Frequently asked questions
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.
Can my AI compare the GDP of multiple countries?
Yes. Your agent can ask for the GDP of Brazil, India, and China over the last 10 years and generate a comprehensive comparative analysis.
What if I need an obscure financial indicator?
The server includes an all-access tool where your agent can provide any standard World Bank economic indicator code (like FD.AST.PRVT.GD.ZS) to pull exactly the dataset you need.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
