Installation

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8 or higher
• EODHD API key (sign up at eodhd.com)

Setup

1. Clone and setup the project:

# Clone the repository
git clone <repository-url>
cd eodhd-mcp-server

# Create virtual environment
python -m venv venv

# Activate virtual environment
source venv/bin/activate  # On macOS/Linux
# or
venv\\Scripts\\activate     # On Windows

# 2024-06-28 16:04:42,657 - eodhd_mcp_server.server - INFO - Starting EODHD MCP Server...
# 2024-06-28 16:04:42,657 - eodhd_mcp_server.server - INFO - Configuration loaded - API key configured: True

Usage

Running the MCP Server

The server runs as a stdio-based MCP server:

eodhd-mcp-server

Integration with Cursor

Add the server to your Cursor MCP configuration (~/.cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eodhd": {
      "command": "/path/to/your/project/venv/bin/eodhd-mcp-server",
      "args": [],
      "cwd": "/path/to/your/project/eodhd-mcp-server",
      "env": {
        "EODHD_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here",
        "EODHD_BASE_URL": "https://eodhd.com/api",
        "REQUEST_TIMEOUT": "30",
        "MAX_RETRIES": "3",
        "RATE_LIMIT_DELAY": "0.1",
        "DEBUG": "false"
      }
    }
  }
}

Important Configuration Notes:

• Replace /path/to/your/project/ with your actual project path
• Use the absolute path to the eodhd-mcp-server executable in your virtual environment
• Set the cwd (current working directory) to your project root
• Include all necessary environment variables in the env section
• Replace your_api_key_here with your actual EODHD API key

Alternative: Using .env file If you prefer to use a .env file (recommended for security), you can simplify the configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eodhd": {
      "command": "/path/to/your/project/venv/bin/eodhd-mcp-server",
      "args": [],
      "cwd": "/path/to/your/project/eodhd-mcp-server"
    }
  }
}

Make sure your .env file contains all required environment variables.

Example Usage in Cursor

Once the MCP server is configured and running (green icon), you can use the tools in Cursor:

Stock Price Data:

• "Get AAPL stock price for the last 30 days"
• "Show me Tesla's stock performance this year"

Earnings Information:

• "Show me earnings announcements for this week"
• "Get AAPL's past 10 earnings results"

Fundamental Analysis:

• "Get Microsoft's fundamental data"
• "Show me growth rates for NVDA"

Index Components:

• "What are the components of the S&P 500?"
• "Show me the Russell 2000 holdings"

The server will automatically handle the API calls and return formatted, readable results.

Configuration

Environment Variables

• EODHD_API_KEY: Your EODHD API key (required)
• EODHD_BASE_URL: Base URL for EODHD API (default: https://eodhd.com/api)
• REQUEST_TIMEOUT: Request timeout in seconds (default: 30)
• MAX_RETRIES: Maximum retry attempts (default: 3)
• RATE_LIMIT_DELAY: Delay between requests in seconds (default: 0.1)
• DEBUG: Enable debug logging (default: false)

API Key

Get your free API key from EODHD:

Troubleshooting

Red Icon in Cursor (Server Not Working)

If you see a red icon next to the EODHD MCP server in Cursor:

1. Check Configuration Path: Ensure the command path points to the correct location:

   # Find the correct path
   source venv/bin/activate
   which eodhd-mcp-server
   

2. Verify Environment Variables: Make sure your .env file exists and contains:

   EODHD_API_KEY=your_actual_api_key
   

3. Test Server Manually: Try running the server directly:

   source venv/bin/activate
   eodhd-mcp-server
   

4. Check Cursor Configuration: Ensure your ~/.cursor/mcp.json includes:

   • Absolute path to the executable
   • Correct working directory (cwd)
   • Environment variables or .env file access

5. Restart Cursor: After configuration changes, completely restart Cursor.

Common Issues

• API Key Issues: Verify your EODHD API key is valid and has sufficient quota
• Path Issues: Use absolute paths in Cursor configuration
• Permission Issues: Ensure the executable has proper permissions
• Virtual Environment: Make sure you're using the correct virtual environment path

Support

For issues and questions:

1. Check the EODHD API documentation
2. Review error messages in debug mode (DEBUG=true)
3. Use the troubleshooting guide above
4. Open an issue in the repository
