FRED MCP

An MCP server for the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis's FRED API that allows agents to search and read 800,000+ U.S. and international time series. It supports querying ALFRED vintage data to see economic numbers as they were originally published before revisions, including revision history and release calendars. The server is read-only, uses a volatility-aware cache, and requires a free FRED API key.
