MCP server for Veritas Acta — contribute, challenge, verify, and query contestable public records from AI coding tools.
Search for Data360 indicators with enriched metadata for selection. Use when the user asks for data on a development topic (e.g. GDP, poverty, education). Default to using the single `query` parameter for any single topic/indicator search. Use the `queries` or `query_groups` parameters ONLY when the request involves multiple topics or scopes (2 or more). Provide exactly one of `query`, `queries`,
ArgumentsA call is made on an account: it counts against an allowance and the publisher sees it, which is why this one asks who you are first.

> Official World Bank MCP server for querying Data360 global development indicators and datasets.
World Bank Data360 is free: there is no plan to choose, no cap to set and nothing that can bill you.
Collected from a public index. Nobody has claimed this account, so nothing here was written by its author — claim it if it is yours.
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. Nothing here runs on your machine — this server runs on the publisher’s own infrastructure behind our gateway, and what you install is the connection to it.
This is a public server: you run it yourself and this marketplace is not in the path. Claude Code registers it in one command.
claude mcp add --transport http world-bank-data360-mcp https://maimcpext.worldbank.org/ext/data360/mcpReconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
One config entry pointing at the gateway. The server itself runs on the publisher’s own infrastructure, so nothing from this listing executes on your machine.
15 tools, with what each one reads, writes and reaches shown before you agree — the same list on every route above. Read the tool surface.

Search for Data360 indicators with enriched metadata for selection. Use when the user asks for data on a development topic (e.g. GDP, poverty, education). Default to using the single `query` parameter for any single topic/indicator search. Use the `queries` or `query_groups` parameters ONLY when the request involves multiple topics or scopes (2 or more). Provide exactly one of `query`, `queries`,
Takes no parameters.
Search for Data360 datasets matching a query. Use when the user asks for dataset details, catalogs, or source databases (e.g. "Findex", "WDI"). Args: query: Topic or dataset search term (e.g. "findex"). Avoid special characters like parentheses () or dollar signs $ as they cause search failures. limit: Max datasets to return (default 10). offset: Offset for pagination.
Takes no parameters.
Get metadata and disaggregation options for a Data360 indicator. Use when you need detailed methodology, source notes, or limitations for an indicator. Ensure the database ID and the indicator ID are already in context (e.g., from `data360_search_indicators`) before using this tool. Do not guess or hallucinate these IDs. Args: database_id: Database identifier (e.g., "WB_WDI"). indicator_
Takes no parameters.
Retrieve indicator observations from the Data360 API. Use when you need actual numeric values (OBS_VALUE) for specific countries and years. Ensure the database ID and the indicator ID are already in context before using this tool. Do not guess or hallucinate these IDs. Call `data360_get_disaggregation` first to find available years and breakdowns for the `disaggregation_filters`. Args: datab
Takes no parameters.
Get valid filter values and disaggregation options for an indicator. Use to find available dimensions (e.g., SEX, AGE) and years before querying data or charts. Ensure the database ID and the indicator ID are already in context before using this tool. Do not guess or hallucinate these IDs. Args: database_id: Database identifier (e.g., "WB_WDI"). indicator_id: Indicator ID (e.g., "WB_WDI_
Takes no parameters.
Resolve user-friendly names to API dimension codes. Use when you need to find codes for country names, sex, age, urbanisation, etc. Args: codelist_type: Dimension name (e.g. "REF_AREA", "SEX", "AGE", "URBANISATION"). query: Search term (e.g. "Kenya", "female"). limit: Max results to return (default 5).
Takes no parameters.
Get all indicator IDs for a specific database. Use when you need the full list of indicator IDs for a dataset. Args: database_id: The database identifier (e.g., "WB_WDI").
Takes no parameters.
Generate the raw Data360 API URL for an indicator request. Low-level tool: use only when the caller specifically asks for the URL. Ensure the database ID and the indicator ID are already in context before using this tool. Do not guess or hallucinate these IDs. Args: database_id: Database identifier (e.g. "WB_WDI"). indicator_id: Indicator ID (e.g. "WB_WDI_NY_GDP_PCAP_KD"). country_co
Takes no parameters.
Generate a Vega-Lite chart from a single Data360 indicator. Use when the user requests a chart or plot for a single indicator. Ensure the database ID and the indicator ID are already in context before using this tool. Do not guess or hallucinate these IDs. Call `data360_get_disaggregation` first to find available years and breakdowns for the `disaggregation_filters`. Args: database_id: Datab
Takes no parameters.
Generate a Vega-Lite chart comparing multiple Data360 indicators. Use when you need to compare 2–4 indicators (e.g. via scatterplot or dual-axis line chart). Ensure the database IDs and indicator IDs are already in context before using this tool. Do not guess or hallucinate these IDs. Args: indicator_ids: List of database/indicator dicts, e.g. [{"database_id": "WB_WDI", "indicator_id": "..."
Takes no parameters.
Return supported chart types and their data requirements as JSON. Use when deciding which chart_type value to pass to visualization tools.
Takes no parameters.
Expand a REF_AREA group code into its constituent country codes. Use when you need individual country codes for a regional or income group code (e.g. "SAS"). Args: group_code: The group code to expand (e.g. "SAS" for South Asia, "LIC" for Low Income).
Takes no parameters.
Compute summary statistics for indicator data, grouped by dimensions. Use when the user asks about trends, changes over time, or general statistical summaries. Ensure the database ID and the indicator ID are already in context before using this tool. Do not guess or hallucinate these IDs. Args: database_id: Database identifier (e.g. "WB_WDI"). indicator_id: Indicator ID (e.g. "WB_WDI_NY_
Takes no parameters.
Rank countries by indicator value for a specific year. Use when asked to rank countries, find leaderboards, or query top/bottom performing economies. Ensure the database ID and the indicator ID are already in context before using this tool. Do not guess or hallucinate these IDs. Args: database_id: Database identifier (e.g. "WB_WDI"). indicator_id: Indicator ID (e.g. "WB_WDI_NY_GDP_PCAP_K
Takes no parameters.
Compare an indicator across multiple countries (2 to 8). Use when asked to compare specific countries or find gaps/convergence between them. Ensure the database ID and the indicator ID are already in context before using this tool. Do not guess or hallucinate these IDs. Call `data360_get_disaggregation` first to find available years and breakdowns for the `disaggregation_filters`. Args: data

What counts against your monthly calls
| Tool | Unit | Calls used | Out of the allowance |
|---|
Nothing here is billable. World Bank Data360 costs nothing to install and nothing to call, at any volume.
Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.
This listing is a hosted endpoint: the publisher runs it and we connect to it. The scanner reads packages and source, and neither exists to read here, so there is no grade — not a withheld one, an unmeasured one. What can be checked instead is on Installation: what it asks to reach and what it writes.
Release history
Pinned to 0.1.0 — the install command below asks for that release. A pin is part of an install, so it is kept for this visit and written down when you install.
No release note was published with this version.
Only accounts with at least 50 real tool calls against this server in the last 90 days can post. Ratings are weighted by how much the reviewer actually uses it, and publishers can reply once per review.
Writing one takes an account with at least 50 real tool calls against World Bank Data360 in the last 90 days. That is the whole gate — there is no other way to post, which is why the counts beside each review are worth reading.
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes an account with 50 real tool calls against it.
