Install

How do I install the dev.crelvo/german-tax-data MCP server?

dev.crelvo/german-tax-data is a hosted endpoint at https://data.crelvo.dev/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 10 exposed · ~954 tokens

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 →

Tool Tokens
hundesteuer_by_state ~78

Average German dog tax (Hundesteuer, first dog per year) per Bundesland (federal state), aggregated over the covered largest cities — the data behind the Deutschlandkarte. Answers 'which German state has the highest/lowest dog tax'. Note: a mean over cities, not an official state rate (the tax is municipal).

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

hundesteuer_changes ~134

List German cities that changed their Hundesteuer (dog tax) rate in a given year — the fresh-news angle for the annual city comparison. Only 2026 is curated, and it is the default: 14 of the covered cities changed their rate, led by Köln (174 EUR), Lübeck (156 EUR), Lünen (156 EUR). Also returns outlook_2027: 5 cities that have announced or resolved an increase for 2027 but are NOT yet charging it — announced and in force are kept apart deliberately. Every entry checked individually against the municipal statute.
