## Introduction

### How to connect Finage MCP with VS Code
VS Code is the most popular code editor out there. With its recent AI makeover, it can do more than just help you write code. You can connect your applications to it and let LLMs automate many of the mundane tasks in your workflow.
In this guide, I will explain how to connect Finage with VS Code in the most secure and robust way possible via Composio.

## TL;DR

### Why use Composio?
Composio provides:
- Access to 1,000+ managed apps from a single MCP endpoint. This makes it convenient for agents to run cross-app workflows.
- Programmatic tool calling. Allows LLMs to write its code in a remote workbench to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
- Large tool response handling outside the LLM context. This minimizes context bloat from large tool responses.
- Dynamic just-in-time access to thousands of tools across hundreds of apps. Composio loads the tools your agent needs, so LLMs are not overwhelmed by tools they do not need.

      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

## What is the Finage MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Finage MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Finage account. It provides structured and secure access to real-time and historical financial market data, so your agent can perform actions like fetching live stock quotes, analyzing market trends, retrieving news, and monitoring market status on your behalf.
- Real-time stock quotes and market snapshots: Instantly get up-to-date price quotes, volume, bid/ask details, or aggregate snapshots for one or multiple stocks at once.
- Historical and end-of-day data retrieval: Have your agent pull detailed historical or end-of-day OHLCV data for any stock symbol to analyze trends or generate reports.
- Market news and updates analysis: Stay on top of the latest financial news, filtered by specific stocks, to inform investment decisions or research market events.
- Market status and exchange monitoring: Check if major stock markets are open or closed, review trading hours, and plan automated trades based on real-time market status.
- Tick-by-tick and previous close data access: Dive into granular tick-level trade data or review the previous day's close for any symbol to support high-frequency trading or day-over-day analysis.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `FINAGE_GET_STOCK_DETAILS` | Get Stock Quote | This tool retrieves real-time stock quote information for a given stock symbol. it provides current price, price changes, trading volume, and other key market data. |
| `FINAGE_GET_STOCK_END_OF_DAY_DATA` | Get Stock End-of-Day Data | This tool retrieves the end-of-day data for a specific stock symbol. it provides the opening price, highest price, lowest price, closing price, trading volume, and timestamp for the most recent completed trading day, making it essential for investors and analysts seeking daily summary data without intraday details. |
| `FINAGE_GET_STOCK_HISTORICAL_DATA` | Get Stock Historical Data | This tool will fetch historical daily stock data for a given stock symbol between specified dates. it provides ohlcv data (open, high, low, close, volume) and is independent, requiring only the stock symbol, date range inputs, and authentication. |
| `FINAGE_GET_STOCK_LAST_QUOTE` | Get Stock Last Quote | This tool fetches the latest quote information for a specific stock symbol, providing real-time bid and ask prices, along with their respective sizes and a timestamp. it is essential for trading and market analysis, fetching a json object with details like symbol, ask, bid, asize, bsize, and timestamp. |

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
Now that Finage is connected, extend your setup by connecting the other apps you already use every day, so your agent can run true cross-app workflows end to end.
- Connect Calendar to turn threads into scheduled meetings automatically.
- Connect Slack or Teams to post summaries, approvals, and alerts where your team works.
- Connect Notion, Linear, Jira, or Asana to convert requests into tickets, tasks, and docs.
- Connect Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to fetch, file, and share attachments without manual steps.
- Connect HubSpot or Salesforce to log customer context, update records, and draft follow-ups.
Start with one workflow you do repeatedly, then keep adding apps as you find new handoffs. With everything behind a single MCP endpoint, your agent can coordinate multiple tools safely and reliably in one conversation.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Finage MCP?

With a standalone Finage MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Finage tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Finage and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with VS Code?

Yes, you can. VS Code fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Finage tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Finage while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Finage scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Finage data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
