Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 10 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Comparing fuel and oil prices used to be a nightmare of tabs and spreadsheets.

Today, if you need the price spread between WTI crude and diesel, you open three different browser tabs: one for energy news, one for commodity exchanges, and another for refined products. You spend fifteen minutes copy-pasting data into a single spreadsheet just to calculate the margin—a process prone to human error.

With this MCP server, you ask your agent once. It runs both `get_wti_price` and `get_diesel_price`. The result is an instant, clean comparison delivered directly back to you. No clicking, no copy-pasting.

Using the OilPriceMCP Server: Get Structured Commodity Data.

Manual tracking requires logging into multiple provider dashboards and manually recording daily data points for different commodities. This is slow, expensive, and impossible to scale across dozens of assets.

Now you get structured JSON outputs from tools like `get_past_month_prices`. You're getting machine-readable time series data that your agent can instantly analyze and summarize in plain English.

What your AI can actually do with this

OilPrice API - Track WTI & Brent Commodity Prices

This server gives your agent instant access to real-time and historical data for over 50 energy commodities. You're pulling live market intelligence directly into your AI workflow, making sure you don't gotta rely on old spreadsheets or slow feeds. It covers everything from crude oil benchmarks to refined fuels like diesel.

Getting Current Prices: Snapshot Data

To get a quick read on the market, you can use get_latest_prices. This single call returns the most current spot prices for every energy commodity supported by the API. Need to focus just on the big players? You've got targeted tools ready. Calling get_wti_price pulls the immediate spot price for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil, which is the main US benchmark.

For international tracking, use get_brent_price to get the current spot rate for Brent crude oil, a key global trading standard. You can also pull specific refined fuel pricing; just call get_diesel_price for the latest US Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) price, which is crucial if you're tracking transportation costs. If you need Natural Gas rates right now, get_natural_gas_price retrieves the Henry Hub spot price.

It’s simple—you tell your agent what commodity you want, and it gives you that live number.

Analyzing Market Movements: Time-Based Data

If current prices aren't enough, you gotta know what happened leading up to this moment. For short-term volatility, get_past_day_prices gathers hourly price data, showing exactly how commodities moved over the last 24 hours. You can check out medium-range trends too: calling get_past_week_prices provides daily closing prices for commodity movements covering seven days.

If you need a deeper dive into recent history, get_past_month_prices collects daily price data spanning the last 30 days.

For custom analysis—say, checking prices from Q2 of last year through early June—you use get_historical_prices. This function lets your agent pull detailed price records for any specific start date and end date range. Note: Using this historical tool requires the paid tier access.

Discovering What's Available: The Commodity List

Don't know what commodity codes you need? Run list_commodities. This function returns a comprehensive list of every energy product, confirming all 50+ available commodities and their unique API codes. You can then pass these exact codes to any other tool.

Putting It Together: Workflow Examples

You don't gotta run five separate calls just to analyze one week. Your agent handles that complexity for you. If you need a full picture, you might first call list_commodities to confirm the code for 'Junk Fuel'. Then, you can use get_historical_prices with that specific code and a custom date range to plot its movement.

You could follow up by calling get_latest_prices just to see where the market is standing right now compared to last Tuesday's price point.

It’s about layering data: pulling the current spot rate via get_wti_price, then running get_past_day_prices to map out the hourly swings, and finally using get_historical_prices on a custom date range for long-term context. Your agent structures this data so you can analyze market dynamics immediately, all without leaving your chat environment.

Questions you might have

How often are oil and gas prices updated? +

Oil, gas, and refined product prices (WTI, Brent, Natural Gas, Diesel, Gasoline, etc.) are updated every 5 minutes during market hours. Coal prices update daily. This ensures you have near real-time data for trading decisions and cost monitoring.

How do I get an OilPriceAPI key and what does the free trial include? +

Visit https://oilpriceapi.com/ and sign up for a free account. The 7-day free trial includes 10,000 API requests, access to all 50+ commodities, all endpoints (latest, past day, past week, past month), and no credit card required. After the trial, paid plans start at $15/month. Rate limit on free tier: 60 requests/minute.

What commodity codes are available? +

The API offers 50+ energy commodities. Key codes include: WTI_USD (WTI Crude), BRENT_CRUDE_USD (Brent Crude), NATURAL_GAS_USD (Henry Hub Gas), DIESEL_USD (Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel), GASOLINE_USD (RBOB Gasoline), HEATING_OIL_USD (No. 2 Heating Oil), JET_FUEL_USD (Aviation Fuel/Kerosene), COAL_USD (Newcastle Thermal Coal). Use the list_commodities tool to see the full catalog.

Can I access historical price data for trend analysis? +

Yes! The free tier includes past_day (24h hourly), past_week (7d daily), and past_month (30d daily) endpoints. For custom date ranges beyond 30 days, use the get_historical_prices tool which requires a paid subscription. This is ideal for long-term trend analysis, backtesting trading strategies, and academic research.

How do I compare WTI and Brent benchmarks using `get_latest_prices`? +

You must call the tool for both commodity codes: WTI_USD and BRENT_CRUDE_USD. This lets your agent calculate the current 'spread' between the two. Monitoring this spread is essential because it indicates global supply tension or US inventory changes.

What’s the difference between `get_past_day_prices` and `get_past_week_prices`? +

Use get_past_day_prices when you need granular, hourly data for intraday volatility over 24 hours. For a wider view, run get_past_week_prices; this delivers daily closing prices across the last seven days.

How do I track specific fuel costs using `get_diesel_price`? +

This tool gives you the current US Diesel price, which is vital for logistics and procurement teams. You can immediately check if refined product margins are tightening or widening compared to crude oil benchmarks.

What should I do if a commodity code fails when calling `get_latest_prices`? +

If you get an error, first verify the spelling of your desired commodity_code. Always cross-reference codes against the output from the list_commodities tool. This resolves most API connection or syntax issues.
