  1. 01Retrieve official rates for all currencies on a date
  2. 02Query rates and history for one currency
  3. 03Get M0 through M3 monetary aggregates
  4. 04Retrieve international reserve asset data

Use cases

  1. 01Check official Ukrainian hryvnia exchange rates
  2. 02Analyze monthly changes in money supply
  3. 03Review the composition and changes of reserves

MCP support

As an MCP server, it exposes tools for National Bank of Ukraine exchange rates, monetary aggregates, and international reserve statistics. It can run through the Pipeworx gateway or locally over stdio.

Configuration

Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) public statistics MCP. Keyless.

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1683+ live data sources.

Tools

ToolDescription
nbu_exchange_ratesOfficial NBU exchange rates for ALL currencies on a single day (the rate the National Bank of Ukraine sets daily). Returns one record per currency: {r030 (numeric currency code), txt (Ukrainian name), rate (UAH per 1 unit of the currency), cc (ISO-4217 code, e.g. USD/EUR/PLN), exchangedate (DD.MM.YYYY)}. Omit date for today's rates.
nbu_currency_rateOfficial NBU rate for a SINGLE currency on one day. Pass valcode as an ISO-4217 code (e.g. USD, EUR, GBP). rate is UAH per 1 unit of that currency. Omit date for today. For a time series of one currency across a date range, use nbu_currency_history instead.
nbu_currency_historyDaily time series of the official NBU rate for ONE currency over a date range. Pass valcode (ISO-4217, e.g. USD) and start/end as YYYYMMDD. Returns one record per business day: {exchangedate (DD.MM.YYYY), cc, txt (Ukrainian name), enname (English name), rate (UAH per units), units, rate_per_unit}. Omit valcode to get every currency over the range. Newest first.
nbu_monetary_aggregatesNBU monetary aggregates (M0, M1, M2, M3 money supply, in UAH million) for a given month. Each record: {dt (YYYYMMDD), txt (Ukrainian name), txten (English name), id_api (e.g. M2/M3), value, freq}. date selects the reference month (any day in it); omit for the latest available month.
nbu_international_reservesNBU official international (reserve) assets for a given month, broken down by component. Each record: {dt (YYYYMMDD), txt (Ukrainian name), txten (English name), id_api, value, freq}. date selects the reference month; omit for the latest available month.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nbu-ua": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/nbu-ua/mcp"
    }
  }
}
What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/nbu-ua/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.

This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1683+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

No MCP client? Call it over HTTP

curl -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/nbu_exchange_rates \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"date":"20240115"}'

No account needed for the first calls. Inspect any tool: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/nbu_exchange_rates. Find one: POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/search_packs with {"query":"..."}.

Standalone (no gateway account)

This package also runs as a local stdio MCP server — no Pipeworx account, no gateway round-trip:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nbu-ua": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-nbu-ua"]
    }
  }
}

Or run it directly to confirm it starts:

npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-nbu-ua

It speaks MCP over stdin/stdout and answers initialize/tools/list/tools/call for only this pack's tools — none of the shared meta-tools the gateway connection above adds. Same source, same tools, no ask_pipeworx routing.

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Nbu Ua data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
