Validate payroll data at runtime with Pydantic AI

The `get_nonfarm_payrolls` tool fetches the raw CES0000000001 series, and the Pydantic AI framework validates it against strict schemas before your agent processes it. This MCP Server ensures your economic models never ingest malformed labor data. If the government API returns unexpected fields, your Pydantic AI system fails loudly. Silent errors are blocked from corrupting your interest rate forecasting models.

Safe bulk lookbacks with explicit typing

The `query_bls` tool executes up to 50 concurrent series queries without worrying about raw JSON parsing in Pydantic AI. Every timeseries point is mapped directly to a typed Python model. Your agent uses the tool to pull key indicators, knowing exactly what data types to expect. No more debugging missing fields in your production economic pipelines.

Model-agnostic labor market analysis

This MCP Server exposes `get_nonfarm_payrolls` to any LLM provider you choose through Pydantic AI. You can use OpenAI, Anthropic, or local models while keeping your payroll tool calls perfectly typed. The framework handles the conversion behind the scenes. Your agent focuses on interpreting the wage trends, while the system handles the strict validation.
