ausecon-mcp-server MCP server

ausecon is a Model Context Protocol server that gives any AI assistant clean, structured access to Australia’s core economic and financial data — straight from the ABS, RBA, and APRA.

Open · free · no API key — always fresh & fully source-traceable, three official sources in one shape.

Why this exists

Australian economic data is authoritative but awkward to reach — scattered across portals, formats, and identifiers you have to memorise. ausecon is the open, free, no-API-key way to put it in front of any AI assistant: every series comes back fresh and fully source-traceable, stamped with its provenance, in one consistent shape (metadata · series · observations) across all three regulators. Ask for “the cash rate” or “quarterly real GDP growth” and get research-grade data back without leaving the conversation.

What you get

🔒 Fresh & source-traceable Every value is fetched live and stamped with its provenance (`retrieved_at`, `source`, `server_version`). On an upstream outage, a cached fallback is always flagged `stale` — never served silently.	🧱 Three sources, one shape ABS, RBA and APRA all return the same tidy `metadata · series · observations` structure.	🧮 Transparent derived series Formula-based indicators like `real_cash_rate` — every calculation is open and inspectable.
🎯 Source-native control Drop down to raw `get_abs_data`, `get_rba_table` or `get_apra_data` whenever you need exact control.	⚡ Quick-turn helpers Convenience tools for latest observations, top movers and release events — analysis in one call.	🔌 Plugs into your client Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Codex or Smithery. stdio locally, Streamable HTTP when hosted.

Data sources

Source	Coverage
ABS · Australian Bureau of Statistics	National accounts, prices, labour force, population
RBA · Reserve Bank of Australia	Cash rate, monetary & financial aggregates, exchange rates
APRA · Aust. Prudential Regulation Authority	ADI & insurer statistics, with release-cadence estimates

Try it instantly (no install)

Prefer not to install anything? A hosted, read-only, no-API-key instance speaks MCP over Streamable HTTP at:

https://ausecon-mcp-server.onrender.com/mcp

Point any MCP client that supports remote (Streamable HTTP) servers at that URL — for example, in Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http ausecon https://ausecon-mcp-server.onrender.com/mcp

The hosted instance may take a few seconds to wake on the first request.

Install

The package lives on PyPI and is designed to be launched on demand by your MCP client via uvx:

uvx ausecon-mcp-server

The server speaks MCP over standard input/output. Launched on its own, it simply waits for a client to connect.

Connect your client

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport stdio ausecon -- uvx ausecon-mcp-server

Codex

codex mcp add ausecon -- uvx ausecon-mcp-server

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ausecon": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["ausecon-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (project):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ausecon": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["ausecon-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Or paste this one-click link into your browser:

Windsurf

Add to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ausecon": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["ausecon-mcp-server"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Install in VS Code

Or add to .vscode/mcp.json (workspace) or your user mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "ausecon": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["ausecon-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Hosting it instead? smithery.yaml and Dockerfile.smithery ship a Streamable HTTP deployment at /mcp. See the Smithery guide.

A quick taste

Find the concept you want, then ask for the series:

list_economic_concepts(query="cash rate")

get_economic_series(
    concept="cash_rate_target",
    start="2020-01-01",
)

Need a transparent, formula-based indicator? Call the derived surface directly:

get_derived_series(concept="real_cash_rate", last_n=12)

Connected to an AI agent, you can skip the syntax entirely — ask for “quarterly real GDP growth” and it maps your request to the right tool calls for you.

Develop locally

Python 3.12 is recommended; the CI matrix supports 3.10+.

uv sync --python 3.12 --extra dev
uv run pytest
