GISGP MCP Server

Free remote MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for GIS/ArcGIS Online automation.

Endpoint: `https://gisgp.com/mcp` (Streamable HTTP, stateless, no auth for public layers)

Client config

{ "mcpServers": { "gisgp": { "url": "https://gisgp.com/mcp" } } }

Local/stdio server (open-source subset)

`server.py` is a self-contained, open-source MCP server (stdio transport)

implementing the format-conversion and geometry tools that need no external

service access — no ArcGIS Online credentials, no network calls. Build and

run it with the included `Dockerfile`:

docker build -t gisgp-mcp .
docker run -i --rm gisgp-mcp

{ "mcpServers": { "gisgp-local": { "command": "docker", "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "gisgp-mcp"] } } }

The tools that inspect/query a live ArcGIS Online FeatureServer

(`count_features`, `extract_domains`, `check_field_types`,

`check_service_health`, `rest_explore`, `compare_schemas`, `query_features`,

`query_statistics`) require a real AGOL connection and stay on the hosted

remote endpoint above — they are not part of this local server.

Hosted QA tools (hosted endpoint only)

The hosted server at `https://gisgp.com/mcp` also exposes ArcGIS Online QA tools that

need a live AGOL connection and can't run in this local/stdio server:

Also hosted-only: `get_terrain_profile`, `get_climate_history`, `classify_land_cover`,

`analyze_location` — free geo primitives backed by third-party open-data APIs

(Open-Meteo, ESA CCI Land Cover, OSM Nominatim), kept on the hosted endpoint rather

than this offline server since they need outbound internet access to those services.

Layer 2 — paid tools (hosted endpoint only)

These require live infrastructure (ArcGIS/S3, DynamoDB credits wallet, or third-party

APIs) and are not part of the open-source subset below — everything below runs fully

offline.

Tools

40 tools in this local/offline server subset (see the hosted-only sections

above for the full 92-tool catalog including AGOL QA/query tools and Layer 2

paid tools).
