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 for Cron Jobs

Schedule repeatable integration workflows from cron while keeping credentials in KosmoKrator config.

Use the headless CLI from cron when an operation should run without an interactive agent session. The World Bank CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# World Bank CLI for Cron Jobs
kosmokrator integrations:configure worldbank --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call worldbank.worldbank_countries '{"query":"example_query","region":"example_region","income_level":"example_income_level"}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect World Bank docs and schemas 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

`worldbank.worldbank_country_info`	Read	code	Get detailed information for a specific country by ISO code, including region, income level, lending type, capital city, and coordinates.
`worldbank.worldbank_get_data`	Read	indicator, countries, date_range, mrnev, per_page	Fetch economic indicator data for one or more countries from the World Bank. Supports date ranges and most-recent-value mode. Use `worldbank_indicators` to find indicator codes and `worldbank_countries` to find ISO codes.
`worldbank.worldbank_compare_data`	Read	indicator, countries, date_range	Compare a single economic indicator across multiple countries. Returns the most recent value for each country side-by-side. Use `worldbank_indicators` to find indicator codes.

Automation Notes

Use --json for machine-readable output.
Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
