Dst Dk

What Dst Dk does

Dst Dk provides MCP access to Statistics Denmark’s Statbank through the keyless REST API at https://api.statbank.dk/v1. It is suited to agents that need Danish demographic, economic, labour, business, environmental, or other official statistics exposed through Statbank tables.

The server includes a shortcut for common population questions and a set of general discovery and extraction tools. The population shortcut reads table FOLK1A and returns Denmark’s total population together with a recent quarterly trend. For more detailed analysis, agents can find relevant tables, inspect their variables, and submit targeted data requests.

How it works

A typical table query follows this sequence:

1. Browse the subject hierarchy with list_subjects, optionally narrowing the result to a subject or expanding a subtree recursively.
2. Search or filter tables with list_tables by subject, text, or recent updates.
3. Call table_info to obtain the table title, unit, update date, variable codes, and valid value identifiers.
4. Pass those codes and identifiers to get_data in a variables map.

get_data accepts a single value, multiple values, or * for each variable. Variables that support elimination can be omitted to request an aggregate. Results use JSON-stat by default, with BULK or CSV available as semicolon-delimited text formats.

The denmark_population result represents registered residents at the first day of each quarter. For example, 2026Q2 refers to a 1 April snapshot rather than a quarterly average.

Setup and configuration

The hosted MCP endpoint is:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dst-dk": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/dst-dk/mcp"
    }
  }
}

The package can also run locally as a stdio server without a Pipeworx account:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dst-dk": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-dst-dk"]
    }
  }
}

The hosted gateway additionally offers a full Pipeworx endpoint at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp. Pack endpoints include shared gateway tools such as ask_pipeworx, discover_tools, and search or memory functions; the local package exposes only the Dst Dk tools. The gateway also provides HTTP tool access, including POST /v1/tools/denmark_population.

Tools and capabilities

• denmark_population: Return Denmark’s total population and recent quarterly trend from FOLK1A.
• list_subjects: Navigate subject areas and optionally expand child subjects recursively.
• list_tables: Find tables by subject, search text, or recent updates.
• table_info: Inspect units, dates, variables, codes, and valid values before querying.
• get_data: Retrieve selected Statbank data as JSON-stat, BULK, or CSV.

Limitations and notes

The population shortcut is designed for Denmark-wide totals and quarterly trend questions. Use the table discovery and data tools for breakdowns by geography, age, sex, marital status, or other dimensions. Table queries require the exact variable codes and value identifiers returned by table_info. The integration is independent and unofficial, and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or published by Statistics Denmark.
