## Installation

### Prerequisites

- [Claude Desktop](https://claude.ai/download)
- Node.js 18 or higher
- Financial Modeling Prep API key ([Get one here](https://financialmodelingprep.com/developer/docs))

### Quick Start with NPX

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration file:

**macOS**: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`  
**Windows**: `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "financial-modeling-prep": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@houtini/fmp-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "FMP_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Replace `your_api_key_here` with your actual API key from Financial Modeling Prep.

**Important**: Restart Claude Desktop completely after updating the configuration.

### Claude Code (CLI)

Claude Code uses a different registration mechanism -- it doesn't read `claude_desktop_config.json`. Use `claude mcp add` instead:

```bash
claude mcp add -e FMP_API_KEY=your_api_key_here -s user financial-modeling-prep -- npx -y @houtini/fmp-mcp
```

Verify with:

```bash
claude mcp get financial-modeling-prep
```

You should see `Status: Connected`.
