Nigeria Postcode MCP Server

local only

Nigeria Postcode runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 1 473 installs a week from pypi. Last commit 14 Oct 2026.

Validate, look up and resolve addresses to Nigeria's NIPOST digital postcodes (NDAPS).

What the code does

We read the source, 1 d ago · rules ccca72095570

Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs an external command mcp/bundle-python/server/main.py:22
sys.exit(subprocess.call([uvx, PACKAGE]))
In the project's build, not in the package

Found in continuous integration, deployment or infrastructure files, or in a neighbouring package of the same monorepo. None of this is installed when you add the server: it describes how the project is built and released. We list it because a leaked key in a build pipeline is still a real problem, but it is not something this server does on your machine.

Builds a database query by concatenation native/pg/src/lib.rs:318
             INSERT INTO b SELECT ng_postcode_parse(chr(65 + i % 26) || chr(65 + (i / 26) % 26)

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add ng-postcode -- npx -y ng-postcode-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ng-postcode": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "ng-postcode-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "ng-postcode-mcp"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ng-postcode": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "ng-postcode-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ng-postcode": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "ng-postcode-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: NG_POSTCODE_API_KEY (NIPOST Postcode API key from dashboard.postcode.gov.ng. Validation works without it.), NG_POSTCODE_MAX_LEVEL (Highest lookup level tools may request. Levels 2 and up consume NIPOST credits.), NG_POSTCODE_MAX_PAID_CALLS (How many paid lookups one run of the server may make with its own key.), NG_POSTCODE_BASE_URL (Alternative API host, such as a staging stack.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Nigeria Postcode — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Nigeria Postcode?
Nigeria Postcode runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package ng-postcode-mcp was installed 1 473 times last week.
How do I connect Nigeria Postcode?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls ng-postcode-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Nigeria Postcode?
The npm package ng-postcode-mcp was installed 1 473 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Nigeria Postcode open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 4 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
