Perplexity

Write Code Using Live GDP Data

The `get_gdp` tool lets the AI call for live Gross Domestic Product (GDP) values. The resulting US$ figure is injected directly into your code block, making it usable right away. You can write a function that calculates market cap based on real-time economic context without having to mock the data.

Calculate Risk Metrics with World Bank Economy Data

Need to calculate risk? Use `get_gdp_growth` for annual percentage changes and pair it with `get_inflation` rates. The AI generates a comparison variable you can use in your financial modeling. It's ideal for building complex simulations that require accurate, external economic parameters.

Access Any Indicator via the MCP Server

The `get_economy_indicator` tool ensures you don't hit a dead end. If your code needs a specific metric—say, trade balance or commodity prices—the AI can fetch it. This means your agent mode has access to diverse World Bank Economy data points and keeps your coding flow uninterrupted.

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".

Common questions about World Bank Economy MCP in Cursor

When you enable Agent mode, the AI calls the MCP Server tool. It then takes the real API response—not a stub—and inserts that live value directly into the code it writes for you.

The server provides GDP, inflation rates, growth percentages, and indicators covering various financial sectors. You just need to tell your AI client what metric you're looking for.

Absolutely. Because Cursor scopes tools to your project, any developer using the server gets access to the same reliable economic indicators when coding.

This server deals with numerical financial data: current US$ for GDP values, percentage rates for inflation and growth, and general indicator readings.

You set up the connection by adding the server details into your project's `.cursor/mcp.json` file and enabling Agent mode in the chat window.
