What is the IBGE Agregados (SIDRA) MCP Server?
Connect to the IBGE SIDRA (System for Automatic Recovery) database and explore Brazil's official statistical aggregates through natural language. This server provides a direct interface to the most comprehensive source of Brazilian demographic and economic data.
What you can do
- Survey Discovery — List and filter IBGE aggregates (tables) by subject, period, or classification to find exactly the data you need.
- Metadata Inspection — Retrieve detailed metadata for specific tables to understand the context and methodology of the data.
- Variable Analysis — Identify all available variables within an aggregate to prepare precise data queries.
- Temporal Coverage — Check available time periods for any survey to build historical series or snapshots.
- Geographic Granularity — Discover which territorial levels (National, State, City, etc.) are available for specific datasets.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- No complex API keys are required for this public data service
- Start querying Brazilian statistics directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Data Scientists & Analysts — quickly locate specific tables and variables for economic or social modeling.
- Researchers & Academics — access official census and survey metadata without navigating complex web portals.
- Developers — integrate official Brazilian statistics into applications with ease.
Built-in capabilities (5)
Get available geographic levels for an aggregate
Get metadata for a specific aggregate
Get available time periods for an aggregate
Get variables for a specific aggregate
Allows multidimensional filtering. List IBGE aggregates (surveys/tables)
Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings IBGE Agregados (SIDRA) data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 5 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Why teams choose Vinkius for IBGE Agregados (SIDRA) in VS Code Copilot
The IBGE Agregados (SIDRA) MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 5 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in VS Code Copilot only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
IBGE Agregados (SIDRA) for VS Code Copilot
Every tool call from VS Code Copilot to the IBGE Agregados (SIDRA) MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How can I find specific surveys related to a topic like 'Employment'?
Use the list_agregados tool and provide a keyword in the assunto parameter. The agent will return a list of all relevant aggregate tables and their IDs.
Can I see which years or months are available for a specific table ID?
Yes! By using the get_periodos tool with the specific Aggregate ID, you can retrieve all available time intervals for that dataset.
How do I know if a table has data at the city level (municípios)?
Run the get_localidades tool for the target Aggregate ID. It will list all supported geographic levels, such as 'Brasil', 'Unidade da Federação', or 'Município'.
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.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
