Summary
This server connects Claude to the Hong Kong Monetary Authority's public APIs without requiring authentication. It's part of the Pipeworx gateway ecosystem, which aggregates over 250 data sources into MCP endpoints. You can either use this standalone HKMA endpoint or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for broader access. The source repository doesn't list specific tools, but you can query it through the ask_pipeworx natural language interface rather than calling individual endpoints directly. Useful if you're building financial applications that need Hong Kong monetary data, exchange rates, or regulatory information and want to keep everything in the MCP protocol.

Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
hkma_dataset | Fetch ANY HKMA public dataset by its endpoint path (the part after https://api.hkma.gov.hk/public/). Returns the uniform envelope: data rows are under result.records, total under result.datasize. Use this for any HKMA series not covered by a convenience tool. Verified example paths: "market-data-and-statistics/daily-monetary-statistics/daily-figures-interbank-liquidity" (daily HIBOR/aggregate balance/TWI), "market-data-and-statistics/daily-monetary-statistics/daily-figures-monetary-base" (monetary base components), "market-data-and-statistics/monthly-statistical-bulletin/er-ir/hk-interbank-ir-daily" (HIBOR fixings by tenor), "market-data-and-statistics/monthly-statistical-bulletin/er-ir/er-eeri-daily" (HKD exchange rates vs major currencies), "market-data-and-statistics/monthly-statistical-bulletin/er-ir/hkd-fer-daily" (HKD forward points), "market-data-and-statistics/monthly-statistical-bulletin/er-ir/composite-ir" (composite interest rate, monthly), "market-data-and-statistics/monthly-statistical-bulletin/banking/customer-deposits-by-currency", "coin-cart-schedule" (requires lang). Browse more at apidocs.hkma.gov.hk. Dates YYYY-MM-DD; paginate with offset/pagesize. |
hkma_interbank_liquidity | Daily interbank liquidity figures: overnight & 1-month HIBOR, aggregate balance (opening/closing), discount window base rate, the convertibility undertaking strong/weak-side rates (7.75/7.85), and the trade-weighted index (TWI). One record per business day, most recent first. Use from/to to window the dates. |
hkma_monetary_base | Daily figures for the components of the Hong Kong Monetary Base: Certificates of Indebtedness, government notes & coins in circulation, aggregate balance (before/after discount window), and outstanding Exchange Fund Bills & Notes. One record per business day. Use from/to to window the dates. |
hkma_interbank_interest_rates | HKD interbank offered rates (HIBOR) by tenor: overnight, 1-week, 1/3/6/9/12-month, one record per day (end_of_day). Source is the Monthly Statistical Bulletin er-ir series. Use from/to to window the dates. |
hkma_exchange_rates | HKD market exchange rates vs major currencies (USD, GBP, JPY, CNY, EUR, AUD, CAD, SGD, etc.), one record per day (end_of_day). Source is the Monthly Statistical Bulletin er-ir er-eeri-daily series. Use from/to to window the dates. |
Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"hkma-hk": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/hkma-hk/mcp"
}
}
}
What this endpoint actually serves
tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/hkma-hk/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 1476+ data sources. The
only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx
reaches all of them from either one.
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 Hkma Hk data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
