Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote, read-only MCP server that lets an assistant find official health datasets and pull country time series such as life expectancy or health spending.

What you can do
  • Search a catalog of official health datasets by topic, country and source
  • Inspect a dataset's dimensions, country coverage and latest values
  • Read full dataset metadata, source and period range
  • Retrieve a country's time series, optionally narrowed by dimension values and start period
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to answer questions about population health, causes of death, health expenditure or healthcare resources using official statistics from WHO, Eurostat, OECD, the World Bank and national statistics offices, without building your own data pipeline.
Requirements
A remote Streamable HTTP endpoint; no account, API key or environment variables are needed. The README notes a fair-use daily limit, with a keyed Monitly MCP offered for higher volumes. Network access to the hosted endpoint is required.
Before you install
Read-only: it retrieves datasets and series but does not write or change anything. Requests go to a third-party hosted service, so the topics and countries you query are visible to that operator. A fair-use daily limit applies, and higher-volume use points to a separate keyed service.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Health Statistics in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.ContentWriterco%2Fhealth-statistics/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

search_catalog

Search health statistics

Find official health datasets (Eurostat, OECD, World Bank, IMF, WHO, national statistics offices). Use first to get dataset ids. Optional country and source filters. Returns dataset cards, not values.

Parameterslimitqueryrequiredcountrysource_name

inspect_dataset

Inspect dataset

Show one dataset's dimensions, default series and the latest few values for a country. Use after search_catalog to check the dataset fits before pulling the full series.

Parametersidrequiredcountry

get_dataset

Get dataset metadata

Full metadata for one dataset: description, source, period range, dimension labels, default view and covered countries.

Parametersidrequired

get_series

Get time series

Time series values for one country from a dataset (oldest first). Optionally pick a series by exact dimension values (from inspect_dataset) and a start period such as 2015, Q1/2015 or 01/2015.
