The @anshumax/world_bank_mcp_server was removed from the Smithery registry, causing a 404 "Server not found" error that failed the agent job. Removed world-bank MCP server references from: - All 10 agentic workflow .md source files - All 10 agentic workflow .lock.yml compiled files - .github/copilot-mcp.json configuration World Bank economic context data remains available via scripts/world-bank-context.ts for reference use in article generation.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the repository’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) configuration so agentic news workflows use locally-run stdio MCP servers for SCB and World Bank data instead of relying on previously used/dead HTTP endpoints.

Changes:

Switch SCB MCP from hosted HTTP to local stdio via @jarib/pxweb-mcp@2.0.0 (PxWeb v2).
Add World Bank MCP as local stdio via worldbank-mcp@1.0.1 and update workflows/allowlists accordingly.
Expand integration tests to validate the new MCP configuration across all news workflows.

+The **scb** MCP server provides official Swedish statistics via PxWeb v2 API tools: `search_tables`, `get_table_info`, `fetch_metadata`, `query_table`, `get_code_list`, `list_recent_tables`.
+Use SCB data for domestic context: labour market, migration, GDP, crime, housing, education, taxation, culture.
 Full domain-to-committee mapping in `scripts/scb-context.ts` (15 domains → all 15 Riksdag committees).
+**Note**: Language parameter accepts "en" (English) only. Table IDs from `scripts/scb-context.ts` work directly.


In this workflow you document the SCB MCP toolset as search_tables, get_table_info, fetch_metadata, query_table, etc., but later in the same file the “SCB statistical enrichment” examples still reference the older get_table_data / get_table_variables tool names. This inconsistency is likely to cause the agent to call non-existent tools depending on which section it follows. Please update the later SCB enrichment section/examples to match the tool names used by the configured @jarib/pxweb-mcp@2.0.0 server (or revert this tool list if the server actually supports the older names).

The **scb** MCP server provides official Swedish statistics via the PxWeb v2 API with these tools (current `@jarib/pxweb-mcp@2.0.0` interface): `search_tables`, `get_table_info`, `fetch_metadata`, `query_table`, `get_code_list`, `list_recent_tables`.

Use SCB data for domestic context: labour market, migration, GDP, crime, housing, education, taxation, culture.

**Note**: Language parameter accepts "en" (English) only. Table IDs from `scripts/scb-context.ts` work directly.

**Important**: Some older examples may mention deprecated tools `get_table_data` or `get_table_variables`. When you see those names, interpret them as follows and ONLY call the current tools: use `query_table` instead of `get_table_data`, and use `fetch_metadata` or `get_table_info` instead of `get_table_variables`. Do not attempt to call `get_table_data` or `get_table_variables` directly, as they are not available in `@jarib/pxweb-mcp@2.0.0`.

Applied in cf39497. Updated all deprecated SCB tool names across 3 workflow files:

get_table_data → query_table (with PxWeb v2 param style: table_id/value_codes instead of tableId/selection)
get_table_variables / preview_data / find_region_code → removed from tool list, replaced with current @jarib/pxweb-mcp@2.0.0 tools
Added deprecation note in the SCB documentation section so the agent knows to map old names to current tools if it encounters them elsewhere

+Use country code `SE` for Sweden, `DK` for Denmark, `NO` for Norway, `FI` for Finland, `DE` for Germany.
+Key indicators: GDP_GROWTH, UNEMPLOYMENT, INFLATION, HEALTH_EXPENDITURE, EDUCATION_EXPENDITURE.
+Committee-mapped indicators and policy area context in `scripts/world-bank-context.ts`.


This World Bank MCP documentation lists country codes SE/DK/NO/FI/DE and indicator labels like GDP_GROWTH, but the repo’s World Bank context/client uses ISO alpha-3 codes (SWE/DNK/NOR/FIN/DEU) and concrete indicator IDs (e.g., NY.GDP.MKTP.KD.ZG) via INDICATOR_IDS in scripts/world-bank-client.ts. To avoid failed tool calls / confusion in agent runs, please update this section to use the same country-code convention and indicator identifiers as the rest of the codebase (or explicitly document the exact format required by worldbank-mcp if it differs).

Suggested change

Use country code `SE` for Sweden, `DK` for Denmark, `NO` for Norway, `FI` for Finland, `DE` for Germany.

Key indicators: GDP_GROWTH, UNEMPLOYMENT, INFLATION, HEALTH_EXPENDITURE, EDUCATION_EXPENDITURE.

Committee-mapped indicators and policy area context in `scripts/world-bank-context.ts`.

Use ISO alpha-3 country codes: `SWE` for Sweden, `DNK` for Denmark, `NOR` for Norway, `FIN` for Finland, `DEU` for Germany.

Key indicators (World Bank IDs used by the client): `NY.GDP.MKTP.KD.ZG` (GDP growth), `SL.UEM.TOTL.ZS` (unemployment rate), `FP.CPI.TOTL.ZG` (inflation, CPI), `SH.XPD.CHEX.GD.ZS` (current health expenditure, % of GDP), `SE.XPD.TOTL.GD.ZS` (education expenditure, % of GDP).

These indicator IDs and committee/policy-area mappings are defined in `scripts/world-bank-client.ts` (`INDICATOR_IDS`) and `scripts/world-bank-context.ts`.

+Key indicators: GDP_GROWTH, UNEMPLOYMENT, INFLATION, HEALTH_EXPENDITURE, EDUCATION_EXPENDITURE.
+Committee-mapped indicators and policy area context in `scripts/world-bank-context.ts`.

 **Key committee-mapped indicators**: GDP Growth→FiU, Unemployment→AU, Tax Revenue→SkU, Rule of Law→KU, Military Expenditure→FöU, CO₂→MJU, R&D→UbU, GINI→SoU/AU, Trade→NU/UU (see `scripts/world-bank-context.ts` for complete mapping of 14 indicators to all 15 committees).


World Bank country codes and indicator identifiers in this section don't match the repository’s World Bank client/context. The codebase uses ISO alpha-3 country codes (e.g., SWE/DNK/NOR/FIN/DEU) and explicit indicator IDs like NY.GDP.MKTP.KD.ZG (see scripts/world-bank-client.ts), while this text mentions SE, DK, etc. and pseudo-IDs like GDP_GROWTH. Please align the documented country codes/indicator names with what the code actually uses (or clearly state the exact format expected by the worldbank-mcp tools if it differs).

Suggested change

Use country code `SE` for Sweden, `DK` for Denmark, `NO` for Norway, `FI` for Finland, `DE` for Germany.

Key indicators: GDP_GROWTH, UNEMPLOYMENT, INFLATION, HEALTH_EXPENDITURE, EDUCATION_EXPENDITURE.

**Key committee-mapped indicators**: GDP Growth→FiU, Unemployment→AU, Tax Revenue→SkU, Rule of Law→KU, Military Expenditure→FöU, CO₂→MJU, R&D→UbU, GINI→SoU/AU, Trade→NU/UU (see `scripts/world-bank-context.ts` for complete mapping of 14 indicators to all 15 committees).

Use ISO alpha-3 country codes consistent with `scripts/world-bank-client.ts`: `SWE` for Sweden, `DNK` for Denmark, `NOR` for Norway, `FIN` for Finland, `DEU` for Germany.

Key indicators use official World Bank indicator IDs, for example: GDP growth (annual %) `NY.GDP.MKTP.KD.ZG`, unemployment (% of total labor force) `SL.UEM.TOTL.ZS`, inflation (consumer prices, annual %) `FP.CPI.TOTL.ZG`, current health expenditure (% of GDP) `SH.XPD.CHEX.GD.ZS`, government expenditure on education (% of GDP) `SE.XPD.TOTL.GD.ZS`.

Committee-mapped indicators and policy area context (using these ISO alpha-3 codes and indicator IDs) are defined in `scripts/world-bank-context.ts`.

**Key committee-mapped indicators** (see `scripts/world-bank-context.ts` for the exact IDs and complete mapping of 14 indicators to all 15 committees): GDP growth→FiU, Unemployment→AU, Tax Revenue→SkU, Rule of Law→KU, Military Expenditure→FöU, CO₂→MJU, R&D→UbU, GINI→SoU/AU, Trade→NU/UU.
