MCP server for Israel Government Data
Connect DataGov Israel to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. MCP server for Israel Government Data. The datagov israel mcp server is what makes that connection.
Search thousands of public datasets, profile their structure, generate charts, and plot geographic data on maps — all from your AI assistant.
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:
status_show — Get CKAN version and site infolicense_list — List available dataset licensespackage_list — Get all dataset IDspackage_search — Search datasets with filters and sortingpackage_show — Get detailed metadata for a specific datasetorganization_list — List all organizationsorganization_show — Get details of a specific organizationresource_search — Search for resources within datasetsdatastore_search — Query data within a specific resourcefetch_data — Convenience tool — find dataset by name and fetch its dataInstallation — The Installation tool exposed by this serverdataset_profile — The dataset_profile tool exposed by this servernano-dev-utils on PyPI is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. DataGov Israel's toolset — status_show, license_list, package_list and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by aviveldan; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
