Connect Mapbox to your AI agents with the Mapbox MCP server.

What is Mapbox MCP?

The Mapbox MCP server is a Model Context Protocol server that connects Mapbox to AI agents and assistants as a set of tools. With it connected, an agent can work with Mapbox (maps & geospatial — geocoding, directions, navigation, places) directly — instead of you copying data in and out by hand.

It is a remote MCP server that uses OAuth, so you point your client at the server URL, authorize once, and the Mapbox tools become available to the model.

Using Mapbox MCP with Gamut
