Type-safe market quotes for Pydantic AI

Every call to `get_stock_quote` or `get_crypto_quote` gets validated against your Pydantic models. If the API response format changes, your agent fails safely instead of using garbage data. This ensures your agent's logic remains sound. You define the schema, and the MCP Server provides the data that matches it exactly.

Verified financial reporting in Pydantic AI

Use `get_stock_financials` to pull balance sheets and income statements into your agent. Pydantic AI checks the fields at runtime to prevent hallucinated values. Your agent processes only the data that passes your strict validation rules. It removes the risk of silent corruption during your financial analysis tasks.

Strict event tracking for Pydantic AI

Fetch `get_upcoming_earnings` and `get_stock_news` to keep your agent informed. Your Pydantic models verify the payload structures before the agent draws any conclusions. It makes your agent reliable. You get a clear error if the data is missing or malformed, keeping your entire pipeline predictable.

Setup guide

Set up IEX Cloud MCP in Pydantic AI

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
pydantic-ai-slim[fastmcp] package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install Pydantic AI with FastMCP
Run pip install "pydantic-ai-slim[fastmcp]". The FastMCP toolset replaces the deprecated MCPServerHTTP class with full protocol support.
2

Configure the FastMCPToolset
Pass a JSON-style config dict to FastMCPToolset with your Vinkius URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. Supports Streamable HTTP, SSE, and Stdio transports.
3

Create and run your agent
Pass the toolset to Agent(toolsets=[toolset]) and call agent.run(). Swap openai:gpt-4o for any supported model — Anthropic, Google, Mistral, or Groq.

agent.py

from pydantic_ai import Agent
from pydantic_ai.toolsets.fastmcp import FastMCPToolset

toolset = FastMCPToolset({
    "mcpServers": {

            "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
        }
    }
})

    system_prompt="You have access to IEX Cloud tools.",
)

result = await agent.run("List recent IEX Cloud transactions")
print(result.output)
