PBGC Pension Data

What is the PBGC Pension Data MCP Server?

Connect to the PBGC (Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation) open data repository and empower your AI agent to analyze US pension plan health and regulatory metrics through natural conversation.

What you can do

  • Single-Employer Plans — List and filter active plans by EIN, Plan Number, or State to monitor corporate pension landscapes.
  • Multiemployer Plans — Retrieve comprehensive lists of active multiemployer plans insured by the PBGC.
  • ERISA 4044 Rates — Access critical interest assumptions (select and ultimate rates) used for determining the present value of annuities.
  • Financial Assistance — Track and analyze financial assistance payments made by the PBGC to multiemployer plans by fiscal year.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Enter your PBGC Open Data API Key (or public token)
  3. Start querying pension datasets directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Who is this for?

  • Financial Analysts — quickly gather data on pension plan premiums and financial assistance trends.
  • Actuaries & Legal Professionals — retrieve ERISA 4044 interest assumptions for valuation and compliance without manual spreadsheet lookups.
  • Policy Researchers — analyze the distribution of pension plans across different states and fiscal years.

Why VS Code Copilot?

GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings PBGC Pension Data data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 4 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.

  • VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor

  • Project-scoped MCP configs (.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access

  • Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop

  • GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How can I filter single-employer pension plans for a specific state?

You can use the list_single_employer_plans tool and provide the two-letter state code (e.g., 'NY' or 'CA') in the state parameter to get localized results.

02

Can I retrieve ERISA 4044 interest rates for a specific year and quarter?

Yes! The list_erisa_4044_rates tool accepts optional year and quarter parameters to fetch the exact interest assumptions you need for valuation.

03

Is it possible to see financial assistance payments by fiscal year?

Absolutely. Use the list_financial_assistance tool and specify the fiscal_year (e.g., 2023) to see all payments made to multiemployer plans during that period.

04

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

05

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

06

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

07

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.

08

MCP tools not available

Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
