-RBA MCP — Reserve Bank of Australia statistics (free, no auth).
+Reserve Bank of Australia statistics — cash rate target, AUD exchange rates,
+and any of the 71 published statistical tables (interest rates, bond yields,
+CPI, monetary aggregates, and more), scraped keyless from RBA's own CSV
+endpoints.

 ## Tools
 
-| Tool | Description |
-|------|-------------|
+- `rba_cash_rate(recent?)` — the RBA's official cash rate target (AU's
+  monetary-policy rate) plus recent monthly history.
+- `rba_exchange_rates(currency?, recent?)` — latest AUD exchange rates
+  against major currencies, or one pair's recent history.
+- `rba_series(series?, table?, series_id?, recent?)` — any RBA statistical
+  series. **Preferred usage: pass `series` as a NAME or description** (e.g.
+  `"90-day bank bill rate"`, `"3-year government bond yield"`) and it
+  resolves the (table, series_id) pair by fuzzy-matching series
+  titles/descriptions — the interest-rate and bond-yield tables (F1, F1.1,
+  F2, F2.1, F16) are searched first, then the broader catalog if nothing
+  scores there. Returns `resolved_from`/`resolved_to` on a clean resolution,
+  or an `error: "ambiguous"` with `candidates` when the name doesn't
+  disambiguate on its own (never invents an id). Pass `table` + `series_id`
+  directly for the legacy exact-id path.
+- `rba_list_series(query?, keyword?, table?)` — discovery/directory tool.
+  `query` searches series NAMES/descriptions directly (same engine
+  `rba_series` uses to resolve names) and returns ranked `(table,
+  series_id)` matches in one call. `keyword` searches table
+  titles/categories instead and returns every series in the matched
+  tables. `table` lists all series in one table. No arguments browses
+  every table by category.
+
+## Auth
+
+Keyless. RBA publishes every statistical table as CSV with no
+authentication or rate limit documented.
+
+## Data sources
+
+- `https://www.rba.gov.au/statistics/tables/csv/<table>-data.csv` — one CSV
+  per table id (e.g. `f1.1`, `f2.1`, `g1`). Row layout is fixed: a title
+  line, then labelled header rows (`Title`, `Description`, `Frequency`,
+  `Type`, `Units`, `Source`, `Publication date`, `Series ID`), then data
+  rows keyed by date. Columns 1..N are series, matched by position across
+  the header rows.
+- `https://www.rba.gov.au/statistics/tables/` — the index page `RBA_TABLES`
+  in `src/index.ts` was scraped from (2026-08-28). No official endpoint
+  lists every table + series in one call; regenerate that scrape if RBA
+  adds/renames a table (rare).
+
+### Gotchas
+
+- **Dates use two formats** across tables: `DD/MM/YYYY` (e.g. f1.1) and
+  `DD-Mon-YYYY` (e.g. f11.1 exchange rates) — both normalized to
+  `YYYY-MM-DD` by `toIso()`.
+- **RBA republishes several series in both a daily and a monthly table**
+  with the same or near-identical name (e.g. "Cash Rate Target" in both
+  `f1` and `f1.1`; `"EOD 3-month BABs/NCDs"` in `f1` vs `"3-month
+  BABs/NCDs"` in `f1.1`). Name resolution collapses these via
+  `dedupeMatches()` and prefers the monthly/interpolated table — otherwise
+  every named query looks falsely ambiguous against its own daily twin.
+- **Day-count finance shorthand ("90-day", "180-day") doesn't literally
+  appear in RBA's own series titles** — RBA calls them "1/3/6-month
+  BABs/NCDs". `expandDaySynonyms()` converts common day counts (30/90/180/365)
+  to their month equivalent before scoring, so "90-day bank bill rate"
+  still finds `FIRMMBAB90` ("3-month BABs/NCDs").

+### What this endpoint actually serves
+
+`tools/list` at `https://gateway.pipeworx.io/rba/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.

+## Standalone (no gateway account)

+```json
+{

+    "rba": {
+      "command": "npx",
