- Handling Large tool responses out of LLM context to minimize context rot.
- Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 1000+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

## Connect Nasdaq to Claude Code

### Connecting Nasdaq to Claude Code using Composio
1. Add the Composio MCP to Claude

```bash
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http composio https://connect.composio.dev/mcp
```

## What is Claude Code?

Claude Code is Anthropic's command line developer tool that lets you use Claude directly inside your terminal. Instead of switching between your editor, browser, and chat, you can stay in your project folder and ask Claude to help you build, debug, refactor, and understand code right where you're working.
Key features include:
- Terminal-Native Experience: Work with Claude directly in your command line without switching contexts
- MCP Support: Built-in support for Model Context Protocol servers to extend Claude's capabilities
- Project Context: Claude understands your project structure and can read, write, and modify files
- Interactive Development: Ask questions, debug code, and get help in real-time while coding
- Multi-Platform: Works on macOS, Linux, WSL, and Windows

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

The Nasdaq MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Nasdaq Data Link account. It provides structured and secure access to real-time financial data, analyst ratings, dividend histories, and more, so your agent can fetch live quotes, analyze trends, retrieve historical performance, and power your financial insights automatically.
- Real-time stock quote retrieval: Instantly get up-to-the-second price quotes and market data for any supported symbol, enabling timely investment decisions and market monitoring.
- Analyst ratings and target price lookup: Access the latest analyst recommendations and price targets for specific symbols to inform your trading strategies and research.
- Historical dividend tracking: Retrieve detailed dividend history for any stock, supporting portfolio income analysis and historical return calculations.
- Table metadata and structure exploration: Let your agent fetch and understand datatable schemas, making it easy to build data-driven applications with accurate column definitions and sample data.
- Targeted data row and table queries: Pull specific rows or tables updated on certain dates, supporting custom research, analysis, and reporting workflows.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `NASDAQ_GET_ANALYST_RATINGS` | Get Analyst Ratings and Target Prices | Retrieves comprehensive analyst ratings and target price data for a stock symbol from Zacks Investment Research. Returns current and historical (1-3 months ago) rating counts across all rating categories (Strong Buy, Buy, Hold, Sell, Strong Sell), mean rating scores, and consensus target price estimates including mean, median, high, low, standard deviation, and revision counts. Also provides historical target price data with observation dates showing how analyst estimates have changed over time. Data sources: ZACKS/AR (analyst ratings) and ZACKS/TP (target prices historical data). |
| `NASDAQ_GET_DATATABLE` | Get Datatable Bulk Export | Tool to request a bulk export of a NASDAQ Data Link datatable. Returns a download link for a zipped CSV file containing the entire table data, bypassing the standard 10,000 row limit. Use this when you need to download large datasets in full. Check the response status: if 'fresh', the file is ready for download; if 'creating' or 'regenerating', wait and retry the request. The download link is valid for 30 minutes only. |
| `NASDAQ_GET_DATATABLE_METADATA` | Get Datatable Metadata | Tool to retrieve metadata for a NASDAQ Data Link datatable. Returns complete schema information including column definitions, data types, filterable columns, primary keys, premium status, and refresh schedule. Use when you need to understand the structure and availability of a datatable before querying its data. |
| `NASDAQ_GET_DIVIDEND_HISTORY` | Get Dividend Fundamentals | Retrieves quarterly dividend-related fundamentals for a specific stock ticker from SHARADAR SF1 database. Returns dividend metrics including DPS (dividend per share), dividend yield, payout ratio, and cash flow from dividends. Data is quarterly (dimension=ARQ) and sourced from company financial statements. Note: This endpoint accesses the premium SHARADAR SF1 database which may require subscription access. |
| `NASDAQ_GET_REAL_TIME_QUOTE` | Get Stock Price Data | Retrieves end-of-day historical stock price data for a specific ticker symbol from the QUOTEMEDIA database. Returns OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) prices, volume, and dividend/split information. Note: This provides historical end-of-day data, not live real-time quotes. |
| `NASDAQ_GET_TABLE_ROW` | Get Table Row By Filter | Retrieves rows from a NASDAQ Data Link datatable by filtering on a specified column and value. This action queries NASDAQ Data Link datatables (e.g., SHARADAR/SF1 for fundamental data, SHARADAR/TICKERS for ticker metadata) and returns rows matching the filter criteria. The API may return multiple rows if the filter isn't unique (e.g., filtering ticker='AAPL' in SF1 returns multiple fiscal periods). Use the 'columns' parameter to limit returned fields. Common use cases: - Get fundamental data for a stock: datacode='SHARADAR', datatable_code='SF1', filter_column_name='ticker' - Get ticker metadata: datacode='SHARADAR', datatable_code='TICKERS', filter_column_name='ticker' - Get price data: datacode='SHARADAR', datatable_code='SEP', filter_column_name='ticker' |
| `NASDAQ_GET_TABLES_BY_DATE` | Get Datatables Updated on Specific Date | Retrieves Nasdaq Data Link datatables (databases) that were last updated on a specific date. This action fetches all available datatables from Nasdaq Data Link's catalog and filters them by their last update timestamp to return only those updated on the target date. Useful for discovering recently updated data sources. |

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Nasdaq MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects Claude Code (and other AI assistants like Claude and Cursor) directly to your Nasdaq account. It provides structured and secure access so Claude can perform Nasdaq operations on your behalf.
With Composio's managed implementation, you don't have to create your own developer app. For production, if you're building an end product, we recommend using your own credentials. The managed server helps you prototype fast and go from 0-1 faster.

## Step-by-step Guide

### 1. Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:
- Claude Pro, Max, or API billing enabled Anthropic account
- Composio API Key
- A Nasdaq account
- Basic knowledge of Python or TypeScript

### 1. Install Claude Code

To install Claude Code, use one of the following methods based on your operating system:
```bash
# macOS, Linux, WSL
curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash

# Windows PowerShell
irm https://claude.ai/install.ps1 | iex

# Windows CMD
curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.cmd -o install.cmd && install.cmd && del install.cmd
```

### 2. Set up Claude Code

Open a terminal, go to your project folder, and start Claude Code:
- Claude Code will open in your terminal
- Follow the prompts to sign in with your Anthropic account
- Complete the authentication flow
- Once authenticated, you can start using Claude Code
```bash
cd your-project-folder
claude
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file in your project root with the following variables:
- COMPOSIO_API_KEY authenticates with Composio (get it from [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=claude-code&utm_content=api_key&next=%2F~%2Forg%2Fconnect%2Fclients%2Fclaude-code))
- USER_ID identifies the user for session management (use any unique identifier)
```bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here
USER_ID=your_user_id_here
```

### 4. Install Composio library

No description provided.
```python
pip install composio-core python-dotenv
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/core dotenv
```

### 5. Generate Composio MCP URL

No description provided.
```python
import os
from composio import Composio
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()

COMPOSIO_API_KEY = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
USER_ID = os.getenv("USER_ID")

composio_client = Composio(api_key=COMPOSIO_API_KEY)

composio_session = composio_client.create(
    user_id=USER_ID,
    toolkits=["nasdaq"],
)

COMPOSIO_MCP_URL = composio_session.mcp.url

print(f"MCP URL: {COMPOSIO_MCP_URL}")
print(f"\nUse this command to add to Claude Code:")
print(f'claude mcp add --transport http nasdaq-composio "{COMPOSIO_MCP_URL}" --headers "X-API-Key:{COMPOSIO_API_KEY}"')
```

```typescript
import 'dotenv/config';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';

const { COMPOSIO_API_KEY, USER_ID } = process.env;

if (!COMPOSIO_API_KEY || !USER_ID) {
  throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY and USER_ID required in .env');
}

const composioClient = new Composio({ apiKey: COMPOSIO_API_KEY });

const composioSession = await composioClient.create(USER_ID, {
  toolkits: ['nasdaq'],
});

const composioMcpUrl = composioSession?.mcp.url;

console.log(`MCP URL: ${composioMcpUrl}`);
console.log(`\nUse this command to add to Claude Code:`);
console.log(`claude mcp add --transport http nasdaq-composio "${composioMcpUrl}" --headers "X-API-Key:${COMPOSIO_API_KEY}"`);
```

### 6. Run the script and copy the MCP URL

No description provided.
```python
python generate_mcp_url.py
```

```typescript
node --loader ts-node/esm generate_mcp_url.ts
# or if using tsx
tsx generate_mcp_url.ts
```

### 7. Add Nasdaq MCP to Claude Code

In your terminal, add the MCP server using the command from the previous step. The command format is:
- claude mcp add registers a new MCP server with Claude Code
- --transport http specifies that this is an HTTP-based MCP server
- The server name (nasdaq-composio) is how you'll reference it
- The URL points to your Composio Tool Router session
- --headers includes your Composio API key for authentication
After running the command, close the current Claude Code session and start a new one for the changes to take effect.
```bash
claude mcp add --transport http nasdaq-composio "YOUR_MCP_URL_HERE" --headers "X-API-Key:YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY"

# Then restart Claude Code
exit
claude
```

### 8. Verify the installation

Check that your Nasdaq MCP server is properly configured.
- This command lists all MCP servers registered with Claude Code
- You should see your nasdaq-composio entry in the list
- This confirms that Claude Code can now access Nasdaq tools
If everything is wired up, you should see your nasdaq-composio entry listed:
```bash
claude mcp list
```

### 9. Authenticate Nasdaq

The first time you try to use Nasdaq tools, you'll be prompted to authenticate.
- Claude Code will detect that you need to authenticate with Nasdaq
- It will show you an authentication link
- Open the link in your browser (or copy/paste it)
- Complete the Nasdaq authorization flow
- Return to the terminal and start using Nasdaq through Claude Code
Once authenticated, you can ask Claude Code to perform Nasdaq operations in natural language. For example:
- "Get real-time quote for AAPL stock"
- "Show analyst ratings for TSLA this week"
- "Retrieve dividend history for MSFT"

## Complete Code

```python
import os
from composio import Composio
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()

COMPOSIO_API_KEY = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
USER_ID = os.getenv("USER_ID")

composio_client = Composio(api_key=COMPOSIO_API_KEY)

composio_session = composio_client.create(
    user_id=USER_ID,
    toolkits=["nasdaq"],
)

COMPOSIO_MCP_URL = composio_session.mcp.url

print(f"MCP URL: {COMPOSIO_MCP_URL}")
print(f"\nUse this command to add to Claude Code:")
print(f'claude mcp add --transport http nasdaq-composio "{COMPOSIO_MCP_URL}" --headers "X-API-Key:{COMPOSIO_API_KEY}"')
```

```typescript
import 'dotenv/config';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';

const { COMPOSIO_API_KEY, USER_ID } = process.env;

if (!COMPOSIO_API_KEY || !USER_ID) {
  throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY and USER_ID required in .env');
}

const composioClient = new Composio({ apiKey: COMPOSIO_API_KEY });

const composioSession = await composioClient.create(USER_ID, {
  toolkits: ['nasdaq'],
});

const composioMcpUrl = composioSession?.mcp.url;

console.log(`MCP URL: ${composioMcpUrl}`);
console.log(`\nUse this command to add to Claude Code:`);
console.log(`claude mcp add --transport http nasdaq-composio "${composioMcpUrl}" --headers "X-API-Key:${COMPOSIO_API_KEY}"`);
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

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

Yes, you can. Claude 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 Nasdaq tools.

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

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Nasdaq 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 Nasdaq data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
