Tools

ToolDescription
catalog_browseBrowse the CBS time-series catalog. With no subject_id, returns the top-level subjects (Foreign Trade, Population, Balance of Payments, Consumer Price Index, etc.) — each with a numeric path id. Pass that id back as subject_id to drill into a subject's full set of leaf series paths. The catalog is hierarchical; each catalog entry has a 'path' breadcrumb array and a 'name'. Use this to discover what's available before calling get_series_data.
get_series_dataFetch the actual time-series observations for a CBS series by its numeric series id (the leaf id found via catalog_browse). Returns metadata (subject path, unit, prices, last update) plus an array of observations with TimePeriod (e.g. "2026-04") and Value. Covers Israeli economic and demographic statistics. Optionally filter by start_period / end_period (YYYY-MM or YYYY).
index_catalogList the official CBS price-index catalog tree: chapters (Consumer Price Index, Wholesale Price Index, Housing Price Index, etc.) and their codes. Each code has a numeric codeId used by get_index_data. Use this to find the index code you want (e.g. 120010 = Consumer Price Index - General).
get_index_dataFetch monthly values for a CBS price index by its numeric code (from index_catalog, e.g. 120010 = CPI General). Returns per-month entries with the index value, the monthly percent change (percent) and the year-over-year change (percentYear) — i.e. Israeli inflation. Optionally filter by start_period / end_period (YYYY-MM or YYYY).

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cbs-il": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/cbs-il/mcp"
    }
  }
}

What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/cbs-il/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-toolsask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.

This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1476+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Cbs Il data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
