Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server giving assistants access to Global Database company profiles, financials, ownership, contacts and official registry KYB lookups.

What you can do
  • Look up companies by website, LinkedIn, name, registration number, VAT, ticker or email, and pull full profiles, yearly financials and ownership structures
  • Search and filter companies for prospecting by country, industry, size and revenue, with nomenclature lookups for filter values
  • Find employees by company, name, role, department or seniority, and enrich named contacts with email, phone and socials
  • Run KYB and compliance checks against official government registries: company details, officers, shareholders, group structure and multi-year financials, plus reverse officer and shareholder searches
  • Inspect digital insights such as web traffic, rankings, WHOIS and technologies
  • Load reference…
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs verified company data for sales prospecting, account research, competitor or market analysis, or KYB and compliance due diligence against official registries. It suits teams already holding a Global Database API key who want that data inside a chat client instead of a separate dashboard.
Requirements
A remote Streamable HTTP endpoint; nothing to install locally. Requires a Global Database account and API key, obtained from the provider's site. Authentication is OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and dynamic client registration: on first connect a browser opens a login page where the API key is entered. Some clients need specific config keys or an empty scope; Perplexity custom connectors require a paid plan.
Before you install
The API key is entered in a browser OAuth flow and held in access-token claims server-side; treat it as a billable credential. Tool calls consume credits, and reference resources are offered as a way to avoid spending them. Lookups send company, person and contact queries to a third-party data provider, so consider privacy and GDPR implications for contact enrichment. The server implementation and API are not open source.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Global Database in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.globaldatabase%2Fmcp/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

  "mcpServers": {
    "global-database": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp"

README

Global Database — MCP Server

[Add to Cursor] [Install in VS Code] [Smithery] [MCP Registry]

Remote MCP server that gives LLM agents access to Global Database: company profiles, financials, ownership, digital insights, people search and contact enrichment, prospecting, and KYB/compliance lookups against official government registries.

Hosted at https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP). Nothing to install or run — you connect to it and sign in with your Global Database API key through the browser.

Install

Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (per project):

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "global-database": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp"    }  }}

Claude Code

bash
claude mcp add --transport http global-database https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp

Or install the plugin, which adds the server and three skills (company-due-diligence, company-snapshot, prospect-list):

/plugin marketplace add global-database/mcp-server/plugin install global-database@global-database

VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

Use the Install server badge above, or add it from the terminal:

bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"global-database","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp"}'

To commit it for a whole repository instead, put this in .vscode/mcp.json — the copy in this repo is exactly that file, so cloning it and opening the folder in VS Code offers the server without any further setup:

json
{  "servers": {    "global-database": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp"    }  }}

Note the key is servers, not mcpServers. VS Code differs from Claude Code and Cursor here, the same way Gemini CLI expects httpUrl and Antigravity expects serverUrl for the identical endpoint. Copying the wrong file between clients produces a config that loads without error and connects to nothing.

A user-level equivalent exists too — run MCP: Open User Configuration from the Command Palette (it lives under the VS Code user profile, not ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json — that path belongs to the separate GitHub Copilot CLI and expects mcpServers, not servers).

Signing in is a browser OAuth flow on first use; there is nothing to paste into the config.

Gemini CLI

Install the bundled extension straight from this repo:

bash
gemini extensions install https://github.com/global-database/mcp-server

Or add the server to settings.json by hand:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "global-database": {      "httpUrl": "https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp",      "authProviderType": "dynamic_discovery"    }  }}

Perplexity

Requires a paid plan (custom connectors are a Pro/Enterprise feature). In Settings → Connectors → + Custom connector → Remote, enter:

FieldValue
NameGlobal Database
MCP Server URLhttps://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp
AuthenticationOAuth
TransportStreamable HTTP

Then open the connector card to run the OAuth sign-in.

Grok

At grok.com/connectors → New Connector → Custom, enter the MCP server URL https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp and complete the OAuth sign-in. Grok discovers the tools from the live endpoint.

Microsoft Copilot Studio

In your agent → Tools → Add a tool → Model Context Protocol → New MCP server, enter the server URL https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp and pick OAuth 2.0 with dynamic registration / discovery. Leave Scope empty — the server publishes no scopes, and a non-empty one fails the token request.

Copilot Studio ignores the MCP instructions field, so the agent starts without the routing rules every other client receives. Paste copilot-studio-instructions.md into Agent → Overview → Instructions after the connection is created.

Claude.ai / other MCP clients

Add a custom connector pointing at https://mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp.

Authentication

OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and Dynamic Client Registration — the client registers itself, so there is nothing to configure. On first connect your browser opens a Global Database login page where you paste your API key; the key is held in the access-token claims server-side and is never passed as a tool argument.

Get an API key at globaldatabase.com.

Resources and prompts

Beyond tools, the server exposes MCP resources so a client can load reference data once per conversation instead of spending a tool call (and credits) on it:

ResourceContents
gdb://nomenclature/countryCountry list for the prospecting location filter.
gdb://nomenclature/kyb-countriesCountry list for kyb_search.
gdb://nomenclature/company-statusCompany status values for prospecting.
gdb://nomenclature/departmentDepartment ids for search_employees.
gdb://nomenclature/senioritySeniority ids for search_employees.
gdb://docs/prospecting-filtersFull prospecting filter catalog — field names and value formats.
gdb://docs/intent-glossaryKeyword → tool glossary for routing a request.

Larger, hierarchical nomenclatures (NACE, ISIC, SIC, industry focus, region) stay behind the get_nomenclature tool and its search parameter.

Prompts shipped with the server: company_research, due_diligence, lead_generation, competitor_analysis, market_research.

Plugins and skill

The same contents ship as a plugin for both Cursor (.cursor-plugin/plugin.json) and Claude Code (.claude-plugin/marketplace.json), so the server can be installed from a marketplace instead of being wired up by hand. Each plugin bundles:

  • the remote MCP server above (all tools), and
  • three skills: company-due-diligence walks the agent through a structured KYB review — resolve the entity, then pull registry details, officers, shareholders, group structure and financials into one dossier; company-snapshot gives a fast one-screen profile instead of the full dossier; prospect-list builds a target account list from firmographic filters, optionally enriched with contacts.

Not listed: PulseMCP (their submissions are paused), mcp.so, and the VS Code / GitHub MCP gallery — that last one is a curated catalogue of a few hundred servers and is not an ingest of the Official MCP Registry, so publishing there does not reach it. Also not pursued: Perplexity's curated connector catalog (no self-serve submission exists — only the custom-connector route above) and Microsoft's MCP server certification for Copilot Studio (a real Partner Center pipeline, unlike Perplexity's — see PUBLISHING.md).

Maintainer notes — publishing, DNS verification and the remaining directories: PUBLISHING.md.

About this repository

Distribution metadata only (server.json, .mcp.json, plugin.json, .claude-plugin/, .cursor-plugin/, gemini-extension.json) so MCP directories and clients can discover the hosted server, plus the client-side extras that ship with it — the three skills and the Copilot Studio instruction block. MIT covers this metadata; the server implementation and the Global Database API are not open source.
