About HealthData.gov (HHS Open Data) MCP Server

Connect your AI agent to HealthData.gov, the central clearinghouse for open data from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS). This MCP server empowers your agent to discover and analyze vast amounts of public health, social service, and Medicare/Medicaid data.

Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple HealthData.gov (HHS Open Data) tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 2 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.

What you can do

  • Catalog Discovery — Search and list thousands of available datasets, views, and resources across the entire HHS ecosystem.
  • Deep Data Querying — Use Socrata Query Language (SoQL) to filter, sort, and aggregate data from specific datasets (e.g., hospital capacity, COVID-19 statistics, or provider directories).
  • Precision Filtering — Apply complex $where, $select, and $order parameters to extract exactly the records you need without downloading massive files.
  • Real-time Research — Fetch the latest updates on public health metrics directly into your conversation for immediate analysis.

The HealthData.gov (HHS Open Data) MCP Server exposes 2 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
