Track full historical U.S. National Debt with the MCP Server

Need to model how much debt was owed during a specific period? Use `get_debt_history` via Copilot Chat.

This makes it easy to write historical comparisons—like tracking the debt through different economic cycles—without leaving VS Code.

Monitor total public debt status via MCP Server

The `get_national_debt` tool provides the U.S. national debt, updated daily to the penny. When you ask Copilot Chat for this, it gets the current total and breaks down exactly how that money is structured in the government's books. This gives your team immediate visibility into both public holdings and internal trust fund obligations.

Get real-time auction demand data

Want to know if investors are demanding U.S. debt? Running `get_treasury_auctions` pulls the bid-to-cover ratio for Bills, Notes, and Bonds. This tells you about investor confidence in a quick format. It's critical context that helps developers write accurate financial reporting tools.
