## MCP tools (8)

### `get_company_facts` (~110 tokens)

List all XBRL taxonomies and concept tags filed by a company (CIK required). Returns entity name, taxonomy names (us-gaap, dei, etc.), concept count per taxonomy, and a sample of up to 20 tag names each. Use get_company_concept or get_company_financials to retrieve actual numeric values for a specific tag.

Input parameters:

- `cik` (string, required): SEC Central Index Key (e.g., "320193" for Apple, "789019" for Microsoft)

### `get_company_concept` (~148 tokens)

Get a specific financial metric for a company across all filings. Use this to track revenue, net income, or any XBRL tag over time. Example: get_company_concept(cik: "320193", taxonomy: "us-gaap", tag: "Revenue").

Input parameters:

- `cik` (string, required): SEC Central Index Key (e.g., "320193" for Apple)
- `tag` (string, required): XBRL concept tag (e.g., "Revenue", "NetIncomeLoss", "Assets", "EarningsPerShareBasic")
- `taxonomy` (string, required): XBRL taxonomy: "us-gaap", "ifrs-full", "dei", or "srt"

### `search_filings` (~102 tokens)

Search recent SEC filings for a company by CIK. Optionally filter by filing type (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, etc.). Returns filing dates, types, and accession numbers.

Input parameters:

- `cik` (string, required): SEC Central Index Key (e.g., "320193" for Apple)
- `type` (string): Filing type filter (e.g., "10-K", "10-Q", "8-K", "DEF 14A")

### `get_company_financials` (~272 tokens)

High-level summary of a public US company's annual (10-K) financials: revenue, net income, total assets, cash, EPS, etc. Returns clean numerical values with the XBRL tag used and the period-end date. By default returns the most recent fiscal year; pass `fiscal_year_end` to get a specific year (e.g. "2024-12-31" for Tesla FY2024 or just "2024" to auto-match the year). Prefer this over get_company_facts/get_company_concept for any single-company financial snapshot question. Pass a CIK (e.g. "320193") or a ticker (e.g. "AAPL"; auto-resolves to CIK).

Input parameters:

- `company` (string, required): CIK (e.g., "320193", "0000320193") OR ticker symbol (e.g., "AAPL", "TSLA", "MSFT"). Ticker is auto-resolved to CIK via SEC EDGAR.
- `fiscal_year_end` (string): Optional. Pass a 4-digit fiscal year ("2024") to get values from any 10-K period ending in that calendar year, OR a specific period-end date ("2024-12-31"). Omit to get the most recent fiscal year.

### `get_liquidity_runway` (~80 tokens)

Estimate a company’s mechanical liquidity runway from its latest SEC-tagged cash/current investments and trailing-twelve-month operating cash flow. This is a screening calculation—not management guidance—and excludes future financing, commitments, restricted access, working-capital timing, and forecast changes.

Input parameters:

- `company` (string, required): Ticker, company name, or CIK.

### `get_dilution_profile` (~74 tokens)

Summarize SEC-tagged common shares outstanding, approximate year-over-year share change, and reported equity issuance proceeds. Share-count dates need not equal quarter end, tags vary by filer, and this is not a fully diluted capitalization table.

Input parameters:

- `company` (string, required): Ticker, company name, or CIK.

### `get_rnd_burn_profile` (~71 tokens)

Calculate trailing-twelve-month SEC-tagged R&D expense and operating cash flow using annual plus current YTD minus prior-year comparable YTD. Returns the periods used and null when a defensible bridge cannot be built.

Input parameters:

- `company` (string, required): Ticker, company name, or CIK.

### `get_capital_markets_filings` (~190 tokens)

List recent SEC capital-markets filings for a company — shelf and IPO registrations (S-1, S-3, S-3ASR and the F- equivalents), 424 prospectuses, free-writing prospectuses, effectiveness notices and post-effective amendments. Answers "has this company filed a shelf", "what has it registered recently" and "is there an active ATM programme on file". A registration or prospectus filing is an event, so it does not prove securities were sold or quantify remaining shelf or ATM capacity, and an empty result covers only the years requested — a company may hold an effective shelf filed before that window.

Input parameters:

- `company` (string, required): Ticker, company name, or CIK.
- `limit` (number): 1–100 (default 25).
- `years` (number): Look-back, 1–10 years (default 3).

## Common questions

### What is the Sec Xbrl MCP server?

Sec Xbrl is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/sec-xbrl. SEC XBRL MCP, wraps SEC EDGAR XBRL API (data.sec.gov). This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-sec-xbrl).

### Is the Sec Xbrl MCP server safe to use?

Sec Xbrl scores 84 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 6 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Sec Xbrl MCP server expose?

Sec Xbrl exposes 8 tools: get_company_facts, get_company_concept, search_filings, get_company_financials, get_liquidity_runway, and 3 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,047 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Sec Xbrl MCP server still maintained?

Sec Xbrl is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 6 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the Sec Xbrl MCP server under?

Sec Xbrl declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Sec Xbrl MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Sec Xbrl, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
