An MCP server for querying SEC EDGAR financial data — company info, financial statements, XBRL metrics, filings, insider trading, and more. Built
Most developer tooling work still happens through a UI a human drives. Secedgarmcp MCP server moves it into the conversation instead. An MCP server for querying SEC EDGAR financial data — company info, financial statements, XBRL metrics, filings, insider trading, and more. Built with Go.
Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
The server publishes 3 tools. What each one is for:
Company — The Company tool exposed by this serverFilings — view_filing accepts either a direct url (primary-document URL from get_recent_filings) or a form_type to auto-resolve the latest filing. It stripsFinancials — The Financials tool exposed by this serverConfiguration is passed through the environment: SEC_EDGAR_USER_AGENT. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
view_filing: native (non-Docker) server + w3m + ghostty or konsole terminalPlenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Secedgarmcp's toolset — Company, Filings, Financials — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by chinmaykhachane; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
