Is there a Rate-API MCP server?

You don't need an MCP server to give your agent the Rate-API. Jentic connects it directly from the API Directory: import it, store your key once, and your agent calls it. Operations are discovered on demand, so no extra tool definitions sit in the agent's context.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Rate-API?

Yes. For example, write a rule that allows only GET /latest and GET /convert, so the agent can quote today's rates and convert amounts but cannot run time series or fluctuation reports that draw on your Business plan allowance. For a single-pair widget, allow GET /pair/{from}/{to} with the pair fixed, such as /pair/USD/EUR. Every call the agent makes is logged.

What are the rate limits for the Rate-API?

The OpenAPI spec does not state a numeric rate limit. Limits are tied to your plan, and the GET /quota operation reports the plan quota and remaining requests for your key while GET /usage reports request counts. Check https://rate-api.com for current plan allowances.

Which Rate-API operations need a paid plan?

The spec marks GET /convert, GET /historical, GET /crypto, GET /stocks, and GET /metals as Pro plan and up, and GET /timeseries and GET /fluctuation as Business plan and up. GET /latest, GET /pair/{from}/{to}, GET /currencies, and the account operations carry no plan note in the spec.

How do I convert a currency amount with the Rate-API through Jentic?

Install Jentic One with `curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh`, import the Rate-API from the API Directory, and store your key. Your agent then searches for 'convert currency', gets the GET /convert operation with its from, to, and amount inputs, and calls it. To run it on your own infrastructure, install Jentic One from its GitHub repo.
