# EdgarTools MCP — SEC EDGAR filings (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, 13F, Form 4, XBRL)

13+ tools for pulling, parsing, and monitoring SEC EDGAR filings in real time. Covers all major form types and includes XBRL financial parsing.

## Install

```
pip install edgartools
edgar-mcp
```

The `edgar-mcp` command starts the MCP server after installation.

## Configuration

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "edgartools": {
      "command": "edgar-mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

## What it adds

Claude pulls full filings on demand — 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly, 8-K material events, 13F institutional holdings, Form 4 insider transactions — and parses XBRL-structured financials without hand-scraping EDGAR. Useful for corporate fraud investigations, due diligence, and asset tracing.

## Pairs with skills

- 026 `corporate-filings-research`
- 038 `nonprofit-990-research` (partial — IRS not EDGAR, but 990-PF filers sometimes appear)
- 039 `sec-edgar-research`

## Cost

Free. SEC EDGAR requires a User-Agent header which the tool sets automatically. No API key needed.
