FAQ from PSGC MCP Server
How often is the data updated?
Data is sourced from the PSA’s quarterly PSGC publication and cached in Cloudflare KV. If data appears stale, users can open an issue to request an unscheduled refresh.
Do I need authentication or an API key?
No. The server is public, read-only, and requires no authentication. Simply point your MCP client to the URL.
What geographic levels are available?
Eight levels: Reg (18), Prov (82), Dist (4), City (149), Mun (1,493), SubMun (16), SGU (~8), and Bgy (~42,000). Special cases include NCR districts and BARMM Special Geographic Units.
How are response data structured?
All data responses are wrapped in { _meta, data } where _meta includes dataset version, date, source, and last synced timestamp. Error responses are returned as plain text without wrapping.
What is the PSGC code format?
A 10-digit code with leading zeros significant. Segments encode region, province, city/municipality, and barangay. The README documents known edge cases (e.g., NCR districts, Cotabato City, BARMM SGUs).
