DataSF MCP — San Francisco open data (data.sfgov.org, Socrata SODA API).
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.
Tool | Description |
| Recent records from a common San Francisco open dataset (data.sfgov.org) by friendly name — no Socrata id needed. PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for "recent crime/police incidents in San Francisco", "SF 311 complaints", "SF building permits / evictions / business registrations", "SF restaurant inspection scores", "SFO passenger traffic". Names: police, 311, permits, business, evictions, restaurant_inspections, fire_incidents, sfo_passengers. Returns the latest rows (sorted newest-first). Add a SoQL |
| Run a raw SoQL query against any San Francisco open-data resource (data.sfgov.org) by its Socrata id (8-char like "wg3w-h783"). Full SoQL: where/select/group/order/limit/offset. Use sf_datasets to find a resource id, or sf_recent for the common ones. |
| Search the San Francisco open-data catalogue (data.sfgov.org) for datasets by keyword. Returns dataset names, descriptions, and Socrata resource ids to use with sf_query. |
