You can find instruments by ticker, name or ISIN, and list equities, ETFs, indices, currencies and crypto pairs matching filters such as sector, industry, country, exchange, market cap tier, ETF category or issuer. It holds classifications only, not prices or fundamentals.

Results are paginated and ordered by relevance. ## What it can do - Find symbols by ticker, name or ISIN across all asset classes - List equities by country, sector, industry, exchange and market cap tier - List ETFs by category, issuer, currency and exchange - Browse market indices, currency pairs and crypto pairs - Look up valid filter values before filtering - Page through large result sets ## Tools (8) - `equities`: List listed companies filtered by country, sector, industry, exchange, market cap tier or query.

Run this in a terminal, in your project folder: ```bash claude mcp add --transport http finance-database https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp ``` 2. Start Claude Code and type `/mcp`. **finance-database** should show as connected. Add `--scope user` to make it available in every project, not just this one. ### Claude Desktop 1. Open **Customize → Connectors**, click **+ Add**, then **Add custom connector**. 2. Name it **Finance Database** and paste this URL: ```url https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp ``` 3. Click **Add**. Its tools appear in the chat’s tools menu. Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too. ### claude.ai 1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you: [Add to claude.ai]() (opens connector settings) 2. Check that the URL reads `https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp` and click **Add**. 3. Turn it on in a chat from the tools menu. Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under **Organization settings → Connectors**. ### ChatGPT 1. On chatgpt.com, go to **Plugins**, select **+**, then **Add custom MCP server**. 2. Enter a name for the server. 3. Under **Connection**, paste `https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp` as the server URL, then for authentication choose **No authentication**. 4. Check **I understand and want to continue**, then select **Create as a plugin**. Whether you can add a custom MCP server depends on your ChatGPT plan and your workspace permissions (in Business workspaces, admins and owners can). ### Cursor [Add to Cursor]() (opens Cursor) Or add it by hand to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (all projects) or `.cursor/mcp.json` (this project): `mcp.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "finance-database": { "url": "https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp" } } } ``` ### VS Code [Install in VS Code]() (opens VS Code) Or from a terminal: ```bash code --add-mcp '{"name":"finance-database","type":"http","url":"https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp"}' ``` Or commit it to the repo in `.vscode/mcp.json`: `.vscode/mcp.json`: ```json { "servers": { "finance-database": { "type": "http", "url": "https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp" } } } ``` ### Devin Desktop 1. Add it to `~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json` (macOS and Linux) or `%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json` (Windows): `mcp_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "finance-database": { "serverUrl": "https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp" } } } ``` 2. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade. Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads `serverUrl` (or `url`) for remote servers. ### Codex ```bash codex mcp add finance-database --url https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp ``` Or edit `~/.codex/config.toml` directly: `config.toml`: ```toml [mcp_servers.finance-database] url = "https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp" ``` ### Gemini CLI ```bash gemini mcp add --transport http finance-database https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp ``` This adds it to the current project. Add `-s user` to use it everywhere. ### Any client Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: `serverUrl` in Devin Desktop, `httpUrl` in Gemini CLI’s settings file. ```json { "mcpServers": { "finance-database": { "type": "http", "url": "https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp" } } } ``` Zed puts servers under `context_servers` in its settings. Cline needs `"type": "streamableHttp"`, or it assumes SSE. Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with `npx -y mcp-remote https://financedatabase.jeroenbouma.com/mcp`. ## Recent changes - 2026-11-14 17:29 UTC: Tracking started: 8 tools read. Source: automatic check.
