Description

toronto_recent

Recent records from a common City of Toronto open dataset (open.toronto.ca, CKAN) by friendly name — no CKAN resource id needed. PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for "Toronto building permits", "Toronto business licences". Names: permits, business. Returns the latest rows (newest-first). Pass q for a free-text keyword filter; for full control use toronto_query.

toronto_query

Query any City of Toronto datastore resource (open.toronto.ca, CKAN) by its resource id (a UUID). Supports a free-text q, exact-match filters (field→value), sort ("field desc"), limit and offset. Use toronto_datasets to find a resource id, or toronto_recent for the common ones.

toronto_datasets

Search the City of Toronto open-data catalogue (open.toronto.ca, CKAN) by keyword. Returns each matching dataset's title and its queryable datastore resource ids (use with toronto_query).

Quick Start

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "data-toronto": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/data-toronto/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 Data Toronto data" })

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