Imf MCP Server

List IMF SDMX dataflows available on the portal. Entry point for every query: imf_get_database and imf_query_dataset both require a dataflow id obtained here. Vintage (historical snapshot) dataflows such as WEO_2025_OCT_VINTAGE are excluded by default; set include_vintages=true to include them. Results are paged — 50 per call by default and at most 200, adjustable with limit and offset — and t

Fetch a dataflow's dimension list with a codelist preview for each dimension. Resolves human-readable terms to SDMX codes (e.g. "United States" → USA, "Constant prices" → NGDP_RPCH). Required before imf_query_dataset — SDMX keys are opaque without codelist lookups. Each codelist is capped at the first 50 entries by default, including previews filtered by codelist_filter. Set dimension_id to

Query an IMF SDMX dataflow by dimension key over a time range. Returns observations with time_period, value, and status, plus the unit, scale, and decimals of each series — a key resolving to several series carries one entry per series in series_metadata, since unit and scale differ between them. An index series also carries the reference_period it is based on (e.g. 2010A, 2010=100) exactly as p

List DataCanvas tables and columns staged by a prior imf_query_dataset call. Returns each table's name, row count, and column schema (name + DuckDB type). Required before imf_dataframe_query to discover the table and column names for SQL.

Run a read-only SQL SELECT against a DataCanvas table staged by imf_query_dataset. Supports multi-country comparisons, time-series aggregation, and cross-indicator joins. Requires imf_dataframe_describe first to discover table and column names. One SELECT statement per call; a leading WITH … SELECT (CTE) is accepted. DML and DDL are rejected.
