17 of 17 tools
Documented tools (17)
From project documentation. A server handshake does not verify each tool’s description or behavior.
fetch_vectors_to_database
Fetch vectors by reference period range and store to SQLite.
get_bulk_vector_data_by_range
Multiple vectors filtered by release date range.
get_changed_cube_list
Tables updated on a specific date.
get_changed_series_data_from_cube_pid_coord
Data points that changed for a coordinate.
get_changed_series_data_from_vector
Data points that changed for a vectorId.
get_changed_series_list
Series updated on a specific date.
get_code_sets
Decode StatCan numeric codes (frequency, UOM, scalar factor, status).
get_cube_metadata
Dimension info, member lists, date ranges. summary=True caps members at 10 per dimension.
get_sdmx_data
Filtered observations by productId + key. Returns a CSV download URL on the hosted server — data stays out of context.
get_sdmx_key_for_dimension
All leaf member IDs for a large dimension as a ready-to-paste OR key. Use when a dimension has >30 codes (e.g. NOC, CMAs).
get_sdmx_structure
Dimension codelists + key syntax for a table. Call before getsdmxdata.
get_sdmx_vector_data
Observations for a single vectorId via SDMX.
get_series_info
Resolve {productId, coordinate} pairs to vectorId + metadata.
get_series_info_from_vector
Resolve a vectorId to productId, coordinate, titles, frequency.
query_database
Read-only SQL against the local SQLite database.
search_cubes_by_title
Full-text search across all StatCan tables. AND logic, capped at 25 results.
store_cube_metadata
Fetch full cube metadata into SQLite — browse all members and vectorIds with SQL.

The blocks above are ready to paste.
- Is MCP Statcan MCP Server free?
- The listed licence is MIT. Check the upstream terms for permitted use and commercial requirements; a public repository does not by itself mean the software is free or open source. Connected APIs and hosted services may have separate charges.
- What can MCP Statcan MCP Server do?
- MCP Statcan MCP Server documents 17 tools to the agent, including fetch_vectors_to_database, get_bulk_vector_data_by_range, get_changed_cube_list. The descriptions above come from project documentation. A live handshake does not test individual tool behavior.
