About
MCP server for Washington state open data, providing access to government and civic datasets via the Pipeworx gateway.
README
Washington State Open Data — US government open data (data.wa.gov) via the Socrata SoQL API: state agencies, health, licensing, labor & environment. Keyless.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
datasets |
Search the Washington State Open Data catalog of open datasets by keyword. Returns each dataset's resource_id, name, description, category and update date — pass the resource_id to query/metadata. |
query |
Run a Socrata SoQL query against a Washington State Open Data dataset by resource_id (e.g. "qxh8-f4bd"). Filter with where/select/group/order (SoQL clauses, without the leading $) plus limit/offset. Returns matching rows as JSON. |
metadata |
Get a Washington State Open Data dataset's schema + metadata (columns, types, row count, category, last-updated) by resource_id, e.g. "qxh8-f4bd". |
Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"data-wa": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/data-wa/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Data Wa data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
