Local MCP beta

A local read-only MCP beta server is available for the five-company public preview dataset. It runs locally for Claude Desktop and compatible MCP clients.

Status: local beta available

The MCP server is included in the repository under mcp_server/. It uses the Python package and reads the same public preview files used by the website. Hosted MCP access is not available yet.

Setup is documented in mcp_server/README.md. Install mcp_server/requirements.txt before running the local server.

What the MCP can query

The tools return JSON-serializable structured data for company profiles, fundamentals, accounting ratios, valuation ratios, reporting coverage, quality notes, source references and simple metric comparisons.

Example: Claude Desktop using the local MCP beta

This screenshot shows Claude Desktop querying the local swiss-equity-data MCP integration to compare DKSH.SW, GEBN.SW and SIKA.SW for 2025. The data is read locally from the five-company public preview dataset — no external API calls, no scraping.

Claude Desktop using the Swiss Equity Data local MCP beta to compare DKSH.SW, GEBN.SW and SIKA.SW — compact table with revenue, EBIT margin, ROE and EV/EBITDA for 2025

The example shows a compact 2025 comparison for DKSH.SW, GEBN.SW and SIKA.SW using revenue, EBIT margin, ROE and EV/EBITDA from the local MCP integration. This is a product example, not investment advice.

What this demonstrates

Structured company comparison

Side-by-side annual fundamentals and ratios returned as a formatted table.

Quality-aware access

The MCP server includes reliability notes when data quality flags are present.

Read-only local data

All data is read from the public preview files locally. Nothing is fetched from external services.

MCP-compatible clients

Works with Claude Desktop and other MCP-capable AI clients that support local tool servers.

Current scope

The Local MCP beta is limited to the five-company public preview dataset: BARN.SW, DKSH.SW, GEBN.SW, SCMN.SW and SIKA.SW. It does not access broader internal company coverage.

Missing values remain missing. For MCP JSON transport, missing tabular values are returned as null.

Boundaries

Read-only tools

The local server reads published preview files and does not write data or alter the dataset.

No hosted MCP service

The current MCP option runs locally. It is not a hosted service and does not add backend access.

No investment advice

The MCP tools do not provide target prices, forecasts, buy/sell/hold outputs, rankings or security ratings.

Hosted access roadmap

Hosted MCP access remains a roadmap item. The current release is a local beta for the public preview dataset only.
