Econdata MCP — wraps BLS (Bureau of Labor Statistics) public API v2
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.
Tools
Tool | Description |
| Fetch any economic time series by ID (e.g., "CPUR0000SA0" for CPI, "LNS14000000" for unemployment). Returns historical data points with dates and values. |
| Get the US civilian unemployment rate over time (Bureau of Labor Statistics) — the percentage of the labor force currently unemployed. Use this for "unemployment rate" / "jobless rate" queries. Returns monthly values by year and month. |
| Current US inflation rate (CPI year-over-year) and Consumer Price Index history. Returns monthly index values with computed yoy_inflation_pct per month plus a latest summary — answers "what is the latest inflation rate" directly. |
| Get US non-farm payroll employment by industry (manufacturing, construction, retail, financial, government, etc.). Returns employment figures in thousands by period. |
