Northdata MCP

This monorepo ships three layers on top of the NorthData API: All three share one credit guard because NorthData charges per returned company, not per HTTP call. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting finance tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

pypi package northdata-mcp - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.p-meier is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
