List sources and their operations, grouped by domain: stats, transport, environment, energy, economy, law/politics, places/property. Start here. Filter by topic, geo_level (national, nuts2, nuts3, county, local_authority, constituency, lea, ed, small_area, town, point), join_key, has_time_series or text to get matching operations with compact dataset cards (geography, time coverage, cadence, join keys).

With source only: the full dataset card (topics, geography levels, time coverage, cadence, dimensions, join keys, freshness, licence, auth, example questions). With operation too: its argument JSON schema, an example and its card.

Filter, join, aggregate, rank and sort whole tables on the server; returns only the answer rows, each input's provenance and the query echo. tables: {alias, table_id} (from an ireland_call result) or {alias, source, operation, args}, each with optional own steps (no joins); put source filters (council, dates, codes) in args. No steps: columns, row count and preview per table. Steps run in order: {"filter": ["col", ">", 0]} (= != > >= < <= in not_in contains starts_with is_null not_null; {"and"|"or": [..]}, {"not": ..}); {"join": "alias", "on": "col"|["l","r"], "type": "left", "normalize": true}; {"union": "alias"}; {"derive": {"rate": "a / [Col B] * 1000"}} (round abs min max coalesce if lower norm concat substr split_part replace number year pct_change …); {"aggregate": {"n": "count", "u": "sum:units", "d": "weighted_avg:score:pop"}, "group_by": ["county"]} (count count_distinct sum avg min max median weighted_avg first); {"select": [..]|{"new": "old"}}; {"sort": "-n"}; {"limit": 10}; {"rank": {"by": "n"}}; {"pct_of_total": {"col": "n"}}; {"distinct": [..]}. Limits: 4 tables, 10,000 rows each, 50,000 rows after a join, 20 steps. Partial tables are an error, never computed.

All geography codes for an Irish place: county, province, council, LEA, Dáil constituency, NUTS3, electoral division (ED) and, for lat/lon, small area, with population shares where areas straddle. Takes a name (English or Irish, 'Co. Mayo', 'Dublin 8', 'Tallaght Central, South Dublin'), an ED/small-area/NUTS3 code, or lat/lon. list returns the EDs, LEAs, constituencies or councils inside.

For a WGS84 point in Ireland: county, local authority, LEA, constituency, electoral division, small area and settlement (GeoHive) with crosswalk codes, the nearest Met Éireann station and forecast, recorded monuments within 500 m (SMR) and NPWS protected sites at the point. Not live observations, river levels, buoys, bikes or populations: use ireland_call for those.
