boi-economic-data

A tool for retrieving and analyzing Bank of Israel economic data, including interest rates, exchange rates, consumer prices, inflation expectations, government-bond yields, and other statistics.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find interest rates, representative exchange rates, the consumer price index, inflation data, bond yields, and related Israeli statistics through the Bank of Israel data service.
Why use it?
It provides a defined way to work with Israeli economic indicators instead of collecting figures manually. The data comes from Bank of Israel or Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics sources.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

boi-economic-data scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/fetch_boi_rates.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

BOI Economic Data

Instructions

Step 1: Identify the Data Type

Ask the user what economic data they need:

Data Type Hebrew Source Update Frequency
Interest rate ריבית בנק ישראל BOI Monetary Committee Announced ~6 times/year
Exchange rates שערי חליפין (שער יציג) BOI Daily (published ~15:30)
CPI (Consumer Price Index) מדד המחירים לצרכן CBS (Lishkat HaStatistika) Monthly (around 15th of following month)
Inflation expectations ציפיות אינפלציה BOI Monthly
Government bonds yield תשואת אג"ח ממשלתי BOI / TASE Daily
Monetary aggregates אגרגטים מוניטריים BOI Monthly

Step 2: Fetch Data from BOI API

The Bank of Israel serves public data from its "new series database" (Fusion Edge Server) using the SDMX 2.1 REST API. The working data path is https://edge.boi.gov.il/FusionEdgeServer/ws/public/sdmxapi/rest/data/{DATAFLOW}/{series} (the older sdmx/v2/data/dataflow/BOI/... path returns 404). The API returns SDMX-XML; observations come as <Obs TIME_PERIOD="..." OBS_VALUE="..."/> elements. The server rejects the default urllib User-Agent, so send a normal browser User-Agent. The canonical endpoint reference is references/boi-api.md.

Exchange Rates (Sha'ar Yatzig): representative rates live in the EXR dataflow as per-currency series RER_<CUR>_ILS (e.g. RER_USD_ILS, RER_EUR_ILS):

GET https://edge.boi.gov.il/FusionEdgeServer/ws/public/sdmxapi/rest/data/EXR/RER_USD_ILS?startPeriod={date}&endPeriod={date}

Interest Rate: the Bank of Israel rate data lives in the BIR dataflow:

GET https://edge.boi.gov.il/FusionEdgeServer/ws/public/sdmxapi/rest/data/BIR/?startPeriod={date}&endPeriod={date}

For the headline policy-rate value the most reliable source is the Monetary Committee decision (see the press-release / monetary-policy links in Reference Links). Use scripts/fetch_boi_rates.py for simplified data fetching.

Step 3: Process Exchange Rate Data

BOI publishes representative exchange rates (sha'ar yatzig) daily:

Files

What ships with it

7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

boi-economic-data is a skill published in the GitHub repository squadcodercom/squadcoder (11 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 198 tokens to every session and 2,295 once invoked, about $0.0010 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
