Connect to the official Datos.gob.es API to explore Spain's vast repository of public sector information. This MCP server allows AI agents to query, filter, and analyze thousands of datasets from national, regional, and local administrations.

What you can do

Dataset Discovery — Search for specific datasets by title or browse the entire catalog with advanced pagination and sorting.
Advanced Filtering — Narrow down results by publisher ID, specific themes (e.g., health, economy), or file formats like CSV, JSON, and RDF.
Geographic Analysis — Filter data by spatial scope, including provinces, regions, or specific administrative levels.
Metadata Inspection — Retrieve detailed metadata for any dataset, including its distributions, update frequency, and issuing body.
Public Sector Mapping — List and inspect public sector organizations, provinces, and regions involved in the open data ecosystem.

FAQ

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.

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
