[Feature Request] FXMacroData toolkit for sourced macroeconomic research
Required prerequisites
- Searched the issue tracker and discussions for duplicates.
Motivation
I maintain FXMacroData. CAMEL research agents can use sourced economic observations and upcoming release schedules alongside their existing market tools. The public USD catalogue, recent macro history and release calendar work without an API key.
Solution
I have prepared an independently installable CAMEL toolkit. It registers the documented REST and hosted MCP operations as native FunctionTool objects, preserves source metadata and original responses, and supports optional user-owned credentials outside model-visible arguments. Tests execute actual CAMEL tools with a mocked transport; a separate no-key workflow exercises public USD data.
Would you accept an upstream toolkit contribution, or prefer that this remain an external package? I will wait for an accepted discussion before opening a code PR.
Alternatives
Keep the external toolkit and its documented CAMEL installation path. A documentation link could make that integration discoverable without adding a maintained provider to CAMEL itself.
Additional context
The implementation was prepared with AI assistance and audited for native tool registration, credential handling and public-source boundaries. No FXMacroData credentials or service implementation are included. The focused CAMEL suite contains 75 passing tests.
