Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

CLI + MCP server for SEC 13F institutional holdings, insider trading, and smart money convergence.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Accounting, finance & tax
  • You need to fill in: ALPHASMO_API_KEY

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: ALPHASMO_API_KEY

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "alphasmo-tools": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "alphasmo",
        "mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ALPHASMO_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add alphasmo-tools --env ALPHASMO_API_KEY=your-value -- npx -y alphasmo mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "alphasmo-tools": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "alphasmo",
        "mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ALPHASMO_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "alphasmo-tools": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "alphasmo",
        "mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ALPHASMO_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • ALPHASMO_API_KEY secret env
    Optional API key to raise the rate limit above the free anonymous tier

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Alphasmo Tools safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: ALPHASMO_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.2.1) reached the registry 4 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

AlphaSMO — The Ultimate Smart Money API for AI

CLI + [MCP server](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) for [AlphaSMO](https://alphasmo.com) — SEC EDGAR 13F institutional holdings, Form 4 insider trading, and "smart money convergence" signals (tickers where hedge funds *and* company insiders are buying at the same time), queryable from your terminal, your scripts, or any MCP-compatible AI agent (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc.).

No signup, no API key, no setup — try it right now:

npx alphasmo stocks flows --limit 10

## Why AlphaSMO
  • 📊 13F institutional holdings — every hedge fund and asset manager's quarterly SEC filings: AUM, positions, and behavioral "personality scores" (concentration, turnover, sector conviction). Read our guide on What Is a 13F Filing? and How to Read Institutional Holdings Changes.
  • 🕵️ Insider trading (Form 4 & 144) — officer/director/10%-owner buys and sells, with a confidence score per ticker. Learn more in What Is a Form 4 Filing? and What Is a Form 144 Filing?.
  • 🚀 Smart money convergence — the flagship signal: tickers where 13F institutions *and* company insiders are both buying right now.
  • 🤖 Built for AI agents — an MCP server out of the box, so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client can pull real financial data mid-conversation.
  • 🆓 Free anonymous tier — no signup required to try it; get a free API key any time to raise your rate limit.

Use cases

"What is smart money buying right now?"        → alphasmo convergence

"What does Berkshire Hathaway hold?" → alphasmo institutions holdings berkshire-hathaway-inc "Are insiders buying or selling NVDA?" → alphasmo insider summary NVDA "Which stocks are institutions dumping?" → alphasmo stocks flows --direction sell

Wire the MCP server into Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client (see below) and ask these in plain English — no code required.

CLI

npx alphasmo institutions search "Berkshire"

npx alphasmo stocks get AAPL npx alphasmo convergence -l 5

No install step required — npx fetches and runs it. Or install globally:

npm install -g alphasmo

alphasmo --help

Commands
CommandWhat it returns
`alphasmo institutions search [-l\--limit]`Search 13F institutions by name
`alphasmo institutions list [-l\--limit] [-o\--offset]`Paginate the full institution universe (no query)
alphasmo institutions get Full institution detail, sector weights
alphasmo institutions holdings Latest 13F holdings for one institution
alphasmo stocks get Full stock detail — holder count, flows, top holders (identifier = ticker or CUSIP)
`alphasmo stocks flows [-d\--direction buy\sell] [-l\--limit]`Stocks ranked by net institutional buy/sell flow
alphasmo insider trades Recent individual Form 4 insider trades for one ticker
alphasmo insider summary Insider confidence scores (30d/90d) for one ticker
`alphasmo convergence [-l\--limit] [--min-confidence] [--days]`Tickers where 13F institutions *and* insiders are both buying — the flagship signal
alphasmo mcpStart the MCP server over stdio

Global flags on every command: --api-key (env ALPHASMO_API_KEY), --base-url (env ALPHASMO_BASE_URL), -f/--format json|compact|table|csv, --json (shorthand for --format json), --csv (shorthand for --format csv).

Output format auto-detects your context — no flag needed in the common case:

  • Typed directly in a terminal → a readable table, with numbers comma-formatted (263,095,703,570).
  • Piped, redirected, or spawned by a script/AI agent (stdout isn't a TTY) → JSON, safe to pipe into jq or feed to an agent.
  • --format/--json/--csv always override the auto-detection either way.
alphasmo stocks flows --csv > flows.csv

alphasmo insider trades AAPL --csv | column -s, -t

Errors go to stderr with a distinct exit code (2 not found, 3 auth, 4 rate limit, 5 unexpected response shape, 1 other), so scripts can branch without string-matching.

Get an API key

Anonymous requests are rate-limited by IP. Sign up and mint a free key at [alphasmo.com/developer](https://alphasmo.com/developer), then:

alphasmo convergence --api-key ask_live_...

or

export ALPHASMO_API_KEY=ask_live_...

MCP server

Option 1: claude mcp add (recommended)

If you're using Claude Code, register the server with one command:

claude mcp add alphasmo -- npx -y alphasmo@latest mcp

Add -e ALPHASMO_API_KEY=ask_live_... before the -- to raise your rate limit. Run claude mcp list to confirm it's connected.

Option 2: manual MCP client config

For Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any other MCP client, add this to your config file directly:

{

"mcpServers": { "alphasmo": { "command": "npx", "args": ["alphasmo", "mcp"], "env": { "ALPHASMO_API_KEY": "optional-your-key-here" } } } }

Both options work anonymously out of the box, at lower rate limits than with a key. Tools exposed: search_institutions, get_institution_profile, get_institution_holdings, get_stock_overview, get_stock_flows, get_insider_activity, get_smart_money_convergence.

Full endpoint reference: alphasmo.com/developer/docs.

Programmatic use

import { AlphasmoClient } from "alphasmo";

const client = new AlphasmoClient(); // no apiKey needed to try it console.log(await client.getSmartMoneyConvergence({ limit: 5 }));

npm install alphasmo

A Python client + MCP server is also available — see alphasmo.com/developer for setup.
