Pipeworx Claude Code Plugin

Connect Claude Code to live data from 2,506 tools across 575 packs — SEC filings, USPTO patents, FRED economic data, FDA drug data, Census, EPA, ATTOM real estate, weather, and 567+ more.

Backed by the Pipeworx MCP gateway at gateway.pipeworx.io.

Install

/plugin marketplace add pipeworx-io/claude-code-plugin
/plugin install pipeworx

How it works

The plugin loads 17 meta-tools into Claude's context — not all 2,506 underlying tools. That's deliberate: dumping every tool definition into the context window burns tokens you'll never use (the "context tax").

Instead, Claude reaches for ask_pipeworx or discover_tools and the gateway routes the request to the right pack at session time. You get the full catalog without paying for it up front.

The loaded meta-tools:

• ask_pipeworx — natural-language router. "What's Apple's latest 10-K?" hits SEC EDGAR. "Side effects of Ozempic?" hits FDA. No knowing pack names needed.
• discover_tools — top-20 most relevant tools for a task, with full schemas. Use when you want to see options before committing.
• entity_profile, recent_changes, compare_entities, resolve_entity — fan-out across multiple packs in one call.
• validate_claim — fact-check claims against SEC XBRL. Returns a verdict + citation.
• remember / recall / forget — persistent memory across sessions.
• list_packs, search_packs, get_pack_tools, get_connection_config, get_platform_status, search_mcp_directory — browse the catalog.

The bundled skill teaches Claude when to reach for each.

Verify after install

In Claude Code, run:

/mcp

You should see pipeworx connected with ~17 tools. Then try:

What was the unemployment rate last month?

Claude should call ask_pipeworx (which routes to fred_get_series) and return a real number.

Need direct pack access?

If you want a specific pack's tools loaded directly (e.g., to call attom_property_search without going through ask_pipeworx), add a scoped MCP entry:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx-attom": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/attom/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Or a vertical bundle (e.g., ?vertical=housing for the housing data stack).

Higher rate limits

The plugin runs on the anonymous tier (50 calls/day per IP). For higher limits (500/day BYO, 2,000/day OAuth, or unlimited paid), sign up at pipeworx.io and configure your own MCP entry with an X-API-Key header.
