Frequently Asked Questions

What are open data MCP servers?

Open data MCP servers wrap APIs that publish non-secret information: census figures, weather archives, transit schedules, and similar sources. Authentication is often minimal, but respect each publisher's attribution requirements.

Is the data always free?

Many sources are free; some require API keys with usage tiers. Read each provider's terms — throttling and attribution rules still apply even when the underlying data is public.

Can I rely on open data for compliance?

Open data helps with context, not legal determinations. Verify freshness, jurisdiction, and official sources before basing regulated decisions solely on tool output.

Each server comes with AI skills that teach your assistant the domain knowledge it needs to use the tools correctly.
