Global Database MCP server

Global Database — MCP Server

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):

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

Claude Code

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:

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:

{
  "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:

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

Or add the server to settings.json by hand:

{
  "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:

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