Point-in-time archive

GET

/asset/{symbol}/as-of

What we recorded on a date

Key optional

⌄

The archived observation for a symbol on a given date, or the most recent one before it if the market was shut. Revisions recorded after that date are excluded, so a backtest cannot see hindsight.

Parameters

symbol (path) date

curl \
  "https://mkts.io/api/v1/asset/AAPL/as-of?date=2026-07-15"

GET

/archive/as-of

Many symbols, one past date

symbols date

  "https://mkts.io/api/v1/archive/as-of?symbols=AAPL,MSFT,BTC&date=2026-07-15"

GET

/asset/{symbol}/series

Key optional

⌄

Daily closes for one symbol across a date range, in a single call. Asking /as-of for 90 separate dates costs 90 requests; this costs one. Each row carries observedAt and isRevision, so a later restatement stays visible.

/asset/{symbol}/intraday

Observations within a day

Key optional

⌄

Every observation made inside a window, not just the close — roughly one per 15 minutes for recent months. Check observedIntervalMinutes, largestGapMinutes and coveragePercent before treating it as fixed bars: cadence is not uniform across the archive.

Agent integrations

One data layer for every agent.

Use the hosted read-only MCP server with Claude, OpenAI, or another Streamable HTTP client. The existing skill and manifests remain available, and OpenClaw users can keep the same key setup.

Connect to Claude ↗

In Claude's connector settings, choose Add custom connector, name it mkts, and paste the endpoint below. No account or key needed. Works in claude.ai and the desktop app.

Remote MCP endpoint

Keyless calls work at public limits. Send your existing key as a Bearer token or X-API-Key for authenticated limits.
