Access and checks
How we reviewExtended accessThe tool runs code or makes network calls and only reads external data.
- Calls an external API with the user's key
This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.
What it does
The server exposes Alpha Vantage API functions as MCP tools: daily and intraday price series, technical indicators such as RSI, company overviews and other market data. The agent calls a function by name with parameters such as a ticker. The recommended connection is remote over OAuth, where you enter the key on an authorization page. A local launch via uvx is also available.
Who it is for. For analysts and developers who want the agent to use market data instead of answering from memory.
Good fit when
- You need current or historical stock prices for analysis
- You need an indicator or a chart for a ticker
- You need a company fundamentals overview
Not a fit when
- You need Moscow Exchange data and Russian issuers
- You need trading or order execution

Requires an Alpha Vantage key; the free key has request limits. The server only provides data and is not financial advice. The key-in-URL option is deprecated. Availability from Russia is unverified.
How to disable. Disconnect the connector in client settings or remove the alphavantage block from the MCP config.
FAQ
How do I rotate the key?

Step-by-step instructions follow for chat clients, agent platforms and IDEs, including Claude, ChatGPT, Azure AI Foundry and Hermes Agent.
