Public Finance MCP Server — SEC EDGAR filings, US Treasury rates, BLS labor statistics, and economic indicators in one MCP server. Zero API keys required.

Why This Exists

Existing SEC EDGAR MCP servers only cover filings. Existing FRED servers require API keys. No MCP server combines SEC EDGAR + US Treasury rates + BLS labor stats into one unified interface with zero configuration.

PublicFinance MCP gives AI agents access to the entire US public financial data landscape — company filings, yield curves, unemployment data, CPI, and more — all from free government APIs.
