## What tickerlayer does, in the publisher's words

An Agent Plugins 1.0.0 package that gives AI agents market data: it bundles the hosted TickerLayer MCP server with a market-data skill that teaches agents how to use it well.

- MCP server: https://mcp.tickerlayer.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP) with tools for quotes, last trades, snapshots, previous/settled closes, OHLCV history, symbol discovery, market status/sessions/holidays, and government bond yields.
- Coverage: crypto, forex, stocks, indices, ETFs, commodities, and bonds.
- Skill: skills/market-data/: tool selection guidance, symbol conventions (stocks are always COUNTRY:TICKER, e.g. US:AAPL), discovery-first workflow, market-calendar awareness, and error handling.
