# mcp-dataverse-harvard
Harvard Dataverse MCP.
Part of [Pipeworx](https://pipeworx.io) — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 673+ live data sources.
## Tools
| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `search` | Search datasets / files / dataverses. |
| `dataset` | Dataset metadata by DOI persistent id (e.g. "doi:10.7910/DVN/..."). |
| `dataset_files` | List files in a dataset. |
| `dataverse` | Dataverse (collection) metadata by alias or id. |
## Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"dataverse-harvard": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/dataverse-harvard/mcp"
}
}
}
```
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
```
## Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
```
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Dataverse Harvard data" })
```
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
