Overview

What is SSB-MCP?

SSB-MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides a standardized interface for AI agents to interact with Statistics Norway's (SSB) API, enabling access to Norwegian statistical data through a well-defined structure.

How to use SSB-MCP?

Install Node.js (v18 or higher), clone the repository, run npm install, configure environment variables in a .env file (optionally including an SSB API key), and start the server with npm start. AI agents can then connect via the MCP protocol.

Key features of SSB-MCP

  • Standardized access to SSB’s statistical databases
  • Easy-to-use interface for AI agents
  • Support for both Norwegian and English queries
  • Structured data retrieval from SSB’s API
  • Caching mechanism for improved performance

Use cases of SSB-MCP

  • AI assistants answering questions about Norwegian demographics
  • Automated retrieval of economic indicators for analysis
  • Integration with data-science workflows requiring official statistics
  • Natural-language queries to SSB’s data catalog

Frequently asked questions

1

What does SSB-MCP do that the raw SSB API does not?

SSB-MCP wraps the SSB API in the MCP standard, making it directly consumable by AI agents without custom integration code. It also provides caching and bilingual query support.

2

What are the runtime requirements?

Node.js version 18 or higher and npm or yarn are required. An API key from SSB may be needed depending on the endpoint.

3

Where does the data live?

The server retrieves data on demand from Statistics Norway’s public API; no data is stored locally beyond the optional cache.

4

Is authentication required?

The README notes an "API key from SSB (if required)" – authentication depends on the SSB endpoint being accessed.

5

Is the API documentation complete?

No. The README states that detailed API documentation will be available once the initial implementation is complete.
