Tools

Tool

Description

list_parliaments

List German parliaments tracked by Abgeordnetenwatch: the federal Bundestag, all 16 state Landtage, and the EU parliament. Returns id, short name and full official name for each. Use the ids to scope politician or poll queries.

search_politicians

Search German federal and state politicians by name (surname or partial surname, contains-match). Returns matching politicians with party, year of birth and sex. Example: name "Scholz" or "Merz". Use get_politician with a returned id for the full profile.

get_politician

Get the full profile of a single German politician by Abgeordnetenwatch id: name, party, year of birth, sex, education and residence. Get the id from search_politicians.

list_polls

List recorded parliamentary votes/polls (Abstimmungen) with their title and date. Optionally scope to a single legislative period via period_id (a parliament-period id). Returns most recent polls first.

Quick Start

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

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

What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/abgeordnetenwatch/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-toolsask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.

This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:

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

Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1476+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Abgeordnetenwatch data" })

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