convert_currencyLABSCO SUMMARY
Exchange rates an assistant looks up rather than guesses.
Currency questions are exactly where a language model's training data goes stale silently. This connects the answer to Frankfurter's published rates — including rates on a chosen past date — with no key and no install.
What it is
A hosted MCP server for currency conversion and exchange rates, backed by the Frankfurter API. There is nothing to run: point a client at https://currency-mcp.wesbos.com/mcp.
What you get
- A direct conversion — amount, source currency, target currency, answer
- Today's rates against any base currency, optionally narrowed to the currencies you care about
- Historical rates for a specific date, so a past invoice or transaction can be valued as it stood then
- The full list of supported currency codes with their full names
- One endpoint,
/mcp, over streamable HTTP
Requirements
No account and no key — a single URL in your client config. Clients without streamable HTTP support can bridge to /mcp with npx mcp-remote.
Setup effort
Paste a URL — add the endpoint to your client
USE CASES
01
Answering what a price costs in your currency
Give the amount and the two currency codes and get the converted figure back at the current rate.
02
Valuing an invoice at the date it was issued
Ask for the rate on a specific date rather than today's, so a past transaction is stated at the rate that actually applied.
03
Reading a basket of currencies at once
Pull the latest rates for a base currency, narrowed to the handful of currencies your business touches.
04
Checking whether a currency is covered before you build on it
List the supported codes with their full names, so a three-letter code in a spreadsheet stops being a guess.
