The MCP servers
Eight servers, all open and no-auth, over Streamable HTTP. Each links to its docs page with the endpoint, transport and tool list. The same backends also serve plain HTTP APIs.
- TREMOR - Macro & Credit IndicatorsAbout 330 curated macro and credit-stress indicators (FRED, OECD, RBI, NY Fed, NCUA, FDIC, Shiller, NSE). The same data is an open HTTP API too.
- Database Query - read-only SQLRead-only SQL against Postgres and DuckDB, with a multi-layer security stack. Reach it through a connected GPT or any MCP client.
- Compare Securities (QRep)Compare up to 6 securities across 80+ QuantStats metrics - returns, drawdown, Sharpe - as PDF/HTML reports.
- Technical AnalysisA technical-analysis report for any ticker: indicator computations plus a Gemini-Vision chart read. PDF and web output.
- Security Performance Report (FFN)A multi-security performance and risk comparison (returns, drawdown, Sharpe) from a list of tickers.
- QuantStats TearsheetsTearsheet-style performance and risk analytics for a portfolio, as a tool call.
- Yahoo Finance ExtractorPrice, profile, financials, analyst targets, estimates and holders for any ticker (about 20 endpoints). No key.
- Markdown to PDFConvert Markdown to a formatted PDF as a tool call (ReportLab). The PDF engine behind several Tigzig tools.

Build your own MCP server
How these servers are built - FastAPI wrapped as MCP, and mounting them in low-code agent flows.
- ChatGPT connected to integrated FastAPI-MCP serversThe FastAPI-as-MCP pattern, with a technical-analysis report as the worked example.
- Build AI workflows with MCP servers + n8nMount an MCP server in an n8n flow.

Live apps & GPTs on the same backends
Want to see a backend in action? These run on the same MCP servers and APIs above.
- Quants Agent / Portfolio Analysis SuiteThe Technical Analysis, Security Performance and Yahoo Finance backends together - QuantStats, SPR and TA reports in one place.
- Database AI hubChat with any database. Ask for a PDF and it calls the Markdown-to-PDF backend.
- Markdown to PDF - web toolThe web front end for the Markdown-to-PDF backend.
- Custom GPTsChatGPT custom GPTs wired to these same backends - Multi-Database, Quants and Technical Analysis.
- Flowise / n8n agent flowsLow-code flows that mount these MCP servers to produce reports and PDFs.
MCP security
An MCP server is an API surface like any other, so the same hardening applies - how much depends on what your server actually does. A data-only server needs rate limiting and input validation; a SQL server needs the full database hardening (read-only enforcement, query validation, resource-exhaustion blocks); one that wraps a backend adds the FastAPI checks.

For AI agents - the machine directory
For a machine-readable list of every server with its endpoint and transport, point your client at the directory - each server self-describes via MCP initialize.
- MCP directory (servers.json, SEP-1649)The machine directory of every MCP server.
- Site index (llms.txt)The whole-site directory for AI agents.
- API catalog (RFC 9727)Every HTTP endpoint incl. full-dataset bulk downloads.
