Tools

Tool

Description

search_datasets

Search the opendata.swiss catalogue (CKAN package_search). Returns matching Swiss federal/cantonal datasets. Titles/descriptions are multilingual {de,fr,it,en}; each result is annotated with English-preferred title_en/notes_en.

dataset_details

Full metadata for one dataset (CKAN package_show) including its resources/distributions with download URLs. Use a dataset name (slug) or id from search_datasets. There is no datastore, so fetch resources[].download_url/url for the underlying data.

list_organizations

List publishing organizations (federal offices, cantons, etc.). Multilingual titles flattened to title_en. Use a returned name as organization:<name> in search_datasets fq.

list_groups

List thematic categories (CKAN groups / themes, e.g. health, education, energy). Multilingual titles flattened to title_en. Use a returned name as groups:<name> in search_datasets fq.

list_tags

List or search keyword tags used across the catalogue (CKAN tag_list). Useful for discovering facet values.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "opendata-swiss": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/opendata-swiss/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Opendata Swiss data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
