Setup
Option 1: Claude.ai (OAuth)
The remote server at mcp.tickerapi.ai supports OAuth 2.1 for Claude.ai Connectors. No API key management required — sign in with your TickerAPI account and Claude.ai handles the rest.
Option 2: Remote server (Bearer token)
Connect any MCP client to https://mcp.tickerapi.ai/mcp with your API key as a Bearer token.
Option 3: npm package (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.)
Add to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"tickerapi": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["tickerapi-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"TICKERAPI_KEY": "tapi_your_api_key_here"
}
}
}
}
Get an API key at tickerapi.ai/dashboard.
Structure
This is a three-package workspace:
shared/— Shared tool definitions, API client, and server factory (internal, not published)remote/— Cloudflare Worker deployed atmcp.tickerapi.ai(Streamable HTTP transport + OAuth 2.1)local/— Published npm packagetickerapi-mcp-server(stdio transport)
Both the remote server and npm package use the same tool definitions from shared/. The MCP server is a thin proxy — all tier-based access control, rate limiting, and field filtering is handled by the TickerAPI HTTP API.
Authentication
The remote server supports two authentication methods:
- Bearer token — pass your
tapi_*API key directly asAuthorization: Bearer tapi_... - OAuth 2.1 — used by Claude.ai Connectors. The server implements dynamic client registration, PKCE, token exchange, and revocation. The
/authorizeendpoint redirects to the main TickerAPI site for consent.
