Please install the `alpha_vantage_mcp` MCP server into my current AI client (that's you).

Required prerequisites (do these first if not already done):
- **Get an Alpha Vantage API key** — Create or obtain your Alpha Vantage API key. It is required for both remote and local connection methods. (https://www.alphavantage.co/support/#api-key'}},{)

Canonical MCP server config (HTTP transport):
- url: `https://mcp.alphavantage.co/mcp?apikey=<your-api-key>`

Note: The README documents both remote HTTP and local stdio options. Per the portability rule, the remote HTTP connection is preferred and explicitly recommended in several client examples. The local alternative uses command `uvx` with args `["marketdata-mcp-server", "<your-api-key>"]` after installing `uv`.

Add this MCP server to my current client's config in the correct format for you. If you need secrets or credentials I haven't provided, ASK me — do not invent values or leave raw placeholders. After adding it, tell me how to verify the server is connected.
