What this server can do
9 functions, named and described by the server itself. Parameter names are shown because they say more about what a function does than its name usually does.
get_auth_status- Whether this MCP connection has an ElkassabgiData API key configured (masked — the key itself is never echoed), and how to add one.
get_data_freshness(source)- Live per-source update status straight from the automated updater's ledger: last successful update, data frontier, and honest stale/failure flags (dates are NEVER fabricated — a silent upstream outage shows here as stale, not papered over). Free.
get_econ_series(date_to, max_rows, date_from, series_id)- Download an economic time series as rows (long format: date, value) with its citation and license. REQUIRES the free ElkassabgiData API key. Use date_from/date_to to window long series. Required: series_id.
get_econ_series_metadata(series_id)- Full metadata for one econ series: title, frequency, geography, unit, license (incl. commercial-use flag), attribution/citation, coverage dates. Free, no key needed. Required: series_id.
get_family_status- Live status of the whole ElkassabgiData family: both libraries' headline stats and data currency. Free.
get_hf_download_link(format, ticker, dataset, version)- Authenticated download instructions for HF Data Library's 1-minute OHLCV bars (full per-ticker history, 1,391 US stocks/ETFs, 2002→yesterday; parquet or csv) or the 25 pre-computed academic variables. Files are full-history (up to millions of rows) so they are fetched by YOUR code, not returned inline. Works with the same ElkassabgiData key. Required: ticker.
get_hf_variables_dictionary- The exact definitions/formulas of HF Data Library's 25 pre-computed academic variables (realized volatility family, spreads, jumps, liquidity, data-quality). Verbatim from the published dictionary. Free.
list_econ_sources(contains)- List the Econ Data Library's sources (309: statistical offices, central banks, IGOs, research datasets) with their licenses. Free.
search_econ_series(limit, query, source)- Search the Econ Data Library catalog (billions of series from 300+ sources: national accounts, prices, trade, labor, energy, markets…). Free, no key needed. Returns series ids usable with get_econ_series. Required: query.

Signals
These are separate measurements of different things. They are deliberately not combined into one score, because a popularity number that mixes website traffic with saves and stars cannot be checked or acted on.
| Signal | Value | What it measures | Window | Observed | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| GitHub stars | 1 | Number of GitHub accounts that bookmarked this repository since it was created. It is a bookmark count, not installs, not active users and not quality. | cumulative, all time | GitHub | |
| Last commit | 2026-08-06 | Date of the most recent push to any branch. This is the strongest cheap indicator of whether the project is still maintained. | point in time | GitHub | |
| Open issues | 1 | Open issues plus open pull requests, as GitHub counts them together. A high number can mean an active project or an abandoned one. | as of fetch | GitHub | |
| Latest published version | 1.0.1 | Latest version string the maintainer published to the registry. | as of fetch | Model Context Protocol | |
| Registry record last updated | 2026-07-22 | When the registry record was last updated by its maintainer. | point in time | Model Context Protocol | |
| First listed in the MCP Registry | 2026-07-22 | Date this server was first published to the official MCP Registry. Not a usage or quality measure. | point in time | Model Context Protocol | |
| repository status | active | The repository exists on GitHub and is not archived. This says nothing about how recently it was worked on. | as of fetch | GitHub | |
| mcp tools declared | 9 tools | Number of functions the server itself declared when asked to list them. This is what the server offers an agent, not a measure of how well any of them work. | as of probe | elkassabgidata-mcp.elkassabgi.workers.dev | |
| mcp endpoint status | ok | The server listed 9 functions when asked. | as of probe | elkassabgidata-mcp.elkassabgi.workers.dev |
