Trades

com.potomacledger/trades

Connects Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client to live stock trade disclosures from Congress and executive branch officials via streamable HTTP. Exposes six operations: search_trades with filters for person, ticker, branch, conflict flags, and date ranges; get_person_trades and get_ticker_activity for drilling into specific officials or stocks; list_recent_trades and list_conflicts for monitoring; plus aggregates for totals and top sectors. Free tier covers 90 days of data, Pro ($35/month) unlocks the full archive of 26,000+ trades back to 2020. Responses include conflict flags when trades overlap committee or agency jurisdiction. Reach for this when you need to query official financial disclosures in natural language without scraping PDFs or maintaining your own database.
