Building a Finance agent with MCP

See Full Video:

Overview

This project demonstrates the use of a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for retrieving financial data. The MCP server is integrated with Agno and Smol Agent to showcase its versatility in handling multiple agentic frameworks in standardized way.

1. MCP Server (Finance):

2. Agentic Framework Integration

Features

• MCP enables AI applications to access diverse data sources and tools using a consistent protocol, streamlining the development process.
• AI applications (clients) communicate with MCP servers that expose specific capabilities, such as data access or function execution
• MCP allows AI models to retrieve up-to-date information and perform actions based on real-time data, enhancing their responsiveness and accuracy .

Getting Started

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/Ihtishammehmood/Finance_MCP-Server.git

2. Add Groq and Financial Datasets APi to .env:

GROQ_API_KEY = "Place your GROQ API key here"
FINANCIAL_DATASETS_API_KEY = "Place your Financial Datasets API key here"

3. Install UV package Manager

pip install uv

4. Create Virtual Environment

uv venv

5. Activate virtual Environment:

.venv\Scripts\activate

6. Install dependencies

uv add -r requirements.txt

7. Start Agno and Smol Agent integrations:

uv run agno_agent.py

Initialize MCP Inspector

• Run `mcp dev server.py` in Terminal

Add MCP server in IDE
