## Setup notes
- Package: Pypi ausecon-mcp-server v1.14.2
- Remote endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp

## Tools
- search_datasets (Search Datasets) - Search curated ABS, RBA, and APRA economic datasets. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- list_catalogue (List Catalogue) - List curated ABS, RBA, and APRA catalogue entries, optionally filtered by source,
category, or tag. Unranked complement to ``search_datasets``. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- list_economic_concepts (List Economic Concepts) - List analyst-friendly semantic economic concepts accepted by get_economic_series. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- get_abs_dataset_structure (Get ABS Dataset Structure) - Get ABS SDMX dataset dimensions and codelists. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- get_abs_data (Get ABS Data) - Expert/source-native ABS SDMX retrieval in a normalised response shape. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- list_rba_tables (List RBA Tables) - Deprecated compatibility alias. Prefer list_catalogue(source="rba"). Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- get_rba_table (Get RBA Table) - Expert/source-native RBA statistical table retrieval in a normalised response shape. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- get_apra_data (Get APRA Data) - Expert/source-native APRA public XLSX publication retrieval.

Only curated official APRA publication IDs are accepted; arbitrary URLs are not. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- get_economic_series (Get Economic Series) - Preferred analyst-facing retrieval tool for curated ABS/RBA economic concepts.

Use list_economic_concepts for discovery. Date bounds accept YYYY, YYYY-QN,
YYYY-SN, YYYY-MM, or YYYY-MM-DD and are normalised to the resolved source. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- get_derived_series (Get Derived Series) - Read-only retrieval for the narrow transparent derived series layer.

Date bounds accept YYYY, YYYY-QN, YYYY-SN, YYYY-MM, or YYYY-MM-DD and
are normalised to the derived series frequency. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- get_latest_observations (Get Latest Observations) - Source-aware convenience wrapper for the latest observations.

For a single curated indicator prefer get_economic_series(concept=...), which
resolves one series; pass series_ids=[...] to narrow a broad dataset instead of
returning every series it contains. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- get_top_observations (Get Top Observations) - Source-aware convenience wrapper for highest or lowest numeric observations.

For a single curated indicator prefer get_economic_series(concept=...), which
resolves one series; pass series_ids=[...] to narrow a broad dataset instead of
returning every series it contains. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- describe_dataset (Describe Dataset) - Describe a source-native ABS, RBA, or APRA dataset without hiding native IDs. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp
- list_release_events (List Release Events) - List source-aware release calendar or release-pulse events. Endpoint: https://mcp.auseconmcp.com/mcp

## Resources
- ausecon://catalogue - Flat index of every curated ABS, RBA, and APRA dataset the server exposes. Use this to browse what is available before calling search_datasets. MIME type: application/json
- ausecon://concepts - Every curated semantic shortcut accepted by get_economic_series, with its resolved target dataset, variant, supported frequencies, and geographies. MIME type: application/json

## Prompts
- summarise_latest_inflation - Summarise the most recent Australian headline and trimmed-mean CPI prints and compare them to the RBA's 2–3% target band. Arguments: months
