Perplexity

Query launches from the CLI via MCP

`get_recent_space_launches` returns the latest orbital missions straight to standard output. You trigger Claude Code from your terminal, and it pulls the global launch manifest without you touching a browser. Run this in a cron job to monitor new payloads. Your headless agent grabs the launch events daily and pipes the raw JSON into your log aggregation system.

Search orbiters via MCP Server

`search_satellites` finds specific spacecraft based on text arguments. Pass a query like 'Hubble' through your shell script, and the tool returns the exact tracking IDs needed for deeper inspection. You do not need to write custom Python scrapers. The agent executes the search directly from your command line and feeds the resulting IDs into your next pipeline step.

Extract raw satellite telemetry

`get_satellite_details` fetches the hard physics data for a specific orbital object. Your CLI agent takes a satellite ID and pulls the inclination, mass, and orbital period instantly. Use this in your CI/CD pipelines to update static tracking sites. Claude Code hits the tool, formats the trajectory data, and commits the updated JSON files to your repository automatically.

Common questions about KeepTrack Space Intelligence MCP in Claude Code

Run `claude mcp add --transport http keeptrack -- ` in your terminal. Make sure all flags come before the server name. Verify the connection with `claude mcp list`.

Yes. You can execute the telemetry tools inside a Docker container or GitHub Action. The agent runs the tools automatically based on your pipeline triggers.

The tools return raw JSON payloads. Your terminal agent can pipe this data into jq, write it to local files, or pass it directly to other command-line utilities.

The tool fetches the most recent global launch events. It does not pull historical archives from decades ago, focusing strictly on current operational missions.

The server cannot access your local shell environment. It only receives the exact search strings you provide for the satellite or launch query. Vinkius handles the execution in an isolated sandbox, ensuring your AWS keys and local secrets never leave your machine.
