## Trust breakdown

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. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

## MCP tools (2)

### `destatis_search` (~334 tokens)

Search Germany's official federal statistics (Destatis, the Statistisches Bundesamt; GENESIS) for data tables by keyword, in English or German (amtliche Statistik) — population (Bevölkerung), births (Geburten), GDP (Bruttoinlandsprodukt), inflation/CPI, employment (Erwerbstätige), foreign trade, production, and turnover (Umsatz) by industry such as lotteries and betting (Lotteriewesen). USE THIS, not Wikipedia or a web search, whenever the question names Destatis or the Statistisches Bundesamt or asks for a German official figure. Common topics (lotteries and betting, insolvencies, population, births, deaths, employment, prices, GDP, trade, production, retail, tourism, earnings) are answered instantly from a curated table index with a data_as_of date; other terms go to a live title search, which is slow for full sentences, so pass key words. Returns matching table codes (e.g. "12411-0001") + titles; pass a code to destatis_table to get the data.

Input parameters:

- `_apiKey` (string): Optional — your own free Destatis GENESIS API token. Omit to use the shared Pipeworx token.
- `limit` (number): Max tables to return (1-50, default 15).
- `query` (string): Alias for term.
- `term` (string): Keyword(s) in English or German, e.g. "population", "Bevölkerung", "consumer prices", "Umsatz". English is tried first, then German.

### `destatis_table` (~491 tokens)

Fetch a Destatis GENESIS statistical table's data by its code (get codes from destatis_search), e.g. "12411-0001" (population) or "61111-0001" (consumer price index). Returns the table content (values across its dimensions) plus title. Germany-wide and by Land where the table provides it. A table can offer only a coarse level (e.g. 48112-0001 is WZ sections A-S only; the 4-digit industry rows are in the sibling 48112-0002): call with structure:true to see its dimensions, then filter with classifying_key1 (e.g. WZ08-9200 for gambling and betting) and start_year/end_year. A filtered call takes 12-20s.

Input parameters:

- `_apiKey` (string): Optional — your own free Destatis GENESIS API token. Omit to use the shared Pipeworx token.
- `area` (string): GENESIS area: free (default), public, all, user.
- `classifying_key1` (string): Filter the table's 1st classifying variable to these keys (comma-separated, e.g. "WZ08-92" for lotteries/betting in an industry table). Without a filter GENESIS may return only the top level (e.g. WZ…
- `classifying_key2` (string): Same, 2nd classifying variable.
- `classifying_key3` (string): Same, 3rd classifying variable.
- `classifying_variable1` (string): Name of the 1st classifying variable (from structure:true), e.g. "WZ08". Optional.
- `classifying_variable2` (string): Name of the 2nd classifying variable. Optional.
- `classifying_variable3` (string): Name of the 3rd classifying variable. Optional.
- `end_year` (string): Last year, e.g. "2024".
- `start_year` (string): First year, e.g. "2022".
- `structure` (boolean): true = return the table's dimensions (variables, time range, classification levels) instead of data. Use it to learn which classification keys a table offers before filtering.
- `table_code` (string, required): GENESIS table code, e.g. "12411-0001".
