About
World-reference data (taxonomy, OBO terms, nutrition, observations, Wikidata alignment) MCP server and agent-connector-sdk source adapters
README
Version: 0.3.0
World-reference data — organism taxonomy, OBO reference terms, food/nutrition
composition, organism and weather observations, and Wikidata alignment — as an
MCP tool surface and, through agent-connector-sdk's declarative mcp_tool
source adapter, as bounded, checkpointed ingestion streams onto the
epistemic-graph world_model ontology (feat/world-model-ontology).
Sources
| Ledger row | Sources | Target class |
|---|---|---|
| EH-358 (taxonomy) | NCBI Taxonomy (E-utilities), GBIF backbone | Taxon |
| EH-359 (reference terms) | EBI OLS4 (GO, UBERON, ENVO, PATO, ChEBI, FoodOn) | BiologicalProcessTerm, AnatomyTerm, EnvironmentTerm, QualityTerm, ChemicalEntityTerm, FoodTerm |
| EH-360 (nutrition) | USDA FoodData Central | FoodCompositionRecord |
| EH-361 (observations) | GBIF occurrences, iNaturalist, Open-Meteo, NOAA GHCND | OrganismObservation, WeatherObservation |
| EH-362 (alignment) | Wikidata SPARQL | wikidataId / skos:exactMatch keys for Taxon, ChemicalEntityTerm, Country |
Tools
Nine MCP tools, one FastMCP server (world-reference-mcp console script):
taxonomy_ncbi_search, taxonomy_gbif_search, reference_term_list,
fdc_food_search, gbif_occurrence_search, inaturalist_observation_search,
open_meteo_weather_observation, noaa_ghcnd_daily, wikidata_alignment_search.
Every tool is keyless except fdc_food_search and noaa_ghcnd_daily, whose
credentials are resolved server-side through agent_connector_sdk.credentials
(WORLD_REFERENCE_FDC_API_KEY, WORLD_REFERENCE_NOAA_TOKEN) — never accepted
as a tool argument.
See AGENTS.md for architecture, the ontology-mapping authority, rate limits, and commands.
