SEC EDGAR MCP Server for Finance Data

Connect Claude, Codex, or any MCP-compatible workflow to source-aware EDGAR filing metadata. Built for finance research and monitoring where every answer needs a filing trail.

Source-Aware Filing Metadata

Query companies, CIKs, form types, filing dates, amendments, and cadence with records that point back to EDGAR source context.

MCP Access for Finance Workflows

Use a private-beta MCP endpoint from Claude, Codex, or another compatible client when your agent needs current filing metadata instead of pasted documents.

Bounded Query Surface

Designed for retrieval, filing history, and monitoring questions. It is not a general filing validator, investment adviser, or substitute for human review.

Example Queries

"How many 8-K filings were submitted yesterday?"
"Show me Microsoft's 10-Q filings from Q4 2025"
"List amended 10-K and 10-Q filings for Tesla in 2025"
"What's the filing cadence for JPMorgan over the last twelve months?"

Request Access

The EDGAR MCP Server is currently in private beta. Enter your email to request an API key.

Quick Start

Already have an API key? Follow these steps to connect the EDGAR MCP server to your client.
Before You Start
  • API Key — Request access above and wait for your API key via email
  • Node.js — Version 18 or higher installed on your machine
  • MCP Client — Claude CLI, Codex CLI, or Claude Desktop installed
1

Choose your MCP client

Select the client you want to configure. Each has a different config file location.
2

Open your Claude settings file

Open your Claude settings file. If it doesn't exist, create it at the path below.
~/.claude/settings.json
3

Add the EDGAR MCP server config

Copy this configuration and paste it into your config file. Replace your-api-key with the API key you received via email, and your-session-id with any identifier you like (e.g., "my-session-1").
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "edgar": {
      "type": "sse",
      "url": "https://edgar.cmdrvl.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "your-api-key",
        "MCP-Session-ID": "your-session-id"
      }
    }
  }
}
4

Restart your client

Start a new Claude CLI session. The edgar_com_query tool should now be available. Try asking: "How many 10-K filings were submitted last week?"
Using a different tool?We have instructions for Claude CLI, Codex CLI, and Claude Desktop. If you're using a different MCP-compatible client (Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, etc.), the configuration pattern is similar — you'll need to point to our SSE endpoint and include your API key in the headers. Reach out and we'll help you get set up.
