Analyze Export Data

Use `get_exports` to pull data on goods and services exports as a percentage of GDP. This function gives you the current global export figures, allowing your agent to quantify trade activity immediately. It reports the percentage contribution of exports to a country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Your production agents can use this metric to quickly benchmark international commodity performance against historical data.

Check Unemployment Rates

The `get_unemployment_rate` tool fetches the total unemployment rate as a percentage of the labor force. This is critical for assessing immediate labor market health, letting your agents spot potential economic dips or upticks. It gives you one key metric: the percentage of people actively seeking work who can't find it. Your AI client uses this to build safety-constrained reports on global employment trends.

Get Foreign Investment Status

You call `get_fdi` to get net Foreign Direct Investment inflows as a percentage of GDP. This metric shows how much capital is flowing into the economy, which is always important for long-term planning. The tool returns FDI data that helps determine if an investment environment is stable or risky. Passing this information through your agent allows it to perform multi-step financial analysis.

Setup guide

Set up World Bank Labor & Trade MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
openai-agents package (pip install openai-agents)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install the SDK

Run pip install openai-agents to install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use MCPServerSse with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all World Bank Labor & Trade tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

Pass the MCP to Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives World Bank Labor & Trade tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically.
4

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate World Bank Labor & Trade tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.

agent.py

import asyncio
from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.mcp import MCPServerSse

async def main():
    async with MCPServerSse(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ) as server:
        agent = Agent(
            name="World Bank Labor & Trade Agent",
            instructions="You have access to World Bank Labor & Trade tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about World Bank Labor & Trade MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

The MCP Server exposes specific tools for accessing World Bank data. Your agents discover these tools automatically, allowing them to perform targeted queries without needing pre-written code paths.

Absolutely. You can run your agent to fetch labor force size (`get_labor_force`) and then immediately compare it against indicators like `get_unemployment_rate`. This lets you build complex, multi-source reports.

The server primarily handles economic metrics and percentage values. You'll get rates (like unemployment) and ratios (like exports % of GDP), which are all numeric, quantitative figures.

Yes. By using `get_exports` and combining it with other indicators like FDI, your agent can build a strong picture of the country's overall trade balance health.

The `get_labor_trade_indicator` tool accepts standard World Bank codes. This gives you flexibility to query any specific data point the organization tracks, not just those listed in the main tools.
