MCP server that provides programmatic access to the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) price indices and economic data
Israel Statistics MCP
Ask your AI assistant about Israeli inflation, prices, and housing data โ straight from the official Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS).
Once installed, Claude (or any MCP-enabled assistant) can look up price indices, chart historical trends, and run the official CBS inflation calculator for you. No API key needed โ the CBS data is free and public.
What can I ask?
Just talk to your assistant naturally:
- "How much is 1,000 โช from January 2015 worth today?"
- "What's the latest Israeli inflation number?"
- "Show me housing price trends from 2020 to 2024."
- "Which price indices exist for food? Compare bread vs. fresh vegetables."
- "Link my 2018 rent of 4,500 โช to today using the CPI."
Answers come in Hebrew by default (it's the CBS default) โ just ask in English to get English.
What's inside
9 read-only tools your assistant uses behind the scenes:
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
get_index_topics | Search all price-index topics by keyword |
get_catalog_chapters | List the index categories (CPI, housing, โฆ) |
get_chapter_topics | Topics inside one category |
get_subject_codes | The concrete index codes for a topic |
get_index_data | Historical values for one index |
get_index_calculator | Official CBS inflation adjustment between two dates |
get_main_indices | Today's headline indices |
get_main_indices_by_period | Headline indices over a month range |
get_all_indices | The full current-month index tree |
Good to know
- Housing data updates every two months, and the last three published values are provisional โ the server warns automatically when recent housing numbers may still change.
- History depth varies โ the general CPI goes back decades; the headline month-range view starts at January 1997.
- It's read-only and free โ the server only reads public CBS data over HTTPS (
api.cbs.gov.il) and talks to nothing else. No account, no key, no tracking.
