What is the Maranhão Open Data MCP Server?
Connect to the Maranhão Open Data Portal to explore government transparency data directly through your AI agent. This server interfaces with the state's CKAN-based infrastructure to provide real-time access to public information.
What you can do
- Dataset Discovery — List all available packages or search for specific topics like education, health, or finance using
list_packagesandsearch_packages. - Metadata Inspection — Retrieve detailed metadata for datasets and specific resources (CSV, PDF, API endpoints) with
get_packageandget_resource. - Data Exploration — Search within specific resource rows using
search_datastoreor execute complex SQL queries against the DataStore for deep analysis withsearch_datastore_sql.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- (Optional) Enter your Maranhão API Key for higher rate limits
- Start querying public data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Researchers & Journalists — quickly find and analyze government spending, social indicators, and public contracts.
- Developers — integrate public data into applications without manually browsing the portal.
- Data Analysts — run SQL queries directly on government datasets to generate insights and reports.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find datasets about a specific topic like 'education'?
You can use the search_packages tool with a query string. For example, searching for 'educação' will return all related datasets available on the portal.
Can I query the actual content of a CSV file without downloading it?
Yes! If the resource is in the DataStore, use search_datastore with the Resource ID to search through the rows directly.
Is it possible to perform complex filtering using SQL?
Absolutely. Use the search_datastore_sql tool to execute standard SQL queries against any resource stored in the portal's DataStore.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
