R Econometrics MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides econometric modeling capabilities through R. This server enables AI assistants to perform sophisticated econometric analyses, including linear regression, panel data models, instrumental variables regression, and diagnostic tests.

Features

  • Linear Regression: Run linear models with optional robust standard errors
  • Panel Data Analysis: Fixed effects, random effects, pooling, between, and first-difference models
  • Instrumental Variables: Estimate IV regression models
  • Diagnostic Tests: Heteroskedasticity, autocorrelation, and functional form tests
  • Resources: Reference documentation for econometric techniques
  • Prompts: Pre-defined prompt templates for common econometric analyses

Installation

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.8+
  • R 4.0+
  • R packages: plm, lmtest, sandwich, AER, jsonlite

Using Docker (Recommended)

  1. Build the Docker image:

    docker build -t r-econometrics-mcp .
    
  2. Run the container:

    docker run -it r-econometrics-mcp
    

Manual Installation

  1. Install the required Python packages:

    pip install -r requirements.txt
    
  2. Install the required R packages:

    install.packages(c("plm", "lmtest", "sandwich", "AER", "jsonlite"))
    
  3. Run the server:

    python r_econometrics_mcp.py
    

Usage with Claude Desktop

  1. Launch Claude Desktop
  2. Open the MCP Servers panel
  3. Add a new server with the following configuration:
    • Name: R Econometrics
    • Transport: stdio
    • Command: path/to/python r_econometrics_mcp.py
    • (Or if using Docker): docker run -i r-econometrics-mcp

Example Queries

Here are some example queries you can use with Claude once the server is connected:

Linear Regression

Can you analyze the relationship between price and mpg in the mtcars dataset using linear regression?

Panel Data Analysis

I have panel data with variables gdp, investment, and trade for 30 countries over 20 years. Can you help me determine if a fixed effects or random effects model is more appropriate?

Instrumental Variables

I'm trying to estimate the causal effect of education on wages, but I'm concerned about endogeneity. Can you help me set up an instrumental variables regression?

Diagnostic Tests

After running my regression model, I'm concerned about heteroskedasticity. Can you run appropriate diagnostic tests and suggest corrections if needed?

Tools Reference
