world-bank-data-guide

world-bank-data-guide is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wentorai/research-plugins. It costs 13 tokens per session (1,792 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to the World Bank's free API for development indicators and country statistics. The data covers topics such as poverty, health, education, trade, the environment, and governance across countries and years.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to retrieve development data, compare countries, build research datasets, and support studies in economics, public health, education, and policy.
Why use it?
It removes the need to gather comparable country statistics from many separate sources. The API also provides indicator details and time-series data for analysis.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

world-bank-data-guide scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

World Bank Data API Guide

Overview

The World Bank Data API provides free access to one of the most comprehensive collections of global development data available. The Indicators API covers over 16,000 development indicators across 217 countries and territories, with time series data spanning several decades. Topics include poverty and inequality, health outcomes, education statistics, infrastructure, trade, environmental metrics, and governance indicators.

This API is a cornerstone resource for researchers in development economics, public health, education policy, environmental science, and political science. The World Bank's data is widely cited in academic publications and policy documents, making it an authoritative source for cross-country comparative research.

The API is entirely free, requires no authentication, and returns data in JSON, XML, or other formats. The v2 API supports pagination, filtering by date ranges and income levels, and provides metadata about indicators and data sources.

Authentication

No authentication is required. The World Bank Data API is free and open.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
