MCP Server Overview

The cahthuranag/mcp-server MCP server exposes AllRatesToday foreign-exchange data through four MCP tools. It can return current mid-market rates, preset historical series, multi-target lookups, and a cached list of supported ISO 4217 currencies. Without configuration, keyless mode provides ECB reference rates and currency metadata; an AllRatesToday API key adds live rates, history, and authenticated multi-target queries. Use it when an MCP-compatible client needs currency conversion or FX data without building a direct API integration.
