get_rate
Get the official Bank of Russia exchange rate for a single currency on a given date (or the latest published date if 'on_date' is omitted). Returns nominal, value, per-unit rate and effective quote date.
LABSCO SUMMARY
Official Russian macro figures, straight from the source.
Rates, key rate and inflation usually arrive through a data vendor with a key and a quota. These come from the central bank's own endpoints with neither, and the snapshot tool answers where things stand in a single call.
What it is
A Python MCP server over the Central Bank of Russia's public endpoints, covering currency quotes, the key rate, CPI inflation and a combined macro snapshot. Five tools, open source, no API key.
What you get
- The official CBR rate for one currency on a given date, or the latest published one
- A rate series for one currency between two dates inclusive
- The CBR key rate as a time series over the range you ask for
- Monthly year-over-year CPI inflation as published by CBR
- A compact macro snapshot in one call: latest key rate, USD, EUR and CNY rates, and the latest YoY inflation with the period it covers
- A TTL cache — one hour for daily quotes, a full day for historical series — so repeat questions do not hit the source again
Requirements
A recent Python. Install with pipx install atomno-mcp-cbr-rates or uv tool install, then run atomno-mcp-cbr-rates, which speaks MCP over stdio. No API key and no account: it reads the official public CBR endpoints. Historical ranges are capped by the server.
Setup effort
One command — uvx atomno-mcp-cbr-rates
USE CASES
01
Converting at the official rate for a specific date
Ask for that currency on that day, rather than today's rate applied to an old invoice.
02
Charting how a currency moved over a period
Pull the series between two dates in one call instead of looping over days.
03
Following monetary policy
Read the key-rate series over the range in question, defaulting to the most recent stretch.
04
Putting a nominal figure in real terms
Get monthly year-over-year CPI inflation for the years the figure spans.
05
Getting the macro picture in one call
Key rate, the three main currency rates and latest inflation together, with the period each covers.
5 tools
Counted once with only startup setup. Other versions, modes or optional credentials may expose a different list.
