How to Set Up and Use MaverickMCP
MaverickMCP is a personal stock analysis MCP server that brings professional-grade financial intelligence to Claude Desktop, exposing 39+ tools for stock data retrieval, technical indicator calculation, portfolio management, backtesting, sector analysis, and multi-agent research. It comes pre-seeded with all 520 S&P 500 stocks and uses the Tiingo API for market data, VectorBT for backtesting, and optional integrations with OpenRouter (400+ AI models), Exa web search, FRED economic data, and Reddit/X sentiment via Adanos. Individual investors and quant enthusiasts use it to conduct institutional-quality analysis — running momentum backtests, screening for opportunities, and managing portfolios — entirely through natural language in Claude.

Installation fails with 'TA-Lib not found' or similar build errors
The TA-Lib Python package requires the native C library to be installed first. On macOS run 'brew install ta-lib' before 'uv sync'. On Ubuntu/Debian run 'sudo apt-get install libta-lib-dev'. Then retry 'uv sync'.
Stock data tools return empty results or 'authentication failed'
TIINGO_API_KEY is required for all market data. Register for a free account at tiingo.com, copy your API key, and set it in .env as TIINGO_API_KEY=your-key. Make sure the .env file is in the maverick-mcp project root.
Claude Desktop on Windows fails to launch the server
There is a known issue with 'cwd' handling on Windows when using uv. Wrap the command: set 'command' to 'cmd.exe' and 'args' to ['/c', 'cd /d C:\path\to\maverick-mcp && uv run python -m maverick_mcp.api.server --transport stdio'].
