FinXData Financial Data Query

What It Solves

In agent-based finance workflows, data queries often fail for practical reasons: endpoint capability is unclear, market, sector, stock, macro, and notice endpoints are separated, and mixed authentication makes it easy to treat key-based or agent-free endpoints as unlimited. FinXData organizes these endpoints into one query flow, covering index or sector prices, latest stock quotes, hot sectors, dragon-tiger lists, news/notice/market tracking, China macro reports and data calendars, concise financial results, and ontology summaries.

How It Works

The skill distinguishes access modes: health and summary can run without an API key; regular data endpoints require FINXDATA_API_KEY, while stock search needs a key but does not consume account quota; agent-free endpoints do not need a key but require --agent-type or FINXDATA_AGENT_TYPE. Use the narrowest endpoint and fewest parameters, batch multiple code values for quotes, and handle failures by reading script code and message values, respecting Retry-After instead of immediately rerunning the same command.

Boundaries

Agent-free endpoints are not deducted from account quota, but they are still subject to per-IP daily limits and server-side rate protection. On 429, timeout, or 5xx, stop appending diagnostic calls to health, summary, or nearby endpoints unless the user explicitly asks for diagnosis. Returned content should be treated as endpoint data, parameters, and update-time semantics, not investment advice.
