EL7.AI MCP server

Financial market intelligence and research for your AI.

العربية · Documentation · Tool reference

The EL7.AI server is a proprietary hosted service; this repository contains only connection configuration and documentation. There is no server code here and nothing to install or run locally.

What it is

EL7.AI is a financial market intelligence and research platform. Its MCP server gives your AI assistant 85 read-only tools across 15 areas of market research, so it can answer from curated, sourced data instead of guessing.

Coverage: real-time markets news and the EL7 Wire; the global economic calendar with history, consensus and surprise index; eight central banks (Fed, ECB, BoE, BoJ, BoC, RBA, RBNZ, SNB) with decisions, statements, statement-to-statement diffs, press-conference Q&A, previews and tone ranking; CFTC Commitments of Traders positioning; gold and oil fundamentals (flows, reserves, inventories, OPEC, supply and demand); stocks with scores, written analysis, rankings, screener, sector views, analyst consensus, earnings calendar and history, insider and congressional trades; ETFs; market regime, seasonality, correlations and cycles; prediction markets; trading strategies; and a research library. Built for a global audience: English first, with full Arabic support (pass lang: "ar").

Every answer returns the source date and an el7.ai link so figures can be checked; missing dates are flagged as unverified. Tools read EL7's stored, published data: they never place trades and do not generate new analysis at call time. News search may use an external embedding service.

Server

Use the full URL ending in /mcp. Do not add query parameters to it: the OAuth resource must match exactly.

Authentication

OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and dynamic client registration (recommended), or a personal owner-scoped EL7 MCP API key (el7_mcp_…) as a Bearer token.

Most clients (Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Antigravity, Cursor, VS Code, Zed, Goose) sign in with OAuth and need no key. Create an API key only for clients without OAuth support, in the "Your connection" section of https://el7.ai/en/mcp.

Access

Full access requires an EL7 paid membership: 100,000 calls/month, 120/minute. Free accounts can call el7_wire_latest and el7_whoami, within 1,500 calls in total; anonymous callers cannot access tools.

The 15 areas

Setup by client

Every snippet below is also a file in configs/. One-click links are in configs/install-links.txt.

Claude (web, Desktop, mobile)

A connector added once works in Claude on the web, Claude Desktop and the mobile app. Claude Desktop adds remote servers as connectors, not through claude_desktop_config.json.

1. Open Customize, then Connectors.
2. Choose Add custom connector.
3. Enter the name EL7.AI and the URL https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp.
4. Under Authentication choose Sign in now, then Use Claude's published identity.
5. Click Add, sign in at el7.ai with your EL7 account and approve access.
6. In a chat press +, choose Connectors and switch EL7.AI on.

Or open the prefilled dialog: Add EL7.AI to Claude. Official guide: https://claude.com/docs/connectors/custom/add-unlisted

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http el7 https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp
# every project:
claude mcp add --transport http el7 --scope user https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp

Then sign in with /mcp inside Claude Code (choose el7), or claude mcp login el7. For a project .mcp.json (configs/claude-code-mcp.json); the type field is required:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "el7": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Official guide: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/mcp

ChatGPT

1. Open Settings, then Security and login, and turn on Developer mode.
2. Open chatgpt.com/plugins, press +, then Add custom MCP server.
3. Enter the name EL7.AI, set Connection to Server URL and paste https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp.
4. Set Authentication to OAuth, tick the acknowledgement and create the plugin.
5. In a chat press + next to the composer, type EL7.AI, select it and approve the Connect screen.

Custom MCP is not available on the ChatGPT Free plan. Official guide: https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/custom-mcp-server

Codex

codex mcp add el7 --url https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp
codex mcp login el7

Or ~/.codex/config.toml (configs/codex-config.toml), shared by the CLI, the IDE extension and the desktop app:

[mcp_servers.el7]
url = "https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp"

With an API key instead of OAuth (configs/codex-config-api-key.toml), set EL7_MCP_KEY in your environment:

[mcp_servers.el7]
url = "https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp"
bearer_token_env_var = "EL7_MCP_KEY"

Official guide: https://developers.openai.com/codex/mcp

Gemini

Gemini CLI extension. This repository is a Gemini CLI extension (gemini-extension.json):

gemini extensions install https://github.com/walidelhelw/el7-mcp

Or add the server to Gemini CLI settings.json (configs/gemini-settings.json); httpUrl selects Streamable HTTP and Gemini CLI runs the OAuth sign-in:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "el7": {
      "httpUrl": "https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Official guide: https://geminicli.com/docs/tools/mcp-server/

Antigravity. Put this in ~/.gemini/config/mcp_config.json, or .agents/mcp_config.json for one workspace (configs/antigravity-mcp_config.json). The key must be serverUrl:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "el7": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Then open Agent settings, Customizations, Authenticate, sign in in the browser and paste the code back. Official guide: https://antigravity.google/docs/mcp?tab=cli

Gemini on the web. gemini.google.com, Settings, Connected Apps, Add a custom app, paste the URL, then sign in with your EL7 account. Official guide: https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17209137

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json or .cursor/mcp.json (configs/cursor-mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "el7": {
      "url": "https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

One-click install link: configs/install-links.txt. Official guide: https://cursor.com/docs/context/mcp

VS Code (GitHub Copilot agent mode)

.vscode/mcp.json or your user profile (configs/vscode-mcp.json). The top-level key is servers, and type: "http" is required:

{
  "servers": {
    "el7": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or from a terminal:

code --add-mcp '{"name":"el7","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp"}'

VS Code opens a browser to sign in on first use. Install in VS Code. Official guide: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/agents/reference/mcp-configuration

Goose

Run goose configure, choose Add Extension, then Remote Extension (Streamable HTTP), and enter https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp. Or open the install link in configs/goose-install-link.txt. Official guide: https://goose-docs.ai/docs/getting-started/using-extensions

Clients that need an API key

For clients without OAuth support for remote servers (for example LM Studio), send a personal key as a Bearer header (configs/api-key-bearer.json). Replace el7_mcp_… with your own key and never commit it:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "el7": {
      "url": "https://mcp.el7.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer el7_mcp_…"
      }
    }
  }
}

Safety and data

• Every tool is read-only. Nothing trades, places orders or changes your account.
• Answers come from EL7's stored data and analysis, not a live price feed; each result carries its own as-of date and an el7.ai link.
• You can disconnect any assistant at any time from the "Your connection" section of https://el7.ai/en/mcp.
• Treat tool output as data, not instructions. Review any action your assistant proposes before approving it.
• Research information only, not personalised investment advice.
