FAQ from SEC EDGAR
What SEC data can I access?
You can search filings (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, S-1, Form 4), read full text (truncated at ~80K chars), pull XBRL financial facts, classify 8-K events, get company metadata, and retrieve insider trades (team+ tier).
How is this different from the SEC EDGAR website directly?
This is a hosted MCP server that provides a programmatic, structured interface for AI agents, with caching, rate limiting, and authentication built in, rather than requiring direct scraping of the SEC site.
What are the runtime and hosting requirements?
The server runs on Cloudflare Workers (V8 isolates, global edge). No local installation is required—just point your MCP client at the hosted endpoint via HTTP/JSON-RPC 2.0.
How does authentication work?
Paid tiers require a Bearer token API key (Authorization: Bearer mck_<key>). Free tier callers are anonymous and limited to 100 calls/month per IP. API keys are obtained via Dodo Payments checkout.
Are there usage limits?
Yes. Free tier: 100 calls/month, 10/min. Solo: 2,000/month, 60/min. Team: 10,000/month, 200/min. Pro: 50,000/month, 600/min. Some insider-trade tools require Team+ tier.
