Category Data and Analytics
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
get_data_by_coordinate Get time series by table coordinate ~102
Fetch observations by choosing one member ID per dimension of a table (get them from get_table_metadata). Example: table 18100004 with member_ids [2, 2] = CPI, Canada, all-items.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| latest_n | integer | – | N most recent periods |
| member_ids | array | yes | One member ID per dimension, in dimension order |
| product_id | integer | yes | Table product ID, e.g. 18100004 |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_data_by_vectors Get time series by vector ID ~120
Fetch observations for up to 10 Statistics Canada vector IDs (a vector uniquely identifies one time series, e.g. v41690973 = CPI all-items Canada). Give a date range, or latest_n most recent periods (default 12).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| end_date | – | – | End of range, YYYY-MM-DD |
| latest_n | integer | – | N most recent periods |
| start_date | string | – | Start of range, YYYY-MM-DD |
| vectors | array | yes | Vector IDs, 'v41690973' or 41690973 |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_series_info Decode a vector ID ~52
What is this vector? Returns the series title, source table, and coordinate for a vector ID.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| vector | string|number | yes | Vector ID, 'v41690973' or 41690973 |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_table_metadata Get table dimensions and members ~106
Structure of a Statistics Canada table: its dimensions and their members with member IDs. Large dimensions are truncated — pass member_filter (e.g. 'gasoline') to find specific members. Use the member IDs with get_data_by_coordinate.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| max_members | integer | – | Max members listed per dimension |
| member_filter | string | – | Keyword to filter dimension members by name |
| product_id | integer | yes | Table product ID from search_tables, e.g. 18100004 |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_tables Search Statistics Canada data tables ~74
Keyword search across all ~8,200 Statistics Canada data tables (CPI, GDP, labour force, housing, population...). Returns product IDs to explore with get_table_metadata.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | – | Max results |
| query | string | yes | Keywords, e.g. 'consumer price index monthly' or 'housing starts' |
No output schema declared.
