Unit & FX Calculator

What is the Unit & FX Calculator MCP Server?

LLMs notoriously struggle with complex compound conversions (e.g. converting km/h to mph with specific decimal rounding). Worse, they hallucinate foreign exchange (FX) rates based on their historical training data rather than current markets. This MCP bridges that gap.

The Superpowers

  • Physical Determinism: Converts length, mass, volume, temperature, and speed using the exact mathematical engine of mathjs. Completely eliminates metric/imperial hallucination.
  • Live FX Rates: Uses the Frankfurter API to fetch the latest European Central Bank reference rates for absolutely precise currency conversion.
  • In-Memory Edge Cache: FX rates are cached in a native V8 Map for 1 hour, meaning massive batch conversions run instantly without getting rate-limited.

Built-in capabilities (3)

batch_convert

). Pass the value, source unit, and target unit for exact mathematical conversion. Converts multiple physical units in a single deterministic pass

convert_unit

Deterministically converts physical units (e.g. km/h to mph, celsius to fahrenheit)using mathjs

get_rate

Gets the exact foreign exchange rate between two currencies using Frankfurter API (1h cache)

Why VS Code Copilot?

GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Unit & FX Calculator data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 3 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.

  • VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor

  • Project-scoped MCP configs (.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access

  • Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop

  • GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How often are currency rates updated?

Rates are fetched live and cached for exactly 1 hour.

02

What physical units are supported?

Length, mass, volume, temperature, and speed are fully supported via mathjs.

03

Can it batch convert an array of data?

Yes, the batch processor can handle large JSON arrays instantly.

04

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

05

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

06

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

07

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.

08

MCP tools not available

Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
