ECB Discovery — Universal Statistical Data Access MCP Tools for Windsurf (2)
These 2 tools become available when you connect ECB Discovery — Universal Statistical Data Access to Windsurf via MCP:
list_dataflows
Each dataflow has a code (e.g., EXR, FM, BSI) and description. Use these codes with the generic query tool to access any ECB data. List all available ECB statistical dataflows
query_ecb_data
Provide the dataflow code (EXR, FM, BSI, YC, MIR, BKN, etc.) and a SDMX series key. Use list_dataflows to find dataflow codes. Example: dataflow=EXR, key=D.USD.EUR.SP00.A for daily USD/EUR rate. Query any ECB dataset with a SDMX series key — universal access
Example Prompts for ECB Discovery — Universal Statistical Data Access in Windsurf
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Windsurf agent to start working with ECB Discovery — Universal Statistical Data Access immediately.
"What ECB datasets are available?"
"Query the Balance Sheet Items (BSI) dataset."
