_ticker`, `options_put_call`, and basic ones like `health`, `available_markets`, and `available_tickers`.

The MCP server runs locally and directly accesses FinBrain’s API with your own key. No proxying; data is fetched live from FinBrain’s cloud.
