Map Brazilian Datasets inside Claude Desktop

`list_agregados` is the entry point for finding specific statistical tables across IBGE's catalog of Brazilian surveys. Your AI client uses this tool to search through thousands of aggregate tables, categorizing them by survey type like IPCA inflation or agricultural output. You don't have to scroll through messy government portals. Claude runs the query and lists the exact table IDs you need. Once you locate a table, the `get_agregado_metadados` tool retrieves the exact structural details, including classifications and geographic levels. This means Claude understands the parameters before running a data pull. It prevents empty responses and ensures your queries target the correct variables from the start.

Target Exact Timeframes and Variables

`get_agregado_periodos` checks the exact temporal boundaries of any SIDRA table before you pull data. This step is critical because Brazilian statistical surveys run on highly irregular schedules—some are monthly, others happen once a decade. Knowing the available periods stops Claude from making blind requests that fail. Your AI client reads these temporal ranges to construct precise data requests. This setup works whether you are looking for historical census trends or the latest monthly economic indicators. By checking the periods first, you avoid rate limits and get clean, sequential data arrays on your first try.

Pull Raw Statistical Metrics via MCP Server

`get_agregado_data` extracts the actual numerical values from the selected SIDRA tables at specific geographic resolutions. You can target national trends, regional breakdowns, or drill all the way down to individual municipalities. Claude handles the raw JSON payload and formats it directly inside your chat window. This MCP Server connection lets you skip manual CSV downloads entirely. Claude can immediately take the raw numbers, run the math, and write a Python script to plot the inflation curve or population shift. It turns complex economic API queries into a simple conversational request.
