Data Gov IlSAFE
Advanced MCP server for seamless access to Israeli Government Open Data
Overview
From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.
Production-grade Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Israeli Government Open Data from data.gov.il.
This server gives MCP-compatible clients structured access to Israeli government datasets, resources, tags, organizations, and tabular records through the official CKAN API. It is written in TypeScript, validates inputs and outputs with Zod, returns JSON-first tool responses, and supports both local stdio and remote Streamable HTTP transports.
Highlights
Quick Start
Claude Desktop / Local Stdio
Use the published package directly:
{
"mcpServers": {
"data-gov-il": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "data-gov-il-mcp"]
}
}
}Streamable HTTP
npm install -g data-gov-il-mcp data-gov-il-mcp-http
Then configure your MCP client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"data-gov-il": {
"url": "http://localhost:3664/mcp"
}
}
}Docker
docker run -p 3664:3664 ghcr.io/davidosherproceed/data-gov-il-mcp:latest
For local development:
npm install npm run build npm run start:stdio # or npm run s

Advanced MCP server for seamless access to Israeli Government Open Data
What tools does Data Gov Il expose?
18 in total: 17 read-only, 1 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.
Is Data Gov Il safe to connect to an agent?
The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.
What credentials does Data Gov Il need?
No credential environment variables were found in its source, so it appears to need none.
How does Data Gov Il run?
It speaks stdio and streamable-http, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as data-gov-il-mcp at 3.0.1.
How current is this page?
The grade is for one exact copy of the source (fef3dbc0f2ee), read on 2026-10-08. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
