Available tools 11

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

verify

verify_claims

Fact-check a whole draft or report in one call instead of calling verify_stat once per figure: extract every checkable macro claim from the text — indicator + country + period + claimed value — and submit them together. Each claim gets the same verdict engine as verify_stat (match, close, mismatch, cannot_verify, with diagnostics), and every verified result carries the full citation for the official number. Accepts 1–15 claims per call (free-tier subrequest budget) — split larger drafts into multiple calls of up to 15. Results come back in input order with a verdict-count summary; a claim that cannot be resolved (unknown indicator or country) reports its error in place without sinking the rest of the batch.

verify_stat

Check a claimed economic figure (from a draft, article, or memory) against the official statistical series and get a verdict: match, close, mismatch, or cannot_verify — with the official value, the difference, diagnostics for classic errors (wrong year, percent-vs-decimal, unit scaling), and a full citation for the correct number. Use this before publishing any economic statistic in a report, brief, or article.

convert

fx_convert

Convert an amount between currencies using ECB daily reference rates (~30 majors, any date since 1999) or, for ~90 other currencies (BBD, XCD, JMD, KES, …), official annual-average rates from the World Bank — with the method and citations stated explicitly. Pass date='YYYY-MM-DD' for daily or 'YYYY' for annual-average conversion.

country

country_snapshot

One call for a country's headline economic picture: GDP, GDP growth, GDP per capita, inflation, unemployment, population, current account, trade openness, FDI, life expectancy (World Bank) plus general government debt (IMF DataMapper API, current vintage). Each value carries its own citation. Ideal for country briefs and report openers.

fetch

fetch

Fetch full data for a result id returned by search (format: 'indicator/<key>/<ISO3>'). Returns the recent observations and the full citation as text.

indicator

get_indicator

Get official values for a common economic indicator — inflation, GDP growth, GDP, GDP per capita, unemployment, population, government debt, fiscal balance, current account, trade, FDI, and more — for any country. Returns the observations plus a full citation (source, dataset, series id, canonical URL, license, retrieval date) ready to cite in a report. Use ISO3 codes or plain country names. Start here for most questions; use search_indicators if unsure of the indicator key.

indicators

search_indicators

Search StatCite's curated indicator registry (World Bank WDI + IMF DataMapper/WEO/Fiscal Monitor) by topic — 'inflation', 'debt', 'unemployment', 'poverty' — and discover additional DBnomics datasets. Returns indicator keys usable with get_indicator/verify_stat, with units and source notes.

inflation

inflation_adjust

Convert a nominal amount between years using official CPI: 'what is 100 (1995) worth in 2025 money?' Works for any country with CPI data (default USA). Returns the adjusted amount, the exact index values and formula used, and the citation. Annual-average precision.

search

Search official economic statistics by free text, e.g. 'inflation barbados' or 'government debt japan'. Returns result ids that can be passed to fetch. Designed for deep-research connectors; for richer control use get_indicator / get_series.

series

get_series

Fetch any supported series by explicit id: 'worldbank/<WDI code>' (needs country), 'imf/<CODE>' (needs country; current-vintage IMF WEO/Fiscal Monitor via the DataMapper API), or 'dbnomics/<PROVIDER>/<DATASET>/<SERIES>' (IMF WEO, OECD, Eurostat and more via DBnomics — dated editions, e.g. 'WEO:2025-04', for vintage-pinned reproducibility). 'fred/<SERIES>' ids are recognized only so the service can return an explanatory disabled response — FRED is permanently disabled here and those ids are never retrievable. Supports year filters and transforms (yoy, pct_change, index). Every response carries a full citation. Prefer get_indicator for common indicators.

sources

list_sources

The official sources behind StatCite (World Bank WDI, IMF WEO & Fiscal Monitor via the IMF DataMapper API — with DBnomics as a vintage-pinned fallback, ECB reference rates, FRED disabled), what each covers, its license, and the attribution line to use when citing.

Statcite — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Statcite do?

It exposes 11 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: country_snapshot, fetch, fx_convert, get_indicator, get_series, inflation_adjust and 5 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Statcite working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 109 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Statcite?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Statcite need an API key?

No. Statcite completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 11 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Statcite?

It answers our handshake in 109 ms on average, which is faster than 81% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Statcite open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
