Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

SEC insider trading alerts, Form 4 signals, 8-K events, and company research via EDGAR Alert API.

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: EDGARALERT_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: EDGARALERT_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": {
    "edgaralert": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@edgaralert/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "EDGARALERT_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add edgaralert --env EDGARALERT_API_KEY=your-value -- npx -y @edgaralert/mcp-server

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": {
    "edgaralert": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@edgaralert/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "EDGARALERT_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": {
    "edgaralert": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@edgaralert/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "EDGARALERT_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

  • EDGARALERT_API_KEY secret required env
    Your EDGAR Alert API key (find it at edgaralert.com/account/api-keys).

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

Common questions

Is Edgaralert 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: EDGARALERT_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 (1.0.1) 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?

EDGAR Alert MCP Server

Connect Claude Desktop (or any MCP-compatible client) directly to your EDGAR Alert account. Ask live questions about SEC insider trading signals, Form 4 activity, 8-K officer/director changes, and company research context — without leaving your conversation.

Works on any paid EDGAR Alert plan. Most tools (latest alerts,

search, company profiles, fundamentals, price windows) work on STARTER

and PRO. One tool — edgaralert_get_company_agent_context, the bundled

AI research-context payload — requires Enterprise; on a lower plan

it returns a clear upgrade message instead of failing silently. See

Tools below for the full breakdown, and

edgaralert.com/pricing to upgrade.

What this is (and isn't)

  • A thin wrapper around the existing public https://api.edgaralert.com/api/v1 REST API. Every tool maps to exactly one v1 endpoint.
  • No direct database access. No scoring or signal logic is duplicated here — all of that lives in the API, same as it does for every other v1 API consumer.
  • No billing, no account management, no trading. This server cannot place orders, change your subscription, or alter account settings.
  • Two tools write, and only to your own watchlists. edgaralert_add_ticker_to_list and edgaralert_remove_ticker_from_list POST and DELETE against /ticker-lists. Everything else is a GET.
  • Your API key is yours — you provide it, it is sent only to api.edgaralert.com as the X-API-Key header, and this server never writes it to disk or logs it.

Requirements

  • Node.js 18.17 or later
  • An EDGAR Alert API key on any paid plan (get one here) — STARTER and PRO both work for most tools; Enterprise unlocks all 8.

Install

Option A: One-click install via .mcpb (recommended for most users)
  1. Download edgaralert-mcp.mcpb from the latest release.
  2. Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Extensions → Advanced settings → Install Extension, and select the downloaded file (or just drag the file onto the Claude Desktop window).
  3. When prompted, paste your EDGAR Alert API key. Claude Desktop stores it securely in your OS keychain — this project never sees or stores it outside that prompt.
  4. Restart Claude Desktop if prompted.
Option B: Manual install via claude_desktop_config.json
  1. Clone or download this folder (mcp-server/) somewhere on your machine.
  2. Install dependencies and build:
   cd mcp-server

npm install npm run build

  1. Open your Claude Desktop config file:
  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
  1. Add an entry under mcpServers (see example below).
  2. Restart Claude Desktop.
Option C: Run locally for development
cd mcp-server

npm install EDGARALERT_API_KEY=EA_your_key_here npm run dev

This runs the server on stdio using tsx, without a build step. Useful when iterating on tool definitions.

Example Claude Desktop config

{

"mcpServers": { "edgaralert": { "command": "node", "args": ["/absolute/path/to/mcp-server/dist/index.js"], "env": { "EDGARALERT_API_KEY": "EA_your_key_here" } } } }

Replace /absolute/path/to/mcp-server/dist/index.js with the real path on your machine, and EA_your_key_here with your actual EDGAR Alert API key. Never commit this file with a real key in it.

Environment variables

VariableRequiredDefaultDescription
EDGARALERT_API_KEYYes—Your EDGAR Alert v1 API key. Sent as X-API-Key on every request.
EDGARALERT_BASE_URLNohttps://api.edgaralert.com/api/v1Override for staging/local development. Most users should not set this.

Tools

Ten of the twelve tools are read-only; the two watchlist mutations are marked write below. See docs/tools.md for full input schemas, endpoint mappings, and error behavior.

"Min. plan" reflects what the *underlying API* enforces today — STARTER and PRO keys can use 11 of 12 tools. Only edgaralert_get_company_agent_context requires Enterprise; on a lower-tier key it returns a clean 403 with an upgrade message (see below) rather than failing silently or crashing. The two /insights/* tools are public and need no plan at all.

Errors you might see

  • "Your EDGAR Alert API key was rejected" — check EDGARALERT_API_KEY is set and correct.
  • "This action requires a higher EDGAR Alert plan" — expected on edgaralert_get_company_agent_context for STARTER/PRO keys; every other tool should work normally on those plans. If you see this on a different tool, double check your plan tier in the EDGAR Alert dashboard.
  • "rate or daily quota exceeded" — you've hit your plan's API limits. Wait, or check usage in your EDGAR Alert dashboard.
  • "Could not reach the EDGAR Alert API" — a network/connectivity issue, not an account issue. Run node -e "fetch('https://api.edgaralert.com/api/v1/alerts/latest').then(r=>r.text()).then(console.log)" — you should see a JSON error like {"message":"Missing X-API-Key header."} (that's expected and means the API is reachable). If you get a DNS error (ENOTFOUND/ENODATA) or no response, the problem is local network/DNS, not this server or your account.
  • "Unexpected token '<', is not valid JSON" — the request reached a server, but got back an HTML page instead of API data. This happens if EDGARALERT_BASE_URL is ever pointed at edgaralert.com or www.edgaralert.com instead of api.edgaralert.com — the bare and www hosts serve the marketing website (an Azure Static Web App), not the API. The default in this package is already set to api.edgaralert.com; if you see this error, check whether EDGARALERT_BASE_URL has been overridden somewhere in your config.

Security notes

  • This server has no admin, billing, or order-management capability of any kind — those endpoints are not implemented here, by design.
  • No secrets are hardcoded anywhere in this package. The only credential used is the one you supply via environment variable / Claude Desktop config.
  • No data is cached or persisted to disk between tool calls.
  • Network access is limited to EDGARALERT_BASE_URL (defaults to api.edgaralert.com) — no other outbound calls are made.

Development

npm run typecheck   # type-check without emitting

npm run build # compile to dist/ npm run dev # run with tsx, no build step

To add a new tool: copy the pattern in src/tools/getWeeklyInsights.ts (for a no-input tool) or src/tools/searchAlerts.ts (for a filtered tool), register it in src/tools/index.ts, and only ever call api/v1/* or other already-public endpoints. Do not add database clients, Stripe/order clients, or any write-capable tool to this package.
