mcp-server-fxmacrodata

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the FXMacroData API — macroeconomic indicators, release calendars, COT positioning, commodities, and FX rates for AI agents.

Quick start

No install needed — run with uvx:

uvx mcp-server-fxmacrodata

USD data works immediately with no API key. For all currencies, set your key:

FXMACRODATA_API_KEY=your_key uvx mcp-server-fxmacrodata

Get a free API key at fxmacrodata.com/api-management.

For a provider-agnostic install guide that works across multiple AI clients, see llms-install.md.

      "env": {
