Can I use World Bank as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a World Bank CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose World Bank through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected World Bank tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are World Bank credentials stored?

World Bank credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for World Bank MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

World Bank CLI Setup

World Bank can be configured headlessly with `kosmokrator integrations:configure worldbank`.

# Install KosmoKrator first if it is not available on PATH.
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenCompanyApp/kosmokrator/main/install.sh | bash

# Configure and verify this integration.
kosmokrator integrations:configure worldbank --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmokrator integrations:doctor worldbank --json
kosmokrator integrations:status --json

Credentials

Authentication type: No credentials none. Configure credentials once, then use the same stored profile from scripts, coding CLIs, Lua code mode, and the MCP gateway.

No credentials are required.

Call World Bank Headlessly

Use the generic call form when another coding CLI or script needs a stable universal interface.

kosmo integrations:call worldbank.worldbank_countries '{
  "query": "example_query",
  "region": "example_region",
  "income_level": "example_income_level"
}' --json

Use the provider shortcut form for shorter human-facing commands.

kosmo integrations:worldbank worldbank_countries '{
  "query": "example_query",
  "region": "example_region",
  "income_level": "example_income_level"
}' --json

Agent Discovery Commands

These commands return structured output for coding agents that need to inspect capabilities before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs worldbank --json
kosmo integrations:docs worldbank.worldbank_countries --json
kosmo integrations:schema worldbank.worldbank_countries --json
kosmo integrations:search "World Bank" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

All CLI Functions

Every function below can be called headlessly. The generic form is stable across all integrations; the provider shortcut is shorter but specific to World Bank.
