uv sync

# linux/macOS
export API_KEYS=<AN_API_KEY>
# windows
set API_KEYS=<AN_API_KEY>

uv run fastapi dev main.py

VS Code MCP configuration (mcp.json):

{
    "inputs": [
        {

Deploy to Azure Container Apps

az containerapp up -g <RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME> -n stock-mcp --environment mcp -l westus --env-vars API_KEYS=<AN_API_KEY> --source .

If the deployment is successful, the Azure CLI returns the URL of the app. You can use this URL to connect to the server from Visual Studio Code.
