FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI download the actual CSV files?

    No. The AI can see the metadata and information about the datasets, but it cannot download or manipulate the files themselves.

  • 02

    Can the AI add new datasets to the government portal?

    No. This MCP is read-only. It can only see what is already published by the government.

  • 03

    Does the AI know about data not listed in the portal?

    No. The AI only knows about the organizations and datasets it can find through the provided tools.

  • 04

    Can I use this to find contact info for agency heads?

    Only if that contact information is part of the organization's published metadata in the portal.

  • 05

    Will the AI update the data if it changes?

    The AI sees the data as it exists at the moment you run the command. It does not track changes automatically.
