Install on Claude Code

Prerequisites

Claude Code installed
An Arrays API key from arrays.org

1. Clone the Skills repo

git clone https://github.com/ArraysData/arrays-skills.git

2. Point Claude Code at the Skills

In your project, create or edit .claude/CLAUDE.md and reference the Skills directory:

# Project context

Use these Arrays Skills when answering financial-data questions:

@/absolute/path/to/arrays-skills/skills/

Or symlink the skills/ folder into your project root so the path is relative and portable across machines.

3. Set your API key

Add to your shell config (~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc):

export ARRAYS_API_KEY="your_key_here"
export ARRAYS_API_BASE_URL="https://data-tools.prd.arrays.org/api"

Reload: source ~/.zshrc

4. Try it

In Claude Code, ask:

What was AAPL's revenue and net income last quarter?

Claude should automatically pick the arrays-data-api-equity-fundamentals Skill, call the company/income-statements endpoint, and return real numbers.

Troubleshooting

Claude doesn't seem to use the Skills

Verify CLAUDE.md is in the project root or .claude/ folder, and that the path inside it is absolute or correctly resolved. Try running claude --debug to see which context files are loaded.

'Unauthorized' or 401 error

Check echo $ARRAYS_API_KEY is set in the same shell session where Claude Code runs. If you opened Claude Code from a GUI, export the var system-wide or use a .env file at the project root.
