Perplexity

Share the Georef Argentina MCP Server with your team.

The `get_provincias` and `get_departamentos` tools become available to every developer when you commit your `.vscode/mcp.json` file. Your entire engineering team queries the same official government data directly from their editor. No one wastes time looking up province IDs on a wiki. Copilot pulls the exact administrative hierarchy into the chat whenever a developer asks for it.

Normalize user addresses automatically.

The `normalize_direccion` tool inside this MCP Server helps your AI client write strict address parsing logic based on real Argentine formats. You ask Copilot to handle a messy string, and it tests the input against the government API to see the exact structure. The agent writes your backend validation code using the actual JSON schema it receives. It forces your application to respect official street naming conventions.

Map coordinates to physical streets.

You feed a GPS coordinate to the `reverse_geocoding` tool, and Copilot returns the specific street and locality in Argentina. It uses this live response to help you structure your database schema for location tracking. When you need to verify road intersections, the agent calls `get_vias`. It cross-references the coordinates with official street names, allowing you to build accurate routing logic without leaving VS Code.

Setup guide

Prerequisites

VS Code 1.99 or later with GitHub Copilot extension
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and run "MCP: Add Server". Select HTTP (Streamable) as the server type. VS Code will create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace.
2

Add the Georef Argentina MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into your .vscode/mcp.json. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Switch to Agent mode

Common questions about Georef Argentina MCP in VS Code Copilot

Add your server configuration to a `.vscode/mcp.json` file in your repository. Ensure you are running VS Code version 1.96 or higher.

Yes. Commit the configuration file to your Git repository. Every developer opening the project gets instant access to the exact same geographic tools.

The input string might lack enough context for the official API to parse it. Ask Copilot to run `get_localidades` first to confirm the city name is spelled correctly.

No. These tools execute live HTTP requests to the Argentine government servers. You need an active connection for every query.

The raw street strings you provide are sent exclusively to the state-backed Georef API for normalization. Your enterprise codebase remains strictly local, and the server retains zero memory of your address queries.
