概览

What is Get My Location?

Get My Location is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that obtains a user’s precise geographic location by opening a browser for manual permission authorization. It is designed for AI assistants or applications that need real‑time latitude/longitude coordinates, works cross‑platform (Windows, macOS, Linux), and communicates via stdio.

How to use Get My Location?

Install the server by running npx -y @mcpcn/mcp-get-location and add it to your MCP client’s configuration under the mcpServers key. No environment variables are required. After configuration, call the get_location tool – the server will automatically open a browser, ask you to grant location permission, poll for the position for up to 60 seconds, and return the coordinates.

FAQ from Get My Location

What tool does Get My Location expose?

It exposes a single tool called get_location, which takes no parameters and returns latitude and longitude.

Does the server need an internet connection?

Yes. A network connection is required to access the browser geolocation service and to communicate with external APIs during the polling process.

How long does the server wait for a location?

It polls for up to 60 seconds. If the user does not grant permission or no location is obtained within that time, a timeout error is returned.

What runtime or dependencies are needed?

You need Node.js (npx) and a modern web browser. The server itself is a TypeScript package published on npm and uses MCP SDK 1.12.0.

How is the location data transported and authenticated?

The server communicates via stdio (standard input/output) with the MCP host. Authentication is handled entirely by the browser’s built‑in geolocation permission prompt – no additional credentials are needed.
