Server Architecture

This MCP server leverages toolception - a dynamic MCP server toolkit for runtime toolset management with Fastify transport and meta-tools. Toolception provides complete server orchestration including HTTP transport, session management, and tool lifecycle.

Key Features:

Powered by Toolception: Uses toolception for server orchestration and dynamic tool management
Client-level Caching: Toolception's ClientResourceCache maintains isolated sessions per client with LRU/TTL eviction
Session Isolation: Each client gets their own MCP server instance with independent tool state
Stateful Management: Sessions maintain their state across multiple requests via toolception's session management
Mode Enforcement: Server-level configurations can override session-level settings
HTTP-based Protocol: Communicates via HTTP with JSON-RPC formatted messages using Fastify transport
Dynamic Tool Management: Tools can be loaded/unloaded at runtime per session using toolception's DynamicToolManager

Transport & Client Compatibility

Important: This server uses HTTP/SSE transport only (no stdio). See compatibility notes below.

Client	Support	How to Connect
Claude.ai	Yes	Settings > Connectors > Add remote server
Claude Desktop	Yes	Settings > Connectors (NOT `claude add` or config.json)
Claude Mobile	Yes	Uses servers added via claude.ai
Smithery/Glama	Yes	Via registry with server card
Custom HTTP	Yes	Include `mcp-client-id` header

Claude Desktop users: Do NOT use claude add <url> or edit claude_desktop_config.json - these expect stdio transport. Instead, add as a remote server via Settings > Connectors.

See Anthropic's Remote MCP Server Guide.

Request Flow:

Client Request → HTTP POST to / endpoint
Session Management → Toolception creates or retrieves session based on client ID (caching via ClientResourceCache)
Mode Resolution → Server determines operational mode (Dynamic/Static/Legacy)
Tool Registration → Toolception's ModuleResolver lazy-loads tools based on resolved mode
Request Processing → MCP request is processed with available tools via toolception's orchestrator
Response → JSON-RPC response sent back to client

Available HTTP Endpoints:

POST /mcp - Main MCP protocol endpoint (JSON-RPC formatted messages)
- Requires session initialization - see Session Management
GET /ping - Simple ping endpoint (returns {"status": "ok"})
GET /healthcheck - Comprehensive health check endpoint
GET /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json - MCP server card for auto-discovery (SEP-1649)

Configuration & Mode Enforcement

The server supports multiple configuration methods with a clear precedence hierarchy to ensure predictable behavior.

Understanding Server Modes

The server supports three operational modes. The mode you use depends on your deployment scenario:

Using Our Hosted Instance (Railway)

Fixed Mode: Dynamic mode (5 meta-tools)
Configuration: Pass FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN in session config
Use Case: Quick start without deployment
Access: Direct HTTP or via MCP registries

Self-Hosting Your Own Instance

Your Choice: Select any mode via environment variables or CLI arguments
Configuration: Set at server startup
Use Case: Full control over tools and configuration

Available Modes

1. 🔀 Dynamic Mode (`DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=true`)

Starts with only 5 meta-tools:

enable_toolset - Enable a toolset by name
disable_toolset - Disable a toolset by name
list_toolsets - List available toolsets with active status
describe_toolset - Describe a toolset with details and tools
list_tools - List currently registered tool names

When to Use:

✅ Using our hosted instance (default)
✅ Building flexible workflows where tool needs change
✅ Minimizing initial overhead
✅ Multi-tenant deployments where users need different tools

Our Hosted Instance: This is the default mode

Self-Hosted: Set via DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=true or --dynamic-tool-discovery

2. 🔧 Static Mode (`FMP_TOOL_SETS=search,company,quotes`)

Pre-loads specific toolsets at session creation. All specified tools available immediately.

When to Use:

✅ Self-hosted with known, consistent tool requirements
✅ Predictable usage patterns
✅ Faster tool access (no runtime loading)

Our Hosted Instance: Not available (we use dynamic mode)

Self-Hosted: Set via FMP_TOOL_SETS=search,company,quotes or --fmp-tool-sets=search,company,quotes

3. 📚 Legacy Mode (no specific configuration)

Loads all 253+ tools at session creation. Maximum compatibility with all features.

When to Use:

✅ Self-hosted with full feature access requirements
✅ No configuration complexity needed
✅ Not concerned about initial load time

Our Hosted Instance: Not available (we use dynamic mode)

Self-Hosted: Default when no mode is configured, or set DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=false

Configuration Precedence (Self-Hosted Only)

When self-hosting, configuration follows this strict precedence hierarchy:

🥇 CLI Arguments (highest priority)
   ↓
🥈 Environment Variables
   ↓
🥉 Session Configuration (lowest priority)

Note: Our hosted instance mode configuration is fixed to dynamic tool exploration and cannot be changed via session config.

⚠️ Important Mode Enforcement Behavior (Self-Hosted)

When server-level configurations are set (CLI arguments or environment variables), they override all session-level configurations for ALL sessions. This ensures consistent behavior across the entire server instance.

Example Override Scenario:

# Server started with CLI argument
npm run dev -- --dynamic-tool-discovery

# ALL session requests will use Dynamic Mode, regardless of session config
# Session config like {"FMP_TOOL_SETS": "search,company"} will be IGNORED

Configuration Methods:

CLI Arguments (Server-level - overrides everything)

npm run dev -- --fmp-token=TOKEN --dynamic-tool-discovery
npm run dev -- --fmp-token=TOKEN --fmp-tool-sets=search,company,quotes
npm run dev -- --port=4000 --fmp-token=TOKEN

Environment Variables (Server-level - overrides session configs)

DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=true npm run dev
FMP_TOOL_SETS=search,company,quotes npm run dev

Session Configuration (Session-level - via HTTP query parameter)

# Base64 encoded JSON config in query parameter
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp?config=eyJEWU5BTUlDX1RPT0xfRElTQ09WRVJZIjoidHJ1ZSJ9"

⚠️ Configuration Warnings

Server-level modes are GLOBAL: They affect all sessions on the server instance
Session configs are IGNORED when server-level modes are active
No mixing: You cannot have different modes for different sessions when server-level enforcement is active
Restart required: Changing server-level configurations requires server restart

Selective Tool Loading

While MCP clients can filter tools automatically, large tool sets may impact performance. To optimize your experience, you can specify which tool categories to load instead of loading all 253 tools at once:

Available Tool Sets

Tool Set	Description	Example Tools
`search`	Search & Directory	Search stocks, company lookup, symbol directories
`company`	Company Profile & Info	Company profiles, executives, employee count
`quotes`	Real-time Quotes	Live stock prices, market data, price changes
`statements`	Financial Statements	Income statements, balance sheets, cash flow, ratios
`calendar`	Financial Calendar	Earnings calendar, dividends, IPOs, stock splits
`charts`	Price Charts & History	Historical prices, technical charts, market movements
`news`	Financial News	Market news, press releases, financial articles
`analyst`	Analyst Coverage	Price targets, ratings, analyst estimates
`market-performance`	Market Performance	Sector performance, gainers, losers, most active
`insider-trades`	Insider Trading	Corporate insider activity, ownership changes
`institutional`	Institutional Holdings	13F filings, fund holdings, institutional ownership
`indexes`	Market Indexes	S&P 500, NASDAQ, Dow Jones, index constituents
`economics`	Economic Data	Treasury rates, GDP, inflation, economic indicators
`crypto`	Cryptocurrency	Crypto prices, market data, digital assets
`forex`	Foreign Exchange	Currency pairs, exchange rates, forex data
`commodities`	Commodities	Gold, oil, agricultural products, futures
`etf-funds`	ETFs & Mutual Funds	Fund holdings, performance, fund information

`earnings`	Earnings & Transcripts	Earnings reports, call transcripts
`dcf`	DCF Valuation	Discounted cash flow models, valuations
`bulk`	Bulk Data	Large-scale data downloads for analysis

Dynamic Toolset Management (BETA)

🚧 This feature is currently in BETA. API and behavior may change in future versions.

The Dynamic Toolset Management feature allows you to enable and disable tool categories at runtime instead of pre-configuring them at startup. This provides more flexibility and can help optimize performance by loading only the tools you need when you need them.

How It Works

When dynamic toolset management is enabled, each session starts with only 5 meta-tools:

enable_toolset - Enable a toolset by name
disable_toolset - Disable a toolset by name (state only)
list_toolsets - List available toolsets with active status and definitions
describe_toolset - Describe a toolset with definition, active status and tools
list_tools - List currently registered tool names (best effort)

AI assistants can then use these meta-tools to dynamically load and unload specific tool categories as needed for different tasks within their session.

Configuration Options

Server-Level Configuration (Affects All Sessions)

Command Line Arguments:

# Enable dynamic toolset management for all sessions
npm run dev -- --fmp-token=YOUR_TOKEN --dynamic-tool-discovery

# Production deployment
node dist/index.js --fmp-token=YOUR_TOKEN --dynamic-tool-discovery

Environment Variables:

# Set environment variable
export DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=true
export FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN
npm run dev

# Or inline
DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=true FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN npm start

Docker:

# docker-compose.yml
version: "3.8"
services:
  fmp-mcp:
    build: .
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"
    environment:
      - FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN=YOUR_FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN
      - DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=true # Enable for all sessions

Session-Level Configuration (When No Server Override)

When no server-level dynamic mode is set, individual sessions can request dynamic mode:

# Base64 encode: {"DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY":"true"}
CONFIG_BASE64=$(echo -n '{"DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY":"true"}' | base64)
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp?config=${CONFIG_BASE64}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize",...}'

Example Workflow

Start server with dynamic mode:
```
DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=true npm start
```

AI assistant initializes session and gets meta-tools:

// Response includes only 5 meta-tools:
{
  "tools": [
    { "name": "enable_toolset", "description": "Enable a toolset by name" },
    { "name": "disable_toolset", "description": "Disable a toolset by name (state only)" },
    { "name": "list_toolsets", "description": "List available toolsets with active status and definitions" },
    { "name": "describe_toolset", "description": "Describe a toolset with definition, active status and tools" },
    { "name": "list_tools", "description": "List currently registered tool names (best effort)" }
  ]
}

AI assistant enables needed toolsets:

// Enable search toolset
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":2,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"enable_toolset","arguments":{"toolset":"search"}}}

// Enable quotes toolset
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":3,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"enable_toolset","arguments":{"toolset":"quotes"}}}

AI assistant uses the enabled tools:

// Now can use search and quotes tools
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":4,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"searchSymbol","arguments":{"query":"AAPL"}}}
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":5,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"getQuote","arguments":{"symbol":"AAPL"}}}

AI assistant can disable unused toolsets:

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 6,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "disable_toolset",
    "arguments": { "toolset": "search" }
  }
}

Benefits

Performance: Start faster with fewer tools loaded initially per session
Flexibility: Load only the tools needed for current tasks
Resource Efficiency: Reduce memory usage by disabling unused toolsets per session
Task-Oriented: Perfect for AI assistants that work on specific financial analysis tasks
Session Isolation: Each session can have different active toolsets

Important Update: Smithery Hosting Changes (March 2026)

On March 1st, 2026, Smithery discontinued their free hosting service. As a result:

✅ Our hosted instance is still available - We deployed our own server to Railway and expose it via Smithery
✅ No server setup required - Just connect and provide your FMP API key
❌ No Smithery-hosted version - The server runs on our infrastructure, not Smithery's

Using Our Hosted Instance

Server Configuration:

Mode: Dynamic (5 meta-tools only)
Endpoint: https://financial-modeling-prep-mcp-server-production.up.railway.app/mcp
API Key: You must provide your FMP API key in session configuration

Session Configuration Requirements:

You must pass your FMP API key in the session configuration. The server does not have an API key configured at the environment level.

Example Session Configuration:

{
  "FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your_fmp_api_key_here"
}

Alternative Configurations:

// Explicitly request dynamic mode (already the default)
{
  "FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your_fmp_api_key_here",
  "DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY": "true"
}

// Note: Static/Legacy modes are NOT SUPPORTED on our hosted instance
// Server-level configuration overrides session requests
{
  "FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your_fmp_api_key_here",
  "FMP_TOOL_SETS": "search,company,quotes"  // This will be ignored
}

Important Notes:

🔒 Your API key is required - We don't store API keys on the server
🚀 Dynamic mode only - Our instance is configured for dynamic mode
🔧 Meta-tools available - Use them to load toolsets as needed
💡 Session isolation - Your tools and state are isolated from other users

Example System Prompts

The following system prompts are designed to help AI assistants effectively use this MCP server for financial analysis tasks. Choose the appropriate prompt based on your server configuration mode.

For Dynamic Toolset Mode

You are an expert financial analyst AI with access to comprehensive market data tools.

CORE RULES:
- Always use tools for current market data; never rely on outdated information or estimates
- Check conversation history to avoid redundant tool calls
- Provide concise, data-driven responses
- Always include: "This is not financial advice"

DYNAMIC TOOLSET MANAGEMENT:
Your tools are organized into categories ("toolsets") that must be enabled before use.

Available toolsets: search, company, quotes, statements, calendar, charts, news, analyst, market-performance, insider-trades, institutional, indexes, economics, crypto, forex, commodities, etf-funds, esg, technical-indicators, senate, sec-filings, earnings, dcf, bulk

EXECUTION WORKFLOW:
1. DISCOVER: Use list_toolsets to see available toolset categories and their status
2. ENABLE: Use enable_toolset for required categories based on the user's query
3. VERIFY: Use list_tools to confirm the tools you need are available
4. EXECUTE: Call specific tools from enabled toolsets
5. CLEAN UP: Consider disabling unused toolsets when switching to different analysis types

FAILURE PROTOCOL:
If tools fail repeatedly or data is unavailable, state: "I cannot find the requested information with the available tools" and stop attempting.

Begin each analysis by enabling the appropriate toolsets for the user's request.

For Static Toolset Mode

You are an expert financial analyst AI with access to comprehensive market data tools.

CORE RULES:
- Always use tools for current market data; never rely on outdated information or estimates
- Check conversation history to avoid redundant tool calls
- Provide concise, data-driven responses
- Always include: "This is not financial advice"

STATIC TOOLSET CONFIGURATION:
Your tools are pre-loaded and immediately available. All configured toolsets remain active throughout the session.

EXECUTION WORKFLOW:
1. IDENTIFY: Determine which tools from your available toolsets best address the user's query
2. EXECUTE: Call the appropriate tools directly - no toolset management needed
3. ANALYZE: Process the data and provide insights based on the results

TOOL CATEGORIES:
Your available tools span multiple categories including company profiles, financial statements, market quotes, technical analysis, news sentiment, and economic indicators. Use the most relevant tools for each analysis.

FAILURE PROTOCOL:
If tools fail repeatedly or data is unavailable, state: "I cannot find the requested information with the available tools" and stop attempting.

Proceed directly to analysis using your available tools based on the user's request.

Usage Tips

Dynamic Mode: Best for exploratory analysis where tool requirements change frequently. The AI assistant will manage toolsets based on the current task.
Static Mode: Best for consistent, predictable workflows where the same types of analysis are performed repeatedly.
Legacy Mode: Use the Static Mode prompt when all tools are pre-loaded (default configuration).

Human-Friendly Capabilities Prompt

This server provides a human-friendly prompt to list capabilities in one shot.

Name: list_mcp_assets
Output sections: Server Capabilities, Prompts, Tools (mode-aware), Resources (health snapshot), Quick Start
Exposed only as an MCP prompt (no tool alias)

List assets via prompts

# 1) Initialize (example: dynamic mode session)
CONFIG_BASE64=$(echo -n '{"DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY":"true"}' | base64)
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp?config=${CONFIG_BASE64}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "initialize",
    "params": { "protocolVersion": "2024-11-05", "clientInfo": {"name": "client", "version": "1.0.0"}, "capabilities": {} }
  }'

# 2) List prompts
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp?config=${CONFIG_BASE64}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":2,"method":"prompts/list","params":{}}'

# 3) Get the capabilities prompt
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp?config=${CONFIG_BASE64}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":3,"method":"prompts/get","params":{"name":"list_mcp_assets","arguments":{}}}'

Notes:

The Tools section adapts to the effective mode (Dynamic/Static/Legacy). In legacy mode, it summarizes categories instead of listing all 250+ tools.
In Static mode, toolsets shown are the authoritative list from the server’s mode enforcer (single source of truth). Session FMP_TOOL_SETS may request Static mode, but server-level configuration controls the final toolsets.
The Resources section includes a lightweight health snapshot (uptime, memory summary, version, mode).

Making HTTP Requests

The server exposes a Model Context Protocol endpoint at /mcp that accepts JSON-RPC formatted requests. Each request can include optional session configuration via query parameters.

Endpoint Format

POST http://localhost:8080/mcp[?config=BASE64_ENCODED_CONFIG]

Required Headers

Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json, text/event-stream
mcp-client-id: <your-client-id>

Session Management and Headers

IMPORTANT: This server uses the MCP Streamable HTTP transport, which requires session management via headers.

Required Headers for Session Persistence

Header	When Required	Description
`mcp-client-id`	All requests	Unique client identifier for session routing and caching
`mcp-session-id`	After `initialize`	Session ID returned from `initialize` request
`Content-Type`	All requests	Must be `application/json`
`Accept`	All requests	Must include `application/json, text/event-stream`

Critical: The mcp-client-id header is required for session persistence. Without it, each request creates an anonymous client that is NOT cached, causing "Session not found or expired" errors on subsequent requests.

Session Initialization Flow

First Request - Initialize:

# Generate a unique client ID (once per client instance)
CLIENT_ID="my-app-$(date +%s)"

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -H "mcp-client-id: $CLIENT_ID" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "initialize",
    "params": {
      "protocolVersion": "2024-11-05",
      "clientInfo": {"name": "my-client", "version": "1.0.0"},
      "capabilities": {}
    }
  }'

Server Response Includes:

Header: mcp-session-id: <unique-session-id>
This session ID identifies your isolated server instance

Subsequent Requests - Include Both Session ID and Client ID:

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -H "mcp-client-id: $CLIENT_ID" \
  -H "mcp-session-id: <session-id-from-initialize>" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 2,
    "method": "tools/list",
    "params": {}
  }'

Required Headers: Both mcp-client-id and mcp-session-id

Session Behavior

Isolated State: Each session has its own tool state, enabled toolsets, and configuration
Session Persistence: Sessions are maintained across requests via the mcp-session-id header
Client Caching: Clients are cached by mcp-client-id for efficient bundle reuse
Session Expiration: Sessions may expire after inactivity (handled by toolception's LRU/TTL cache)

Error Without Required Headers

If you forget to include the required headers, you'll receive:

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "error": {
    "code": -32000,
    "message": "Session not found or expired"
  },
  "id": null
}

Solution:

Generate a unique mcp-client-id for your client instance
Include mcp-client-id in ALL requests (including initialize)
Include the returned mcp-session-id in all requests AFTER initialize

Session Configuration

Session configurations are passed as Base64-encoded JSON in the config query parameter.

Connecting to Our Hosted Instance

When connecting to our hosted instance (directly or via MCP registries), you must provide your FMP API key:

# Configuration: {"FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN":"your_fmp_api_key_here"}
CONFIG_BASE64=$(echo -n '{"FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN":"your_fmp_api_key_here"}' | base64)

# Make request to our hosted instance
curl -X POST "https://financial-modeling-prep-mcp-server-production.up.railway.app/mcp?config=${CONFIG_BASE64}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2024-11-05","clientInfo":{"name":"client","version":"1.0.0"},"capabilities":{}}}'

Note: Our hosted instance runs in dynamic mode. Static/legacy mode configurations will be ignored.

Self-Hosting Session Configuration

Session configuration only supports FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN override. Server mode and toolsets are configured at server startup only.

API Key Override (if not set server-side):

# Configuration: {"FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN":"your_key"}
CONFIG_BASE64=$(echo -n '{"FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN":"your_key"}' | base64)

Note: Mode selection (DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY, FMP_TOOL_SETS) must be configured at server startup via environment variables or CLI arguments, not per-session.

          },
          "required": ["name"]
        }
      },
      {
        "name": "disable_toolset",

      }
    ]
  }
}

3. Enable a Toolset (Dynamic Mode)

CONFIG_BASE64=$(echo -n '{"DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY":"true"}' | base64)
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp?config=${CONFIG_BASE64}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
      "name": "enable_toolset",
      "arguments": {
        "toolset": "search"
      }
    }
  }'

4. Call a Financial Tool

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 4,
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
      "name": "searchSymbol",
      "arguments": {

      "name": "getQuote",
      "arguments": {
        "symbol": "AAPL"
      }
    }
  }'

Session and Client Behavior

Session Persistence: Sessions are cached by clientId (from mcp-client-id header)
Tool State: In dynamic mode, enabled/disabled toolsets persist for the same clientId across requests
Isolation: Sessions don't interfere with each other's tool configurations
Caching: Client storage (LRU + TTL) maintains one McpServer/DynamicToolsetManager per clientId
Session Config: Only FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN can be overridden per-session via query param

Error Handling

Common error responses:

// Invalid configuration
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "error": {
    "code": -32000,
    "message": "Bad Request: Invalid configuration"
  },
  "id": null
}

// Tool not available
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "error": {
    "code": -32601,
    "message": "Tool not found: toolName"
  },
  "id": 1
}

// Missing required parameters
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "error": {
    "code": -32602,
    "message": "Missing required parameter: symbol"
  },
  "id": 2
}

Available Tools

⚠️ Important: Mode Enforcement Behavior

Server-Level Configurations Override Session Configurations:

When CLI arguments (--dynamic-tool-discovery, --fmp-tool-sets) are used, they apply to ALL sessions

When environment variables (DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY, FMP_TOOL_SETS) are set, they apply to ALL sessions

Session-level configurations via query parameters are IGNORED when server-level modes are active

This ensures consistent behavior across all sessions on a server instance

Configuration Precedence: CLI Arguments > Environment Variables > Session Configuration

Example: If server started with --dynamic-tool-discovery, ALL sessions will use dynamic mode even if they request {"FMP_TOOL_SETS":"search,company"} in their session config.

Development Setup

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/imbenrabi/Financial-Modeling-Prep-MCP-Server
cd Financial-Modeling-Prep-MCP-Server

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the project
npm run build

# Run in development mode with your API key
FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_api_key npm run dev

# Or specify the API key directly via CLI argument
npm run dev -- --fmp-token=your_api_key

The development server will start on port 8080 by default. You can configure the port using the PORT environment variable:

PORT=4000 FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_api_key npm run dev

Development with Server-Level Mode Enforcement

Server-Level Static Mode (All Sessions Use Specific Toolsets):

# Environment variable approach
FMP_TOOL_SETS=search,company,quotes FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_api_key npm run dev

# CLI argument approach (higher precedence)
npm run dev -- --fmp-token=your_api_key --fmp-tool-sets=search,company,quotes

Server-Level Dynamic Mode (All Sessions Start with Meta-Tools):

# Environment variable approach
DYNAMIC_TOOL_DISCOVERY=true FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_api_key npm run dev

# CLI argument approach (higher precedence)
npm run dev -- --fmp-token=your_api_key --dynamic-tool-discovery

Session-Level Configuration (Default - No Server Enforcement):

# Start server without mode enforcement
npm run dev -- --fmp-token=your_api_key

Testing Different Server Modes

# Dynamic mode - meta-tools for runtime toolset management
npm run dev -- --fmp-token=your_api_key --dynamic-tool-discovery

# Static mode - specific toolsets loaded at startup
npm run dev -- --fmp-token=your_api_key --fmp-tool-sets=search,company,quotes

# Legacy mode - all tools loaded (default)
npm run dev -- --fmp-token=your_api_key

Testing Session Token Override

# Start server without token
npm run dev

# Pass token per-session
CONFIG_BASE64=$(echo -n '{"FMP_ACCESS_TOKEN":"your_key"}' | base64)
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/mcp?config=${CONFIG_BASE64}" -d '...'

Running Tests

The project uses Vitest for testing. You can run tests in several ways:

# Run tests in watch mode (for development)
npm test

# Run tests once
npm run test:run

# Run tests with coverage report
npm run test:coverage

The coverage report will be generated in the coverage/ directory and displayed in the terminal. You can open coverage/index.html in your browser to view a detailed HTML coverage report.
