Description

Speed

list_topics(search?)

List 92 TÜİK topics

<50ms (cache)

get_indicators(topic_index)

Get indicators + cascading branches

<50ms (cache)

download(topic_index, indicators?, format?, save_path?, live?)

<50ms cache / ~12s live

Example flow

1. list_topics("fiyat") → [{index:78, label:"Tüketici Fiyat Endeksi"}]
2. get_indicators(78) → {count:12, indicators:[...]}
3. download(78, format="xls") → /tmp/MEDAS_Tüketici_Fiyat_Endeksi_20260820.xls

Architecture

AI Agent  ⇄  MCP (stdio)  ⇄  server.py  ⇄  medas_client.py
                                            ├─ cache (data/*.json) → instant
                                            └─ Playwright (live=true) → ZK AU protocol

ZK AU Protocol

  • POST /medas/zkau;jsessionid=XXX with dtid + batched cmd_n=onSelect/onClick

  • Widget IDs change every session — discovered dynamically via DOM

  • Cascading: zk.Widget.$('#selectId').fire('onSelect', {items:[itemId], reference:itemId})
