How do I get started?

Our World Bank Open Data servers require absolutely zero authentication. You do not need to register, get an API key, or setup webhooks. Just instantly connect and your AI agent can begin querying decades of global data.

How does the AI know which of the 29,506 indicators to use?

The server includes an incredibly powerful `search_indicators` tool. The agent can search by concept (like 'Renewable Energy') and the server returns the precise indicator codes (like 'EG.FEC.RNEW.ZS') needed to pull the data directly.

Is there any rate limit or API key required to process deep geographical queries?

No! This provides frictionless access across the massive public array without writing SDK codes or navigating Webhooks; just connect instantly to the largest global indicator pool on earth.

What is the scale of the data I can access?

You have direct access to 64 years of historical data covering 196+ sovereign states and global regional aggregates, powered directly by the World Bank's robust open data initiatives.

World Bank Full Access + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating World Bank Full Access MCP Server with Cursor.

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
