Openchargemap MCP Server

Find EV charging stations from the global Open Charge Map registry near a point or within a bounding box. Provide either a center (latitude + longitude + distance) or a boundingbox; optionally scope to a country with countrycode. This tool is coordinate-native and does not geocode place names — resolve a place like "Ballard, Seattle" to coordinates with openstreetmap_search_places first, then pass them here. Filter by connector type, minimum power (kW), operator/network, usage type (public/free/membership), charge level, operational status, and minimum charge points. Filter IDs are integers — resolve a connector or network name to its IDs with openchargemap_lookup_reference and pass every returned ID (e.g. "CCS" -> [32, 33]; Open Charge Map distinguishes CCS Type 1 (32, common in North America) and Type 2 (33, common in Europe); 33 alone can miss Type 1 stations). Each result includes title, address, distance from the search point, connections (type, power, count), operator, access rules, registry operational status, and the last-verified date. Results come back one page at a time: when a page reports truncated, repeat the same search with the reported nextOffset to read the next one.

Get the full record for one Open Charge Map station by its numeric OCM ID. Returns every connection (type, level, power, current, quantity, per-connection status), the operator and network, usage and access restrictions (pay-at-location, membership, access key), the number of charge points, general comments, usage cost, the data provider, media, and verification recency. Set includeComments to also return community check-ins inline.

Read community check-ins and comments for one Open Charge Map station — the real-world reliability signal beyond the operator-reported registry status. Returns user comments and fault reports with ratings, dates, and the outcome the driver recorded ("Charged Successfully", "Failed to Charge (Equipment Not Operational)", …), alongside the station's current registry status and last-verified date, surfacing mismatches like "listed operational, but the last few check-ins report a fault." A busy station's check-ins come back one page at a time: when a page reports truncated, repeat the call with the reported nextOffset to read the next one.

Resolve Open Charge Map reference data to the integer IDs that openchargemap_find_stations filters require. Pick a category and pass a name or code to resolve — "CCS" or "Tesla Supercharger" -> a connectiontypeid, "ChargePoint" -> an operatorid, "Public - Pay At Location" -> a usagetypeid, "France" or "FR" -> a country. A connector name can resolve to several regional variants ("CCS" matches CCS Type 2 = 33 and CCS Type 1 = 32, the North American form) — pass every returned ID to find_stations as an array, not just the first. Omit the query to browse the whole category. Large categories come back one page at a time: when a page reports truncated, repeat the call with the reported nextOffset to read the next one.
