get_idescat_stats

Obtains the complete list of Idescat statistics (all, normalized and non-normalized). It has no parameters. The response contains a 'statistics' array where each element has: 'acronym' (lowercase acronym, e.g., 'censph', to be used as the 'stat' argument of the other tools), 'name' (title), 'description' (summary), 'datasets' (boolean), 'geo' (array of available territorial disaggregations), and '

get_idescat_stat

Obtains information about an Idescat (Statistical Institute of Catalonia) statistic given its acronym. Use it when the user asks about a specific statistic identified by its acronym (for example, CENSPH, EPA, PIBC, AFI, etc.). The 'datasets' field is a key boolean: if true, the statistic is normalized and therefore available in get_idescat_stat_tables and the rest of the table-level tools (metadat

get_idescat_stat_tables

Obtains the list of tables for an Idescat statistic given its official acronym. Use it when the user asks what tables or information a statistic has. The response contains a 'tables' array where each element has 'id' (numerical identifier) and 'name' (table title). Present each table as: name (id). Inform the user that they can request more details about a table by indicating its identifier.

get_table_metadata

Obtains the metadata for a specific Idescat table in JSON-stat format, given the statistic acronym (stat) and the table identifier (table). Use it when the user wants to know the details of a table: dimensions, categories available for each dimension (time periods, territorial scopes, sex, etc.), date of last update, units, etc. The acronym and identifier are previously obtained with get_idescat_s

get_table_data

Retrieves the data (values) of an Idescat table in JSON-stat format for a territorial division. You can retrieve the ENTIRE table (without filters) or only a SUBSET by passing the OPTIONAL parameters 'filters' (specific categories per dimension) and/or 'last' (number of last time periods); filtering returns smaller responses and allows querying tables that as a whole would exceed the limit. The fi

get_table_geo

Obtains the list of territorial divisions available for an Idescat table (for example: cat=Catalonia, com=counties and Aran, mun=municipalities, prov=provinces, at=territorial plan areas). The response contains a 'divisions' array where each element has 'id' (division code) and 'name' (label). Often it is NOT necessary to call it because get_table_metadata already returns these divisions in 'link.

render_table

Returns a Markdown table already built with the filtered data from an Idescat table, ready to be shown to the user without having to interpret the JSON-stat. It includes the title, units, the table with category labels, status notes (e.g., provisional data), and ALWAYS a final link to the table on the Idescat website that must be kept in the response to the user. By default, it puts the time dimen
