Tle Overview

Satellite tracking via the tle MCP server retrieves Two-Line Element data from tle.ivanstanojevic.me without authentication. It provides tools to fetch a satellite by NORAD catalog ID, search by name or keyword, and list high-numbered catalog entries. Use it when an agent needs current satellite names, TLE lines, epoch dates, or a rough view of recently cataloged objects. It can run locally over stdio or through the Pipeworx gateway over MCP and HTTP.

Primary Use Cases for Tle:
  • Fetch TLE data for a satellite by NORAD ID
  • Search the satellite catalog by name or keyword
  • List high-numbered NORAD catalog entries
  • Provide orbital data to an agent workflow
