# Massive

> Massive provides financial market data for stocks, options, indices, futures, forex, and crypto through a REST API, WebSocket streams, and S3 flat files.

## Getting started

Massive needs an API key. If the user doesn't have one (or you get a 401),
give them the signup link to register themselves:
https://massive.com/dashboard/signup

Their key is at https://massive.com/dashboard/keys. Have the user put it in the
MASSIVE_API_KEY env var and read it from there; don't ask them to paste
the key into chat or hardcode it.

Project H1
Massive

Opening blockquote

Massive provides financial market data for stocks, options, indices, futures, forex, and crypto through a REST API, WebSocket streams, and S3 flat files.

Context architecture

How the content is divided

5 H2 sections organize 248 parsed Markdown links. 246 links point to .md or .markdown paths; 2 link occurrences use another hostname. Linked destinations have not been recursively validated.

WebSocketLine 2423566901568

Link counts exclude parsed fenced and inline code and resolve relative destinations against the final endpoint. Section sizes cover the text below each H2 until the next H2.

Embedded material

Code, installation and API examples

Fenced blocks

Declared languages
No fenced blocks detected

0 detected in fenced or inline code
Authentication examples
0 fenced lines match API-key, Authorization, Bearer, OAuth or access-token patterns
HTTP request examples

Authentication links
0 links have authentication-related labels

Embedded example text and links to further documentation are counted separately. A code block does not establish that a sample runs or that an authentication flow succeeds.

Publisher prioritization

The Optional section

No H2 section named “Optional” was detected in this file.

The community proposal uses Optional by convention for secondary links that can be skipped for a shorter context. This label does not establish that everything outside it is critical, or that the material inside it is deprecated.

Machine-readable routes

MCP references and configuration text

MCP-related text was detected in the captured file. 1 links have MCP-related labels or paths. 0 fenced lines match mcpServers, mcp_servers or an mcp add command.

These are text and link observations. No MCP server connection, authentication or tool call was tested.

A verified text response establishes a companion at the checked URL. It does not prove the bundle contains all product documentation, that generation is automated, or that it fits an assistant’s context window.

Change evidence

What can be said about freshness

This capture establishes a baseline. Update frequency cannot be determined from one observation.

Linked release and migration material

2 links have release, changelog, deprecation or migration terms in their labels or paths. These provide places to investigate product changes separately.

File changes can reveal documentation edits or navigation changes. They do not by themselves measure product release velocity, accuracy, agent adoption or AI visibility.

Counts use a deterministic parser, not a spec-compliance grade. Unusual Markdown and indented code can fall outside its recognized patterns. See the llms.txt proposal and tokenizer implementation.
