Tearsheet
Introduction
Tearsheet is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to enable LLMs (such as Claude, Cursor, or GPT-based agents) to retrieve, analyze, and visualize stock prices and financial report data. It provides a set of robust tools for quantitative trading research, investment analysis, and financial education.
Usage Scenarios
- LLM-driven trading analysis: Let LLMs fetch and analyze stock data, financial statements, and technical indicators to generate trading insights.
- Financial metric calculation: Compute key ratios and metrics from income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow tables.
- Visualization: Generate price charts (line or candlestick), financial metric trends, normalized comparisons, and trading signal charts.
- Backtesting: Run a moving-average crossover strategy and get performance stats (total return, Sharpe ratio, max drawdown, win rate).
- Automated research: Integrate with LLMs to answer questions like "What is the ROE of AAPL?", "Show me the last 6 months of MSFT price data.", or "Plot buy/sell signals for TSLA."
Features
- Retrieve real-time and historical stock prices (single or multiple tickers)
- Retrieve dividends and stock splits history
- Retrieve general ticker info and fundamentals
- Extract and analyze financial statements (income statement, balance sheet, cash flow)
- Calculate key financial metrics (gross margin, operating margin, net profit margin, EBITDA, debt-to-equity, current ratio, quick ratio, book value per share, free cash flow, cash flow margin, ROE, ROA, P/E, P/B, dividend yield)
- Calculate technical indicators (SMA, EMA, RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, volatility, ATR, Stochastic)
- Calculate period-over-period and annualized growth rates
- Backtest a moving-average crossover (Golden Cross / Death Cross) strategy
- Visualize price data with line and candlestick charts
- Plot financial metrics over time
- Compare multiple tickers side-by-side with optional normalization
- Plot trading signals and opportunities
- LLM-friendly, JSON-serializable outputs

How to Run
-
Configure your LLM client (Claude, Cursor, etc.) to connect to the MCP server and call the available tools.
Go to Claude settings → Developer → Edit Config and add a new MCP server entry:
{ "mcpServers": { "tearsheet": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "/path/to/Tearsheet", "run", "main.py" ] } } }tearsheetshould now be listed in your Claude tools. -
Start talking with your trading assistant!
