What is this?
Tapetide MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that connects AI assistants to real-time Indian stock market data. It covers all ~8,200 stocks listed on NSE and BSE — from large-cap Nifty 50 to SME stocks.
Ask your AI to look up any stock, run a screener with 326 fundamental filters or real-time technical indicators, pull quarterly financials, check analyst consensus ratings, track your portfolio P&L, monitor FII/DII institutional flows, or get today's bulk deals — all through natural language.
Compatible with: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, Kiro, VS Code, Codex, Zed, Gemini, Grok, OpenCode, Antigravity, and any MCP-compatible client.
Quick Start
Option 1: Remote MCP (No install — claude.ai, chatgpt.com, Grok, Gemini)
Add this URL directly in your AI chat app:
https://mcp.tapetide.com/mcp
Authentication happens automatically via Google OAuth. No token needed.
Option 2: Remote MCP with Token (Claude Code, VS Code, Kiro, Zed)
For code editors that support URL-based MCP servers with custom headers:
- Get a free token at tapetide.com/settings/tokens
- Add to your MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"tapetide": {
"type": "url",
"url": "https://mcp.tapetide.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
}
}
}
}
Option 3: Local MCP via npm (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Gemini CLI, Kiro, OpenCode)
For stdio-based MCP clients. No cloning or building required — runs via npx:
- Get a free token at tapetide.com/settings/tokens
- Add to your MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"tapetide": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "tapetide-mcp"],
"env": {
"TAPETIDE_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
}
}
}
}
Node.js 18+ required for the local option. Run
node --versionto check.
How It Works
┌─────────────────┐ stdio (JSON-RPC) ┌──────────────────┐ HTTPS ┌─────────────────────┐
│ AI Assistant │ ◄──────────────────────► │ tapetide-mcp │ ◄────────────► │ mcp.tapetide.com │
│ (Claude, etc.) │ │ (npm package) │ │ (Cloudflare Worker) │
└─────────────────┘ └──────────────────┘ └─────────────────────┘
The npm package is a lightweight stdio bridge (~300 lines, zero runtime dependencies). It:
- Reads JSON-RPC from stdin, forwards to the remote Tapetide MCP server, writes responses to stdout
- Auto-detects framing: Content-Length (VS Code, Claude Desktop) or newline-delimited JSON (Kiro, Claude Code)
- Exchanges your refresh token for a 1-hour HMAC access token, auto-refreshes before expiry
- Handles SSE responses from the remote server
- Warns on stderr when approaching rate limits
All 34 tools and their logic run on the remote server — the npm package is just the transport layer.
Authentication
| Method | How it works | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Google OAuth | Browser sign-in, automatic token refresh | AI chat apps (Claude.ai, ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini) |
| Personal Token (remote) | Authorization: Bearer tpt_rt_... header | Code editors with URL-based MCP (VS Code, Kiro, Zed) |
| Personal Token (local) | TAPETIDE_TOKEN env var via npx | stdio MCP clients (Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop, Codex) |
Generate a free personal token at tapetide.com/settings/tokens. Works for both remote and local MCP.
