Provides AI assistants with direct access to Mapbox developer APIs and documentation.
MCP MCP server is a hosted integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. Provides AI assistants with direct access to Mapbox developer APIs and documentation.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI assistants with direct access to Mapbox developer APIs. This server enables AI models to interact with Mapbox services, helping developers build Mapbox applications more efficiently.
Being a remote server, there is no local install. You register the endpoint with your client, authorise it once, and the tools appear.
Once MCP is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
Input — limit (optional - max number of styles), start (optional - pagination token)Returns — Array of style metadata with optional pagination infoNote — This tool automatically fetches the first available public token from your account for the preview URL. Requires at least one public token withListStylesTool — Requires styles:list scopeCreateStyleTool — Requires styles:write scopeRetrieveStyleTool — Requires styles:download scopeUpdateStyleTool — Requires styles:write scopeDeleteStyleTool — Requires styles:write scopePreviewStyleTool — Requires tokens:read scope (to list tokens) and at least one public token with styles:read scopecompare_styles_tool — Compares two Mapbox styles and reports structural differences, including changes to layers, sources, and properties. This offline comparison toolYou will need one environment variable: MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Plenty of planning and project tracking servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. MCP's toolset — Input, Returns, Note and 7 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by mapbox; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
