Frequently asked questions
How can I search for datasets containing a specific word in the title?
Use the search_datasets_by_title tool. Provide the string you are looking for in the title parameter, and the agent will return all matching datasets from the national catalog.
Is it possible to filter datasets by a specific file format like CSV or JSON?
Yes! Use the list_datasets_by_format tool and specify the format (e.g., 'csv', 'json', 'xlsx'). This will retrieve only the datasets that offer distributions in that format.
Can I find datasets belonging to a specific category like 'Health' or 'Environment'?
Absolutely. Use the list_datasets_by_theme tool with the corresponding theme ID. You can first use list_themes to see all available categories in the catalog.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
