Install

Requires Node.js ≥ 18.

Note: until the npm package goes live you can install straight from GitHub — replace turkey-data-mcp with github:bodyegypt/turkey-data-mcp in any snippet below (no build step needed, dist/ is committed).

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

Data sources & limits

Gold/silver: Harem Altın, cross-checked with TCMB · FX: TCMB official daily fixing · Fuel: EPDK per-brand reports, city averages · Prayer times: Diyanet İşleri calculation method · Earthquakes: Kandilli Observatory (KOERI).
All timestamps are Europe/Istanbul. All prices in TRY.
The upstream API allows 60 requests/min per IP; this server throttles itself client-side and returns a clear retry message if exceeded.
Raw REST API (no MCP needed): https://turkpidya.com/wp-json/turkpidya-data/v1/ — see turkpidya.com/developers.

Development

npm install
npm run build   # compile TypeScript to dist/
npm run smoke   # run all tools against the live API via a real MCP stdio client
