Mapbox MCP Server
⚠ No independent security audit: entries summarize official sources only. Review permissions and code before installing.
- Type
- MCP server
- Tasks
- Build AI appsUtilities
- Compatible agents
- Claude Code, Claude Desktop, VS Code, Cursor, Codex, ChatGPT, Goose (source: clients in Mapbox's official docs (docs.mapbox.com/location-ai) and setup guides in the mapbox/mcp-server repo)
- Verdict
- Pick it when you build location features (geocoding, routing, isochrones, maps) and want the agent to test real Mapbox calls; use a scoped token and watch API usage.
- Permissions
- Calls Mapbox APIs with your account: geocoding and POI/category search, directions, travel-time matrices, route optimization, map matching, isochrones, static map images and an interactive map renderer (render_map_tool), plus offline geospatial calculations (distance, area, buffers). Read-only toward your data; API calls count against your Mapbox usage and pricing.
- Credentials
- Mapbox account via OAuth on the hosted endpoint, or a Mapbox access token (Bearer header on the hosted server, MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN for the local npm server).
