Central Bank Rates (AllRatesToday) tools (6)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • compare_official_rates

    Use this when the user wants one currency pair across ALL institutions at once — 'what does each central bank say USD/EUR is?', 'spread between official USD/LKR rates', 'which bank has the highest official rate for X?'. One call returns every covered bank's latest official rate for the pair plus spread stats { min, max, median, spread_bps } over fresh sources (stale quarterly publishers are return

  • get_official_rate_history

    Use this for a date-by-date series of one bank's OFFICIAL rates — 'ECB USD rate for every day of 2025', 'how did the CBSL official rate move last quarter'. Returns one row per published date: { series: [{ date, rate, rate_type, derived, method }] }. Give either `symbol` (matches either side of the pair vs the bank's home currency) or a source+target pair. Defaults to the last year when from/to omi

  • get_official_rates
  • get_publication_calendar

    Use this to see WHICH dates a bank actually published a rate table — 'did the ECB publish on 2026-01-01?', 'how often does the US Treasury publish?'. Returns dates only, no rate values, so it is available on every plan (unlike history). Gaps reveal weekends, holidays, and weekly/quarterly publication cadence. Give ?year=YYYY or a from/to range; large ranges are capped and flagged `truncated`.

  • list_central_banks

    Call this FIRST when you need a bank code, or when the user asks 'which central banks do you cover?' or 'do you have rates from X?'. Returns { banks: [{ code, name, country, home_ccy, rate_types, latest date, ... }], disclaimer } for 60+ institutions — central banks (ECB, Fed, BOJ, ...) plus tax authorities (HMRC, US Treasury, ...). The `code` field is what every other tool takes as its `bank` par

  • request_trial_key

    Self-issue an AllRatesToday API key with 100 lifetime calls, valid 7 days, with no account and no email. Use it when another tool answered "needs an API key" and the user wants a dated central-bank table, a history series, a cross-bank comparison or a publication calendar right now. The key is adopted by this server for the rest of the session and returned once — tell the user to put it in the MCP

Central Bank Rates MCP Server — @allratestoday/central-bank-mcp

Give your AI assistant the official exchange rates that compliance, tax, and accounting actually require. A Model Context Protocol server that lets Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible client fetch published central-bank and tax-authority rates from 60+ institutions — ECB, Fed, Bank of Japan, HMRC, US Treasury, and more — via the AllRatesToday API.

After installation, your assistant can answer questions like:

  • "What is the ECB's official USD/EUR rate today?"
  • "What HMRC rate should I use for this March invoice?"
  • "Show me the Bank of Japan's official rate for every day of Q1."
  • "Compare the official USD/LKR rate across every central bank that publishes one."

⚖️ Official rates vs mid-market rates

Everything this server returns is an official published rate: fixed once the institution publishes it, carrying that institution's own publication date — the number tax authorities, auditors, and customs require. It is not the live market rate. For live mid-market rates (price display, conversion, anything that should track the market), use the companion server @allratestoday/mcp-server. The two can diverge by several percent — pick by use case. Methodology: allratestoday.com/official-rates-methodology.

🚀 Why this server?

  • 🏛️ 100+ official sources — central banks (ECB, Fed, BOJ, SNB, RBI, …) plus tax authorities (HMRC, US Treasury, …), each served from its own published tables
  • 📅 Point-in-time correctness — ask for any date; weekends and holidays roll back to the rate legally in force, and the response tells you which publication date applied
  • 📊 Cross-bank comparison — one call returns every institution's rate for a pair, with min/max/median and spread stats
  • 🧮 Honest derivations — pairs a bank doesn't publish directly are cross-computed only within that bank's own table and flagged derived; banks are never mixed
  • 🔓 Works with no API key — installs and answers out of the box; the latest published table of every source is open
  • 🧰 Five focused tools — small surface, easy for the model to use correctly
  • 🔌 Works everywhere MCP does — stdio transport, MCP 1.x; Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, or any generic host

🔓 Keyless mode — what works with no setup

Install it with no configuration at all and it starts, connects, and answers:

The keyless path reads the open, edge-cached /api/open/central-bank/{bank} endpoint — free to use with a visible attribution link back to allratestoday.com (the exact wording ships in each response's attribution field).

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
