Mcp Server
Run geocoding, POI search, directions, and isochrones from your agent while building location features on Mapbox.
Overview
Mapbox MCP Server is a MCP server for the Build phase that exposes Mapbox geospatial APIs such as geocoding, POI search, directions, and isochrones to AI assistants.
What is this MCP server?
- Geocoding, POI search, directions, isochrones, and related Mapbox APIs via MCP
- Hosted remote https://mcp.mapbox.com/mcp and npx @mapbox/mcp-server
- Requires MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN
- Package version 99.0.0-dev per server manifest—verify stability before production
- GitHub: mapbox/mcp-server for updates and issue tracking
- Manifest version 99.0.0-dev
- npm package @mapbox/mcp-server
- Remote: https://mcp.mapbox.com/mcp
What problem does it solve?
Building location features means repeatedly crafting Mapbox REST calls and parsing responses while the agent lacks live geospatial tools.
Who is it for?
Indie builders with a Mapbox token who want Claude Code or Cursor to implement or test geospatial features interactively.
Skip if: India-specific DigiPin or admin-boundary workflows—consider a regional geocoder MCP instead.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Your agent can execute Mapbox location queries in-thread so prototypes and integration code use real coordinates, routes, and reach polygons.
- Agent-invokable Mapbox geospatial API operations
- Faster iteration on location-based features in code and prompts

How it compares
Live Mapbox geospatial API MCP, not a docs-only or India-focused geocoding server.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Mapbox MCP Server for?
Builders and agent authors who need geocoding, routing, POI, and isochrone capabilities from Mapbox inside their coding assistant.
When should I use Mapbox MCP Server?
Use it in Build when you are integrating location search, navigation, or travel-time analysis into your product.
How do I add Mapbox MCP Server to my agent?
Export MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN, register npx @mapbox/mcp-server for stdio, or add remote https://mcp.mapbox.com/mcp in your MCP settings.
