About Asian Development Bank MCP Server
The Asian Development Bank MCP Server connects your AI agent to the official Key Indicators Database (KIDB) maintained by the ADB — the principal multilateral development finance institution for the Asia-Pacific region.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Asian Development Bank tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 3 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
Core Capabilities
- GDP & National Accounts — Track economic output, growth rates, and GDP deflators across China, Japan, India, South Korea, and 45 other economies.
- Inflation & Consumer Prices — Monitor CPI-based inflation trends that drive monetary policy in the world's fastest-growing markets.
- Trade & Balance of Payments — Analyze import/export volumes and current account balances across the entire ASEAN corridor and beyond.
- Shortcut Tools — Dedicated quick-access endpoints for GDP and inflation that require only economy codes and a start year.
