📊 Monitly MCP Server – Official Statistics for AI Agents

Monitly MCP is a remote Model Context Protocol server that gives Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code and any MCP-compatible agent direct access to official statistics and economic indicators – Eurostat, World Bank, OECD, IMF, WHO and national statistical offices – for 150+ countries.

Ask in plain language: the agent finds the right dataset, checks the country coverage and pulls the time series.

Quick start

1. Create a free account at monit.ly and generate an MCP key in Settings → Integrations → MCP (direct link). MCP keys start with mcpk_.
2. Add the server to your client.

Cursor / Windsurf / VS Code / Claude Desktop (mcp.json / claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "monitly": {
      "url": "https://monit.ly/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer mcpk_YOUR_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http monitly https://monit.ly/api/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer mcpk_YOUR_KEY_HERE"

Clients that only support stdio (via mcp-remote):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "monitly": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://monit.ly/api/mcp",
               "--header", "Authorization: Bearer mcpk_YOUR_KEY_HERE"]
    }
  }
}
