International Classifications MCP
Server Configuration
Describes the environment variables required to run the server.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP_HOST | No | For HTTP transport, set the host. Example: MCP_HOST=0.0.0.0 | |
| MCP_TRANSPORT | No | For HTTP transport, set to streamable-http. Example: MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http |
Instructions
Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.
This server publishes no instructions, or was last inspected before Glama recorded them.

Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_classificationsA | List classification families, versions, custodians, coverage and licensing notes. Start here when the correct standard is unknown. |
| get_classificationA | Get authoritative metadata and coverage for one classification_id returned by list_classifications. |
| list_codelistsA | List independent option lists within a classification before searching or exporting one list. |
| recommend_classificationsA | Return a deterministic ranked shortlist of all relevant classification concepts and codelists. Ranking supports user choice; it is not an automatic selection. Include answer options and context. |
| search_codesB | Full-text search labels and notes. Results restrict to one option list only when codelist_id is explicitly supplied. |
| get_code_definitionB | Retrieve one exact code or codelist container, including its node_kind, hierarchy position and explanatory notes. |
| browse_hierarchyA | Browse top-level nodes or immediate children. Curated families return node_kind=codelist containers at root; pass that code as parent_code to browse its options. |
| validate_codesB | Validate exact codes against one named classification version. |
| map_codesB | Apply official stored correspondences and expose splits, merges, changed meanings and unmapped codes. Never assume one-to-one equivalence. |
| export_choice_listB | Return a structured choice list at a selected hierarchy level. MICS exports require one codelist_id and never merge unrelated answer lists. |

TDQS
Scored across 10 tools
Each tool targets a distinct operation in the classification workflow: listing families, listing option lists, metadata retrieval, recommendation, search, code lookup, hierarchy browsing, validation, mapping, and export. The only mild overlap is between recommend_classifications and search_codes, but their descriptions clearly separate ranked concept selection from full-text label/note search.
All tool names use snake_case with a consistent verb_noun structure, such as list_classifications, get_classification, search_codes, validate_codes, and map_codes. Minor variations in token length do not break the predictable pattern.
The server exposes 10 tools, which is well within the ideal range for a focused reference-data MCP. Each tool earns its place by covering a distinct discovery, retrieval, validation, mapping, or export need without redundant CRUD operations.
The surface covers the full read-only lifecycle for international classifications: discovery, metadata, recommendation, search, hierarchy browsing, exact code retrieval, validation, mapping, and choice-list export. No create/update/delete tools are expected for authoritative reference standards, and any bulk navigation is handled by browse_hierarchy and export_choice_list.
