Connects to the World Bank's Climate Change Knowledge Portal to pull climate data and projections directly into your MCP client. Part of the Pipeworx gateway ecosystem, which aggregates 705+ data sources behind a unified interface. The source repository doesn't list specific tools, but you can query it using ask_pipeworx by asking questions in plain English about climate data instead of calling structured endpoints. Useful when you need authoritative climate statistics, country-level projections, or historical weather patterns without leaving your AI workflow. Available as a standalone server or through the full Pipeworx gateway for broader data access.
World Bank Climate Change Knowledge Portal (CCKP) MCP.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1476+ live data sources.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
get_climate_data | World Bank CCKP climate data for any country: historical observations and CMIP6 climate-model projections. Returns mean temperature, max/min temperature, or precipitation, by emissions scenario. Pass the components as separate args — this tool assembles the brittle composite "indicator code" for you. Values are returned keyed by ISO3 country code; the inner key is "-07" (annual/period) or per-season months.nnWORKED EXAMPLES (all verified live):n1. Historical annual mean temperature for the USA (defaults): {"geography":"USA"} => tas climatology over 1995-2014, ~10.2°C.n2. Projected warming (anomaly) for the USA mid-century under a high scenario: {"geography":"USA","scenario":"ssp585","period":"2040-2059","product":"anomaly"} => ~2.4°C above baseline.n3. Historical annual precipitation for all countries: {"geography":"all_countries","variable":"pr","product":"climatology","period":"1995-2014","scenario":"historical"} => mm/year per country.nnIf assembly ever fails for an exotic combination, pass the full composite string via indicator_code instead. |
list_options | Return a static reference object documenting all verified CCKP indicator-code components: valid variables (tas/tasmax/tasmin/pr), scenarios (historical + SSP119–585), periods, products (climatology/anomaly), aggregations (annual/seasonal), and the 11-token composite code order. Takes no arguments; call before get_climate_data to choose valid parameter combinations.Call this to learn valid variables, scenarios, periods, products, and aggregations before building a get_climate_data request. Takes no arguments. |
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"worldbank-climate": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/worldbank-climate/mcp"
}
}
}
tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/worldbank-climate/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 Worldbank Climate data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
