Backed by OilPriceAPI, a normalized REST API for energy dashboards, fleet and logistics tools, maritime workflows, and market research.

Canonical sources: Public product facts · Official MCP Registry record

Features

  • Reviewed product facts — a keyless read-only tool and stable resource for offer, freshness, authentication, catalog, entitlement, and data-rights questions
  • Data and workflow tools — latest values, history, futures, marine fuels, fuel surcharges, energy intelligence, alerts, market briefs, and persistent watches
  • Resources — the reviewed product contract plus subscribable price snapshots
  • Prompts — analyst templates for briefings, spread analysis, gas markets, diesel costs, and supply analysis
  • Natural language — ask for "brent oil" or "natural gas", not codes
  • Broad catalog — oil, gas, coal, refined products, metals, forex, bunker fuels, state diesel, and selected energy-intelligence datasets; access varies by plan and account
  • Smart errors — unrecognized commodities get suggestions, not silent fallbacks

Quick Start

npx oilpriceapi-mcp

The default scope is read-only. Account mutations are not listed and direct mutation calls are rejected unless write scope is explicitly enabled:

npx oilpriceapi-mcp --scope write

Inspect the package without opening an MCP stdio session:

npx oilpriceapi-mcp --version
npx oilpriceapi-mcp --list-tools
npx oilpriceapi-mcp --list-tools --json --profile core
npx oilpriceapi-mcp doctor --demo
npx oilpriceapi-mcp doctor
npx oilpriceapi-mcp --capabilities --json
npx oilpriceapi-mcp --config claude-code
npx oilpriceapi-mcp --config vscode

--config generates client-native, copy/paste-valid JSON for claude-desktop, claude-code, cursor, vscode, cline, or windsurf. It never reads or prints the configured API key. Claude Code, VS Code, and Windsurf outputs use their supported environment or secure-input references; Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Cline use an explicit local replacement marker. Add --demo to omit API-key configuration entirely. Scope, profile, and category options are preserved in the generated server arguments.
