ftd_security

Pack: sec-ftd · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/ftd_security for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Fails-to-deliver history for one US-listed security from the SEC’s CNS fails-to-deliver file, by ticker symbol. Returns each settlement date with the number of shares that failed to deliver, the closing price, the security description and its CUSIP. A fail-to-deliver is a settlement failure — shares not delivered on time — and the SEC states it is NOT evidence of naked short selling; ordinary causes include processing delays, order-entry errors and illiquidity. Answers “what were the fails-to-deliver for GME”, “has this stock had settlement failures recently”.

Parameters

symbolstringyesTicker symbol as SEC writes it, e.g. “GME”, “TSLA”.
periodsnumbernoHow many recent half-month files to search, 1-${MAX_PERIODS} (default 2, roughly the last month). SEC publishes one file per half month.
