Opencage Geocoding — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Opencage Geocoding?

Opencage Geocoding 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 pypi package mcparmory-opencage-geocoding was installed 217 times last week.

How do I connect Opencage Geocoding?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls mcparmory-opencage-geocoding straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Opencage Geocoding?

The pypi package mcparmory-opencage-geocoding was installed 217 times in the last week. Week over week that is +6%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Opencage Geocoding open source?

We cannot say either way: written in Python, 32 stars on GitHub and 2 open issues, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
