calculate_dcf_valuation
get_extended_hours_data
get_financial_statements
get_historical_data

Retrieve historical OHLCV (Open, High, Low, Close, Volume) price data for a stock or cryptocurrency. Supports various time intervals from 1 minute to 1 month. Useful for charting and technical analysis.

calculate_indicator

Calculate technical indicators on price data for a stock or cryptocurrency. Supports RSI, MACD, SMA, EMA, Bollinger Bands, and Stochastic oscillator. Returns calculated values with timestamps and trading signals where applicable.

get_sec_form4_filings
get_insider_trades
get_13f_institutional_holdings
get_8k_material_events
analyze_news_impact
get_market_news
get_options_chain

Get options chain data for a stock including all available calls and puts with strikes, premiums, volume, open interest, and implied volatility. Useful for analyzing available options contracts and their prices.

get_earnings_calendar

Get upcoming earnings dates and historical earnings data for a stock. Earnings announcements significantly impact options pricing due to increased volatility. Returns earnings dates, estimates, and historical results.

get_dividend_info

Get dividend information for a stock including dividend rate, yield, ex-dividend date, and payout ratio. Dividends affect options pricing, especially for calls around ex-dividend dates.

calculate_greeks

get_implied_volatility

Get implied volatility (IV) data for a stock. IV represents market expectations of future volatility. Compare IV to historical volatility to identify high or low volatility environments. Returns current IV, IV by expiration, and comparison with historical volatility.

analyze_options_strategy

Analyze an options strategy to calculate max profit, max loss, break-even points, Greeks, and generate a profit/loss chart. Supports complex multi-leg strategies like spreads, straddles, iron condors, and butterflies. Helps visualize risk/reward before entering a trade.

get_13dg_ownership_changes
compare_peer_companies
get_quote

Get real-time price quote for a stock or cryptocurrency ticker. Returns current price, change, volume, market cap, and other market data. Examples: AAPL (Apple), BTC-USD (Bitcoin), MSFT (Microsoft).

get_quote_batch

Get real-time quotes for multiple stock or cryptocurrency tickers efficiently in a single request. Returns quotes for all symbols with error handling for invalid symbols.

search_ticker

Search for stock or cryptocurrency ticker symbols by company name, keyword, or partial symbol. Returns matching tickers with their full names, exchanges, and types. Useful for finding the correct ticker symbol when you know the company name.

Tool annotations

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

26/26 tools missing one or more hints — get_analyst_ratings (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); calculate_dcf_valuation (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_extended_hours_data (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +23 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

License file

No license file

Add a LICENSE file (MIT, Apache-2.0, etc.).

Tool test coverage

Only 2/26 tools referenced in tests (8%)

Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.

Production dependencies are patched

1 critical, 5 high severity in production deps — fast-xml-parser@4.5.3 (critical), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.25.2 (high)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

Dev dependencies

1 critical/high in dev-only deps (does not ship to users)

Upgrade dev dependencies when convenient.

Dependency freshness

2/10 production deps stale: black-scholes@2022-06-13 (4.3y), technicalindicators@2023-07-12 (3.2y)

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
