Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted financial-news MCP server that lets an assistant search scored market news, insider filings, earnings and macro events for US tickers.

What you can do
Search and retrieve news by query, ticker, category or date, plus trending articles and multi-publisher stories with per-ticker reads and relevance scores (1–10). Fetch single articles and citation-ready search/fetch results for research clients. Review SEC Form 4 insider-trade news and clusters of open-market insider buying. Read filing-verified earnings summaries with next report dates, and scheduled macro releases such as CPI and FOMC with follow-up coverage. Track market or watchlist news activity and tone via radar, and list, subscribe to or unsubscribe from ticker alerts.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs current, filtered market news, insider-trading signals, earnings reads or macro calendars for US stocks, ETFs, crypto and foreign listings, for example for research briefs or watchlist monitoring. Not intended for trading advice or full article text.
Requirements
Remote Streamable HTTP endpoint; nothing to self-host. OAuth 2.1 login through a compatible client (browser-based, no API key to paste); headless clients can send an API key as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Free tier limited to 20 requests per minute and 100 per day; paid tiers cost $2.99 or $9.99 per month.
Before you install
Alert tools write to your own subscriptions, though all other tools are read-only. Paid tiers require payment. Headless API keys must be kept out of URLs. Responses contain AI summaries and descriptive scores that are not predictions or buy/sell advice, and full article bodies are never served.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open AlphAI in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.makeev%2Falphai-mcp/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

AlphAI MCP server

[License: MIT] [Official MCP Registry] [Smithery] [mcp.so] [Glama] [Mentioned in Awesome MCP Servers]

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for financial news, stock market sentiment and SEC Form 4 insider trading data — built for AI agents and trading bots. Hosted at mcp.alphai.io, no install, OAuth (no API key to paste), free tier 20 req/min and 100 req/day.

Every story is enriched with per-ticker analysis, a category (14 buckets), and a 1–10 relevance score, so an agent can filter to what actually matters before spending a reasoning token.

This repo is the public home + server.json manifest of the hosted AlphAI MCP server (the listing on Smithery, Glama, mcp.so, the MCP Registry and Awesome MCP Servers). The product is AlphAI — a financial-news platform built for AI agents. There is nothing to self-host: to use it, just connect to https://mcp.alphai.io/mcp.

Connect

The server speaks Streamable HTTP at https://mcp.alphai.io/mcp. Add it to any OAuth-capable MCP client. Claude Code:

bash
claude mcp add --transport http alphai https://mcp.alphai.io/mcp

Connecting opens a browser for OAuth 2.1 (DCR + PKCE) — a login, no key to copy-paste. ChatGPT, Claude Desktop / claude.ai, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and Gemini connect the same way. Or use the one-click listing on Smithery.

JSON config clients (Cline, Cursor and similar):

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "alphai": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.alphai.io/mcp"    }  }}

Radar refreshes each minute. Delays apply to the complete snapshot, including supporting headlines; collection and enrichment add processing time. Its descriptive scores are not predictions or confirmed alerts. Radar accepts up to 100 rows per call on every plan, with no separate ticker allowance; saved watchlists retain their existing limits (Free 10 companies, paid unlimited).

Authentication

OAuth 2.1 with Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591) and PKCE per the MCP authorization spec. Compatible clients discover the OAuth metadata automatically — no manual API key setup. Both tool discovery (tools/list) and calls require authentication. Headless clients can use the same API key as the REST API in an Authorization: Bearer ak_live_… header; never put a key in the URL. OAuth and API keys have tool parity.

Notes

  • This is a hosted server — to use it, connect to https://mcp.alphai.io/mcp; there is nothing to self-host. This repo is the catalog home + server.json manifest.
  • News, not advice. The tools summarize reporting; they don't give buy/sell calls.
  • raw_text (full article bodies) is never served — copyright. Responses carry titles, AI summaries, per-ticker analysis, categories and relevance scores.
