ILO Labour Statistics (ILOSTAT) MCP
A provenance-first MCP server for ILOSTAT, the International Labour Organization statistical database. It provides access to 1,200+ indicator dataflows by country, year, sex, and age, including unemployment, wages, and informality metrics. Every response includes a deterministic provenance and attribution block with source, canonical URL, extraction date, and license, ensuring data traceability for AI agents.
Endpoint and access
No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.
https://ilo.sidneybissoli.com/mcpWhat its tools do
6 tools, grouped by the hints the server advertises. Hints are self-declared, not verified behavior.
Checks and signals
Each line is separate evidence, not a trust score.
- Passed Endpoint answered the live check ·
- Availability 1 of 1 checks passed in 30 days
What you can do with it
- What is the unemployment rate in Brazil, latest year, by sex?
- Compare youth unemployment across the Mercosur countries.
- Which ILOSTAT dataflows cover informal employment?

ilo_search_indicators — Search ILOSTAT indicators
Search the ILOSTAT catalogue of ~1,200 indicator dataflows by keywords in the name or id (e.g. "unemployment rate sex age"). All terms must match (AND, case-insensitive), so start with 2–3 English words and drop terms if you get 0 results. Everyday and US wording is resolved to the ILO's own (labor→labour, wages/salary→earnings, informality→informal, gender→sex, productivity→output per worker); when that happens the response says so in vocabulary_notes. Results are ranked by ILO relevance weight, not by match count. Reading the id tells you the shape: suffix _RT = rate/ratio, _NB = number (usually thousands); dataflows whose second token starts with 2 (e.g. DF_UNE_2EAP_…) are ILO modelled estimates with full country/year coverage, the others are reported national data. Returns dataflow ids to use with ilo_get_data / ilo_get_indicator_metadata. Searches the local catalogue only — it does not return statistical values (use ilo_get_data), does not search dimension codes such as countries (use ilo_list_dimension_values) and does not cover non-ILO sources.

}ilo_get_indicator_metadata — Get ILOSTAT indicator metadata
Structure of one ILOSTAT dataflow: dimensions (in SDMX key order), their codelists, the time dimension, the source's default selection and the data vintage (last update at the ILO). Use before ilo_get_data to know which filters exist. Does not return statistical values and does not list the codes themselves (use ilo_list_dimension_values).

}ilo_list_dimension_values — List valid codes of a dimension
Valid codes (id + label) of one dimension of an ILOSTAT dataflow — e.g. the country/area codes of REF_AREA (ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 such as BRA, plus X-codes for aggregates such as X01 World) or the categories of SEX (SEX_T/SEX_M/SEX_F) and AGE. Use `search` to resolve a name to a code (e.g. search "Brazil") instead of paging through hundreds of codes; codelists are shared across dataflows, so a code found here is valid wherever the same codelist is used. Use to build correct ilo_get_data filters. Does not return statistical values, does not say which codes actually have data for a given dataflow, and is not applicable to the time dimension (filter it via start_period/end_period in ilo_get_data).

}ilo_get_data — Get ILOSTAT data
Statistical observations from one ILOSTAT dataflow, filtered by dimension codes (filters, e.g. {"REF_AREA": ["BRA","ARG"], "SEX": "SEX_T"}) and period (start_period/end_period, e.g. "2015"/"2024"). REF_AREA is required, maximum 30 areas per call — for broad panels, split areas into batches and/or paginate by period. Unfiltered dimensions return all their categories. Does not aggregate, convert or otherwise transform values (raw ILOSTAT data only): read each value with the unit and multiplier the ILO states in its row attributes (UNIT_MEASURE, UNIT_MULT — e.g. UNIT_MULT 3 = thousands). Read TIME_PERIOD with the FREQ column (annual, quarterly or monthly) and OBS_STATUS when present (break in series, estimated or provisional value). Values are the current release, dated by data_vintage (the dataflow LAST_UPDATE): the ILO revises published figures and re-estimates modelled series (_2 ids) at each release, past years included. Does not search indicators (use ilo_search_indicators).

}search — Deep Research Search
Searches the ILOSTAT labour statistics (≈1,200 SDMX dataflows: employment, unemployment, wages, working time, informality, SDG labour indicators) catalog and returns up to 10 matching documents as { id, title, url }, ordered by relevance (an empty list means nothing matched). This tool exists for the OpenAI Deep Research contract: ChatGPT deep research, company knowledge and research workflows over the Responses API require exactly the tools `search` and `fetch`. Pass one of the returned ids to `fetch` to read the document. For direct questions and for data (values, series, rankings) prefer the `ilo_*` tools, which return the actual data with provenance — this is a catalog index, not a data query. Query: natural language or keywords, Portuguese or English; accents and case are ignored. Behavior: read-only and idempotent — the catalog comes from the public source and is cached in memory.

}fetch — Deep Research Document
Returns the full document for an id obtained from `search`, as { id, title, text, url, metadata }: `text` is the readable content (Markdown) and `url` the canonical public page to cite. Companion of `search` in the OpenAI Deep Research contract, over the ILOSTAT labour statistics (≈1,200 SDMX dataflows: employment, unemployment, wages, working time, informality, SDG labour indicators) catalog. Only ids returned by `search` are valid; an unknown id returns an error. The `ilo_*` tools remain the tools for data queries. Behavior: read-only and idempotent — a live GET against the public source when the document needs it.

- end_period
- Last year, e.g. "2024" (optional)
ilo_compare_countries — Compare countries on an indicator

- indicator
- Indicator in plain words, e.g. "youth unemployment rate" (required)
- start_period
- First year, e.g. "2015" (optional)
- end_period
- Last year, e.g. "2024" (optional)

- indicator
- Indicator in plain words, e.g. "labour force participation rate" (required)
- country
- Country name or ISO3 code, e.g. "India" or "IND" (required)
