Data.gov MCP Server
An MCP server for accessing data from Data.gov, providing tools and resources for interacting with government datasets.
Installation
- **Install the package globally:** ```bash npm install -g @melaodoidao/datagov-mcp-server ```
- **Configure the MCP Server:** - Add the following entry to your `cline_mcp_settings.json` file (usually located in `~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/` on macOS): ```json { "mcpServers": { "datagov": { "command": "datagov-mcp-server", "args": [], "env": {} } } } ``` - If you are using the Claude Desktop app, add the entry to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` instead.
Usage
This server provides the following tools:
- `package_search`: Search for packages (datasets) on Data.gov.
- `package_show`: Get details for a specific package (dataset).
- `group_list`: List groups on Data.gov.
- `tag_list`: List tags on Data.gov.
It also provides the following resource template:
- `datagov://resource/{url}`: Access a Data.gov resource by its URL.
You can use these tools and resources with Cline by specifying the server name (`datagov-mcp-server`) and the tool/resource name.
