Questions
What is the Yahoo Finance 2 MCP server?
Unofficial API for Yahoo Finance with CLI, MCP and Agent Skill
What tools does Yahoo Finance 2 expose?
9 in total: 8 read-only, 1 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.
Is Yahoo Finance 2 safe to connect to an agent?
The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.
What credentials does Yahoo Finance 2 need?
No credential environment variables were found in its source, so it appears to need none.
How does Yahoo Finance 2 run?
It speaks stdio and streamable-http, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as yahoo-finance2-cloudflare-tests at 0.0.0.
How current is this page?
The grade is for one exact copy of the source (d604c71d1eef), read on 2026-09-27. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
