Geoserver MCP Overview

mahdin75/geoserver-mcp MCP server connects MCP-compatible AI clients to a running GeoServer instance through its REST API. It exposes operations for workspaces, stores, layers, styles, users, feature types, and service configuration, along with spatial queries and map visualization capabilities. The Python package runs locally through pip, Docker, or a client configuration, while a separate GeoServer extension targets GeoServer 2.28.x and provides an MCP endpoint. Reach for it when an agent needs to inspect or manage GeoServer resources rather than only read geospatial files.
