About
World Monitor runs a Streamable HTTP MCP server at worldmonitor.app/mcp exposing roughly 60 tools spanning markets and macro data, geopolitical risk, energy intelligence, and movement tracking (airspace, maritime, flight search). Behind it sits an aggregation engine pulling from 500+ curated news feeds across 15 categories, 29 financial exchanges, and a Country Instability Index covering 31 tier-1 nations — the same data that powers its public dashboard, just callable as structured tool calls instead of read off a page.
Tool discovery (tools/list) is open with no key required, so an agent can inspect what's available before you commit to an account; actually calling a tool (tools/call) needs either an X-WorldMonitor-Key header or OAuth. That split makes it easy to prototype an integration and only pay the setup cost once you know which tools you need — get_world_brief and get_country_risk for quick summaries, or narrower ones like get_conflict_events and get_energy_intelligence for something more targeted.
Key features
- ~60 MCP tools spanning markets, geopolitics, energy, and movement (airspace/maritime/flights)
- AI-generated briefs (get_world_brief, get_country_brief) synthesizing underlying feeds into a summary
- Country Instability Index covering 31 tier-1 nations, exposed via get_country_risk
- Public, keyless tool discovery — authentication is only required to actually execute a tool call
- Historical query tools (search_intel_history, get_intel_timeline) for tracking how a situation evolved
- Official SDKs in Python, Ruby, and Go plus a CLI (worldmonitor / wm) for scripted access outside MCP
Use cases
- Asking an agent for a same-day geopolitical or market brief on a specific country or region
- Feeding conflict-event or airspace data into a research or reporting workflow without manual dashboard checks
- Screening energy-market or shipping-lane developments as part of a supply-chain risk process
- Building a lightweight analyst assistant that can pull historical intel timelines on demand

Frequently asked questions
Can I browse the available tools without an API key?
Yes — the tools/list endpoint is public. You only need an X-WorldMonitor-Key header or OAuth once you actually call a tool with tools/call.
Is this the same data as the World Monitor dashboard?
Yes, the MCP server sits on top of the same aggregation engine — 500+ feeds, 29 exchanges, and the Country Instability Index — just returned as structured tool output instead of a rendered page.
