Category Data and Analytics
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security77
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Partial
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root. View diagnostics → Pass
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability67
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1091 tokens (~181/item across 6 items; 6 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management50
- Stability observed for 15 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
compare_countries Compare countries ~117
Returns one value of one indicator for up to 20 countries or regions: for the given year, or the latest observed value in each country when no year is given. Each value has its own period and chart link; projections are labelled. Codes without data are listed separately.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| countries | array | yes | ISO3 codes of the countries or regions to compare. |
| indicator | string | yes | Indicator slug from search_indicators, for example cpi-inflation. |
| year | – | – | Calendar year. Omit for the latest observed value. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_full_series Get full indicator history ~215
Returns the whole history of one indicator for one country or region, up to 1500 values per call, for people signed in to EconDash with full data access; other signed-in accounts get as many values as get_indicator_series. Needs sign-in to EconDash. Without years: the history up to the latest observed value, with the nearest projection in next_projection. With start_year and/or end_year: the values in that range, the latest ones and truncated true when it holds more. Same fields as get_indicator_series. Country is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| country | string | yes | ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code, for example USA, DEU, ARG, or WLD for the world. |
| end_year | – | – | Last calendar year of the series; projections up to this year are included. |
| indicator | string | yes | Indicator slug from search_indicators, for example cpi-inflation. |
| start_year | – | – | First calendar year of the series. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_indicator_details Get indicator details ~65
Returns the description, unit, frequency, source, publisher, licence, attribution text, coverage in years and countries, and the time of the last data change for one indicator.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| indicator | string | yes | Indicator slug from search_indicators, for example cpi-inflation. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_indicator_series Get indicator series ~310
Returns values of one indicator for one country or region. A call returns at most 30 annual, 40 quarterly, 120 monthly, 52 weekly, 250 daily values (about 30 years of annual data, 10 years of quarterly or monthly, one year of weekly or daily). Without years: the latest observed values. With start_year and/or end_year: the values in that range; when the range holds more, the latest ones are returned and truncated is true. With year: one value for that year (the last period of that year for monthly or quarterly data). Includes the unit, source, licence, the range of periods with data and a link to the EconDash chart page that shows the full history. Projections such as IMF forecasts are labelled; without end_year or year, the series stops at the latest observed value and the nearest projection comes in a separate next_projection field. Country is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| country | string | yes | ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code, for example USA, DEU, ARG, or WLD for the world. |

Use it when the user asks for a statistic for a country or region: its latest value, history or a comparison. Returns up to 25 matches with the slug, name, unit, frequency, source and years covered. The slug is the input for get_indicator_series, compare_countries and get_indicator_details. The catalogue has no series for individual shares or cryptocurrencies (only the Crypto Fear & Greed Index), tax rates, steel or the Baltic Dry Index.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | – | Maximum number of results. |
| query | string | yes | Words to search for, for example 'inflation' or 'gdp per capita'. |

How do I install the EconDash MCP server?
EconDash is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.econdash.org/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

What is the EconDash MCP server?
EconDash is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as org.econdash/econdash. Free, read-only economic indicators for any country from the World Bank, IMF, FRED, OECD and others. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.econdash.org/mcp).
Is the EconDash MCP server safe to use?
EconDash scores 78 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.
What tools does the EconDash MCP server expose?
EconDash exposes 6 tools: search_indicators, get_indicator_series, get_full_series, compare_countries, get_indicator_details, list_countries. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 952 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Does the EconDash MCP server require authentication?
No. We connected to EconDash without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.
Is the EconDash MCP server still maintained?
EconDash is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 4 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
