MCP server for searching stock news using Tavily API
MCP server for searching stock news using Tavily API. Exposed over MCP by the search stock news mcp mcp server, that capability becomes something an assistant can invoke while it works, not something you go and do afterwards.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that enables AI systems to interact seamlessly with various data sources and tools, facilitating secure, two-way connections.
You will need one environment variable: TAVILY_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Before you begin, ensure you have: * Tavily API Key * Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client * Node.js (v16 or higher) * Git installed (only needed if using Git installation method)
The server ships on npm as search-stock-news-mcp, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.
This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. It is maintained by Cognitive-Stack; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
