What the publisher says
From the Dataville repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
dataville-mcp
MCP server exposing Dataville's data source API as tools for MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, etc.).
Dataville is a unified REST API over ten public datasets — Wikipedia, arXiv, Project Gutenberg, US Census, USDA FoodData, Papers with Code, SEC EDGAR, OpenAlex, PyPI, and Stack Exchange — behind one interface and one API key, with CSV/Parquet export and SQL query support. This package lets an MCP client search any of those sources as a tool call.
Requires a Dataville API key — get one from the Dataville dashboard.
Tools
All four only read data. querydataville covers every stored source except census and news, which are fetched live per search. It returns at most 1,000 rows per call and is billed per row returned. It reads Dataville's stored copy: some sources are loaded in bulk, others only hold records fetched before, so for one specific item searchdataville is the reliable route.
What you can ask
Once connected, ask in plain language and the client picks the source:
- "Find an arXiv paper on retrieval-augmented generation and summarize it."
- "What did Apple report in its latest SEC filing?"
- "What's the median household income in Travis County, Texas, per the US Census?"
- "How much protein is in 100 g of cooked lentils, according to USDA FoodData?"
- "Look up the requests package on PyPI — what's the latest version and license?"
- "List ten Project Gutenberg books by Jane Austen, with their subjects."
- "List five USDA FoodData entries with 'lentils' in the name, with their categories."
Setup
This package is a local (stdio) MCP server: the client launches it on your machine via npx. If you don't need it running locally, connecting to Dataville's hosted endpoint instead takes one line and no install.
Hosted, in one line (no install)
Dataville also serves MCP directly over HTTP, so a client can connect without running anything locally — no Node, no config file, no restart:
