Install

Needs uv. No API key.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add yfinance-ai -- uvx yfinance-ai@latest

VS Code:

code --add-mcp '{"name":"yfinance-ai","type":"stdio","command":"uvx","args":["yfinance-ai@latest"]}'

Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and other clients, in the client's MCP config file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "yfinance-ai": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "yfinance-ai@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}

@latest picks up new releases when the client starts. Without uv: pip install yfinance-ai, then use "command": "yfinance-ai" with no args.

Listed in the MCP Registry as io.github.lkcair/yfinance-ai. Every tool is read-only.

Agent frameworks

The server runs over stdio with uvx yfinance-ai@latest, so any framework with MCP support can load all its tools.

LangChain: pip install "langchain[mcp]" langchain-anthropic

import asyncio
from langchain.agents import create_agent
from langchain.mcp import MCPAdapter

async def main():
    config = {"mcpServers": {"yfinance-ai": {
        "command": "uvx", "args": ["yfinance-ai@latest"],
    }}}
    async with MCPAdapter(config) as adapter:
        tools = await adapter.list_tools()
        agent = create_agent("claude-sonnet-5", tools)
        result = await agent.ainvoke({"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "What is Apple's P/E, and how does it compare with Microsoft and Google?"}]})
        print(result["messages"][-1].content)

asyncio.run(main())

Google ADK: pip install "google-adk[mcp]"

from google.adk.agents import LlmAgent
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool import McpToolset
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_session_manager import StdioConnectionParams
from mcp import StdioServerParameters

root_agent = LlmAgent(
    model="gemini-flash-latest",
    name="yfinance_ai",
    instruction="Answer with the yfinance-ai tools.",
    tools=[McpToolset(connection_params=StdioConnectionParams(
        server_params=StdioServerParameters(command="uvx", args=["yfinance-ai@latest"]),
        timeout=60,
    ))],
)

Strands Agents: pip install strands-agents

from mcp import stdio_client, StdioServerParameters
from strands import Agent
from strands.tools.mcp import MCPClient

yfinance_ai = MCPClient(lambda: stdio_client(StdioServerParameters(
    command="uvx", args=["yfinance-ai@latest"],
)))
agent = Agent(tools=[yfinance_ai])
agent("What is Apple's P/E, and how does it compare with Microsoft and Google?")
