Ukhsa Tools (3)
navigate
Walk the UKHSA surveillance hierarchy one level at a time to discover valid values. Pass the levels you already know (in order: theme, sub_theme, topic, geography_type, geography) and you get back the list of options for the NEXT level. With no args it lists themes (e.g. infectious_disease, immunis…
list_metrics
Shortcut to list all available metric names for a fully-specified location — supply all five levels (theme, sub_theme, topic, geography_type, geography) at once rather than calling navigate iteratively. Returns metric names like "COVID-19_cases_casesByDay" ready to pass to get_metric_data.(theme, s…

Pull the time series for one fully-specified UKHSA metric. Requires all six levels (theme, sub_theme, topic, geography_type, geography, metric). Returns paginated observations {count, next, previous, results[]} where each result has date, metric_value, year, month, epiweek, sex, age, stratum, geogr…
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
