Nigeria MCP — Nigerian data for AI agents
A Braynex Services Ltd product. Author: Samuel Orie. License: MIT.
Clean, normalized Nigerian business & local data exposed to AI agents (Claude, Cursor, custom agents) as MCP tools — one server per data source, each behind a typed provider seam.
Status: 4 servers LIVE on npm + the official MCP Registry. Every server runs offline on a mock provider with zero signup; live data is one env var.
Products
| Server | npm | Tools | Live source | Key? |
|---|
| Trade Intel | @braynexservices/nigeria-mcp-trade-intel | get_trade_stats · classify_hs | UN Comtrade | none |
| FX Rates | @braynexservices/nigeria-mcp-fx-rates | get_fx_rates | open.er-api.com | none |
| Bank Resolve | @braynexservices/nigeria-mcp-bank-account | resolve_bank_account · list_banks | Paystack | free key |
| Electricity Meter | @braynexservices/nigeria-mcp-electricity | validate_meter · list_discos | VTpass (read-only) | free key |
- Trade Intel — Nigeria import/export statistics by partner, commodity and year, annual or monthly, with USD value (plus CIF/FOB), net weight and quantity, and commodity breakdowns. Plus HS-code classification.
- FX Rates — live Naira rates against USD, EUR and GBP.
- Bank Resolve — resolve a 10-digit NUBAN + bank code to the registered account name; list banks with their codes.
- Electricity Meter — read-only meter validation (customer name/address + DisCo) and the DisCo list. No payments.
Each server's README has full tool docs, examples and a copy-paste config: see lanes/<server>/README.md.
Real-world applications: USE_CASES.md.
Install
One click (Claude Desktop)
Download a bundle from the latest release and double-click it. No terminal, no clone — the bundle carries everything it needs, and the keyed servers prompt you for the free API key during install (leave it blank to run on offline mock data).
Or via npx (any MCP client)
No clone needed (Node.js ≥ 20). Add to your MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"nigeria-trade-intel": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@braynexservices/nigeria-mcp-trade-intel"],
"env": { "TRADE_PROVIDER": "opendata" }
},
"nigeria-fx-rates": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@braynexservices/nigeria-mcp-fx-rates"],
"env": { "FX_PROVIDER": "free" }
}
}
}
Then ask: "What were Nigeria's top crude-oil export partners in 2023?" or "What's the dollar to naira rate right now?"
The keyed servers take their credentials the same way — see lanes/bank-account/README.md (free Paystack key) and lanes/electricity/README.md (free VTpass keys). Omit the env block entirely and every server runs on offline mock data.

How it works
| Path | What it is |
|---|
shared/ | Core library — buildServer, normalized Zod schemas, the typed provider seam, fetchJson (timeout + jittered retry), cache + error helpers. |
lanes/<server>/ | One MCP server per data source — a mock provider (default) plus the live adapter, tools, and smoke/live tests. |
eval/ | Cross-server eval harness (npm run eval). |
Tools never call a provider directly: they depend on a typed interface, so selecting a provider is one env var and adding one is one file. Identity data (account names, meter customer details) is pass-through only — never cached, never logged; API keys travel in headers, never in URLs.
