# Longbridge Developers Platform

Full-stack financial data and trading platform: CLI, Python/Rust/Go SDK, MCP, and LLM integration.

**Official docs:** https://open.longbridge.com
**llms.txt:** https://open.longbridge.com/llms.txt

For setup and authentication details, see [references/setup.md](references/setup.md).

## Data Query Priority

**Always use the CLI for data queries. Use MCP only if the CLI cannot fulfill the request.**

**CLI covers** (use these first):
- Market data: quotes, K-line history, intraday, extended hours
- News, filings, topics, market sentiment
- Account: positions, portfolio, assets, orders, statements
- Institutional: investors (SEC 13F), insider trades

**Fall back to MCP only when:**
- `longbridge --help` confirms no command exists for the required data
- The user's environment has no CLI installed or accessible

---

## Investment Analysis Workflow

When the user asks about stock performance, portfolio advice, or market analysis:

1. **Get live data** via CLI — quotes, positions, K-line history, intraday. CLI first; MCP only if CLI can't cover it.
2. **Get news/catalysts** via CLI — **prefer Longbridge first**; fall back to WebSearch only if insufficient
3. **Combine** — price action + volume + catalyst → analysis + suggestion

```bash
# Market data
longbridge quote SYMBOL.US
longbridge positions                # stock positions
longbridge portfolio                # P/L, asset distribution, holdings, cash (always pull when user asks about "my portfolio")
longbridge kline history SYMBOL.US --start YYYY-MM-DD --end YYYY-MM-DD --period day
longbridge intraday SYMBOL.US

# News & content (prefer these over WebSearch)
longbridge news SYMBOL.US           # latest news articles
longbridge news detail <id>         # full article content
longbridge filing SYMBOL.US         # regulatory filings list (8-K, 10-Q, 10-K, etc.)
longbridge topic SYMBOL.US          # community discussion
longbridge market-temp              # market sentiment index (0–100)

# Account
longbridge assets                   # full asset overview: cash, buying power, margin, risk level
longbridge statement --help         # check subcommands for statement export options

# Institutional investors (SEC 13F)
longbridge investors                # top active fund managers by AUM
longbridge investors <CIK>          # holdings for a specific investor by CIK
longbridge insider-trades SYMBOL.US # SEC Form 4 insider transaction history
```

For commands with complex flags, always run `longbridge <command> --help` for current options.

Only fall back to WebSearch when Longbridge news is insufficient (e.g., breaking news not yet indexed, macro events unrelated to a specific symbol).
