Overview

What is Mapbox MCP Server?

Mapbox MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that integrates with the Mapbox API to provide navigation and geocoding tools. It is designed for AI assistants like Claude to enable route planning, travel time matrices, and place search through natural language interactions.

How to use Mapbox MCP Server?

Install Node.js 16+, TypeScript 4.5+, and obtain a Mapbox API key. Add the server configuration to your Claude Desktop config file (claude_desktop_config.json) with the command node, an absolute path to the built server, and the MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable. Then invoke tools like mapbox_directions, mapbox_matrix, or mapbox_geocoding with the required parameters.
