MapIron MCP
MapIron (https://mapiron.com) is a map API built on OpenStreetMap data, with a free plan and flat paid plans. It provides static map images, including a privacy-area mode, geocoding, and tiles. This repository provides a small stdio-to-HTTP bridge for MCP clients that can only launch local servers.
MCP Registry: com.mapiron/maps
MapIron was called PinSharing until November 2026. Old configs keep working: see Upgrading from PinSharing.
Most clients: use the hosted server directly
The hosted MCP server is available at:
https://api.mapiron.com/v1/mcp
See https://mapiron.com/docs/mcp for setup. With Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http mapiron https://api.mapiron.com/v1/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"
Clients that only run local servers (stdio)
Some clients, such as Claude Desktop with claude_desktop_config.json, can only launch local stdio MCP servers. For those, use this bridge.
