How to call it

The same tool through each route. MCP clients reach it through Strale’s server at https://api.strale.io/mcp; the call below is what the agent sends.

# Needs an API key. max_price_cents caps what this call may cost.
curl -X POST https://api.strale.io/v1/do \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $STRALE_API_KEY" \

Limitations

OTC and newly listed securities can be missing
Uses Yahoo Finance autocomplete — covers major exchanges globally but may miss OTC or very recently listed securities
What to do instead: For OTC securities, try searching by ISIN or check the specific exchange's website directly
