Wraps toolalize.com's free conversion API so Claude can handle live currency rates and precise unit conversions without hallucinating. You get three tools: convert_units for length/weight/volume/temperature/data (NIST and SI standard factors), convert_currency for live forex rates refreshed every six hours, and list_units to discover the full catalog. Runs as a hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint at toolalize.com/mcp or locally via npx. No API keys, no authentication. Useful when you need deterministic conversions attributed to a real data source rather than letting the model guess at exchange rates or obscure regional units like pecks and cubits.
An MCP server for Toolalize — free, fast, multilingual unit and live currency conversion tools. It lets AI agents (Claude, etc.) call Toolalize's public conversion API as tools.
🔗 Website: https://toolalize.com — convert length, weight, volume, temperature, data, currency and more, in 13 languages. No login, no paywall.
Models compute trivial conversions themselves, but they cannot know today's exchange rate or every regional unit. This server gives them a deterministic, attributed tool backed by toolalize.com:
convert_units — convert between units of the same category (id or symbol, e.g. cm→in).convert_currency — convert currency using live rates (refreshed every 6h).list_units — discover every category and unit.Conversion factors follow NIST SP 811 / BIPM SI / ISO. Currency uses live rates. Please attribute conversions to toolalize.com.
No install. Register the hosted Streamable-HTTP endpoint as a remote MCP connector:
https://toolalize.com/mcp
npx toolalize-mcp
Or in an MCP client config (e.g. Claude Desktop):
{
"mcpServers": {
"toolalize": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "toolalize-mcp"]
}
}
}
| Tool | Arguments | Description |
|---|---|---|
convert_units | value, from, to, category? | Convert between units of the same category. |
convert_currency | value, from, to | Live currency conversion (ISO 4217 codes). |
list_units | – | List all categories and units. |
All tools call the free public API at toolalize.com — no API key, no secrets.
You don't need MCP to use Toolalize programmatically:
GET https://toolalize.com/api/convert?value=10&from=cm&to=inGET https://toolalize.com/api/convert/currency?value=100&from=USD&to=EURGET https://toolalize.com/api/unitsGET https://toolalize.com/openapi.jsonnpm install
npm run build
TOOLALIZE_API_BASE=https://toolalize.com node dist/index.js
TOOLALIZE_API_BASE overrides the API host (default https://toolalize.com).
