Gives you standardized ISO lookups for countries, languages, currencies, and scripts using the Debian iso-codes dataset. It's a Pipeworx gateway endpoint, so you get the ask_pipeworx interface that lets you query in plain English instead of calling specific tools. Useful when you need to validate country codes, map language identifiers, look up currency standards, or handle script codes without maintaining your own reference data. The gateway approach means you can add this standalone or connect to the full Pipeworx catalog for 250+ data sources through one config entry. Built on standard ISO datasets, so you're working with the same reference data most systems expect.
ISO codes MCP — country (ISO 3166-1, -2, -3), language (ISO 639-1/-2/-3), currency (ISO 4217), and script (ISO 15924) lookups. Data fetched from the debian iso-codes project (raw JSON on github). Keyless; cached 24h in-pack.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1476+ live data sources.

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"iso-codes": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/iso-codes/mcp"
}
}
}
tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/iso-codes/mcp returns the tools in the table
above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx,
discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the
gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a
single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the
pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and
is the authoritative answer for a given day.
This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a
scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via
ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a
second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without
them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth,
connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1476+ data sources. The
only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx
reaches all of them from either one.
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Iso Codes data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
