Open-source MCP server connects Screener.in to live financial data for LLM research workflows
ashutosh_811 · reddit · 2026-07-21
What it is
An open-source MCP server wraps Screener.in so LLMs can query live Indian equity data instead of hallucinating fundamentals.
What it exposes
- getfundamentals for valuation and return ratios
- getfinancials for quarterly statements, balance sheet, cash flow, and shareholding
- getpeers for sector comparisons
- getchart for price / DMA / EPS / sales history
- searchcompany for name-to-symbol lookup
- getdocuments for reports, announcements, ratings, and transcripts
- comparestocks for multi-stock ratio comparisons
Why it matters
The author argues LLMs are good at reasoning over fundamentals but bad at knowing current figures, so the right pattern is to connect them to live data.
Caveats
- Public data only, no Screener login
- Scraping means rate limits matter
- The model can still misread numbers, so important figures must be verified
The repo is MIT-licensed and free.
