Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aussie-data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "aussie-data-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add aussie-data -- npx -y aussie-data-mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aussie-data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

Common questions

Is Aussie Data MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.2.1) reached the registry 13 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Aussie Data MCP

An MCP server that lets Claude (or any MCP client) query Australian economic and transport data directly: ABS, RBA, and Sydney Opal tap data from Commute Pulse.

Ask things like "how has Sydney rent moved against the cash rate since 2022?" and the model pulls the real series instead of guessing.

Tools

Tool	What it answers	Source
`get_cpi`	Inflation by item and capital city (headline, trimmed mean, rents, electricity...)	ABS monthly CPI
`get_labour_force`	Unemployment, participation, employment by state	ABS Labour Force
`get_cash_rate`	RBA cash rate target, monthly	RBA F1.1
`get_lending_rates`	Home loan, business and credit card rates (advertised)	RBA F5
`get_exchange_rates`	AUD against 18 currencies, plus the TWI	RBA F11.1
`rba_series`	Any other RBA table (list its series, then fetch)	RBA statistical tables
`get_commute_pulse`	Sydney's Friday gap and return-to-office patterns since 2020	TfNSW Opal Tap Data
`abs_search_dataflows`	Find any ABS dataset by keyword	ABS Data API
`abs_describe_dataflow`	Dimensions and codes for an ABS dataset	ABS Data API
`abs_get_data`	Fetch any ABS dataset by SDMX key	ABS Data API

Every tool returns compact JSON: named series with units, the latest value, the start value and the change over the window already worked out, plus notes on caveats. No API keys needed.

Use it with Claude Desktop

Add this to claude_desktop_config.json (Settings > Developer > Edit Config):

"mcpServers": { "aussie-data": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "aussie-data-mcp"] } } }

Or from a local clone, point it at the build: "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/aussie-data-mcp/dist/index.js"].

npx -y aussie-data-mcp runs the newest published version every time Claude starts. To stay on a version you have checked, pin it: "args": ["-y", "aussie-data-mcp@0.2.1"].

Every id the model passes in (RBA table, ABS dataflow, SDMX key, CPI code) is checked against the shape of a real id before it goes into a request URL. npm test covers those checks.

Develop

npm install

npm run smoke # hits every live source and prints a summary npm run inspect # opens the MCP Inspector against the server

Responses are cached for 6 hours (memory + temp dir). Override with AUSSIE_DATA_CACHE_TTL_HOURS and AUSSIE_DATA_CACHE_DIR.

Commute Pulse data is a bundled snapshot of that pipeline's outputs. After re-running it, refresh with npm run sync:commute.

Health check

Every morning a GitHub Action calls the live ABS and RBA APIs the way the tools do and appends the result to health/log.jsonl: which checks passed, how long each took, and the latest period and value each returned. health/latest.md is the last run. If a source fails, returns nothing, changes how many series it sends, goes backwards, adds a new note or goes stale, the Action opens a health issue (or comments on the open one). Run it yourself with npm run health.
