The path to any answer is the same: search the catalogue for a keyword, take the index code, then ask for its series or hand it to the calculator. What makes the output trustworthy is that it carries the bureau's own qualifications rather than flattening them — provisional housing values are marked as provisional, and every code reports the period it actually covers, so a short series is never mistaken for a long one.
A read-only client for the CBS price-index API. It walks the catalogue from chapters down to individual index codes, returns the time series behind any of them, and runs the bureau's own inflation-adjustment calculation.
- The catalogue searched by keyword across the whole tree, which is how you get from a word like housing to an index code you can query
- The authoritative chapter list — Consumer Price Index, housing market, producer prices, building inputs, road construction, agriculture, bus and minibus inputs — then the subjects inside a chapter, then the concrete codes under a subject with their date coverage and update frequency
- The historical series for one code over a month range, or just the last N points, with chaining coefficients available
- The official CBS linkage calculator: a monetary amount adjusted between two dates using a named index
- A snapshot of the headline indices with values across base periods and the latest monthly percent change, and the same headline set over a month range, returned both flat and grouped by month
- The full current-month index tree, filterable to one chapter because the unfiltered payload is large
- Answers in Hebrew by default, since that is the CBS default, and in English when you ask in English
No API key — CBS data is free and public, and the server only reads it over HTTPS. It runs over stdio as npx -y @reuvenorg/israel-statistics-mcp, with a Docker image as an alternative. Date formats differ by tool and matter: mm-yyyy for an index series, yyyy-mm-dd for the calculator, and compact yyyymm for the headline range, which cannot start earlier than 199701. History depth varies by index — the general CPI runs back decades while others do not. Housing figures update every two months and the last three published values are provisional, which the server flags on its own. MIT.
One command — npx -y @reuvenorg/israel-statistics-mcp
