Details
From the project READMECatalyst Edge MCP Server
Publicly graded SEC catalyst intelligence for AI agents, over the Model Context Protocol. Every US-market SEC filing with market-moving potential is fetched from EDGAR, scored by 500+ data engines, and ranked before the market opens — and unlike most signal products, the track record is public: every past call is published with its outcome at catalystedgescanner.com/receipts.
Use the hosted server (no install)
A hosted instance is live. Point any MCP-capable client at it, or POST JSON-RPC directly:
curl -s https://catalystedgescanner.com/mcp/ \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'
Call a tool (no key needed for the free tier):
curl -s https://catalystedgescanner.com/mcp/ \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":2,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"get_convergence_picks","arguments":{"limit":3}}}'
Paid tiers use a Bearer token: Authorization: Bearer <your-key>.
Tools
| Tool | Tier | Returns |
|---|---|---|
get_convergence_picks | free | today's scored catalyst picks (free: top 3) |
get_track_record | free | historical hit-rate / alpha of published picks |

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
