GDP, unemployment, CPI, interest rates, and 800K+ economic time series from the Federal Reserve
Nobody here has read this server's code, because it publishes none. The description above is the maker's own, from the registry. A connection test shows whether it answers and what tools it says it has; it never calls a tool, so it cannot show what one does with your data.
Where it sits in the directory's order
What can be seen from outside, weighed as the directory publishes.
Observable signals: 30 of 100 points (at most 60 here)
| Input | Points | What was seen |
|---|---|---|
| Source published | held at 0 | No entry here publishes source: that is what puts it in this directory. |
| Licence stated | held at 0 | With no files, there is nothing for a licence to be stated in or held against. |
| Advisory state | held at 0 | Advisory databases index packages, and these entries publish none, so there is nothing to look up. |
| Auth declared | 0 of 15 | The registry entry declares no key. That is what it declares, not a finding that it has no protection. |

The tools it lists (5, as of 4 days ago)
The tool-description rules found nothing in these descriptions. They look for instructions aimed at a model and for hidden characters; they cannot see what a tool does when it runs.
search_seriesSearch for FRED economic data series by keyword. Use this to find series IDs for economic indicators. For example, search 'unemployment rate' to find UNRATE, or 'gross domestic product' to find GDP. Returns series metadata including ID, title, frequency, units, and date range. Common series: UNRATE (unemployment), GDP (gross domestic product), CPIAUCSL (consumer price index), FEDFUNDS (federal funds rate), MORTGAGE30US (30-year mortgage rate), MEHOINUSA672N (median household income). Args: search_text: Keywords to search for (e.g. 'unemployment rate',
get_series_observationsGet time series observations (data points) for a FRED series. Returns the actual data values for an economic indicator over time. Use search_series first to find the series_id, or use well-known IDs like UNRATE, GDP, CPIAUCSL, FEDFUNDS, MORTGAGE30US. For state unemployment, use state abbreviation + 'UR' (e.g. WAUR for Washington, CAUR for California). Results are sorted most-recent-first. For long series (e.g. daily data since 1954), use start_date/end_date to narrow the window or increase the limit up to 10000. Args: series_id: FRED series ident
get_series_infoGet metadata and details for a specific FRED series. Returns comprehensive information about a series including its title, frequency, units, seasonal adjustment, source, and date range. Use this to understand what a series measures before pulling observations. Args: series_id: FRED series identifier (e.g. 'UNRATE', 'GDP', 'CPIAUCSL').
get_category_seriesGet all FRED series within a specific category. FRED organizes data into a hierarchy of categories. Use this to browse available series within a topic area. Common category IDs: - 32991: Money, Banking, & Finance - 10: Population, Employment, & Labor Markets - 32992: National Accounts (GDP) - 1: Production & Business Activity - 32455: Prices (CPI, PPI) - 97: Housing Args: category_id: FRED category identifier (integer).
How this entry becomes a listing
For the maker. The catalogue lists what it can read, and this server publishes nothing to read yet. There are two routes, and only the first is open today.
Publish the source Open today
- Put the server's source in a public repository on github.com, with a licence.
- Keep a server.json in that repository naming this server,
com.olyport/fred, and declare the repository in it:"repository": { "url": "https://github.com/owner/repo", "source": "github" }, adding"subfolder"when the server lives in a folder. - Publish that version to the official MCP registry.
- The nightly registry sweep records the declaration. This page stays, dated, and says the source is declared but not yet read.
- The catalogue reads declared repositories at a pinned commit, in batches run by hand, and lists the servers that meet the batch's rules (among them a server.json at that commit naming the server, an https endpoint and a licence). When it lists this server, this page links to the listing. There is no schedule, so no date can be promised.
