What is the ECB Discovery — Universal Statistical Data Access MCP Server?
Universal access to all ECB data.
2 Tools
- List Dataflows — Complete catalog of ECB datasets
- Query Data — Any dataflow with custom SDMX keys
Built-in capabilities (2)
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
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

Frequently asked questions
What is SDMX?
SDMX (Statistical Data and Metadata eXchange) is an international standard for exchanging statistical data. The ECB, Eurostat, IMF, World Bank, and other institutions use SDMX for their APIs. Data is organized in dataflows → dimensions → observations.
Do I need an API key to access this data?
No, the ECB Statistical Data Warehouse public API is completely open and free. There is no authentication or token required to fetch any of the datasets provided.
How often is the statistical data updated?
The data is updated in real-time according to the ECB's official publishing schedule. Daily exchange rates typically update around 16:00 CET.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
