Part of the Swiss Public Data MCP Portfolio — connecting AI models to Swiss public data sources.

🔧 Tools

Tool annotations

All tools carry MCP tool annotations so a host can reason about them without calling. Every tool is identical here — it only ever reads from the public BAG IDD API:

A host may therefore treat all calls as safe, cacheable reads. The values are declared once as READ_ONLY in server.py and applied to all 8 tools.

🧩 MCP Primitives

This server uses all three MCP primitives, each for what it is best at:

Tools (8) — live, parameterised actions that call the IDD API (above).

Resources — static, read-only reference data a host can fetch and cache, no arguments or upstream call needed:

Prompts — reusable, parameterised workflows a host can surface (e.g. as slash-commands):

Live surveillance data stays behind Tools (it is parameterised and changes weekly); fixed referenc
