Tool	Description
`search_schools`	Search US colleges and universities by name. Returns school name, location, tuition, admission rate, student size, median earnings, and completion rate. Example: search_schools("MIT", "MA").
`get_school`	Get detailed info for a specific college by its College Scorecard ID. Returns tuition, admission rate, student size, median earnings after 10 years, completion rate, and median debt.

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "college-scorecard": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/college-scorecard/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about College Scorecard data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
