No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Only reads (5)

Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow.

### `fetch`

- The name "fetch" says "fetch": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns the full document for an id obtained from `search`, as { id, title, text, url, metadata }: `text` is the readable content (Markdown) and `url` the canonical public page to cite.

Companion of `search` in the OpenAI Deep Research contract, over the UNESCO UIS statistics (≈5,000 indicators: education — enrolment, completion, literacy, teachers, spending, SDG 4 —, science/R&D (SDG 9.5), culture (SDG 11.4) and demographic context) catalog. Only ids returned by `search` are valid; an unknown id returns an error.
The `uis_*` tools remain the tools for data queries.

Behavior: read-only and idempotent — a live GET against the public source when the document needs it.
```

### `search`

- The name "search" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Searches the UNESCO UIS statistics (≈5,000 indicators: education — enrolment, completion, literacy, teachers, spending, SDG 4 —, science/R&D (SDG 9.5), culture (SDG 11.4) and demographic context) catalog and returns up to 10 matching documents as { id, title, url }, ordered by relevance (an empty list means nothing matched).

This tool exists for the OpenAI Deep Research contract: ChatGPT deep research, company knowledge and research workflows over the Responses API require exactly the tools `search` and `fetch`. Pass one of the returned ids to `fetch` to read the document.
For direct questions and for data (values, series, rankings) prefer the `uis_*` tools, which return the actual data with provenance — this is a catalog index, not a data query.

Query: natural language or keywords, Portuguese or English; accents and case are ignored.

Behavior: read-only and idempotent — the catalog comes from the public source and is cached in memory.
```

### `uis_get_data`

- The name "uis_get_data" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Statistical records from the UNESCO Institute for Statistics Data API, filtered by indicator codes (from uis_search_indicators, up to 25), geo unit codes (from uis_list_geo_units) and year range. Set include_footnotes for per-record source notes. Returns raw UIS records only — it does not aggregate, convert or otherwise transform values; ILO labour statistics live in the sibling ILOSTAT MCP server. Broad queries are rejected with the record count — narrow by geo unit or years. A code that does not exist is an error carrying the UIS API's own wording, never an empty result: zero rows means the codes are real and the selection has no data, and the hint then relays what the UIS reported (including the indicator's available year range). When only SOME of the requested codes exist, the matching rows are returned with `warnings` naming the rest. Values are those of the release named in data_vintage: a new UIS release can revise past years. On a record, `magnitude` says what the value shown means (e.g. NA = not applicable, shown as 0; SUPP = withheld, blank) and `qualifier` says how it was obtained (national or UIS estimate); the provenance notices count them in plain words; both are null when the UIS publishes no flag. The UIS publishes no unit field: the unit usually closes the indicator name in parentheses ("(%)", "(number)", "(years)"), but not always — a parenthesis can also name a parity index (GPIA), an estimate type or an education level, and some names have none.
```

### `uis_list_geo_units`

- The name "uis_list_geo_units" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Valid geographic codes for uis_get_data: 462 geo units — countries (NATIONAL, ISO alpha-3 codes like BRA) and regional aggregates (REGIONAL). Filter by name/code and type. Does not return statistical values; these codes apply only to uis_get_data, not to other statistical servers.
```

### `uis_search_indicators`

- The name "uis_search_indicators" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search the UNESCO Institute for Statistics catalogue of ~5,000 indicators — education, science/R&D, culture and communication — by keywords in the name or code, optionally filtered by theme. All terms must match (AND, case-insensitive), so start with 2–3 words and drop terms if you get 0 results. Everyday and US wording is resolved to the UIS's own (enrollment→enrolment, spending→expenditure, preschool→pre-primary, university→tertiary, graduation→completion, girls/boys→female/male); when that happens the response says so in vocabulary_notes. Returns indicator codes to use with uis_get_data, plus each indicator's data availability (years, record count). Searches the catalogue only — it does not return statistical values (use uis_get_data); ILO labour statistics live in the sibling ILOSTAT MCP server.
```
