This one needs environment variables set before it will start: MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN (Mapbox token for natural-language location search (e.g. 'San Francisco')), OVERPASS_API_URL (Custom Overpass API endpoint URL (defaults rotate between public instances)), MAX_H3_CELLS (Safety cap for H3 grid generation (default: 50000)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Bbox MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Bbox MCP Server?

Bbox MCP Server 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 bbox-mcp-server was installed 63 times last week.

How do I connect Bbox MCP Server?

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 bbox-mcp-server straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Bbox MCP Server?

The npm package bbox-mcp-server was installed 63 times in the last week. Week over week that is -42%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Bbox MCP Server open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 3 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.
