  • Competition note: pipeworx-io/mcp-govdata-de (★0, 2026-11-09) covers the same portal but only ships 2 tools (list_organizations, list_groups) behind a commercial gateway and has no dataset search; this server adds search, dataset/resource details, recency and tests.

Tests: 19/19 green (13 offline + 6 live, 2026-11-10).

Development

python3 -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install "mcp<2" httpx pytest
