Available Tools

9 tools
data_gouv_fr_explain_scopeA

Explain what this MCP is useful for and how an agent should combine its sources.

Inputs: no named parameters.

data_gouv_fr_fetch_source_excerptA

Fetch a short text excerpt from one curated source URL. Use source_key as a number, title keyword, or URL fragment from get_sources.

Inputs: source_key (required), max_chars.

data_gouv_fr_get_datasetA

Inspect one data.gouv.fr dataset by slug or id using the official public API.

Inputs: dataset (required).

data_gouv_fr_get_sourcesA

List curated official and high-value sources for data.gouv.fr.

Inputs: no named parameters.

data_gouv_fr_list_dataset_resourcesA

List resources/files for a data.gouv.fr dataset, optionally filtered by format. Use after data_gouv_fr_get_dataset when the agent needs direct CSV/API/file URLs.

Inputs: dataset (required), limit, format.

data_gouv_fr_list_reference_itemsB

List built-in reference items for this MCP, when available.

Inputs: no named parameters.

data_gouv_fr_search_data_gouvB

Search public datasets on data.gouv.fr using the official public API.

Inputs: query, page_size.

data_gouv_fr_search_dataservicesA

Search the data.gouv.fr public API / dataservice catalog. Useful to discover reusable French public APIs by topic.

Inputs: query (required), page_size.

data_gouv_fr_search_organizationsA

Search data.gouv.fr organizations and producers. Useful to find certified public producers such as Etalab, INSEE, IGN, ministries, regions, departments, or municipalities.

Inputs: query (required), page_size.

    A3.6/5.0

    Scored across 9 tools

    Disambiguation4/5

    Tools target distinct resources (sources, datasets, organizations, dataservices, vocabulary). However, 'get_sources' and 'fetch_source_excerpt' both relate to curated sources, requiring a clear two-step workflow, and 'explain_scope'/'list_reference_items' are meta/utility tools that might overlap in edge cases. Overall, clear separation of purpose is evident.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    All tools follow a consistent pattern: 'data_gouv_fr_' prefix plus a verb-noun or verb-object structure (get_sources, search_data_gouv, get_dataset, fetch_source_excerpt, list_reference_items). Minor deviation: 'explain_scope' is a meta-utility rather than a data operation, but naming remains predictable.

    Tool Count4/5

    9 tools for this server's scope (discovering and exploring data.gouv.fr resources) is reasonable and well-balanced. It's not too sparse nor overloaded. The inclusion of utility tools like 'explain_scope' and 'list_reference_items' slightly widens scope, but overall count is appropriate.

    Completeness4/5

    Covers discovery (search datasets, organizations, dataservices), inspection (get_dataset, list resources), and curated source access (get_sources, fetch_source_excerpt). Minor gap: no direct download or full text fetch of a resource (only excerpt), and no tool to browse dataset metadata beyond basic inspection, but core workflows are present.
