What mcp-brasil-public-apis does

The skill stands up the mcp-brasil MCP server, which hands your agent 213 tools, 55 resources and 45 prompts. Questions about Brazilian government data go in plain language: deputies and bills, the Selic rate and IPCA, court cases, campaign finance, wildfire hotspots, hospital beds. Under the hood sits the mcp_brasil package with one folder per API — an httpx client, Pydantic v2 schemas, constants holding base URLs. The root server.py discovers features by scanning for FEATURE_META, so nothing gets registered by hand.

Two setup routes. For the Claude CLI: claude mcp add mcp-brasil -- uvx --from mcp-brasil python -m mcp_brasil.server. For Cursor and VS Code, drop .vscode/mcp.json into the project root. There is also an HTTP transport — fastmcp run mcp_brasil.server:mcp --transport http --port 8000 serves at http://localhost:8000/mcp.

Keys are required for exactly two APIs: TRANSPARENCIA_API_KEY for Portal da Transparência and DATAJUD_API_KEY for DataJud/CNJ, both free to register. The other 26 answer without one. Tool discovery is tuned with MCP_BRASIL_TOOL_SEARCH, which takes bm25, code_mode or none and defaults to bm25. Timeouts and retry counts live in MCP_BRASIL_HTTP_TIMEOUT and MCP_BRASIL_HTTP_MAX_RETRIES. Skip the two registrations and those tools stay silent.

What it helps with

pull the Selic rate and IPCA from a Banco Central series
trace bills and floor votes for a given deputy
check contracts and sanctions in Portal da Transparência
look up court cases through DataJud
gather candidate and campaign finance records from TSE

Example prompts for the agent

Connect mcp-brasil and list the available features
Find education bills in Câmara dos Deputados
Plan a query: Transparência contracts plus TCU rulings for one supplier
