# edgar-mcp

SEC EDGAR financial data for AI agents, exposed as an MCP stdio server.

<!-- Generated from docs/tool_manifest.yaml by scripts/render_mcp_readme.py. -->
<!-- mcp-name: io.github.henrysouchien/edgar-mcp -->

## Install

```bash
pip install edgar-mcp
```

## Configuration

| Variable | Required | Purpose |

| `EDGAR_API_URL` | no | Override the API base URL. Defaults to `https://www.edgarparser.com`. |
| `EDGAR_MCP_OUTPUT_DIR` | no | Directory for `output="file"` tool responses. |

## Runtime Notes

- This is a thin client for the hosted EDGAR API and the public SEC submissions endpoint; it does not parse filings locally.
- Missing or invalid `EDGAR_API_KEY` lets the server start, but hosted API tool calls return authentication errors; `get_issuer_submissions_meta` does not require the key.
- Large payload tools support `output="file"` and write to `EDGAR_MCP_OUTPUT_DIR` or a local fallback directory.
- API rate limits and paid-tool access are enforced by the hosted service.
