Connects to the FBI's National Stolen Art File, a public database of stolen artworks and cultural property. The source doesn't detail specific tools, but you'd use this when building applications that need to cross-reference art provenance, verify artwork legitimacy, or flag potentially stolen pieces in gallery or auction systems. Runs through Pipeworx's gateway with no authentication required, and you can query it either by calling tools directly or using their ask_pipeworx interface that interprets natural language questions. Part of a larger gateway offering 764+ data sources if you need to combine art crime data with other investigative or cultural heritage APIs.
FBI Art Crimes MCP — FBI National Stolen Art File (free, no auth).
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 764+ live data sources.
| Tool | Description |
|---|
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"fbi-artcrimes": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/fbi-artcrimes/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 764+ 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 Fbi Artcrimes data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
